Saint and Sofia?

Anyone here shopped with this brand? There are some questionable reviews out there on refunds taking a very long time. Any experiences of this, quality etc?

They sent me an email inviting me to their sale and I ordered a dress and a top. They didn't fit but when I sent them back they said that as I bought via a private sale I could only have a credit note. So if they send you an email with a link to the website look for very small wording saying private sale. I got my money back after quoting distance selling laws but it took a lot of wrangling and quite a few emails before I did. I wouldn't chance buying from them again even though I like the look of a lot of their clothes.

I bought some trousers from them, but they fitted badly and looked like a cheap supermarket offering. Very overpriced for what they were. I sent them back and had to chase a refund, which wasn’t forthcoming until I hassled them. I wouldn’t buy from them again.

CeeceeBloomingdale · 31/07/2021 17:48

Bought a scarf, dubious quality although I liked the style. I wouldn’t rush to use them again

IIRC there was a long thread on here about their not very impressive customer service, OP.

seconddateshithead · 31/07/2021 18:05

They were appalling

They blocked me on social media when I asked when I would get my refund. THAT'S their level of customer service

Massively overpriced tat too. Seriously nothing going for them!

AnnieSnap · 31/07/2021 18:13

Wow! Thanks girls. I’m glad I asked before taking the plunge 😮

Overpriced and poor quality from my experience I wouldn't shop with them again.

BickleyMama · 01/08/2021 11:07

Hi there! I have bought from Saint and Sofia and have been very happy with the service. The quality is fantastic and return/ refund process has been easy. I have bought a few times and had to return a couple of items that did not suit me. Hope yhat helps!

AnnieSnap · 01/08/2021 11:53

I apologise in advance if I’m wrong, but is Bickleymama actually Saint and Sofia? 🤔

Oh my god that's almost laughable

I don't get why brands do that anyway. Hijack a negative thread and make everything sound so positive and delightful. Surely every other poster saying Saint and Sofia are shit just makes them look ridiculous?

It's like those 5 star robotic reviews surrounded by 1 star ones

But then again I would expect nothing less from Saint and Sofia the utter pile of crap that they are.

SaintandSofia · 02/08/2021 09:34

Faffandahalf · 02/08/2021 09:38

There’s no confusion. She wanted a refund not a credit or exchange. Almost everywhere offers a refund so why don’t you? Hmm

SaintandSofia · 02/08/2021 09:38

Hi there @VenusClapTrapVenusClapTrap, we're sorry to hear on that the trousers were not suitable, this of course is disappointing. We offer a 14 working day refund policy and of course endeavour to process these quicker than this. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our Care Team if we can be of any further assistance on [email protected]

SaintandSofia · 02/08/2021 09:39

PercyPigAndMe · 02/08/2021 09:49

Seems like you've got a bit of an echo going on there Saint & Sofia Grin

Now I've actually worked with this brand and well, I shall say no more Grin

seconddateshithead · 02/08/2021 09:54

Hey there Amber @SaintandSofia

Long time no hear!

YOU were the person who blocked me on Twitter last year!

I've just found the emails I sent after you blocked me.

I'd sent a GDPR request after you repeatedly sent me junk after I unsubscribed three times.

How's the PR drive going?

seconddateshithead · 02/08/2021 09:58

Ah the entirely rational response of a customer service team...

Saint and Sofia?
seconddateshithead · 02/08/2021 10:00

This was after I was promised a response from Amber @SaintandSofia

Yup. Too much of a hassle to worry about piffling data laws. Just block the customer instead!

Hoppinggreen · 02/08/2021 10:05

That doesn’t sound good does it?
I have to say though I had read the previous thread about shitty customer service but spouted a dress I really wanted.
I ordered it and it turned up pretty quickly. Quality’s good and I really like it BUT I haven’t had to send anything back of course so maybe I wouldn’t be as happy if I had

Hi there *@AertexShirt*, so sorry you weren't happy with the scarf purchased. We pride ourselves on every one of our products, using high quality fabrics. Sorry for any disappointment
How strange- I've never ordered anything from S&S! Not even a scarf 😂
RickOShay · 02/08/2021 10:12

Just to say I ordered a couple of t shirts from them, they weren’t quite right. The refund took ages, and I did actually email them to say that I wouldn’t be ordering from them again.
