1 of 3 orders I'm disappointed with

1 of 3 orders I'm disappointed with, the authentication process doesn't seem to be in check. You would expect to get what you have paid a premium for. Will be last time I will be placing an order unfortunately, not without any buyer's protection.

Hi Lewis - Sorry to feel you hear this way, we don't think we've heard from you directly regarding feedback regarding the authentication of your orders. It would be fantastic to hear from you and we can look to make things right. Please reach out directly to info@thesolesupplier.co.uk with "Trustpilot" in the email subject and we'll check this out for you. Please ensure to add all 3 order numbers.

Please note - All orders are verified and the buyer is protected in all cases where something goes wrong.

Fantastic service

I was hesitant of making my purchase initially but after reading these reviews I felt more confident of going ahead… and I’m very pleased I did! I placed my order on Wednesday and received my trainers the next day! They are perfect and exactly what I had hoped for. Highly recommend and will definitely use The Sole Supplier again.

A really good and reliable service

I was worried as it was the first time I’d used a service like this but I have nothing but good things to say. The process was easy, the shoes came quickly and in perfect condition. Will be using sole supplier again!

Don't recommend!

The minute I put the order through I emailed to ask to cancel it before it was processed. They didn't care. They said all orders are final. Clearly just wanted to hold onto the sale. Won't be ordering again, Don't recommend. I get it if the request to cancel was some time after, for example a day or so, or the order was already shipped. However this was immediate and they still declined. Which all other brands offer it as part of their service. Don't recommend!!

Hi Natalia - Thank you for your review. As stated during the checkout process, all sales are final as The Sole Supplier is a Marketplace and therefore you are purchasing from an individual rather than a business. Despite this, our customer service team escalated this and I can see that your product has been safely returned and you have been issued a full refund.

I was skeptical at first with it being a marketplace, however when I expressed my concern I got a reply within 10 minutes, confirming they will contact the seller straight away. Then confirmed 90% the day it would be delievered. The exact date I receive delivery, I have a email to ensure I’m happy with my purchase. I can not fault anything from my purchase to the customer service to the price considering these are in high demand I was unable to find them anywhere. Recommend Caitlyn was fantastic

Superb little business

Really fast, reliable service and the verification service offers peace of mind. Great that they show you alternative sellers with cheaper prices, and you get tracking on your order. Superb little business.

Stay clear of this company they will not offer refunds or accept returns, they will mess you around asking for photo's then say they will pass it over to their fraud squad as they are not the foot wear they dispatched but when I asked for the Fraud details they failed to issue so I've gone back to my bank and I'm in the process of reporting them to trading standards
