Potentially the worst "customer service" I've experienced.
I started taking swimming seriously for the past year and Speedo is the brand that I use for swimsuits.
I've always ordered from 3rd parties in Amazon so I hadn't had the misfortune to deal with their poor customer service.
I'm well aware that the sizing of the swimsuits isn't very inclusive (I'm fairly fit and wouldn't say I'm overweight, but still wear one of their biggest sizes).
I saw online that there was a sale on Speedo's website and fell for it.
I ordered a swimsuit in the same size I have my other 4 Speedo's swimsuits.
I received it, tried it and felt loose, still I was dumb enough to give it a try in the water. It just didn't fit, sizing was completely off compared to my other suits.
I reached out to customer service and again, I was dumb enough to be completely honest and said I used the swimsuit once. I wanted an exchange because I liked the swimsuit but not the sizing; but the website only allows for returns, so that's why I tried using customer service.
Right away I was told I wasn't getting a refund because I had used it. I understand the policies, I understand that they don't do refunds on used swimsuits; what was surprising was the complete lack of professionalism and not even trying to offer a solution, like not a refund but a slight discount to purchase the right size. Nothing.
I kept trying, but unfortunately every time I'd send a message, a different person would reply, every single one of them worse than the previous one.
Here's where it gets weird. I received on my email a QR code to do the return (I initially had tried after my conversation to get it, but the website wouldn't allow me). So I took the QR code, went to USPS and did the return. I informed through the chain of messages to customer service about this, to which they responded "we're not going to refund you, we'll just send you back the swimsuit".
This is when I decided to file a claim with my bank, it didn't make sense to send back a swimsuit that I had payed for, without potentially getting my money nor the swimsuit back.
They kept repeating they wouldn't give me my money back.
Then I receive an email "we've received your return, you'll get your refund in 3-5 days".
What was the point of making it literally impossible to communicate, made me regret ever getting a swimsuit from Speedo again; just to end up doing the easiest thing that was to just refund me?
Spare yourself from buying directly from their website, no matter how good the deal is; it's not worth it.
