The Birkenstock clogs that I ordered…

The Birkenstock clogs that I ordered arrived scuffed and marked. I contacted customer services who said that each pair of shoes is checked thoroughly before dispatching. This obviously wasn’t the case this time around. I returned the shoes.

Item wasn’t as described or shown on website - I was then charged to return it! Customer service poor, would avoid and use others, maybe selling fake goods given item didn’t match photos

I feel misled by Tower

I feel misled by Tower.

I signed up to their newsletter and opened an account because an offer stated that return postage would be refunded. I met those conditions, yet the refund didn’t happen and I was still charged for the return.

When I contacted customer service, I was told that I hadn’t met the conditions for the refund. However, I had signed up to the newsletter and opened an account as required. I didn't feel they weren’t receptive to resolving this and I was left with the fee. I would not have purchased without this offer.

My previous review of this experience was taken down after the company disputed it through Trustpilot’s moderation process, so I persisting and reposting my account of what happened because its important to me to share my experience so others can decide for themselves whether this feels fair.

Hey Emma,  

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to see that you were unhappy with our service.  

Our returns are free if you have a free account with us and are an active subscriber to our email marketing, however a fee of £4 is charged if you use TOWER’s optional pre-paid return labels without an account and subscription. Unfortunately, as you have provided no order or contact details we are unable to clarify the status of your account/subscription.

We would like to assure you that we are always happy for customers to share their experiences, however, your previous review was removed by Trust Pilot after they determined that it violated their defamation policy.

If you have any other questions please feel free to contact us.  

Kind regards,
TOWER London

Great online shopping experience

First time buying from this company. Very good choice of products and prices are cheapest I could find for the Hunter wellies. Delivery was very prompt. Thank you.

Beware refund policy email marketing

I bought shoes, they didn't fit so I sent them back for a refund. Their refund policy says you need to be signed up for email marketing for free returns. I did sign up for email marketing as I knew there'd be a chance of a return. They are claiming that I was not signed up for email marketing and are refusing to refund the £4 refund delivery fee. Really disappointing.
