Rogue trader
I ordered a bespoke rg Italy cooler rug and saddle cloth from Clare at equillence , Ireland,
Upon placing my order Clare said they were waiting to start making them as soon as I paid , and they would be with me within 7 days , 4 weeks later and they turned up in the wrong colours despite me sending a picture of the said items , and her response was that on her computer they looked a different colour and if I wanted the colour I had actualy ordered then I would have to pay more money , bearing in mind I had already paid £330 , so I asked for a refund as they were not what I ordered , and she initially refused to give me one , so when I asked for various bits of paperwork and threatened to take her to court she agreed to a refund...
I posted the items back to her at a cost of £28 , and after 2 weeks I asked where was my refund as it wasn’t showing in the account. , she said she had done it and when I asked for the date of the refund her reply was ‘ keep checking your account it will turn up ‘ !!!!
I then asked for my postage costs too as she had not refunded them and her reply was ‘ I think I’ve been fair enough with you have a happy life and annoy somebody else ‘ !!!!!
Bearing in mind she ordered the wrong colours not me , and this whole process had been going on for 3 months. , so I’m not sure where her attitude came from and for a so called high end top notch equestrian gear supplier , then her customer service skills leave a lot to be desired..
I most certainly would advise anybody considering ordering from her to think carefully , as once she takes your money then she fails to return calls and offers no after sales service
I have kept screen shots of all our conversations , so beware of the seller with a forked tongue
