We visited the Clarks Bedford store…

We visited the Clarks Bedford store today to look for school shoes for my daughter. We were served by Huwaida, she was very knowledgeable and kind. She took her time to help us with the right size school shoes. We would recommend Clarks Bedford to other parents for shoes.

Are obstacles put in customers way when a complaint is raised outside of twelve months?

In my last Clarks Trustpilot review I wrote that a pair of men's tan boots, bought as a gift, had developed a fault in that the soles had started to depart company from the top edge of the uppers after occasional wear over a two year period, which is only going to get worse over time.
I raised the issue with Clarks customer care team (Ref:168302) who contacted me via email afterwards.
Clarks wished to know the following details:
1/The store I purchased from
2/The date and approximate time of your visit
3/The purchase amount
4/The first 6 and last 4 digits of the credit-debit card
These boots were purchased as a gift just over two years ago, so it would be an impossible task to begin to get this information in order to progress my complaint and Clarks in all likelihood know this, so the complaint goes nowhere, expect into the 'closed' draw of the filing cabinet. In short: very disappointing.

Whitehaven Clarks

I went to the Whitehaven shop for work shoes today. The shop assistant Debbie was fantastic! The whole experience was really pleasant and she helped me try on lots of different shoes to get the ones that fit just right. 10/10 would recommend!

First school shoes

We made an appointment at the Fosse Park Clarks store for school shoe fitting. We arrived early but we were assigned a member of staff very quickly. Ace was fantastic. They were really patient with my son who was very shy. His feet were measured and a range of shoes were brought out in his size. There was no pushiness to go for the more expensive shoes and my son preferred the fit of the cheaper ones. We then decided to make the most of an offer and Ace found two pairs of trainers in our son’s size which he loved. Overall a really good experience for buying our son’s first school shoes- thank you!

Great service from Iman at Oldham

I always dread the school shoes shopping trip as my boys hate it and it can be really difficult getting them try shoes on never mind finding ones they say are comfy and they'll wear, but Iman at the Oldham store made it possible. She was really attentive, engaging and patient with them and we came away with 2 pairs each. Thank you!

Naya was quick to spot us in the shop…

Naya was quick to spot us in the shop and to offer her assistance politely. She then asked sensible questions, was friendly, found the sandals we were after, was apologetic that half sizes were not available, helped me try the sandals on and made the sale easy and natural.

Lovely + Helpful

Abi at Yeovil was really lovely and helpful especially with all the advice surrounding first shoes. She was amazing with my 14mth old - he is high energy and curious about new things (shoes/posters in store) but she was so so good with him even when he was redecorating the store 🫣🤭 Abi knew i didn’t want to spend full price for first shoes so found a pair that were suitable and on sale.
