Excellent service

I buy all my highland clothes from McCalls in Aberdeen. I always find them very helpful. They recently reopened the shop as I arrived at closing time to buy new items for a wedding the next day. Excellent service.

Small sizes

The sizes are small and this is not stated on the website, but the guys in Aberdeen were wonderful and got me sorted as soon as I told them the problem.

Damaged packing after poor postal packing…

We bought items as presents and they were posted in a light paper handwritten envelope so the packing of the items were damaged on arrival. We reported this and asked for an exchange as it was damaged which was agreed but no mention of covering shipping until we asked. This can be claimed back by us but they cant send us a pre paid shipping label… It feels like the whole responsibility of correcting their mistake is on us and requires multiple emails. I don't think I’d buy from them again as this has been so much more work than it needed to be.

Great service, wonderful people

Chloe, Louise and Glynis were absolutely wonderful when helping us out at the very last minute. In no time we were back out. They were skilled and efficient, but also caring and interested. And not to forget, we got so many compliments at the party.

Very efficient service and a lovely…

Very efficient service and a lovely waistcoat for Grandson's 18th birthday. Beautiful wool with shiny silver buttons. It fits him really well and he is all set to look especially smart for his end of school Prom.
