Toys R Us

Review: I ordered a south shore changing table and drawers in the store in [redacted] Babies R US location. The box was delivered in bad shape and the product was broken. I returned the next day at major inconvenience as it was very heavy. They offered me refund with no tax or shipping or store credit in full. I refused. I wanted my money back as it stated I was entitled to in stated policies. I called corporate office. They claimed I was correct and entitled to refund and it was an in store purchase they gave me reference number. I paid cash for product 210.11 in the store. A week went by no call and no refund in the mail. I called corporate today they said they were labeling it an online purchase now even though I paid in store and I would not be entitled to refund just store credit. Note they have the product and I have no money in hand.Desired Settlement: I want realistically my money back plus interest I hope this awful company goes bankrupt in the near future idealistically.

I was scanning through the complaints today and decided to look back at the time I had my own issue with Toys R Us. I had an issue with their Black Friday sale 2014. I had placed orders for items and 1-2 weeks later my items were cancelled due to being out of stock, and they refused to honor the sales price, although if they had told me at check out that the items were out of stock I could have received sale price in store instead. After about 5-6 phone calls Toys R us resolved my issue, but I had to push and keep calling and complaining via every platform available. I have not shopped with Toys R Us since. I just thought I would share my experience via the comments, since every single complaint during that time period has "Details for this complaint are not available". I believe Toys R Us is blocking these complaints and their resolutions from being publicized. During that time their social media was also flooded with customer complaints and instead of being addressed they were deleted, and when calling customer service for the first 1-2 weeks as soon as they heard the terms "black friday" they shut down the call and said they couldn't help you. I believe bad business practices like this should be known and not hidden, and shame on them for hiding such practices even on the Revdex.com website. I think that any and all consumers should be aware of these issues and practices while preparing for holiday shopping this year.

I visited Toys R Us Edmonton-north store (97 Street, TOYS R US #3535) on July 13th. I purchased two big toys and a couple of small items and paid $99.72.

While at the till, I was served by an employee who tried to sell me an insurance for the toys. I listened to her pitch and then politely refused the insurance. She rolled her eyes, rang in my purchase, and said "That would be $99.72 straight into the garbage". I asked her to repeat what she said (because I wanted to record it), and she refused rolling her eyes again!!??

Is that how Toys R Us trains your staff to treat the customers who spend, on average, $500-$600 a year in your store? I can shop anywhere for the same merchandises. I was choosing the Toys R Us because it was convenient. However, I REFUSE to be pushed into a purchase I don't want and to be judged and insulted by your so-called "customer service" for the choices that I make about spending MY money.

I hope that this is something that the store is going address on their end. Thank you!

I received a link to a friend’s baby registry for BabiesRUs and decided to order a $100 gift card to be delivered to her electronically (via email) on 3/26/15. I typed in a nice message, reviewed the preview they presented of the note that would be attached and submitted my order. Shortly afterwards, I received two email confirmations from ToysRUs. One message outlined the message the recipient would receive. This is what it said “Dear , Hooray! has given you an eGift Card from ToysRUs and BabiesRUs.”
I thought it was strange that the recipient’s name, my name and my thoughtful message didn’t appear. I waited a few days and reached out to my friend to see if she’d received it. She said she did but was glad I reached out because the email she received didn’t say who the gift card was from.
I called ToysRUs customer service. After dialing the 800 number I wasn’t able to select 1 from the automated menu “press 1 for existing orders”. Their automated system wouldn’t recognize any command and the system finally routed me to an agent. I explained what happened and the customer service agent said they couldn’t do anything about the problem. The customer service rep could see the message didn’t include the “to” and “from” details and could see their error. They offered to report it to their IT department but they said they couldn’t resend a corrected message.
What if I hadn’t contacted my friend to make sure she had received it? I asked to speak to the customer service rep’s manager since I didn’t feel her answer of “we can not do anything for you” was sufficient. After 12 minutes on hold, I was connected with a manager who thankfully spoke perfect English this time. The manager also said they couldn’t resend the same email but with the “to” and “from” filled in. The manager actually said this isn’t “a major issue” for them since it doesn’t happen very often. They know about it already and don’t think it is a problem?! Not acceptable!
So if you send a BabiesRUs or ToysRUs gift to someone and they don’t acknowledge your gift, maybe the Company didn’t tell them who the gift was from! Next time I’m going to write a check or send an Amazon.com gift card. At least Amazon gets it right. I’m never shopping at ToyRUs or BabiesRUs again.

