We drove to Kingston as fast as I could, after having phoned again to advise them that we might have been there just the minute they were closing, and to wait please.
I managed to arrive at the traffic light near the centre 5 minutes before the shop should have shut, so I told my daughters to run there while I was parking.
Conclusion: the two shop assistants who were there had already closed and firmly refused to open, even when my daughter told them they had just to collect an order, that we had called and so on. She was told rudely to come back the next day. My daughter said she felt treated like a beggar. So I tried to phone, but nobody picked up the phone.
I was furious. Surprise and present ruined.
When, after 15 days I went to collect the order, I explained what had happened to the shop assistant, who told me : "Oh, eventually you've got the dress now", without even apologising. She also told me that she wasn't there that day (how could she now?) so I asked to speak with the manager, who, at least, apologised.
When you spend some £ 200 for a dress, that should be a present, and a surprise, you imagine a completely different treatment. I believe that the price you pay includes something immaterial, it's a treat and something that you may remember in the future.
Well, all of this was completely spoiled and I was very disappointed.
So when I saw the dress, full of wrinkles, despite the manager offered to iron it, I saw just a plain normal dress whose cost was extortionate for what it was. And left it there. Sorry Reiss, but never again.
I’ve never had cause to return any clothing, to be fair sometimes the quality can be hit and miss, but I accept that manufacture on a smaller scale can have its own problems... broken zips, frayed cuffs, bobbling.. life is too short to get upset.. 3 weeks ago I bought some navy blue chords. They were a lovely fit, the colour and cut was divine. I wore them around the house 3-4 days. But last night I noticed a small hole had appeared on my thigh.. it was no bigger than 3-4mm dia. Thinking it was a shame I’d take them back on Friday knowing a very helpful shop assistant who knows me well would be working. I hoped to show him them. Sort something out and It would be fine.. I also drew out a wedge of cash to buy some other temptations in store too... On entering the shop I took them from my bag showed them to the shop assistant that was quite un known to me.. but sadly before he’d even looked closely at them he started spouting a very confusing response. There was Very little consistency in his explanation. He said he didn’t believe it was a fault in the fabric.. That he would not accept my story and they would need to be assessed by head office.. this might take 3 weeks.. On further discussion he became very argumentative. I asked him to sit down on a seat so we could both discuss it and I might understand what he was explaining. His explanation still was very inconsistent and he accused me of being ageist against him. He told me that he wouldn’t accept the facts from me.. Then he said it wasn’t up to him. I then asked him for a second opinion from one of his colleagues in store. He was ages so I went downstairs to find him talking very unprofessionally about me and his side of the discussion... Please can a reasonable person contact and help me... I don’t want to shop anywhere else..
