Absolutely appalling handling of a straightforward return.
We purchased a pair of shorts online and took them out of the packaging to inspect them. We decided they weren’t what we wanted and returned them. They were not worn, washed or damaged by us.
Despite this, the company has refused to provide a refund, claiming the shorts had been “spoiled”.
What makes this even more unacceptable is that the returned shorts apparently sat in their warehouse for a few days before they were even inspected. So we are now expected to accept a vague allegation that the item was “spoiled” when there appears to be no clear evidence demonstrating what supposedly happened to it, when the alleged damage occurred, or who caused it.
If a company is going to refuse a customer’s statutory refund, the very least you would expect is a clear explanation and evidence. Instead, we have been given an extremely unsatisfactory response and left to challenge the decision ourselves.
This isn’t how a reputable online retailer should treat customers.
We are now having to spend our own time pursuing what should have been a very simple return and refund. The whole experience has been incredibly frustrating and has completely destroyed our confidence in this company.
Think very carefully before ordering from them. If something isn’t right and you need to return it, don’t expect the process to be straightforward or for the company to take a reasonable approach.
A very disappointing experience from start to finish, and one that could have been avoided simply by handling the return properly and treating the customer fairly.