Review: I have purchased a bedroom set for my child. The set came with a convertible crib and dresser. My family purchased the crib and dresser for my shower and I went to purchase the guard rail and bed rails two weeks later. However, when went on line to place the order it states that it is a special order item and that the item needs to be order through the store. So I drove an hour to the closet Babies R us. I asked to speak with the furniture department sales person to order a the rails and guard rail for the crib. The crib and dresser that I purchased is the [redacted] collection. The sales person told me that they were no longer going to carry this item so I was out of luck and that I should not have purchased this item if I wanted to convert the crib. This set the crib and dresser was over $1000. They would not let me retune the items due to the length of time I had them. The sales person told me that the only way that I could get the items that I wanted was to contact the maker [redacted]. I researched the company and finally got a number. I called them and they said that I had to contact babies r us since they were under contract with them and babies rus had all the rights to the set. So I called costumer serves and spoke with a rep. They again told me they were discontinuing the product and I was just out of luck. I told them it was like buying a car without the seats and that they no longer made the seats but didn’t tell you that when you bought it. Now you have to sit on a bucket and drive the car that way. They agreed but dismissed me and just said better luck next time. I then hung up and called again. Got a different rep and they told me the same sad story. I then asked to speak with a manager. They transferred me and I told them my story. I told them that their website still had the guard rail and bed rails available for special order and that since they still had them up I wanted to order them. They then tried to dismiss me and tell me I had to order it with the store. I told them that the store would not let me order it. The manager then took all my information and told me they would get back to me. One week later a rep called me and told me that the company was going out of business and that they couldn’t get me any of the parts. They said they were sorry and just tried to dismiss me again. I then told the rep that it was false advertisement and that I was going to get a lawyer. The rep then said she was going to try and find them somewhere in the system. I have been working with Babies Rus for two months and they were able to find me bed rails. However, the rep just called a left me a message stating that they are sorry but cant get the guard rail. The kicker is that I have contacted [redacted] personally and they have stated that they are not going out of business and that the still have parts available but it take Babies R us to order the part. I have told babies r us this and they just keep telling me a different story every time. I other problem is that anytime I have a question for the rep that was working on the case I cannot get in contact with because they say it is a call center and that they were unable to get me in contact with the rep that I had to leave a message for her and have her call me. However, I work during the day and that is when they would call and I was never able speak with her directly except once. I have made many attempts to purchase this product and ever since I told a manager that I was going get a lawyer due to miss advertisement the product is no longer available on line. This makes me wonder how many other customers bought the product and was not able to purchase the rails due to Babies R us miss advertisement of the attachments. I am truly disappointed in the service I received with them and the lack of communication the service center has with the retail stores. I am also disappointed that I spent so much money to have a wonderful piece of furniture that would see my baby girl trough from birth to adult hood. Now this will not happen due to the false advertisement of the product and the miss leading information given to me by reps at the service centers, and finally how they are unwilling to order the product form [redacted] (who I have spoken with directly and is willing to send the part once Babies R Us places the order). At this point I wish I would not have bought the bedroom set from babies R us due to their unwillingness to work with [redacted] and telling me several lies so that they didn't have to special order the part.Desired Settlement: I want Babies R Us to contact [redacted] and order the part or a corresponding part that will work and match the crib so that I can use it with my child when she is a toddler so that I do not have to purchase an additional bed for her toddler stage when the crib converts to one already.

