Fail to respond to emails
Dear Jack and Anchor,
Order number 6911646
I bought a jacket from your website in December 2016. Unfortunately it was the wrong size and so I returned it at the beginning of January 2017 requesting a different size. It was returned by recorded delivery and arrived at your warehouse on 9th January.
I emailed you twice chasing up the exchange in January, and eventually received a response on 30th January saying there was an issue with the courier "updating my tracking details" but a new jacket had been dispatched to me and should be with me "within a day or two".
Needless to say, I did not receive any delivery in the next day or two...or nine for that matter. And so I e-mailed your "customer support" e-mail address on 9th January for an update. I received a reply on 10th January apologising and advising that my replacement jacket wasn't sent straight away because you didn't have my size in stock, but the "haulier" would be chased and my jacket would be with me "any day now". I was also advised to reply to the e-mail if I hadn't received the jacket by early the following week.
Once again, the jacket didn't arrive. Since then, I have e-mailed your customer support address on 16th February, 21st February and 27th February asking for some kind of update/explanation as to why it has taken two months to send me a replacement.
Disappointingly, I have since been met with radio silence. I am yet to receive my replacement jacket, and have not received any sort of satisfactory explanation for the delay. It's extremely frustrating that your company were quite happy to take and keep my money, but have been unable to provide me with my goods. I've even asked for a refund in my e-mail of 21st February but this hasn't been honoured or even acknowledged.
The worst part is when you phone your customer support line and are greeted by an automated message that advises that all of your customer service enquiries are now dealt with by e-mail "to increase efficiency with your customer service". It also advises that you aim to respond to all enquiries within 24 hours. I can without doubt say that this is the least efficient customer service I have ever experienced, and you're missing your e-mail response target in spectacular fashion.
Due to your failure to respond to e-mails, I have been forced to post this message on social media. All I ask is that my message is acknowledged and I'm provided with an update as to the whereabouts of my jacket, failing which I receive a full refund for my purchase. I don't think that's too much to ask.
I look forward to hearing from you in due course.
Yours,
Stewart
