PLEASE change the clothes more often. If your inventory is going to hang around for months on end, this credit card
Doesn't make much sense. I don't use it because the clothes never change! Once you visit, why go back?

Frumpy Jill
October 18, 2019

I have always loved JJill for years for their cool clothes that had a fresh fun style. Definitely a young but classy boho vibe. My three favorite blouses were silk- one pale green with Johnny Was style floral embroidery, one beautiful white on white Mexican tunic and a a textured cream tunic where the fabric was made of flowered cloth. They were expensive but so cool.
And now there is a generic looking very frumpy line. Even their timeless linen Sumer pants and camp shirts (a staple for me) are gone.
I have held onto 2 gift cards ( birthday) for two years and can't find one thing to invest in.
Please, JJill, turn it back around.

Rude staff

Rude staff, my Mother is still talking about How rude the sales woman was.It would be very difficult for her to go back to the store after such a negative experience. Saturday morning at 1030 on 1/05/2019

I would not recommend purchasing online from this store. An order arrived three weeks later than expected and after two phone calls to the office. It seems the clothes run large, i returned a down puffer vest for exchange and regret doing so. It has been over month and no sign of the replacement nor confirmation email of the exchange. The customer rep behaved as if it were my fault for the delay, maybe he was having a hard day, either way this was not a pleasant experience. Will not be shopping here again.

Now that I'm retired, I pick and choose my purchases according to budget.
Let it be said I still have a walk-in closet only full of current J. Jill clothing. No, I do not have a relative or friend sneaking me a "heads up" on sales or discounts.
Though let it be said:
My previous working life, the price of J. Jill clothing was secondary to maintaining and continuing to be an example of proper business casual attire. It was absolutely imperative, in my position, to look well put together. Because of my petite size and particular body habitus (under 5' and 10+ lbs over the average model size) J. Jill brand was consistently my "Go To".

I AM a verified buyer for over 20 years as my account with J. Jill can substantiate.

I tried to order a pair of shoes online and struggled with their system. Today, I called and spoke to a extremely rude customer service individual to ask why my order was an issue only to find out that they don't give discounts on name brand shoes. I've ordered many, many things over the years from J. Jill and have recently notice that the items I receive are no longer of good quality. J. Jill doesn't reward long time loyal customers with discounts. I will no longer do business with them. Their styles are the same and lack originality. Poor customer service! I'll take my business elsewhere thank you.

Staff is amazing
December 15, 2021

Every time I walk in to a JJill store, all the ladies working there are so very helpful and happy. They will get you different sizes or colors. I went in the Syracuse NY store and Patty V and Laura were amazing. They are jovial with each other and with the customers. You are happy going in there. They are fantastic. Can't wait to come back.

Excellent service
February 28, 2017

Somedays ago, I bought a sofa set from 1stopbedrooms and it is totally good one and i feel good by using this. This is nice design and good quality. I think this is best e-commerce shop. I purchased some furniture from 1stopbedrooms and I was satisfied. Customer service was good and they deliver very quickly without any problems. Stuff are so helpful.The furniture designs and colors are awesome.

Mean Girls USA
December 7, 2018

Worked for a good manager. The staff was very influenced by one of the Meanest Woman I ever met, certain employees do whatever they want! Rules are all over the board. I was told in the beginning by a seasoned staff member to offer "sale prices" to everyone. Do not lose a sale. When you have an immature " woman" who chose to continue to harass me no matter how much I tried to explain the " horrific situation". I am sure they won't post this, due to the Truth never wants to be exposed. It will affect the business eventually.

Yesterday at Friday, May 28,8:30 pm I placed an order. At 9:39 pm, May 28, I received an order confirmation and was advised I would receive an shipping. Confirmation "soon". Have not received one yet.

I called today May 29 at 6:30 pm to cancel the order (less than 24 hours since I placed the original order).
Apparently it is impossible to stop shipment since it has left New Hampshire. Where it will go from there I have no idea.
Only know deliver date is June 8th. Customer service mgr said "Oh, sometimes they ship earlier…"
-This is very deceptive. I only wish I had read reviews before ordering. My mistake!
-Only 2.5 stars out of 5.
-Out of 74 reviews 22% were poor and a whopping 49% were just flat out bad. NEVER AGAIN.

Too many negatives!
July 31, 2019

I have really tried to like the clothes, but every time I buy something, it either looks terrible after washing, or the sizing is off. I have tried on a size small in the store, which was a little small, then ordered a medium online, which was huge. I have returned so many things because of these issues. They are also poorly made ( I sew so I know what it should look like). Their prices are ridiculously high for the quality. I also bought 2 different ponchos online this week, but returned them both because I could barely get them over my head.
Very disappointed!

I love J. Jill clothes, I have had a very good experience shopping in their brick & mortar shops, but returning purchases online is ridiculous! They wait at least 3 weeks to get and apply your return, then you have to wait until the next billing cycle to get the return. If you don't want a credit, which I don't, I want my money returned, then you're waiting probably upwards of 7 weeks. I won't be ordering online from them any more. (And by the way, I found "Carolyn" the service rep to be condescending.)

I have been a customer for over 20 years up until today. I've finally decided they are not up to date in quality nor style selection in merchandise. Shipping is slow (compared to competitors) and Customer Service is very poor, they will not accommodate you in any way.
You pay a lot of money for cheap clothing and the cost and wait for shipping is crazy. I am no longer a customer. For petite' and online shopping I recommend Macy's, Nordstrom, and Ann Taylor, they're great all around. NOT J. JILL

I used to be able to buy career clothes from J Jill which would keep looking good all day. Not any longer. Poor quality clothes don't look good for a professional office. Styles are being made for younger shoppers and this is not Whois buying J Jill. Please wake up and get a different designer!

I will never ever shop at this store again. I hope they go out of business. Order online line so you you can use the US mail as a fitting room. Take it back to the store and wait in line for 24 minutes because only 1 person can do returns. Then 1 day past the 90 return and forget it. They know their merchandise is crap and don't want it back. I threw over $150.00 of their crap in the floor and walked out. They can have it. Or shove it where the sun does not shine. Back to Nordstrom.

Declining
May 18, 2020

I have been buying J. Jill clothes for 20 plus years. I still have some of those first purchases. The quality has gone downhill in a big way. The sizing is also quite inconsistent now. Please bring back the quality!

I am a long time customer of J Jill. But in the recent time this store has done everything possible to earn my disrespect. It is quite shocking. They sent me a bill for $2.00 (I am not kidding) and I called them and their answer about the $2.00 was vague at best. (Not a late fee and I have paid on time every time.) I paid it but will never use their credit card again. Their store is cramped and small and it appears they do not care about their customers at all. Ugh. I have been happy with the clothes but the corporate policy is horrible.

I ordered a down coat. The coat was huge in size an inferior quality.

I returned using the pre printed return label.

They sent me a refund minus $15.00. They said I was charged for the original shipping and for the return shipping.
This is unheard of. Buyer beware! I will never ever shop there again and plan to tell this story on line any and everywhere I can. It feels like they stole $15.00 from me.

I ordered online pants that did not fit. I went into the store to exchange. They do not reimburse for shipping or tax. I would not recommend anyone buy from the store because they take your money. I am so disgusted with them right now. So out of a $75 gift cards I only spent $60 on merchandise. The rest of it was on shipping and taxes which I do not get a refund on.
