Wrong size of clothes from what advertised and start changing return without sending us an email when they change policy

I ordered item online because it’s a online only option. The size was wrong as I checked their online size guide and the actual size when arrived. So, I mentioned on return request that was the reason for return. When I finish filling up return order I saw £1.99 charges apply suddenly. I received every day sale email from this company but never something for their new policy. I was very shocked to hear from their customer service that “The sizes can be different for the materials were used!! So how can I know from online what materials were used can you they explain that??? After how many items I should pay for the extra return cost, I will get to know what they mean by “ please know that the sizes can differ to the materials being used and the type of item that you have purchased. ”
This is just wasting time what they wrote. I bought recently with the same size and that was perfectly fit and burton one is small because it’s wrong size then they advertised. I also measured it which doesn’t match what they advertised. So, I want my money back and not pay delivery amount also I no longer would like to buy from burton because its just not match the guideline which you advised online.. ALSO WHEN WE PAID FOR ITEM THERE SHOULD BE A NOTICE THAT FOR RETURN THERE WILL BE EXTRA CHARGE although the delivery was free BECAUSE IT SAY for £60.00 or more no delivery charges but return is extra who will dream about it if it’s no written?

I have been a customer since there were this shops open but after Boohoo bought this brand nothing was different to buy online. But at this point I am really disappointed with your customer service and very much frustrated this time. As I do not wish to be a customer again.without knowing your new I unannounced rules,

Good morning Alexandra,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, we do appreciate your feedback as we're always looking for ways in which we can improve our services.

When ordering online there is always a chance that you may need to make a return, we do have our online size guide available on our website, in an instance where you may between sizes we would advise ordering multiple sizes to try and see which fits best.

In relation to the return cost, this can be seen on our website under returns and refunds under the section titled 'how to return an item and how much does it cost' - I will include the link for you below.

https://www.burton-menswear.com/eu/page/returns-refunds-cs.html

We know our customers value the wide range of items and great price points that we offer, along with the convenience in shopping with us. As the cost of shipping has increased we have had to look at where we can adapt our overall offering without compromising the great value that we have across all of our products. This has meant that we will be applying a charge of £1.99 to returns so that we can continue to bring to market great prices and products and do this in a more sustainable way.

We have recognised our loyal and regular customers in this decision and have decided to leave returns free for all of our Premier customers’ existing and new. This means that not only will our Premier customers get free deliveries for a year, they will also get free returns.

You can find more information on our Burton unlimited delivery option here - https://www.burton.co.uk/unlimited-next-day-delivery/BUDELIVERYPASS.html

For customers that need to pay for returns, the charge will be deducted from the refund of the products that you return to us. This means that there is nothing extra for you to do and no upfront payments to make when creating a return.

Please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service team should you need anything at all and we will always be happy to help.

Take care,
Fiona

Really disappointing customer service

Really disappointing customer service - no phone number to actually speak to anyone. Still waiting on a refund 3 weeks after returning a large order. The system they have to discuss a problem is very strange - have spoken to 6 different colleagues and each had different information! Have been promised the refund on 3 different dates now... still waiting!!

Charged 3 times but no order

I tried to simply order a coat, the payment was taken three times but the order never went through on the app. It is still sitting in my bag somehow. You can only contact Burton via twitter (where you can no longer message the contact) or Facebook messenger (where the messages are sent but go unread and unanswered). So now you have taken my money three times, no order has gone through and there isn't even a way to chase this or raise a complaint. Worst customer service ever.

Great service from the agent

Great service from the agent! I thought I had ordered the incorrect item because the colour was called ice grey and it looked more camel colour but the agent informed me of the correct colour.

Terrible and dishonest customer services

Applied a discount code that was emailed to me but after receiving the order confirmation realised that they didn't reduce the total. So emailed them within 5 MINUTES of receiving the order email to cancel or ask that they kindly apply the discount. Heard 2 DAYS later saying no it's too late and that I already used a code ( I hadn't so that was a lie).
Responding to them to clarify it took them another 2 DAYS to get back to me saying it's already despatched and they can't do anything. No customer service number. No online chat. 2 DAYS to respond and still no resolution.
Before the takeover they used to be OK. I've spent £thousands on Burton. But that counts for nothing to them. The rudeness, dishonesty disregard and contempt they show me - forget it. NEVER again. I recommend you never use them. I'm referring them to trading standards for breach of online trading laws.

