“I was sent an email, quite a few days after my original order, with a photograph showing one of the pair was discoloured due to being On display in store. They offered me a reduced price or a refund of which I took (the discolouration was prominent). I was disappointed. Luckily I ordered another style.”

“Both times going into Beggs I have not been impressed with the customer service. First time the lady told us we weren’t allowed in the “fitting zone” during a shoes fitting. Why would u fit shoes next to the display of shoes?”

“My first order with you went so good. I got my shoe it fit me I loved it and it came in a timely matter. So when I received my second order and the shoe was too small. I was very upset that to return them to you that I had to pay for shipping. The cost of shipping which was was over half of what the shoes cost. That was the cheapest and that didnt get a signature to make sure you received it. I was very upset and now I have a pair of shoes in my closet that I cant even wear.”

“My only problem came when I decided to return the shoes. I realize the cost of the return shipping from the USA to England was not Begg’s fault. But it was expensive and it had not been prior to 2020. I am afraid I will not be ordering again because this possibility. Perhaps after the pandemic things can go back to normal.”

Dear Betty Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear you were not happy with the costs of the returns. There are many benefits to shopping with us from the US, such as having access to a wide variety of European designers and not having to pay VAT on goods shipped outside the UK and EU. Unfortunately returns shipping costs are not one of those benefits but I hope you consider shopping with us in the future. Kind regards Faith Begg Shoes

Hello Jennifer Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear that the delivery took longer than expected. We usually advise delivery to Ireland takes 3-5 working days and I can see that your parcel was delivered well outside of that. Looking at the tracking information I can see that we shipped your order on the 19th October and it left the UK on the 21st October. It did not arrive in Ireland until the 4th November and it was delivered that same day. I will investigate this further with Royal Mail, as we have not been advised of any significant delays to Ireland. I hope all other parts of our service were acceptable, and thank you for bringing the delivery issue to my attention. If there is anything else I can do to assist you, please do not hesitate to get in touch by emailing info@beggshoes.com Kind regards Faith Begg Shoes

“Really disappointed when reading your reviews on Reiker Boots. Was thinking about buying a pair but not sure now as I have read a review by a customer which has put doubts in my head. Have previously bought boots and shoes from store in Lerwick when i stayed up there. In two minds now to visit your store.”

Hi Morven, thank you for reading our reviews. We do our best to point out the advantages of our products, but we also highlight any potential limitations. We hope to offer helpful, expert advice to our customers, who can make well informed decisions. As a small and independent shoe retailer, this is what sets us apart from bigger chains and online-only retailers. Overall, we would say that Rieker is a fantastic brand but like any other brand, they do have their limitations and we would be delighted to welcome you to our store so we can restore your confidence in our expert customer service. We're going to reach out to you directly and hope we can address your concerns. Thanks!

Dear Elizabeth Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear you are still waiting for your shoes to arrive. I have checked your order and I can see that we received and shipped your order on the same day, 11th September. The shoes left the UK the following day on the 12th of September. I have contacted Royal Mail to find out if they have further updates on your parcel and I will be in touch by private email. Royal Mail has previously advised that some international parcels are experiencing minor delays, but most parcels are being delivered within the advised 10-15 working days. I am sorry to hear that your parcel has been one of the few that has experienced delays caused by Covid-19. I will be in touch with you in private with more information once I have heard from Royal Mail. Kind regards Faith Begg Shoes

“I ordered two pairs of ballerina style shoes which arrived within approximately 4 days. Within 4 weeks of wearing the navy pair it became obvious they needed re-heeling. I returned them, as advised, on 1st September. Over 3 weeks later and I have not been updated..... The second (lilac) pair have been worn once only so far. I am hoping they will last longer!!!!”

Hello Ron Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear you were not happy with the shoes purchased on this occasion. Fit can vary from brand to brand and factors such as width fitting, upper material and toe shape can have an impact on how the shoes fit. As we are a small, family-run, independent business, we do not offer free returns but our prepaid Royal Mail labels cost just £2 which is deducted from the overall refund. If I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Kind regards Faith Customer Service Begg Shoes

“The returns process is efficient enough, and I wonder how much profit there is in returns. I felt there was some resistance to feedback, but I’m not a twit. I get the impression a lot of customers have raised the fact that the shoes are too narrow at the toes, so give this some thought before you order online. Such a shame as the shoes are exceptionally attractive.”

Hello Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear that you are still waiting to receive your parcel. Very occasionally delivery can suffer minor delays, and this time of year has been especially busy with parcels taking a little longer to reach recipients. Our delivery partners Royal Mail normally have exceptional levels of service, and I am sorry to hear that this has not been the case on this rare occasion. I have sent an email to you direct with more information on your parcel. If I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at info@beggshoes.com Kind regards Faith Customer Services Begg Shoes
