How to Remove Security Tags?

Question

So Today, I purchased a pair of jeans at American Eagle and the security tag was left on there. It doesn't have ink in it, but I need to get it off. I once heard something about a rubberband to remove it. Everyone can call me a thief and whatever, but I don't care because I know I didn't steal the jeans.

Answer 1

Think seriously about giving them a ring about the problem and arranging to meet a specific staff member (ask for their name) and take the jeans and the docket with you and have them remove it as they should have done.

Some of those security tags do nasty things if you try to remove them like leaving ink all over the person and you don't want to look weird until the ink wears off!!

EDIT:

P.S.  Tell them which checkout you went through and what the cashier looked like, if you can remember that sort of thing.  They can read the docket (if the cash register has been given the details) to know what cash register it was and who the cashier was and will help them know you are on the level.

Answer 2

Grab your receipt, Then give them a call.
