    I know Debenhams will only give you an exchange or store credit if an item is 50% off, but what about these things that are 25% off? There are a couple of blouses I like, but I won't know if I want to keep them until I try them on. And I really don't want store credit if I have to return them as I almost never shop at Debenhams (I bought one thing for 7.50 a couple of months ago, returned it and was told I could only have credit because it was half off, and I still haven't found a use for the 7.50 gift card, lol).

    I can answer that and i'm NOT happy> I bought 3 blouses yesterday and 2 jumpers - the blouses were on a one day special offer price of £5 (previous rrp £15) and the jumpers were 25% off - they were too big so took them back today and got smaller sizes where i could but refunds for the others - couldn't have refund back on my card which i paid with had to have giftcard - i hardly ever shop in Debenhams so why couldn't i have the refund on my card that i paid with - everyone's getting conned cos if you have to return something you'll get a giftcard meaning you still have to spend the money in their shop!

    Wow, what a rip off! It says *nothing* about that in the return policy! Is that legal? Thank god my order got cancelled shortly after I placed it. They gave no explanation as to why, but I assume they ran out of stock -- though everything showed in stock when I placed the order (except for the one item it told me to remove if I wanted to place the order). Joke's on them I guess, as now I'm quite glad they cancelled! I really don't like that if you change your mind about something all you can get is store credit for a store that you never normally shop at.
  • just got back from a late night shop and I noticed they were putting up signs saying that it had been extended till Sunday - due to demand

    just to clear up the refund policy for you because i work there.
    the company does not give a refund on anything that is 50% off or higher they will only exchange or put it on a gift card.the only exceptions to this is if you pay on a debs card you can have a refund and if the item is faulty you can have a refund in line with law.
    regards people saying is this legal then yes it is, nobody is entitled to a refund on anything unless it is faulty it is only the goodwill of stores who offer a policy that allows you to have a so called cooling off period when taking something back.
    the refund policy should be displayed at every till point or on the reverse of your recipt.lf it isnt then i would argue the case with the store manager and see how far you get.
    hope that helps.

    My order arrived yesterday (thrown over garden gate by delivery man) and they'd sent the wrong colour. Now I have to go to the store anyway to change it. Also everything was in seperate padded envelopes so with a loadof Christmas decorations and some cards I have been left with 10 huge non recyclable envelopes ands tons of plastic. :mad:

    Now, i'd have been really pleased with all the envelopes and used them for my ebay sales! Hang on to them - you can re-use them for something!
