I had a very bad experience at my local Victoria's Secret in the mall on Tuesday, December 28th.
Victoria's Secret is having their semi-annual sale, so I should have known that the store would be jam-packed. I really needed some new push up bra's, and have looked forward to purchasing some since Summer. I took about 10 to try on, went into the dressing room and was the only person there. I waited patiently for the clerk with the keys to come and get me a room. She then was rude enough to let two other girls that just came out of no where get my room. When I asked her if any were avaliable, she snapped at me and told me to wait my turn. I waited for a ridiculous 17 minutes exactly until there was a room avaliable. When she saw the room was avaliable, she decided to ignore me and left the room. The woman who had the room was courteous enough to let me have my room, and stated to me that I was treated very poorly. When I left the room, the clerk then asked me how I got into one. I explained there was an open room avaliable a woman let me have. After this, I waited a total half hour in the line alone! There were only 3 registers working, 2 of them with women struggling on how to properly return merchandise. So, instead of waiting in line I gave my mother my bra and had her keep my place. I went over to the Panty clearance and started looking the selection over, and I grabbed a few pairs. I noticed on the tags that none of them were marked down to their clearance price, but I decided to take a shot at purchasing them anyway.
Upon entering the register, the new clerk apologized for the half-hour inconvenience. She then scanned my panties and they did not show up on clearance. I explained politely to her they were in the clearance bin. Upon hearing this, she did NOT believe me. She was trying to make it out to the manager in front of me and my Mother that I was trying to get a steal on panties. I then went to the clearance bin and showed her the pairs from the bin that were exact replicas of the panties I had intended to purchase. The manager then told her to go ahead and give me all of my panties, even the ones that were not on clearance for $3.99. When I was done paying for the items, I looked at my clerk and told her to have a nice day. She then glared and me and told me her day would be better when the sales were over, because it would ward off all of the "cheapo rip-off customers" who buy clearance bras.
Never in my 35 years of living have I been so upset at the unprofessional-ism that Victoria's Secret holds.
If this is going to be a PROfessional company, they need to start acting like one.
I also purchased some items from Victoria's Secret offline. I was very upset at the quality the bra's came in. My bra's came in a little package, and were smashed upon arrival. The customer Service Representative was a very rude Salesperson, and if I would have to rate the women that are working for Victoria's Secret... I would give most of them a 0 out of 10! SHAME on them for the attitude they have, it's bad enough they have to sell good bra's at such a ridiculous price, let alone treat their loyal customers like complete garbage!
