Having
purchased
an
engagement
ring
for
my
partner
online
at
H.
Samuel,
we
needed
to
go
into
a
store,
as
the
ring
was
not
of
good
fit.
Having
spoken
to
Customer
Service
via
live
chat
(who
were
rather
average
at
best),
they
had
at
least
confirmed
that
alterations
within
30
days
were
without
charge.
So
I
booked
an
appointment
online
to
visit
H.
Samuel
Birmingham
Bull
Ring
today
Sun
21
May.
Claire
S
and
the
Duty
Manager
were
extremely
helpful
and
really
seemed
to
know
what
they
were
doing,
as
well
as
be
interested
in
our
story.
Without
any
fuss
or
argument,
they
agreed
to
exchange
the
ring
for
the
same
but
the
correct
size
(rather
than
adjust
the
size
of
the
existing
ring)
-
despite
the
fact
my
fiancée
had
been
wearing
the
ring.
Having
worked
together
to
size
her
finger
correctly,
Claire
S
and
the
manager
ordered
the
correct
ring,
took
the
old
ring
from
us,
and
we
agreed
the
new
ring
would
likely
be
ready
on
Tuesday,
and
I
would
take
the
certificate
and
packaging
for
the
old
ring
when
I
came
to
collect.
Many
companies
don't
want
to
get
involved
with
online
ordered
if
you
go
into
store,
but
my
experience
here
was
thankfully
very
different
-
they
seemed
more
than
happy
to
take
responsibility
and
assist
with
online
orders,
and
although
the
store
may
not
have
made
any
extra
commission
from
me
this
time,
I
don't
forget
the
people
in
life
that
wronged
me,
but
I
sure
as
hell
also
remember
those
that
helped
me
out.
Thus,
I
will
be
sure
to
return
to
them
for
the
wedding
ring,
and
future
jewellery
purchases.
They
were
quite
keen
on
me
purchasing
their
insurance,
but
I
certainly
wouldn't
say
there
was
any
pressure.
Sadly,
their
insurance
excludes
loss
and
this
is
important
for
us,
and
I
feel
they
did
respect
my
decision.
Although
customer
service
could
have
been
more
helpful
and
interested,
I
have
rated
based
on
this
particular
store,
as
it
would
be
unfair
to
deduct
stars
based
upon
Head
Office.
In
any
case,
HQ
still
gave
me
the
information
I
needed,
and
the
store
honoured
what
had
been
agreed
(and
more)
without
any
drama.
So
often
you
have
to
fight
companies
to
honour
their
own
procedures,
which
in
this
case
could
really
have
soured
the
magic
of
getting
engaged,
so
I
recognise
and
appreciate
how
stress
free
the
interaction
was.
Thank
you
H.
Samuel