Great choice of good priced clothes

Great choice of good priced clothes, good customer service response. I did have a small issue but it was quickly resolved. I found messaging through Twitter to be an efficient way of communicating. Will continue to use again and again.

The missing waistcoat

I have tried in vain to contact Burtons as I am being charged for a waistcoat that has been returned to them by Royal mail for some unknown reason and trying to contact royal mail is just as frustrating, I have had a picture emailed to me of a trolley full of parcels in Burnley saying I have received my item, please Burtons sort out my issue as I have shopped with you for 25 years but this could be coming to an end regards Robert Jenkins

Great products, but unfortunately terrible tech and awful customer service

Great products, but unfortunately terrible tech and awful customer service.

Where do I begin...

I have had Burton next day delivery for 10 months, but every time I place an order it still charges me £5.99 and I have to request a refund manually through Facebook each time.

Each time they say "It has been handed over to the relevant team". 10 months later it is still broken.

I recently purchased 2 jumpers which I wanted to return. I sent it back, received an email saying we are processing your refund. 2 weeks later - still no refund.

I contacted support via Facebook again and they say "sorry, but the team responsibly for this hasn't actioned it"

What an absolute joke!

Thanks for posting your review and feedback on your recent experience shopping with us.

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you are having applying your Premier delivery and if this hasn't been resolved yet, I understand how you're feeling.

I do want to get this looked into further for you, so I've sent a request through TrustPilot to find out more details on your order. If possible, please include your email address and the order number where you originally purchased our Premier delivery as well as the order number for your recent return.

Awful experience

Awful experience. I ordered online and got it delivered to a different addres 2 blocks away. I managed to eventually get hold of the item but gave me a great headache. Customer service did not care much either. I would avoid at all cost.

long delay in getting refund

I ordered a suit for next day delivery but the package arrived a day late. I contacted customer services and who responded promising a refund which was good. But Burton then delayed by nearly 4 weeks to process the refund because of "errors" in processing, they only paid after I chased multiple times. Coincidence that my wife's refund was also delayed by 4 weeks and she was paid only after she chased Burton as well?

Avoid! Never ordering from this company again!

I placed an order and paid for the annual delivery pass. I received an email to say the item ordered could not be located in their warehouse, so the item ordered AND the delivery pass were BOTH being cancelled by Burton. Following this, I received only a partial refund for the item only, and not for the £9.99 delivery pass.

I contacted customer services who said they would issue the remaining refund and it would be in my account within 5 working days. 7 working days later - no refund. I contacted customer services again to be told:

“Let me get this sorted. I've checked and my colleague already forwarded the details to our finance team. Kindly check your confirmation email as it might be hiding there. ~ Jovelyn”

So, should I assume by that response that the refund had been issued? Was it checked?

I had contacted customer services the second time as the refund is not in my account and I have not received email confirmation to state that the refund has been issued. Telling me to check my email “gets this sorted”?! I contacted customer services again, this time to be told:

“I wish I could speed this up for you, I really do, but we do need to wait for our Finance team to get to this refund and issue it for you. ~ Thomas”

Oh, so the refund has not been issued?!!!

It is now three times contacting customer services to chase a refund for something that Burton themselves cancelled, and at no point has any customer service advisor said that they have done anything to actually chase this refund, or provided an explanation for the delay, even though it is well over the timeframe that Burton themselves said I should have my had my refund by! I placed an order in good faith, why should I be patient in getting my own money back - BEYOND the refund timeframe that was dictated by Burton - for a service not provided?!!!

Evasive and unhelpful customer service!

I am now forced to take further action to get my money back… what a frustrating experience and what an absolute waste of my time! I will not be ordering from this company ever again, and would suggest anyone thinks carefully before giving this company any of your money.

Hi Imran, thank you for taking time to leave a review and I'm sorry to hear about the time it has taken to get this resolved for you. I can assure you this is not the way things usually go here and the service you have reviewed will certainly be addressed.

I do fully appreciate where you're coming from Imran however we do not set the timescales for our finance team, they will set the timescales for themselves and how quickly they can get through their workload.

They don't just deal with orders that have failed to process you see and so they will give themselves a timescale for how long they can resolve matters raised by our customer services team.

On the odd occasion where the team have more of a workload to sort through than anticipated, this is where then the timescale provided will be exceeded which unfortunately, we have no control over but we apologise for.

Please rest assure that the case has been escalated and everything will be done in the meantime to ensure this is resolved for you as soon as possible. Take care for now and I hope you have a great day. - Jack
