I would never step into a H.Samuel store again. After deciding to purchase my wife a special gift for her birthday, I visited the local store, After viewing the area where the gift I wanted was on show, a young customer advisor appeared, I expressed an interest into a lovely necklace I had seen and requested if I could view it. Now I hadn’t gone in dressed in a 3 piece suit, but fairly smart, so when he spoke to me in the way he did I was taken back and the look from the other staff was belittling and questioned my affordability of such item and the actions to ensure the tray of goods was protected suggested that I was likely to run off with without paying, this shocked me somewhat and if it hadn’t been for the fact I really thought the necklace was “the one” I would have left, but was determined to buy it. Now I must stress this item was not mega money, but into days climate, the item was expensive and a item I would buy on a special occasion only and was quite proud of my choice and could vision my wife’s smile when she opened it!. So the advisor took me to the till to pay for it, we went through the usual questions, insurance, how are you paying etc, I paid and then he disappeared, only to return with a box which was no bigger than a match box and proceeded to stuff this beautiful gift in, I asked him “what are you doing” his response,”we don’t have any bigger boxes so this will have to do” I proceeded to explain that I had had just spent a lot of money on a gift and expected it to be presented in the correct box, his response “do you want it or not”.I was in total disbelief, in my eagerness to not to be in the shop any further, I took the gift and left with no further words spoken, I was fuming, I have never felt so unwelcome and belittled in a shop, H.Samuels you should be ashamed
