Je me pose des questions sur le serieux de cette entreprise

I just heard build a bear when it build a little girl a Charlie Kirk bear. Shane on them

Expérience très décevante
Nous avons commandé un nounours le 30 août nous sommes aujourd'hui le 6 octobre et nous ne l'avons toujours pas reçu. Après plusieurs échanges avec le vendeur qui nous dit toujours la même chose que son colis est en transit. Je pense que nous nous sommes faits avoir de 69,95 € je déconseille ce site c'est de l'arnaque

Employee won't give child her bear because she wanted to name it Charlie Kirk. They held the bear. Unfortunately all my bears are now donated because of this,I don't want them in my house and my children will never experience them. That's okay ⭐️

In their store. Didn’t let me make a Charlie Kirk bear

They are way to high priced and their customer service is terrible. They are not invested in a positive customer interaction.

Livraison longue mauvais ébavurage et plan non explicite......

I ordered 4 items as an online order (Australia) on 17 Jul 2025. As of today 26 Aug 25, I have not received any of my order. Instead I have had a very frustrating experience as a 1st time buyer of build a bear.
-All items were available at time of online order
-2 days after ordering they email to tell me 1 item is now only available to click n collect customers
-I chose to substitute for another item showing as available
-another email to say my substitute item now also only available to click n collect
-I ask for a refund of that 1 item and to proceed with sending my remaining 3 items on my order
-01 Aug I am told to allow 10 days for the refund and my order will be shipped soon.
-I wait patiently but by 15 Aug I email them to say no refund nor has my order arrived.
-2 days later I'm told another of my initial 3 items is now not available. On an order that was meant to have been filled from Jul 17. No mention of my refund.
- I'm asked if I want to substitute another item or refund of now unavailable item.
- Yet, when I look online I find that all of the items in my original order -that I'm being told I can't have are all showing as 'available' to ONLINE ordering.
-Their website provides an email for feedback about all customer experiences so I send an email to GM and I included AUS CEO Gavin Port.
-to date (26 Aug)no response received from either of my GM emails. So much for caring about customer experiences.
-As my order has still not been sent( 6 weeks after placing my order), and I'm now only getting 2 of my 4 items which were bought as a set of 4, I emailed to ask for a single different item to replace my original order or to have my initial order of my 4 items which are all showing as 'available' to be honoured.
-I have had no email response to my last email sent last week.
This has been a farcical, frustrating, time consuming online shopping experience. Imagine if I'd been buying items as a gift for someone- here I am 6 weeks later with none of my items.
-Buildabear...more like build an empire...with zero care for your online customers ..how about do better by your online customers !
-So be careful, this is my experience and as I said no items received, no email from GM and am still awaiting an email response from 'orders'-all in relation to what is happening with my order from 6 weeks ago.

Hugely disappointed that selfridges Birmingham does not accept build a bear voucher. We travelled into the city purposefully for build a bear and they refused. It should not matter to the customer whether it’s a concession or not. Therefore they should accept a voucher for a store it within its space. Not a happy customer!

My daughter has been several times over the years and each time she has really enjoyed it and she still has all her teddy's that she has made there.

Great for making those memories with your kids. Can be a bit pricey if you start adding loads of accessories so just be wary on that but overall a great experience.

My daughters went in to build a bear. The one had used her hard earned money to buy her sister a bear as her birthday present. The staff were rude and the manager of Build a bear Chadstone was very happy to take her money but because their system didn’t link to their eftpos machine, they refused to give my daughter the bear even though the money had come out of her account. They told her to take it up with the bank and that the bank would refund her within a few days. A few days came and went and the money had gone from pending to well and truly having been removed from her account. She went back to Chadstone to ask them for the bear because they had pocketed the money. They still refused My husband contacted the regional manager and the owner and we were ignored. Btw, the staff were also more intent on helping other staff members than on helping paying customers. This is a far cry from the Build a bear that first came to Australia. My daughters had their birthday parties there when they were you get and they were wonderful. But as things stand now, I would not recommend this company at all, as they have literally taken money without providing the goods and they were pretty rude about it. A really terrible, terrible customer experience!

