very poor so called customer service or lack of

I am extremely disappointed with the level of customer service provided by The Perfume Shop. I contacted the company over 24 hours ago regarding missing reward points that should have been applied following a recent purchase, yet I have received no response or acknowledgment.

As a returning customer who has made multiple purchases over time, I expect a basic level of communication and support when issues arise. The complete lack of response is both frustrating and unprofessional.

In my opinion, customer service is a clear reflection of a company’s standards and values. Unfortunately, this experience has left me with little confidence in continuing to shop with The Perfume Shop.

With many reputable alternatives available, including Allbeauty, Sephora, and Perfume Price, I will be choosing to take my business elsewhere going forward.

I had a very positive experience with Lina

Yesterday afternoon Lina served me and I have to say she is AMAZING!
Her customer service is absolutely IMPECCABLE!
She is very friendly and very kind!
She is also incredibly patient as she showed me a lot of fragrances.
I had a very positive experience with her!
I will definitely visit your store in Watford again to make other purchases when I need!