Review: toysrus.com is promoting $15 off an order of $100 or more purchase They refuse to honor and apply the discount after I spent considerable time on their site reaching a merchandise dollar amount of $106.95 (pre-shipping, pre-tax). Upon looking at the exclusions for the offer, NOTHING in my online cart is excluded, so why isn't the 15OFF promotion code working? So I call their 800# and speak to a woman who tells me that two of the items I'm ordering (two sets of drapes) were on clearance, and therefore not eligible. This is bullcrap. Clearance items are NOT listed as excluded. This is the EXACT copy/paste from their exclusion list: Valid 11/25 – 11/27/13 Save $15 on your purchase of $100 or more! Use promo code 15OFF at checkout Excludes ALL baby items, baby food, diapers, formula, wipes, Red Hot Deal & Hot Price items, Extreme Deals, pre-sell items, 4moms, Baby Jogger, BOB, Boppy Bare Naked Pillow, Britax, Bugaboo, Bumbleride, Cybex, ERGObaby, Mamas & Papas, Maxi-Cosi car seats, Motorola, Mountain Buggy, Orbit Baby, Oxo, Pediped, Peg Pérego, Phil & Teds, Quinny, Robeez, Scandinavian Child, Stokke, Thyme Maternity, electronic learning toys, netbooks, tablets, video game hardware, video games, Apple products, FAO Schwarz toys, Isis products & classes, Buyer Protection Plan, gift cards, phone orders, Special Orders, assembly fee, breast-pump rental fee, delivery fee, and shipping & handling. As you can see, clearance is not listed. The woman on the phone told me clearance is considered an Extreme Deal. Well the terminology used on toysrus.com clearly says Clearance, not Extreme Deal. This is scamboogery. Clearence is not excluded, and the promotion should be honored. How this company can have an A+ rating is beyond me with the number of complaints I've see on the Revdex.com site trying to find this contact form.Desired Settlement: At minimum I want a $15 gift card, as this promotion ends today and I will not be able to take advantage of it, as I should have since NOTHING in my online cart was excluded based on their own exclusions list. The clearance items which illegally invalidated my order were 2 sets of SpongeBog Squarepants drapes which were on Clearance (again, they were NOT "Extreme Deals"), and which were on clearence for $11.99 per set (for a total of $23.98). Since these items are CLEARANCE items I'm sure availability is limited, and by the time this complaint is responded to by the company, if ever, they may not even be available anymore. So nice going Toys R Us - you like disappointing your customers. No wonder the company has been floundering for decades. Just close up once and for all. I'll never shop toysrus.com or their stores ever again. The last time I ordered from their website I was also jerked around at the store when I went to pick it up. Done.

Review: I purchased item [redacted] Planes DVD for $11.99 with order number [redacted] on 11/27/13. Shipping was free because I had spent enough, with other items, to meet the company's requirement. I received an email on 12/3/13 that the DVD was unavailable and cancelled and I was not being charged. I went on their website and found the item *in stock* for full price ($19.99) at their Clifton Park, NY store (a store within driving distance of my home). I was upset that they were selling copies of the product they claimed was unavailable. Also, since they waited almost a week to contact me, all the other vendors' sales were over, and the dvd was now full price everywhere. I could have initially purchased it on sale at a variety of places, and would have if had not been available when I initially ordered and paid for it. But since it showed in stock and available, and I paid for it, I didn't buy a second, unnecessary copy from another store. Now, I am unable to purchase the dvd at the sale price. I emailed back and received an automated email that the email address was not monitored. I went online and submitted a form on their website. I told the company they had the item *is* in stock in a local store and that I wanted a copy at the sale price I originally paid. I even offered to drive to the store (using my time and gas money). The response I received was "stock level of the Planes DVD, and unfortunately it has been depleted online at this time ". They offered me 10% off my next order, no mention of the Clifton Park store, or why they were selling the product I ordered and paid for, to other consumers at full price. There is absolutely no reason they can not honor the price for me on the item I ordered.Desired Settlement: I want a copy of the Planes DVD item [redacted] for $11.99. Ideally they should ship it to me for free. However, I am reluctantly willing to drive to the Clifton Park, NY store to pick up my copy, but I will not pay full price.

Review: I placed an order on babiesrus.com on 12/2/2013 for a toddler chair. The sale price was $39 and I selected a store which had the item in stock (in store pickup). The next morning I received an email that the order had been cancelled because the item was no longer in stock. I then went online and was going to order the product from another store that still had inventory - but the price now was $69. I called customer service and spoke with two separate "managers" ([redacted] who was extremely rude on the phone and kept threatening to hang up because I said the word damn, and [redacted]). I was informed that BabiesRUS would not honor sale prices anymore even though that I could have easily purchased the item from another store if the inventory levels been correct online. And even though there was product available in other stores, they would not honor the $39 price. My order number is #[redacted] This is a complete bait and switch marketing tactic! You can not show you have product available - offer it for a sale price - then cancel the order - only to have it available in another store for a higher price the next day!Desired Settlement: I want the chair made available to me for $39 - AS ADVERTISED WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I want a formal apology from BabiesRUS. I want some other form of gratitude sent to me because I have wasted over 2hrs dealing with this crap when I have been a loyal customer to babies r us virtually weekly.

