★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Kim helped me after i had called the PB Teen number 3 separate times to see if they could figure out why one of my visa gift cards was not working. She actually took the time to assist me and investigate a solution. Your customer service line is certainly not what it used to be, however, I will continue shopping with PB since Kim went the extra mile. Makes me have hope your customer service will improve.
