Discount

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Received an email from Taos Footwear offering a 50 dollar discount off Flash Sandals. The discount mechanism failed to apply on the purchase site.

I emailed Taos Footwear several times explaining the failure mode.

Twice, Taos replied that a customer service rep would contact me. No customer service rep ever replied.

Pros:
  • Excellent product

Bad return policy

AI Highlights
  • - Terrible return policy; no option to return expensive shoes.
  • - Straps didn't stay up and I couldn't exchange for a pricier model.

I should never and will never buy shoes online from a place that has a terrible return policy. If they believe in the quality, how come you cannot return?

We should all expect more, especially since these shoes are so expensive.

I had to waste my time explaining that the shoe straps did not stay up on my heel, and they would not even let me return for a more expensive model shoe. Save your money or find a store where you can try on before you buy.

Loss:
$109
Pros:
  • Some shoes fit well and extremely supportive
Cons:
  • Buying on-line for shoes is hard return policy should be better

Preferred solution: Exchange for another model even one that cost more money.

User's recommendation: Find a store to try on shoes. You will save yourself a lot of time and your hard earned money!

Deceptive returns policy

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - They say there is a free returns & package protection fee.
  • - They view this as deceptive and criticize customer service.
  • - They won't recommend them.

They say free returns but charge you a "free returns & package protection fee". Too bad they just can't be honest and say there is a fee for returns.

Tis deception speaks to their customer service view. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THEM.

Need to return item

AI Highlights
  • - I had trouble finding return instructions but found them online.
  • - The shoes aren't the color I expected and are too small; I will be returning them.

I was having difficulty finding your instructions for returning an item. But i did find it then on your website.

So that's all good. The shoes are not the color I had anticipated and are also a size too small. So I will be returning them. Per the instructions I found, it would seem I should not return them in the original box...???

Is that correct??? Regards, Rhoda

I own 4 different sneakers and I love them. My blue slip ons are coming apart in the toe section inside of the sneaker.

I paid a lot for these and I'm disappointed this has happened. What can you do to help me with this?

I've had them for a while, but I only wear them inside and not everyday. Please advise.

Locating a friend who works there for a Reunion

AI Highlights
  • - Seeking Mike Walker, 57, Santa Barbara, who works for your company.

Resolved: A duplicate shipment to return #116****

AI Highlights
  • - Duplicate shipment under the same order number; two packages were returned with identical labels.
  • - Only one package credited; requesting credit for the other.
Updated by user Mar 08, 2024

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology.

Original review Feb 22, 2024

I received a duplicate shipment under the sane order number. I asked for return labels.

The post office said that both labels were identical. They returned both packages (one label on each box).

I only received credit for one package. I need to receive credit for the other package.

Loss:
$165

Preferred solution: Full refund

THEY WON'T LET ME RETURN SHOES THAT I DIDN'T ORDER

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - They sent the wrong shoes in style, color, and size.
  • - Return code is for order, not the wrong shoes.
  • - Customer service is hard to reach; voicemail.

They sent me the wrong shoes. WRONG in every way possible.

Wrong style, wrong color, and wrong size. Used a robot to "fix my 'happy' return". Won't refund me my money or ship correct shoes until I return other ones. But I don't have time.

Finally make it to a UPS store and the return code they sent me is for the shoes I ordered, not the ones they sent, so I can't return! Meanwhile you can't reach a person. They will have you leave a message due to "high call volume" (yeah, everybody hates them so no wonder).

Don't order for them. Keep on going.

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Avoid like the plague. Tell your friends

Returned items gives vouchers for 90.00 per shoes returned plus points equaling 50 dollars. Tried to reorder but the numbers on vouchers don’t work. I want shoes that fit to replace returns

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Unable to use return voucher; voucher numbers fail on reorders.
  • - Seeks a human to replace with shoes that fit and issue vouchers plus 50 points.

Unable to use return voucher to return. Trying for days to speak with a live person as messages don't work voucher numbers dont work on reorders.

Your customer service should be open according to message given I WANT SHOes THAT FIT TO REPLACE MY returned ITEMs I received the vouchers plus the 50 points at least. I need to speak with a human being who can help rectify or after I get this resolved ii have to call until I die then have a relative take over I want my shoes that fit. I will never buy anything from you again if this is what rectifying a return is like.

Nonsense. Give me my shoes

User's recommendation: Do buy anything. I bought many but returns are impossible

Trying to exchange for new after return made vouchers don’t work and customer service live person non existence even though they say they are available

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Unable to use return vouchers and cannot reach a live person after days.
  • - I want cash refunds for vouchers and points and wearable merchandise.

Unable to use return voucher to return. Trying for days to speak with a live person as vouchers worth cash worth the multiple returns for size and comfort were received.

Customer service people not computers are on existence even when you call during hours. I want the merchandise I paid for to fit and be wearable and useful. This is reasonable notion.

Send me the cash for the vouchers and points and I will go elsewhere. I would rather what I want from Taos but I will take my money and move on

User's recommendation: Be cautious

I am rating customer service, not Taos footwear.

  • - No one has returned my calls.

I have contacted Taos footwear customer service by e-mail and by phone, leaving a message each time. No one has ever returned my call.

A company is only as good as its service to customers. I have lost faith.
