The worst customer services experience ever. They delivered my item very late so I emailed their customer services team for a refund on my delivery fee. I used the web form on their website to send my request as I couldn’t find a contact email address. I got an automated email back saying I could expect a reply within 24 hours. 5 days later I still have no reply. I email again, I contact their social media team, I email another one - all attempts at contact completely and totally IGNORED. It gets to 8 days without any contact and I decide enough is enough. I spend an hour on hold to customer services after being told I’m ‘1st in the queue’ at the start of the call. I speak with the rudest girl with the biggest attitude. When I explain the situation she tries to tell me I’ve not sent any emails and must have typed the wrong address. When I explained that I used the web form on the river island website - and suggested that must mean their link is broken - she agreed ‘well the web form must be broken then’. When I told her I’d also had automated responses from the river island email address she didn’t know how to respond, stumbled on her words, and her attitude became even worse. She gave me the email address for customer services - which is the same email address I’ve been being ignored on - to send a complaint to. I did that 2 days ago now and still no contact from the team - but I have been sent 2 emails from river island requesting feedback on ‘how their customer services team did’. It’s honestly excruciatingly embarrassing to run a business this way. No wonder river island are going under! If anyone wants to contact someone at river island - the CEO email is will.kernan@river-island.com - I’ve contacted him in the hopes that he gets annoyed enough by customer emails that he actually sorts out his company’s customer services. Because they are AWFUL. I’m on day 9 and still nothing from customer services except a request for feedback. I’ll never, ever use river island again. I hadn’t used them for years anyway because of how dated they’ve become but I figured I’d buy some work clothes. I won’t be making the mistake again.
