I figure it comes out in the wash. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1580227 Wed, 04 Nov 2015 20:26:08 +0000 bren1 1580227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with jjsloan, you should not be showing in the negative for points except if you used the notes and then made returns.&nbsp; I don't understand why you would make returns on another card, that sounds shady.&nbsp; </p> <p>It's like any other cash back credit card.&nbsp; I am getting frustrated with Nordstrom not honoring correct points for 10 point days or triple points and having to monitor them.&nbsp; They keep saying "system glitches" and are not apologetic about it AT ALL.&nbsp; I think I may stop being a Nordstrom customer if they keep this up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017373 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 00:42:27 +0000 elpgal 1017373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That makes sense. OT: One of the ways credit cards count on making money is if you spend on that card and are not able to pay on time or carry a balance. Because of the competitive credit card, companies go to considerable expense to recruit and retain customers. Someone who is in the field has told me that I should expect a minimum of $300-400 in 'free' stuff from any given card. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017372 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 00:41:46 +0000 pastrygirl 1017372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm confused and feeling badly about this now. I wasn't trying to cheat the system, I would've been fine if it just took away the points I'd earned. But I'd read cautionary tales about going into the negative, and I thought I'd have no chance of going back into the positive since I don't usually spend hundreds there.</p> <p>FWIW, I ended up re-ordering a few things that I returned since they are on sale now, in different sizes because the original sizes I had weren't quite right and I felt I'd spent too much $ on not quite right.</p> <p>I'm not going to fool with triple rewards again. Too stressful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017365 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 00:35:32 +0000 Anonymous 1017365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't really understand, I've never gotten a note and I'm -69 points.&nbsp; I do return a lot but there are some things over the years that I have kept. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017304 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 23:14:39 +0000 Suz 1017304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That makes sense, Rae, and now I don't feel so bad.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017293 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:41:01 +0000 rae 1017293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, they go negative if the nordies note was already issued. So really you don't miss out on anything, it just takes longer to get a new note, since you were already given one you technically hadn't earned yet (because of the returns). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017290 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:38:07 +0000 annagybe 1017290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/rewards-terms-conditions?origin=footer#/general-terms-conditions" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/re.....conditions</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017286 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:35:41 +0000 Jjsloane 1017286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They can only take away the points you earned so I'm pretty sure the only reason you would go negative in points is if you've redeemed the earned points before you made the&nbsp;return which means you've already reaped the benefit of the rewards.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017281 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:29:33 +0000 annagybe 1017281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My understanding is that once you hit 2000 points you will get a Note.<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/rewards-nordstrom-notes?origin=rewards-chart" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/re.....ards-chart</a></p> <p>Once issued the Notes are not retracted with a return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017272 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:14:11 +0000 Diana 1017272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That seems like it must be some kind of computer error.&nbsp; Shouldn't they just take away the 3X rewards points that you got when you purchased it?&nbsp; This should bring the balance to 0, not negative whatever, and it's what always happens with my online purchases and returns.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017268 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:08:24 +0000 Suz 1017268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I must be in major negative rewards now, then. Because I returned most of what I bought on the triple rewards day. Hmmm. That's too bad.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017254 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 21:49:38 +0000 pastrygirl 1017254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I mean, I'd be fine if the points stopped at zero. I barely even get one Nordstrom Note each year. I'd never recover from having -3k points. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017253 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 21:46:37 +0000 pastrygirl 1017253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To be fair, the system shouldn't reduce my points to -3,000 just because I made returns. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017217 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 20:29:09 +0000 annagybe 1017217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do realize you just cheated the system? That being said my sales associate once did for me at her suggestion. I do have a twinge of guilt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-note-about-nordstrom-returns-w-triple-rewards#post-1017192 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 20:07:08 +0000 pastrygirl 1017192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week I bought several items at Nordstrom and the SA asked if I wanted to make it a triple rewards day (I did!). Between then and now, I decided to return most of it but learned that my rewards points would go heavily negative if I did the return to my Nordstrom card. I ended up doing the return to my debit card, which went directly to my checking account,&nbsp;and I was able to&nbsp;pay my Nordstrom card bill from that. Just thought I'd pass this workaround along in case anyone else didn't know the "dangers" of returning double/triple point purchases. </p>
