No goodwill
This is the email I sent to SG regarding a recent transaction
I doubt this will get me anywhere but I am going to complain anyway and post on social media media tos we what other people’s experiences have been.
I bought a shirt from North Rocks Suzanne Grae store one week ago.
The shirt does not work with the clothing I had intended it for. Therefore I decided to return it.
Unfortunately, I mislaid the receipt. Totally my own fault.
HOWEVER, the tags were still attached and the original price I paid. It was clearly unworn and the store attendant saw me walk in with the item.
Further, there is a record of the financial transaction on my bank details that clearly shows the original amount I paid.
But because the store had 30% off on the particular day I decided to return the item, it scanned at $15 less than I paid and that was all that I could recoup.
In effect, I donated $15 to Suzanne Grae.
While I sort of understand the policy - presumably you are afraid all your customers are thieves or scammers - there is such a lack of goodwill, in a store that I often visit and from where I have purchased many items, that it just leads me to decide that I should stick to online shopping where I get free returns, comparable value for clothing and fast customer service.
The staff member I spoke to could not even tell me when the sale would end so I could come back on a day when it would scan at its full price again. She was not particularly polite and almost dismissive.
As a busy working woman, I do not have time for this.
I realise I should have been more careful with my receipt but you should be offering online receipts anyway.
This Disappointing service will end up seeing SG going the way of so many other retailers.
I will use my store credit for the amount of $34 in lieu of a $50 purchase but after that, I will shop elsewhere.