Review: I bought a crib today through the babies r us website. I was unable to get it shipped to any store within a 100 mile radius of me, but I did find a store in [redacted] they would ship the crib to. I placed my order and within an hour I received an e-mail stating my order was cancelled. It would have been nice if they took the item off their website if it was unavailable, six hours later the product is still listed on their website as available to purchase. My husband is in the Marine Corps and we are moving across the country soon and its aggravating that Babies R Us is able to do this.Desired Settlement: I would like babies r us to honour the sale price on this crib. I was able to add it to the checkout cart and purchase it, then getting an email its sold out is insane. The product is still listed as for sale.

Response:

We are very sorry for the inconvenience and apologize for any confusion and/or misinformation. However, the offer you saw was a special clearance event with limited quantities available, and the cribs that were part of this offer sold quickly.

Review: I ordered a chair through Babies R Us on 9/7/13 and paid with a combination of $80 gift card and $720 in a debit transaction. The chair was delivered incorrectly (the incorrect item was sent). After several attempts to arrange for large item pick up, one of the customer service representatives told me to return the chair to my local babies r us, and agreed to refund my shipping costs out of inconvenience to me. I received the shipping refund in the form of $80 gift card and the remaining $220 in my debit account. I returned the chair to the store, but at that store, my return was processed incorrectly, and I was given a merchandise credit of $500 (which was not my original form of payment). The next time I called customer service, I was told then that the return was processed incorrectly and that I would not be receiving the correct item. I was frustrated at having received a refund in the incorrect form of payment, but agreed that if the company would give me a 50% discount on the item, I would re-order the chair using the merchandise credit I had received from my incorrect return. The total then came to $404. I was told by the customer service representative, [redacted] that I needed to provide a debit account number to process the order, but she repeatedly reassured me that my merchandise credit would be used to pay for the item not my debit account. However, 2 weeks later I learned that Babies R Us was shipping me 2 chairs, and my second order had been processed incorrectly and charged to my debit card rather than to my merchandise credit. At this point, I have had approximately $1000 charged to my debit account, and I have a $500 merchandise credit for babies r us. I still have not received the correct chair.Desired Settlement: I want to cancel the order completely (I do not want to receive any merchandise from this company). And I want the $404 refunded back into my account since that charge was never authorized to begin with. Ideally, I would like the $500 that is on the merchandise credit gift card to be refunded back into my debit account as well since my original form of payment was my debit account.

Review: I recently made a purchase at Toys R US and I got a $10 promotion gift card. On the card, it states: Card is valid beginning 6 hours after activation. promotional gift card: Expires 8/2/2013. I was surprised that I won't be able to use the gift card right away. Since I can't use is immediately, I was almost forgot about the card. However, luckily, I found the card on 8/2/2013 and figured I can made some purchase online. I tried to use this promotion gift card on Toys R US website on 8/2/2013 around 11:30 PM Central Time, but the website told me this gift card has already expired. I thought it was probably a mistake because when I was trying to use the promotion card, it was still 8/2/2013. Then I called the customer service and asked about the issue. The representative told me all gift cards' expiration dates are Eastern Time and there is no way they will give me the credit back. I looked at the back of the gift card, and I did not find any language talking about the expiration date regarding Eastern Time. The retailer failed to specify the actual expiration date and time on the card to mislead the consumer. I believe this is false advertisement. I was using the gift card within the stated expiration date., but the retailer will not honor the gift card. I was very disappointed with Toys R US even this is only a $10 gift card. I think the retailer is just trying to trick the consumer with out telling truth. If the card says expires on 8/2/2013 12AM Eastern Time, I probably won't even try to redeem it. It is not about the $10 gift card, it is about the credibility of the company.Desired Settlement: Get my credit back.

