"Impossible is Nothing!" Or so they say...

Breakdown in customer service... The typical "I'm sorry that you're sorry." They should have just said "We don't have your shoe and you're now screwed."

Wrote: To Whom It May Concern: I placed an order for the Honey Mid Fafi White/Black/Sandstorm size 7 (Order # 07835760415), however I received the Adissage W size 8 instead. I called Customer Service to address this and the representative informed me that the original item and size is no longer in stock. The representative then put in a request for a full refund and a return shipping label for the wrong item. At last minute I decided to go up a half size to a 7.5. She informed me that a new order would have to be placed and if I wanted to pay with PayPal (the original source of payment) that I would have to go online and pay through them. I opted to pay via telephone as precaution and to avoid another breakdown in the order/shipping process. This has proved to be a frustrating online shopping experience. Hopefully bringing this matter to your attention will prevent future > breakdowns in the Shopadidas.com process. I look forward to receiving my return label, refund, correct item, and resolution to this fiasco. Thank you.> Renee Hernandez New Order #

Dear Leslie R. I don't believe you read my email concerning the issue with my order. Please take a moment to read it again and at least apologize for the error that your company made. I will most definitely not be shopping on your website again. Your lack of concern and attention to detail is the same as the representative who "helped" me over the phone and the cause of the breakdown with my original order. When can I expect the return shipping label for Order #___? I would like to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
