Paid extra for next day delivery. When the shoes did not arrive I phoned and was told they hadn't even been despatched. The extra postage was refunded but the service from the store overall was spoiled

Our order experience. 1 went to Castleford outlet and purchased a pair of ' Napa ivory multi} Very pleased 2 While there the assistant ordered a second pair for me online. Napa ll Almond which implied different from ivory. 3 Pair two arrived but were identical to the first pair. Contacted by phone - apologies for error and third pair dispatched but I had to pay again with order.. 4 Had to go back to Castleford for refund 5 Third pair arrived but very disappointing because the colour is almost identical to the first pair. 6 Now have to go back to Castleford to return these and get refund. (40 + miles round trip) Altogether not a good experience.

Although the product is good I had a problem getting into my account and had to phone up. Also the promised cashbook amount through Topcashback didn't materialise! I received much less than anticipated.

Hello, Thank you for your message. I can see you have placed several orders with us so hopefully the account issue was resolved when you contacted my colleague. Unfortunately, we aren't involved with anything to do with TopCashBack so you will need to contact them with regards to the other issue. Kind regards, Rosie, Customer Services.

Hello, Thank you for your message. I am sorry the shoes didn't fit and we were out of stock in the next size up. Whilst we do, wherever possible, aim to maintain an accurate stock reflection on our website, on this occasion, demand had outstripped supply. With regards to returns, as you have suggested, you do pay to return items although you can send them via Collect + for as little as £4.09 or return them to one of our shops, your closest being 6 miles away in Dalton Park. Just for future reference also, we do not charge your account unless we know for definite we have the stock. I hope the above information helps and you have not been put off shopping with us in future. Kind regards, Rosie, Customer Services.

I had an interesting time ordering. Ordering on the website was not too difficult and in due course the order turned up, but I had been sent one sandal of one type and one of another. The customer service people were really good and sorted me out as quickly as they could.

I was allowed to order an item that said was in stock but then I was emailed to say the item wasn't in stock. I think this could be improved.

The website is good and the prices are good. My only complaint is that I ordered on a Monday and paid for express delivery as I needed the shoes by the Thursday for a walking holiday on the Friday. I received an email on the Wednesday confirming delivery on the Thursday so all seemed good, until Thursday morning when I was then told delivery was delayed until the Friday, which was too late. So I ended up with no suitable shoes for my holiday and I'm gutted that I wasted my money.

Hello, Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear you did not have your shoes in time for your holiday. As discussed in my email on the 16th June, your order was delayed unfortunately due to a mis-route by our couriers - please accept my sincere apologies for this. I can see the parcel was signed for on Friday 17th June, although if this was too late for your holiday I will be more than happy to send you a pre-paid label to return them to us for a full refund. I hope this has not put you off shopping with us in future and I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Rosie, Customer Services.

I found that the staff in the Meadowhall store were very unhelpful, I was lookinf for a specific pair that I had seen a while ago in the same store but I just got a blank face when I asked about them. I was then in a debate about sizes as my toddler was measured wrong in your store. If it wasn't for your store being the only one that had the shoes we wanted I definitely wouldn't have bought from them just because of the terrible customer service

I placed an order for a pair of boots size 12 but received a size 8. I contacted you and sent them back. As I needed the footwear for the weekend I placed a separate order for the same style boot in size 12 and again received size 8. I have since returned both pairs.

Very disappointed to learn that I have to pay to return items. I have shopped online for many different shops and this is the first time I have had to pay to return items. It is for that reason that I would not recommend anyone to shop online with Charles Clinkard even tho a great selection of shoes.

My order arrived very promptly, however there was a very obvious flaw in one of the shoes (Hispanitas). So I have had to take them back to the shop and re-order, which is all very frustrating.
