Always a solid goto when you need something thoughtful and last minute. They have a wide selection of cards for just about every occasion... birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, or even just a simple "thinking of you." What I like most is the variety. You can find everything from funny and lighthearted to heartfelt and meaningful, so it's easy to match the vibe you're going for. They also carry small gifts, gift wrap, and little add ons that make it easy to put something together without running to multiple stores. Overall, it's convenient, reliable, and perfect for those moments when you want to make someone feel special without overcomplicating it. read more

American Greetings Cards are sold at Target. I've decided not to spend a lot on greeting cards anymore. I found that if I look around carefully at Target I can find a cute American Greetings card for less. They keep the words short and to the point. The valentine card I bought for my daughter says exactly how I feel. Five Stars for a historic Greeting Card Company..... read more

I liked the card, but the envelope was too flimsy and the flap would not stay glued. Had to glue it myself. I will go back to Hallmark for my greeting cards from now on. read more

Got an email notifying me of an automatic renewal and a charge to my bank account. I do not have an account with this business. I contacted a "customer service" representative about a refund as the charge was pending with my bank. I informed him that I had no account with American Greetings. The company declined to reverse or refund the charge. In my opinion this is a scam. I have probably purchased their cards at grocery or retail stores before without thinking about the name of the company that produced them. I will check now and I will never purchase any of their products either on-line or at retail in the future. read more

Their online E-Card subscription is predatory. They offer no refunds on subscription renewal even if you call seconds after it renews. Thanks for stealing from me American Greetings. read more

I'll join my friend Marianne in sending American Greetings a little love. As the quintessential greeting card procrastinator, I always find myself in CVS at the 11th hour picking through Hallmark's gilded collection of talking, origami cards that can easily set you back a ten spot plus without breaking a sweat. I've found that with a little planning at Target, you can stockpile basic American Greetings birthday or holiday cards without having to dig deep for Will Ferrell doing his talking Elf shtick. Besides, with the exception of the odd romantic among us, cards attached to a gift always get short shrift. Thank you American Greetings. Five easy stars. read more

American Greetings has been around a whole. American Greetings' story begins in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1906, when Jacob Sapirstein, a determined young Polish immigrant armed with big dreams and a $50 bank loan, began importing elegant postcards from Germany and selling them to local merchants from his family's horse-drawn cart. That's inspiring! I find the greeting card standard to be Hallmark for secular cards and DaySpring for Christian themed cards. American Greetings is the world's second largest greeting card producer behind Hallmark. Wow, I didn't realize Holly Hobbie premiered in 1967 as a line of American Greetings greeting cards. What little girl did not absolutely LOVE Holly Hobbie! In 1972, American Greetings introduced the world to Ziggy. And who wasn't on the Strawberry Shortcake train which started in 1981? They were the first to offer recycled paper cards in the 1990s and they partnered with Gibson and Papyrus in 2000 and 2009 respectively. American Greetings offers greeting cards, e-cards, SmashUps, Creatacards, party supplies (napkins, plates, cups, banners), stickers/decals, stationery (boxed cards, invitations), and gift packaging (tissue, gift bags, bows, and gift wrap). Thank you, American Greetings, for making truly American made products and honoring our special occasions with so many excellent products! read more

I signed-up for what I thought was a 7 days free trial. Suddenly there was a full year charge made on my credit card! I tried to cancel my subscription and it was impossible to locate. Then I wrote their customer service who got back to me a week later, and basically said too bad...so sad...I was out of luck! Definitely stay far away from these people...it's borderline criminal what they are doing! read more

Quite possibly the worst brand of product ever. Super low quality, cheap, doesn't hold at all. One roll of $6 wrapping paper was able to successfully wrap one 10 inch box. One. I wrap many things, but this was so thin it ripped practically by just looking at it. Awful. Not recommended, and I will not purchase again. read more

Complete ripoff and the customer service is terrible. I learned my lesson the hard way. BEWARE THEY WILL NEVER REFUND YOUR MONEY FOR ANY REASON! Not sure how this company plans on keeping its doors open with all the AI that can now create even better greeting ecards. read more

If I could give a 0, I would. I never leave negative reviews until now. Please don't join American Greetings online. They cheat you and charge you even when you cancel within the trial period. They also kied about the fee when I called. It is not $6.99 as I was told but $29.99. Customer Service is horrible and we are fighting this unfair and dishonest charge. Awful company with very poor reviews on Yelp, too. Buyer Beware! read more

Very disappointing! Recently renewed my subscription after a year's lapse. Found that many people don't want to click on emailed e-card even when I send them a text message notifying them. I could not initiate a text e-card except on same day and not from my desktop computer--don't get that! Text message was available on my desktop and then when I went to send on day of event, it was gone! I emailed and called CS explaining my complaint and asking to cancel. They won't cancel! Only will stop renewal! That's bull****! read more

