Just seen that they are arguing on Twitter with someone and they are being unprofessional by calling them names and swearing in their posts. This screams of childish behaviour!

Another parcel has arrived from Sock Council and, having been buying from them about a year, I am a firm convert. Their socks are of the highest quality and I haven't seen such a great range of design... See more

The socks were very bitter

The socks were very bitter, crumbled apart at the first sign of bad weather. Left me with a really sickly feeling after dealing with them.

This is clearly an attempt to harm the business from someone who declines to provide more information.

Fantastic socks. Very well made. You won’t find any other socks as good as these.

STEER WELL CLEAR IF YOU EXPECT ANY POST…

STEER WELL CLEAR IF YOU EXPECT ANY POST PURCHASE CUSTOMER CARE.

I bought two pairs of the Intercity socks. One for a friend - the other for me. They looked good and were unique. Wore them once a month from May to December once per month. That's 8-9 times - and 8-9 washes. One sock fell apart. Cost £9.99 (for the pair that I kept).

I don't normally complaint about something so trivial as a pair of socks - but did so due to them being not exactly cheap.

I emailed the owner a photo expecting back a simple 'sorry - here's a refund or exchange, please send the good back'. I was gobsmacked when the refusal came back (with no name on the email).

When I said that I would consider taking the matter to my credit card company as a dispute for charge-back (faulty goods), the owner responded simply with the one liner (and again, no name) - "do what you want mate!".

Will not use again.

Hi, we asked you follow our Returns Policy for inspection in line with UK online sales law and you declined to return the item you claim was faulty, instead threatening to contact your card company. We will always inspect items where there is no obvious manufacturing error. If there is an obvious manufacturing error (incredibly rare) we will immediately send a new pair. Instead of working within our published policies you decided to threaten to take the issue to your card issuer (you did not do this). This matter could have been easily resolved had you followed our policies. Only you know why you chose to not raise a charge back or return the item instead leaving a negative review. We would also question the expectation to get a refund after wearing socks from May to December (7 months), with one pair being absolutely fine. We do not insure socks against wearer damage and we don't think most reasonable people would expect a brand new pair of socks after this timescale and without any inspection. We have sold thousands of pairs of these socks without this issue appearing to other people. We follow our policies and we ask customers to do the same within UK sales law and as the vast majority of retailers do.
