I order quite a bit of my wardrobe online (plus sized catalog) I had to return a few things and I also exchanged a couple things as well. Here are the details, hopefully you can follow along.
I ordered a swim tee back on July 17, it shipped July 18 and I recieved it approx July 25 (usually takes a week to get to me).
I also ordered a shirt (separate order) that I sent back due to wrong size.
So I get these two items BACK to me in the mail today. I strike up an online chat with a representive to ask why. The notice that came with these returned items were "return old/damaged items back to customer" One of them still had tags on them, the other never came with tags (their shirts never due anyhow) and that shirt was never worn. Anyways, she told me that they have a 60 day return policy and that I was over this deadline.
Here's where my question is.......when does a company start their return policy (whether it be a 30 day, 60 day, 90 day etc) Is it the day of purchase, the day of shipment, the day you receive it? Because if the item mentioned above was ordered on July 17, shipped July 18 and I receive it roughly July 25 and I sent it back in early Sept, I believe I'm within the 60 day return policy, no? I kept asking her to tell me when the return policy starts and she never answered me.
And I'm sure every company is different but I was wondering what your take is on it. Or if you work in customer service, how does your return policy work.
