Fantastic service from a lovely patient lady call Gill at the Oldham Store
Amazing customer service in Oldham
I visited Clark’s in Oldham to exchange my daughter’s shoes. We were served by Zak, who was absolutely wonderful! My daughter had tried on a number of shoes but wanted a particular one which didn’t fit correctly and she became visibly upset. Zak said she couldn’t see a child upset and found a way around this by adding different insoles until they fit perfectly. Customer service at its finest! Thank you Zak for making my daughter’s day. 😊

Unable to return unwanted items to the local high street Clark’s store was told items could only be returned to Clark’s outlet stores which is difficult as its further for me to travel. Previously I have returned items at the local store so I’m unsure what’s changed will not be ordering from Clark’s outlet again due to sheer inconvenience

Gill at the Oldham store was so helpful today! She professionally measured both my 15 year old and 8 year old’s feet, advising on sizes of school shoes and explaining as she went along so I
could understand her rationale. She filled me with lots of confidence, and spent time with us without rushing when we were deciding on the right pair of school shoes. Really happy with the service!!