Review: I placed an order online with Babies R Us. The total purchase was $281 - paid in full via Gift Cards. I received a confirmation email of my purchase, and also got confirmation that my purchase was "in processing". 3 days after I placed the order, I received an email that my order was cancelled, with no explanation. I called the 1-800 number in the email and was informed that the reason was probalby because I did not have a credit card on file (which Babies R Us requires to confirm that the consumer is over 18 years old). I was never prompted to enter Credit card information during the order process and after seeing the emails that the purchase had gone through, I discarded the 5 gift cards that were used up and worthless since the order was paid in full. I had to call Babies R Us 4-5 times in 3 days, talked to various people who gave me different answers on getting my money back onto a store gift card and in the end, was refunded all but $22! One person told me the $22 was tax that the government now had and I could not be refunded. The government should not have any of the tax that I was charged, since I was not sent any items and my order was cancelled. Then the next person told me the $22 wasn't charged to me so that's why I would not be refunded, but it was charged to the gift cards and since those gift cards were discarded, I was shorted $22 of my order total. Customer Service became very rude with me on the phone, even though I had to call them 4-5 times, and was on the phone with them for over an hour during the last call. AND it was admitted to me that it was a system failure for not requiring me to enter credit card information if that was required.Desired Settlement: I am refunded the $22 that was left from my order total.

Consumer

Response:

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because:

I see the company still believes they are justified in not refunding my total amount but I continue to disagree. One of the customer service reps told me that the reason the order was cancelled was because I didn't enter a credit card, which is required even when an order is paid in total with gift cards (she said the credit card verifies that I'm over 18 years of age). Then another rep said the 4$22.01 was tax which they do not return. I was definitely charged the full amount and it was paid in full with gift cards. If there was a balance remaining, as the company is saying, the order would not have been able to be completed and I would not have recieve a confirmation email that my order was being processd). I do believe the $22 remaining was tax, which the company can no longer see on their end since the order was cancelled. But, that is a glitch in THEIR system which I should not have to lost money over.

Thanks so much for your help.

Review: My wife and I were approved for a credit card from babies r us on June 3. This complaint is being made on July 17 at which time I still do not have a card or have received a bill. The main problem I had was not the card but was the inability to contact anyone directly. I spent over two hours trying to **t in touch with someone on the phone. After several attempts to speak with someone I finally got someone from a different department on the phone and found out that babies r us uses [redacted] for financing. So then after trying to contact ** their entire system is automated and you cannot get in touch with anyone on the phone. I had to contact another department and demanded that they send me directly to someone in the customer service department. It should not be this difficult to try and get a problem resolved!!!Desired Settlement: I would like for them to waive any late charges or fees I would incur due to them not sending me my card or a bill. At the time I called I was informed my bill was due in four days. Had I not took it upon myself to go through [redacted] to get this information I would have accumulated a lot of money in debt for something that was not my fault.

Review: I Have made several trip and several phone calls to the nearest Toy R Us location and the [redacted]. My recent experience with you company and left me feeling cheated , lied to, stressed and very MAD. My explanation of events will be listed below. I do plan to send a written letter to the corp address along with writing to the Revdex.com and making several bad reviews of your company.

Sunday 7/2 I went to the [redacted]I location on [redacted] to purchase an MX400 Razor Dirt Rocket. They did not have it in the store and ordered it online. They somehow messed up the order and no confirmation was placed for the purchase but it showed pending on my bank account. I waited an hour in the store while they worked with people on you 800 # to get this transaction to go through. I was then told to go home and wait a day and if nothing happened to call the 800#. I called the 800# two days later and was advised nothing had processed, nothing was shipped or going to be and then I needed to call my bank to take the hold off my account. I called my bank and the hold came off. I then purchased a new dirt rocket from [redacted] since they could ship in time for my son’s birthday and Toys R Us could no longer guarantee it would arrive in time. Thursday 7/11 I had a MX400 at my door from your company. I checked my bank account and there was no transaction. I then called your 800# and the rep said I pretty much was sent a Bike for free and advised me to ship it back. I explained that I would go to the [redacted] location right away and have them ship it back. He said several times my account would not be transacted for a purchase and to just return it and all would be fine. I returned the item to the [redacted] location and they printed a label in front of me to send out the next day. The next day I woke to a negative balance on my account due to ToysRUs billing me for something I no longer possessed. This will now cost me $75 in overdraft fees which your corp hotline says theDesired Settlement: Refund the amount they charged me , my overdraft fee, plus something to comp. my time and stress.

Review: I placed an online order for two items on Babies/Toys R Us website; I opted for pick up at a local BABIES R US - [redacted] . I call twice prior to placing the order and verify the items were in stock in this local store.