Same as other comments, they tell you the service is "free" for a week, but charge your credit card anyway. When I emailed to cancel 4 days into my "free" week, they emailed about a week later and said they would cancel at the end of the month, AFTER charging me in advance. Make sure you don't select Auto-renew. read more

Do not use the on line ecards. It is impossible to cancel this service. I turned off the auto renew button on my account and they still billed my credit card. I called to ask for a refund on the day my cared was billed, and was refused. Be very careful in doing business with this company. I wish I had read the reviews here before signing up for ecards. read more

Tried to purchase an American Greetings Birthday card in Walmart, none of the cards were on the system. The store refused to assign a price and would not allow me to purchase the card. The customer service manager of the Walmart explained that they were not able to sale items that were not on the system although the cards were on display in the store. It's very disheartening that the only resolve was to return the next day to purchase an inexpensive item. Just thought AG would like to know how this merchant is handling the product. read more

total rip off don't get hooked. they say you can cancel at anytime...but you still have to pay for the entire year!!!!!!!!!!

The last time I used this service was in 2017. I've not used it since that time. I had no idea they were charging my American express card a fee every year. I got an email from them telling me about my renewal and the $29.00 annual fee. My husband pays the bills and just assumed I used this company. I do not...!!! They've charged me a fee every year and I never got a renewal notice until now. They will not issue me a refund....they're a rip off and I asked for proof of me signing a membership and they refuse to show me. They somehow have on their site something that they claim makes you a paying member. I paid them all this money for nothing...we're retired and they took such advantage of innocent people. SHAME ON THEM...! BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY....!!!!!!!!! read more

Do not sign up for their ecard service with your credit card. You can never get out from under it. You can't cancel on line. You can't reach them by phone. I believe the only way I can stop this is to cancel my credit card. I will never purchase an American Greeting card in a store either. Just horrible. read more

Terrible customer service. Auto renewals without notice and they won't refund even if you contact them immediately.

Save yourself a headache and do NOT subscribe to americangreetings.com. Online has limited cards and are not updated. They state you can print the cards vis create a card, but there are less than a handful I found, maybe 5. I sent them a message and received a note stating they are there and you have to search. Not any help. Went to logon today and received an error: "There was a problem with reCaptcha validation.". tried to send a note via online help request, but got same error. Tried to call and was told closed at 5, (I called at 3:15 Pacific Time), and will be open on Monday. read more

They cheat you out of your money. There is nonexistent customer service. Put simply, no one answers the phone calls or emails of customers. If you have a problem and need a refund, you are out of luck- completely. read more

American Greetings has become pure garbage. What a shame. It used to be a great service for a reasonable price. Now . . . they take your subscription money and the product doesn't even work. When you give up trying to make it work and you decide to get your money refunded, it's impossible to do that either. I haven't been able to send a single ecard. This is nothing short of pure theft! read more

So American Greetings, was not at all helpful and that I will be forced to give them a bad review !! My eCards were NOT in Sent .. eCards, were never sent!! ..even though I did resend them 2ce !! and this has happened on multiple occasions!! Even though , the email addresses of the recipients are correct... & they are NOT in their Spam or Junk folders. ..so it is indeed unfortunate that American Greetings refuse to do the right thing & THat that your memberships are nonrefundable...and that I thus will be forced to give you a bad review !! Blue Mntn is much better ! I will return to them!! read more

American Greetings; Contributing to the deterioration of Society by selling cards with poor grammar. After spending hours of looking for the "perfect" Birthday card for my son, I found one. I read a few sentences on the cover and inspected the body, and it seems to convey what I want to say. However, after further inspection, I found TWO grammatical errors. One can only imagine how irritated I feel right now. I cannot give my son a card like this in good faith. Time is money... I have to make time to take the card back to the store of purchase for a refund. I am perplexed that American Greetings would require consumers to pay $$ for such a blunder. I can blame auto correct for my blunders, to whom do you blame for yours AG? read more

American Greetings - SAMPLE 1~ "Asking help"...Really? Perhaps this should have been filed under Ebonics. - Cards & Stationery Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

I love this cimpany for their creative cards and the many ways they offer to share what i am thinking with friends and loved ones.

I had signed up for a one month membership, with NO automatic renewal. They ignored me and charged me an extra month as a result of auto renewal. I had to call them today to talk to a representative and cancel by talking over the phone. Be ware of getting charged for additional fees!!! read more

I tried the free 7 day trial to send electronic greeting cards. There weren't many online but I sent several for the holidays. That is the 2 stars. Unfortunately, not many people even picked them up. Maybe spam filter?? Anyway, there is a message online that you can cancel the trial anytime using the "button below". There is no button below. Next I went online & sent an email. Several cancelation emails. I was then charged. I got an email back stating that they could not locate my account. They were able to locate it for billing & response tho. I have since tried calling. They are on voicemail. Now I have resorted to disputing the charge with my credit card company. DON'T DO IT. read more

