Cynthia Rowley makes pretty beautiful and unique items, but the customer service offered by her e-commerce/website team is so abysmal that I vow never to shop here again, and here is why. I placed two orders for approximately $1,000 on September 15, 2019 and after a week of not receiving any shipment details (though the website promises that shipments will be processed between 5-7 days from the order date), I reached out via email to find out the status. I heard back that the company is experiencing a minor delay and I’ll have the items shortly.
In between September 15 and October 3, I emailed customer service three more times and called and left messages regarding my order status as well. I advised that the money had left my checking account a long time ago but that I have no idea when I’ll receive my items or if I will at all. No one called me back, not a soul, they didn’t care that I advised that I’d post bad reviews or contact the Better Business Bureau. Simply put: this company does not care. I received a partial shipment on October 4, 2019 and I also emailed after to find out when I’d receive my sequin bomber. No response of course, so I called the retail store and spoke with Steve, the only saving grace from this whole ordeal. He was kind, empathetic, apologetic, and promised to send my missing jacket out ASAP. Then the idiots at customer service, after Steve already took all the steps necessary to ensure I’d get this long overdue jacket, e-mail me back to tell me: 1) the jacket has been delivered and when I emailed those idiots back to advise that that’s totally false, they then wrote back 2) oh okay well it’s on its way to you. Yeah, you think? I only spent about 3 hours troubleshooting it myself without any help from your company.
There are a lot of beautiful clothing designers that employ competent people but this company is not one of them (but for Steve). Save yourself headache and frustration and don’t spend a single cent here.
