Fantastic customer service

The gentleman who measured my daughter's feet in Affinity Clarks Fleetwood was absolutely fantastic. He was so patient with her, very helpful and went above and beyond to find my daughter the perfect pair of shoes and sandals. Highly recommended. Thank you so much!

10 years of brand loyalty ignored over defective, crumbling school shoes (Case 104243 - 125063)

​I have bought Clarks school shoes every year for 10 years. This year, a £54 pair completely disintegrated, with the soles crumbling away. Customer service admitted in writing that the materials failed to meet their standards, but they have refused to offer a fair remedy and are now completely ignoring my emails. They refuse to refund me or even issue a deadlock letter.

Credit to Samuel (Thurrock Lakeside)

What made this a good experience? In a word, Samuel.

Underwhelming online order took us in-store for return and replacement. This experience has reminded us of the difference between online convenience and personal service. Samuel was polite, friendly, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you.

Do NOT buy online. Wont refund when Evri loose shoes.

Do NOT buy online! I purchased two pairs of shoes. As with other reviewers on here my shoes never arrived. The tracking from Evri was not updated. After a week of emails and phonecalls they acknowledge the items are missing. I ask for a refund. They refuse offering to either " try find replacements depending on stock" which actually they cant do as sold out of my size or an ecard!!!! Refusing to refund my origional payment as refered to under their own policy! And also completely against the consumer rights act. I have contacted them again and if they continue to refuse I shall have to take further action. I am actually wondering if they are now a scam. I will never buy from them again and urge others to avoid them like the plague.

Discovered Clarks in the shopping…

Discovered Clarks in the shopping centre down at Chatham and was most impressed by the amount of stock that they had on offer and the discounts involved. I normally shop for my son’s shoes in Clarks and the football shoes in wide are not that easy to find at a discount so this place is a real treasure. Alison assisted me and did the measurement of my son’s feet as well as telling me how quickly they would expect to go up in sizes et cetera, so all in all extremely helpful.

Exceptional Customer Service at the Reading Store - Praise for Emily

I am writing to share an absolutely amazing experience my son and I had at the Clarks Reading High Street store today, all thanks to a member of their team named Emily.
We went in to buy new school shoes for my 11-year-old son, who is starting secondary school this September. From start to finish, Emily was phenomenal. She began by measuring his feet and, showing great professionalism, even got a colleague to do a second check to ensure absolute accuracy.
She then picked out a range of potential shoes that would fit him well and brought out several pairs for him to try on. Throughout the entire 20 to 30 minutes, Emily showed an incredible amount of patience and had a lovely smile on her face. My son had plenty of questions, and she answered every single one of them gracefully, keeping up the exact same positive, high energy the entire time.
Thanks to her dedication, we found the perfect pair of shoes that he absolutely loves.
You don't get this level of care everywhere nowadays, and it is incredibly reassuring to know that such amazing, customer-focused people still exist. Emily deserves a 5-star rating for delivering an astonishing customer experience. She is an absolute credit to your Reading branch and to the Clarks brand as a whole.

Grimsby

Visited Grimsby store today and was very pleased with the customer service I received from Jaya. She was friendly and helpful and answered all questions I had about the trainers I was interested in. She took her time and didn't add any pressure to buy but informed me of the offers that they had.I did buy the trainers which I am very happy with,but wanted to mention the high standard of customer service Jaya gave thank you.

Great customer service.

I was helped by a lady called Ruw who tried very efficiently to help me find sandals for my awkward feet. Although I couldn't find what I needed she was really pleasant and courteous.