Build a Bear has really fallen off. It seems they have gotten too big to the point they no longer care about the customer. Took me 2 hours to place an order because it wouldn't allow me to add everything into one cart. When I got on the chat with Eduardo he exited the chat while I was trying to upload the information asked for. I had to re-enter the chat 4 times just to get the order processed. Then once it was finally processed they removed the Voice Message without my consent saying I requested it to be removed. When I asked to show me the transcript where I requested it be removed he simply said he will check on it and notify me, then emailed me a few minutes later saying there is nothing they can do. Then when I asked why was it removed I got ghosted.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! I will never purchase anything from them again

Never, I repeat Never pay for faster shipping with Build A Bear! They drag their feet and their Customer Service is HORRIBLE!!! I have been a loyal customer for years. Kids and grandkids. However the service i recieved this month (7/25) Has changed that. Never again.

Spent nearly £300 over two orders via their website. This was my first time ordering with Build-a-Bear. When they arrived it was to find the bears just stuffed into two boxes with the various outfits stuffed in the boxes, here, there and everywhere. It was a mess. This isn't what I expected from such a store. All that money and it looked like a box of rubbish someone was going to take the tip! Then I had a problem with bonus points...they never updated. I contacted customer services who told me I had 263 points which would be converted into vouchers. Yet when I looked on my account, only 246 points had been added to my account, which meant I had lost out on a £5 voucher. I contacted customer services again to query this and to complain about the state my order arrived in... Well, what a farce this was!!!! You totally waste your breath with these people! They either don't even bother reading all the email or - as I suspect - just ignore practically everything and give you an answer that doesn't resolve the issue. Several emails were exchanged in a row and each time this person - I don't know if it was male or female as it was a foreign name - failed to address the issues. I even included the email from their colleague that stated I had 263 points NOT 246, yet they totally ignored this and each time just replied with nonsense...and then just stopped replying altogether. So I am out of pocket a £5 voucher and they are refusing to accept this or discuss it. Appalling customer service from start to finish.

Absolutely terrible customer service and online system. Booked a party online no confirmation no gift card as advised £20 taken from my account. Trying to get hold of someone for 5 day been told im lying. Also told that im the only person to complain trust pilot says different. Hanging up on me for the way I communicate (I have a communication disability). Despite me telling the call handler I am disabled still hung up. Promised call backs and not been done. Everytime I call I get told the same thing that is completely not resolving the matter at hand.

Total scam! Very expensive and they say they do not have the Birthday Special which is advertised online!! We especially made a trip to the shop on my son’s birthday to take advantage of the advertised birthday special but apparently it does not exist. Also the shop manager in Hamleys was very rude!!

If you get emotionally attached to your stuffed animals DO NOT order from them online.
Absolutely heartless monsters over email and chat. I am autistic ok and IDC how "childish" it is - I get very emotionally attached to the bears I created in my order - they were special to me - they had names and hearts and to me feelings (even if I know logically that is not true my heart still feels it) - when the package was lost (fed ex said on its way and build a bear said returned) they gave me back my money but I didn't want my money back nor did I ask for my money back - I wanted my bears! I tried explaining how important this was and that I was crying over them (stupid to many people I know but I really loved them) they just kept saying your money was refunded bye. Literally no help at all. Fed Ex said it was on its way still and that Build A Bear would have to call them to figure out what was going on and the chat agent refused to call Fed Ex - just literally like a robot kept saying "they are returned and you are refund. the refund will arrive in X days" no matter how many times I said I didn't care about the refund and that I'd pay again if they would ship them again - at the very least I want to know where my bears went and what happened to them - I am heartbroken at the idea of them ending up in the trash :(

Now talking to someone on the phone who at least has been kind to me!! unlike the chat or email agent but apparently the items are at the warehouse now and FOR WHATEVER REASON can't be sent back to me even though I'm willing to pay again. I don't understand why they would do that. I just want my bears :(

I I was very happy with the service the young Lady Miah was very helpful
And very happy with the product thank you.

Took my 11 year old daughter to Penrith Build A Bear today, after her wanting to go for a while... it was great. Of course it's the most expensive soft toy they'll ever own but, the experience and how happy she is, made it worth it. Time was taken with each part of her customisation. The lady was short-staffed but still made the effort to go through each stage and did not rush her.
Very happy with the whole process and my daughter's new furry friend.
