terrible customer service

terrible customer service. Initially they sent an empty plastic bag (by tracked delivery). Then sent a "replacement" but got th order wrong (sent unfinished trousers rather than the length ordered and paid for). Weeks of chasing but Hawes and Curtis have not resolved this issue

The process of returning an unwanted order, and the complexity of responding to H & C, are both unacceptably long and difficult. Others manage it with minimum trouble - Amazon, John Lewis etc etc. Why can't you?

Great Product and bad customer services

The quality of the item is not questionable but the customer service has no compassion to us. I ordered a suit which turn to be not available during dispatch. Their response was only to give a refund without any compensation.
Now I have to order and pay additional delivery fee. I kept repeating myself explaining to the situation however the response was like no one is reading my mail.

Don't buy outside UK......

Long term costumer in the london shop. Order online from Denmark; the return cost is more than the product itself.
No help in customer service after dialogue. Basiclly: you are on your own.
Now I have 3 shirts not for use.
Last time to buy from a company that don't care about clients.

BTW this was my second call, as first time the promised to help and did not send email.

Missing Item - Poor Customer Service

I ordered 2 shirts and 2 pairs of trousers online from H&C. When the shipment arrrived, 1 shirt was missing and so I contacted customer services.

After protracted email back and forth, H&C wouldn’t budge and concluded the ‘warehouse says’ the missing item was in the original shipment. This is odd because it really wasn’t and I’m pretty good at counting up to 4, so I’m certain that only 3 items were in the box!

So I’ve decided to return everything (all 3 items anyway) and now consider myself very much as a former customer. I won’t do business with a company that implies that I’m misrepresenting the truth.

So good luck if you decide to order, but hope you won’t experience any missing items!

Update - reply from H&C (below) demonstrates continued inability to respond to the issue of the missing item. I will never order from this company again. Very poor customer service.

Hi Geoff

Thank you for your review.

I'm sorry to hear that you are unhappy with our customer service. I have looked into this order and the emails between you and our customer service agent. I can see that a response was provided to your initial email explaining that the investigation with the warehouse has confirmed all shirts were packed correctly and delivered correctly with no damage to the box or packaging upon receiving the order.

Based on the result of the investigation, we will be unable to offer you a refund (or replacement) I am afraid.

Touker, please sort out your customer service and shirt quality. We know you like to keep your costs down, but I think you are obviously concentrating on your bottom line and not your brand.

Disappointed with Misleading Fit and Inflexible Alteration Policy

I recently had an unfortunate experience purchasing a three-piece slim-fit suit from Hawes & Curtis for an upcoming wedding. Anticipating the urgency of my need, I opted to utilize their free alteration service to customize the trouser length upon ordering. However, this benefit quickly turned into a significant inconvenience.

Despite being advertised as “slim fit,” the entire suit was markedly larger than similar suits from other brands, which typically fit me perfectly. This discrepancy in sizing not only made the suit look awkward and ill-fitting but also highlighted a significant inconsistency in the product description versus the actual product.

Moreover, the alteration policy, which at first seemed like a thoughtful convenience, effectively became a trap. Once altered, the trousers were no longer returnable, leaving me stuck with an unsuitable product. This policy, coupled with the suit’s poor fit, resulted in additional costs and a scramble to find a suitable alternative at the last minute.

I am extremely disappointed with my purchase and the lack of flexibility in resolving such issues. I expected much more from a brand that prides itself on quality and customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would caution potential buyers about the sizing issues and the rigid alteration policy that may leave you with a non-returnable, ill-fitting suit.

My first time shopping with Hawes & Curtis as an international customer and I am so disappointed. I ordered for 4 shirts multibuy and they shipped only 3 shirts to Canada. I have reached out to them about my experience and nothing has been done about it.

I would never recommend this Company

I wouldn't touch this Company with a barge pole! In my view, it is professionally unethical. I ordered a ladies shirt at £45 and was offered a discount of £5 when ordering. With postage my total was £45.45. When the shirt arrived it was too small, even though their sizing Chart indicated Size 16 would fit. I returned the shirt together with the Invoice, hand writing an explanation and requesting a Size 18. Tried constantly to contact the Company but to no avail and sent them a message via Sorrel on the Website. I was notified that I would be refunded and when I queried this I was told that I had requested a second Size 16 which would be the same size as the one I had returned! They also (supposedly) enclosed my Order Form in the email which had no hand written message by me. I subsequently received £37.50 refund which means I paid IN TOTAL, £13.40 for postage and no Shirt. Totally disgusted by their tactics.

I can see that a response was provided to your initial email offering to help with this situation, explaining that due to you requesting a size 16 in the return, a refund was processed as this was the original size you purchased.

Shirts don't last long, sizing has changed

Ordered exactly same shirt for work few times. Sizing had changed and shirts last no longer than a year.
Contacted you on your Facebook (you keep posting so must be online every day) but no reply for about two weeks now!
I will be getting my shirts from elsewhere where it will last for that price.