I have been very unhappy with this companies online business practices. I have had an American's Greeting membership thru Yahoo for a few years. I have attempted to cancel that membership over the that couple months. Problems: 1. There is NO way to cancel your membership on the website. 2. There is NO way to cancel your membership thru email. 3. The phone number you have to call is horrible. I was on hold 3x all with hold times between 20 and 45 minutes. The system then hung up on me 2 times on top of that! 4. When I got a person on the phone she cancelled my membership as of TODAY and said I would be getting a confirmation. The email that showed up 5 minutes after she hung up said I was renewed for another year THEN it would be cancelling. The is some of the shadiest business practices of a reputatble compnay that I have ever seen! read more

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY!!! They are practicing some of the most unethical business and billing practices I have seen. I would go so far as to say www.americangreetings.com seems like a knowing and intentional reoccurring billing scam to me. They offer you a free trial where you can cancel with no liability, but then they make it very hard to cancel. Not to mention, they make it hard to find a place to leave a review. One has to go through their TOU, find the address where to mail legal requests, and then search here. First, they do not allow you to see HOW TO CANCEL until you have provided your billing information and signed up. ONLY THEN are you shown the instructions to cancel, which is to call a phone number. Now, it says they are open 24/7. BUT, the automated system does not allow you to accurately enter information to locate your records. It makes you spell your name and is never able to accurately locate your record. After reading the terms of service and privacy policy thoroughly, I could find no information on how to cancel either, other than references to the help section, as stated above, which requires you to log in, and therefore have an account and billing information on file, to view. FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION, if you are reading this, PLEASE SANCTION THIS COMPANY FOR SUCH PRACTICES! It reminds me of the Enzyte case. read more

For Mother's Day, I purchased a $9 card that was battery-powered. I purchased the envelope and mailed it. The card arrived damaged and my mother was disappointed as was I. I emailed AG two times, no response. I called the customer number and there was no way to speak to a person. I went on the live chat and found out that retail sales was an entirely different number. I called this number and spoke to an agent named Anthony and his supervisor named Brandon. Both were unhelpful and shifted the burden of refunding my money to the retailer who sold me a perfect card. The card is defective if it cannot be mailed. AG refused to refund my money or send a replacement card. All they "could do" is let their research department know. AG should go out of business. DO NOT buy AG. read more

An update: after close to a year afterwards, they refunded my fee. It took a complaint to the Better Business Bureau, and appeals.

Jokers have been charging me because some account auto-renewed. Snakes. Don't sign up for a membership with them...you'll forget, they won't notify you and just keep charging you. read more

BEWARE OF THEIR FREE TRIAL OFFERS!!! Once you sign on for their free trial offer, which is for a limited period, it is up to you to contact them to cancel before the trial period ends. . Otherwise, you will continue to be billed on a regular basis without any type email notification of such billing. It is very easy to forget that you may've once signed on for such a service, especially with no type a reminder from the company. I find this type of business to be very misleading and deceptive. It takes advantage of many people who have no idea that they are continually being charged $4.99 each month for a service they may not have wished to continue with. Customer service didn't make it easy to refund my total expense but they did credit me for three months and close the account. I am still not happy that I had to pay for the other several months. You would think that an extremely large company like American greetings would be more than happy to do the right thing for a dissatisfied customer and avoid me from writing this review to make others aware. read more

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY! I worked for them for 9 years in middle-management and opted for an early retirement package (just before the lay-offs started), when they were recently bought out by vulture capitalists. We early retirees were guaranteed health insurance for three years, helping those of us not yet 65, bridge the gap to medicare. Sounds great, right? Half way through the 3 year term the company randomly dropped my husband from the insurance with no explanation and they did not even notify me. My husband and I found out that he had been dropped by trying to get a biopsy for cancer that he needed after having his physical in November. I have spent the entire month of December trying to get him reinstated being shuttled from person to person. After having been assured that he was back on the insurance, and waiting nearly 2 weeks to be sure all the paperwork had been done on their end and the healthcare providers end, we tried to get the biopsy again and the same thing happened. He wasn't covered. This is when I started writing very strongly worded emails and copying a bunch of higher level people in the organization. Day after day as I checked to see if his coverage was there, I wrote more and more strongly worded emails. By the way, they also tried to manipulate me out of a refund of my husband's part of the premium for December. The last straw happened yesterday (1-1-2020) when I went on the healthcare providers site and was relieved to see my husband had been added back, but (to my dismay) THEY DROPPED COVERAGE FOR ME! I'm in the middle of now trying to get my coverage reinstated and get the biopsy for my husband. I've never, ever, in my entire life experienced such questionable conduct by a corporation. Also, this has happened to many people on the early retirement plan. It just smells to high heaven. Buy your cards at Hallmark - I worked for them, too, and while they were just OK to work for, they never pulled any shady stuff with me. BUY HALLMARK!!! read more
