Terrible Customer Service & Still No Refund
Rant: DO NOT buy from swimsuitsforall.com! Good lord. So, a friend and I placed an order from here on July 8th, 2019. We paid $30 extra for express shipping. On July 17th, I came home to a notice on my door from Canada Post saying I owed $70 in custom charges. Now, while I am well aware this is not the companies fault, this has never happened to me and I was disappointed. With the USD to CAD conversion at what it is, we had already spent over $200 and were not willing to spend another $70 for our bathing suits. So, I phoned the company to make sure I could send it back, asked if there was any charges associated with that and was told no, simply refuse the package and we will refund your money when we receive the package back within 1-2 weeks. Okay, great. So, I phoned my local post office and asked them to ship it back. They advised they would. I checked with them again in a week to make sure it was sent and they advised it was shipped back that day and sent across the border within a few days. Now, I have been in contact with this company for the past month, only to received terrible customer sevice. I have been extremely polite, as I have worked in customer service in the past and I understand that it is not the agents fault. I have been hung up on 4 times. I have been been called a liar, and told that "there's no way you sent it back when you said you did because we would have received it by now". I've been told it take 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and even 3 months for return shipping. The tracking number I was provided with (from the company) never worked. I was told that they have absolutely no way to track the package. I was told twice that my order number doesn't exist, even after spelling it out phonetically, and then hung up on. I've been put on hold for 10+ minutes at a time, without anyone coming back to check on me, only to be left thinking they're avoiding me. Then, finally, on August 20th, I was told that they were able to track the package, the last update is that it was in Chicago on August 8th. Chicago is a 3 hour drive from Indianapolis (which is where their company is located). I don’t understand why it would take 2+ weeks for it to get from Chicago to Indianapolis. I asked them to provide me the tracking number, but it didn’t work and she couldn’t give me an answer as to why they could apparently track it but I couldn’t. So I once again politely ended the conversation. That is also the day I wrote them a message on Facebook, explaining the lack of customer service I have received (on the phone until now, figured I’d try a different channel) and I just simply wanted my refund. They got back to me today after I sent an additional message, only to tell me that they are only giving me a partial refund because I have to pay for the shipping to and from their store. Seriously?! I didn’t even accept the package. I checked with them before hand to make sure there wouldn’t be any charges. Honestly, I wouldn’t even be complaining if I had have received good or even fair customer service along this way, but I didn’t. I received horrible customer service and definitely will not be ordered from here again. I’m honestly just exhausted from dealing with this, and don't feel that anyone should have to deal with this. I should have listened to the reviews. On another note, I had absolutely amazing service and found the perfect bathing suit from the girls at Pennington’s. Highly recommend! They were kind, and courteous, and extremely helpful and honest! Thanks girls.
