Ordered uniform for summer. Was in stock, can be quite expensive and delivery was quite slow, but is better quality than most.

Customer Service Absent?

I was looking to speak to a member of the customer service team regarding my recent order. Webchat isn't manned, phones I gave up after 20mins and the callback option I chose still hasnt 'called back' 4 hours after selected. I don't hold hope I will get one. Very disappointed for a supposedly reputable company.

Order mishandled, customer left in the dark

I recently ordered scrubs and a fleece from Alexandra Workwear and unfortunately, my experience has been very disappointing.

After placing the order, I did not receive any email confirmation. The only communication I received was tracking information directly from DHL. As I work long shifts in healthcare, I arranged for delivery to a service point, but when DHL attempted this, the delivery was apparently refused and sent back to the depot. The tracking advised me to contact the sender.

I used Alexandra’s online contact form to ask for the next steps but never received a reply — even after three weeks. I then had to call their customer service line. I was told they would arrange with DHL for re-delivery within a couple of days, but no delivery ever came, and I received no new tracking number or updates.

When I called again, the advisor had limited information about what had happened and eventually confirmed the order had been returned to Alexandra. I was told I would automatically receive a refund. While I was given an apology, there was no explanation for the repeated failures in communication, no updates throughout the process, and no attempt to offer a solution or reassurance that the same issues wouldn’t happen again. I was simply advised to place a new order, but with no guarantee of avoiding the same experience.

As a customer, I feel very let down. The lack of communication and follow-up meant I could easily have been left waiting indefinitely for items I urgently needed for work. The service felt dismissive and offered no reparations beyond a basic apology.

Unfortunately, this experience has left me with no confidence in ordering from Alexandra Workwear again.

Frequent order issues

I like the quality of the garments, but I have to say I've had errors with numerous orders, particularly ones involving embroidery. To be fair, the customer services after has been helpful but I would really rather not waste time having to sort issues and wait for replacement garments.
One of the biggest things Alexandra can do is improve the online ordering process... From when you add the garment to your basket, you are not able to check any personalisations. This includes when the order arrives with the delivery note, and on the online account history.
So please... If you are ordering be certain to add to your basket very carefully. And Alexandra... Please sort this out!

Disappointing

Really sad to say that this company is not the same as it used to be. I have ordered from them for almost 40 years. My mother recommended them as she used them in her dental practice before that. The quality of scrubs is disappointing. The sizing has changed so the tunics are 3 inches longer which makes the patch pockets too low to be practical and the short version of trousers are 4.5 inches longer. It was difficult to order online as the order was cancelled numerous times. The 1 star is for the lovely ladies on the phone who tried to help and advise me and even they were having problems with the system.

Really lovely company

Really lovely company, great products, have used them a few times over the years, I messed up with one order and decided it was far easier to order what I wanted using the codes instead of a description, that way I get what I want. great company, great products