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because: As per my many calls to customer services; I no longer have the original gift card ; after making the purchase the gift card was toss in the thrash. I did recovery the gift card but it was folded half ; many of the number also the ending numbers on the back of the cards are no longer visible and difficult to make out. I still do not have my $100. please refund the gift card with a E-gift card or a gift card in the original amount paid. If possible can I take this damage gift card to the store to get a new card??? this is truly unacceptable.

Review: I received a Toys R Us gift card for $40. We I went to use it, it wouldn't work. When I called customer service, I was told that the card had been deactivated due to inactivity. I was told that I would receive a call back from their specialist department within 24 hours. I was asked to send an image of the card to their customer care department. I sent an image of the card via e-mail but never received a phone call or reply to the e-mail I sent them.Desired Settlement: I would like a refund of the $40 gift card in the form of a check made payable to me or a [redacted] that I can use at any merchant. I have already experienced the embarrassment of trying to use the gift card at a Toys R Us and then having to pay for the purchase with my own cash.

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because:I was given a gift card for Babies R'Us in 2010. The gift card was purchased from a store in Puerto Rico. I tried to use the gift card in 2015. When the card wouldn't work, I called customer service and they said that the gift card had been deactivated. I sent an image of the gift card to their customer service e-mail and filed a complaint with Revdex.com. Toys R Us responded to my complaint saying that the card was redeemed on 7/14/2010 at a store in Burbank, CA. I've never been to CA!!!! Clearly, Toys R Us made a mistake when they went back to check their records. For their reference, the number on my gift card is [redacted]". I called Toys R Us again and they told me that they need to call me back. Throughout this whole process, I have never received any call back or message from them. They must think that I will just go away and throw the $40 into the trash. Well I am not going away and will even pursue legal action if I have to. I sincerely hope that someone from their customer service department made a mistake with one of the numbers on my gift card and that they are not lying about the gift card's use to try to get out of refunding me my $40.

I am rejecting this response because: That was an old registry I created and lost my baby. I became pregnant again in January 2014 and found out the sex of my baby on May 12,2014. When I went to babies r us I was told all I had to do was change my due date on my registry and would in fact qualify for endless rewards. This was told to me by your employees who run the registry desk!!

Review: When making a purchase from Toys R Us back in November their website took money off of my gift card in the amount of $86 but when my purchase went through the money was taken off the card BUT NOT APPLIED TO MY ORDER. They have been promising to put this money back onto my gift card but the balance in still zero. I have called 4 times and emailed twice yet the balance is still $0.00. I have been told it will be handled in 3-5 business days each time, with no success.Desired Settlement: I am only requesting SOMEONE at Toys R Us actually handle this and put the money back onto the card OR SEND A NEW CARD.

Review: In November 2013, my wife wrote a check at the store in [redacted] The check cleared our bank early December. April 2014 toys r us reported the check as a bad check. I paid the service to get my name off their list. Sent copy of paid check to toys r us, with requested info from our bank. Was told on Thursday almost two weeks ago we should hear something in 3 to 5 days. Another call was placed when I was told company policy was to tell people 3 to 5 days when they know it may take longer. Have heard nothing since last Thursday. The check was not bad to start with essentially paid for the merchandise twice plus the forty dollars for the check service. All I have asked for is my money refunded. They can't give me an answer for why this happened.Desired Settlement: To receive my money back. Then I will never darken their doors again.

Business

Response:

This complaint is currently open within the TRU call center and our sales audit department. We have been advised that the check was returned to us from the bank coded as this customer did not have sufficient funds to cover the check on 12/06/2013. The check was sent to our collections with Certegy to collect on it. If the consumer can prove this check cleared then we will be able assist accordingly. We will need copies of their statement showing when it went through and when it cleared the account.

Thank You

I am rejecting this response because:

The check cleared our bank on dec 3rd. We have sent the Toys r

us the check info and also to centegy. Why was this check not turned over to centegy until April of this year?

Regards,

Business

Response:

The proper documentation has not been provided for assistance. Bank statements confirming the exact date and amount the check cleared for is needed. We have received statements that are dated 4/14-5/14; this statement does not verify when the check cleared originally. We are requested bank statements for 11/13-12/13.

Thank You
