I bought a back pack from Samsonite…

I bought a back pack from Samsonite shope in Gunwharf Poersmouth in October 2023 with 2 year warranty. There is a fault on it. I went to the shop. The only options they offered me was to replace it with another product. The cheapest one was twice what I had paid. The warranty is useless.

Great outcome!

Despite being incredibly busy in repair Samsonite studio, the guys were incredibly helpful with my 2 luggages.
Professional, attentive and helpful.
Very big thank you for doing a great job. Specially Riccardo for spending extra time and effort with my big luggage trying to fit new wheels. Now, both suitcases run faster than me!

Phenomenal service

I required assistance with a broken wheel on a suitcase. The Samsonite repairs team in the Oxford Street store were absolutely fantastic. I spoke to them on the phone explaining the problem initially and then I WhatsApped over more information. I was then able to pop into store and purchase the part in order to fix the suitcase wheel at home. They were polite, professional and incredibly knowledgeable. It was an absolute pleasure to deal with them. I would highly recommend them.

Current generation of bags is poor quality.
I bought several because I liked the style. One by one they are breaking. Also trying to get them returned has been a nightmare via John Lewis. Happy to show photos.

Riccardo was amazing!

Went in with an incredibly old suitcase that had a completely damaged wheel. The repair centre didn't have spare parts as it was bought in America and so had different parts not used here, but Riccardo managed to put 4 new wheels while I waited that nearly matched which is amazing! Saved a good suitcase from landfill and given it a new lease of life for at least half a decade. Thank you so much for the fix!

Amazing & super speedy service

Amazing service! Ricardo at the Oxford St store was incredibly helpful and immediately fixed all wheels on 2 of my suitcases within 10-15 mins for £9 per wheel. My suitcases are like new! Excellent service!

Riccardo & Chez: outstanding service

I’m incredibly happy with the service I’ve received! With my flight coming up soon and the handle of my suitcase broken, I was truly stressed and didn’t know how to fix the situation. Riccardo kindly and expertly assisted me: my suitcase was quite old and the spare parts were no longer available, but he reassured me that they would find a solution.
And they did! In just about half an hour, Riccardo and Chez managed to fix the problem by cleverly using a component from another suitcase. The result? A job well done: not only functional and sturdy, but also great-looking!
So thank you!! I can now travel home with my fixed luggage. I had lost hope since the part was no longer in production, but you made it work anyway. Super recommended!

Thank you Riccardo

Thank you Riccardo! You fixed my zipper on my suitcase after it got stuck quickly and effectively. Excellent and friendly customer service from everyone. Bought a really nice duffle bag too and staff were fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone with a damaged or quick fix samsonite case needing a repair. Or to buy a great bit of luggage!
