No cancellations, no refunds & no returns….
I purchased a pair of trainers on 24.03.23 & immediately after I had purchased them, I realised that I had made a mistake & needed to cancel the order & be issued with a refund. This process is pretty much standard & an easy process with 99% of online retailers…. Not with Bodega….🤦🏼♂️ I live in the UK & I have never purchased from the US, let alone Bodega, so I admit I was a bit naive when placing an order with them. I politely contacted them & explained my reasons for wanting to cancel & they abruptly replied with “ Hey Leigh, unfortunately, this is a Final Sale order sorry to report” very odd I thought, so I contacted them a few more times & they refused to answer my emails. When they did, it was rude, of poor grammar & not helpful in the slightest…. I have pleaded with Bodega to cancel my order, but they refuse & wont budge. I will now be forced to keep an item I don’t want & I will be out of pocket by a lot of money, as they also don’t accept returns….? 🤷♂️🤦🏼♂️ Their last email actually stated this…. “ Hey Leigh, unfortunately, per our strict policy this is a final sale order sorry to report it Any additional follow up will not be answered as we've let you know the policy in place All the best” Is my that great customer service….🥴 After reading Bodega’s copy & paste reply, it is even clearer that this company shouldn’t be trading. How can anyone have a policy that states no cancellations, no returns & no refunds??? That surely cannot be legal. Also having seen the reviews for Bodega online now, it is crystal clear that I am not the only one who has experienced poor service from them. It’s a miracle that they are still trading??? Hopefully if people keep reading reviews like mine & many others, Bodega will be no more, as customers spend their well earned money elsewhere, for a better experience….🤞

Hello Leigh and sorry to hear that you did not have a pleasant experience with us. This incident has to do with our policy concerning items labeled as QS Final Sale items. These items, like it mentions on the product page one purchases from, plus on the website under policy, is that of a strict sense. We do not allow the customer to cancel nor edit anything about an order that contains such items. Our Customer Support's job is to uphold this policy in the face of multiple attempts to sway us to bend. Once again, we are sorry to hear you do not agree and therefore it created a frustrating time for you but we do have this policy for a reason and we ask for any and all customers to respect and adhere to them. Thank you.
