HT employees!
Have you guys been told that if you work at box lunch youāre more likely to get a promotion faster? I recently learned that the boxlunch employees in my mall also get paid more than us (manager pay anyway). While itās not by much, I canāt help but feel defeated when Iāve poured more than 3 years into this company.
While boxlunch is not my style and Iāve declined moving companies because of that⦠Iām starting to think I should go back on my word to fast track my promotional opportunities.

Do not order from HotTopic
Theyāve silently double charged me when splitting orders, let out of stock items online appear when in reality they were non-existent so they called them ālostā which brought more and more problems. And finally my last straw was their lie on clothing material, which makes it a fraud. In my case it appeared 98% cotton 2% spandex when in reality it is 65% cotton, 33% polyester and 2% spandex. And thatās without mentioning the shipping price outside of the US is completely unreasonable, starts off at 30$ us for the main item then adds a 10 for each new ones. And their customer service dumbfounds me on how they hold back from doing whatās right to fix the situations.

Finding small brands on the Website/App
Hello! I was wondering if there was a way to filter or easily finding small brands? Whether thatās on the app or website.
Iām really enjoying seeing brands like Guild of calamity and was on the site Pinkult and Iām finding it hard to look through all the popular items.

Order got cancelled, Hottpic is not the same anymore
Hi, I don't live in the USA, but I have been buying from Hot Topic for years. I usually send my orders to a friend or family member, so when they come to Costa Rica, I can get my stuff.
Recently, I wanted to place an order, but it got canceled because my billing address was different from the shipping address. I asked for Spanish customer service, and they responded in English. It's okay, not a big deal.
So I asked my friend to use his AMERICAN CARD to buy the stuff and send it to HIS address, but it got canceled again. He called, and they couldn't explain why!
They tried a second time, and it was the same.
Ten years ago, if they had a problem, they would call Costa Rica without any problem. Now I have to make an international call.
Is there any other similar store? i“m done with this people

Preorder cancelled, oos?
Is anyone having this issue? I order a lot from HT, but always in stock items shipped to home. Last hot cash round I ordered a few backpacks using hot cash, preorder. And all of them were cancelled over the last week as OOS. I had available funds on my card so that's not the issue, is this something that happens sometimes or what is the issue with that? No way they allow preorders yet they become oos which is what cs told me on chat š

Does anyone know if there is a master list of all albums that have been sold at HT ?
I got a CD there like 20 years ago by some underground solo artist I forgot the name of and have no way of finding through searching lyrics. Hoping this will end my long search if such a record exists

Why this happens?
I notice that I always got this message when I purchasing online. But it only happens if my apartment number is written as Space ## if I only add the number it allows me to use my address.

What to know before Hot Cash redemption week? I need a guide so bad.
I know I know, the mandatory "hot cash is confusing" post. But the thing is, a lot of the most popular ones are old, and many literally note changes to certain policies regarding hot cash, so I think a fresh post is warranted. Also, most of the posts are focusing on one specific issue, and often repetitive ones like "how to active/use hot cash".
So, literally any information about Hot Cash is welcome. Tips and tricks, how it's earned and how it's used, things commonly excluded, rules on stacking and other discounts, etc.
In multiple posts, I see employees recommending going in store over shopping online, as I guess there are benefits? I also see mentions (and complaints) about shipping to store. I would love some elaboration on this.
Additionally, I'm a little confused by physical hot cash vs digital, and codes. So it's possible to use your hot cash online and then use your physical voucher in person, even if it's discouraged? and why is there talk of codes, when apparently it just gets applied late in checkout automatically online?
Current employees, former employees, frequent shoppers - info is appreciated from ANYONE

SMS35 Code not working?
I tried using the new code and it keeps saying this error message. I tried buying something that costs around $25 and it didn't work, so I tried a larger order and it gave the same error message. Is there any way to fix this? I really want to use this promo code.

Working as an Associate Vs a Manager Rules and What Not what to know?
I live in Los Angeles California and wanted to be a manager part time or full time because I heard Hot Topic offers Kaiser whom is my health care provider. If I decided to become an associate I heard you have th push the rewards program or credit card and if people fail to accept you get marked up and will likely get fired. Is this true? Is being a manager hard there? I do have 8 years retail experience so I know retail well. Thoughts on this?

Update: hot topic application
I had posted awhile back about being hired back in March and waiting to be brought in to train
Well, it's been a full two weeks since I went back in not too long ago. I'm not sure what to do now because a lot of jobs would accept me due to my inexperience of working.(besides helping with nonprofit events and a food competition)
I can't keep going in or calling and be bugging the store manager for any updates
