      Converse order number ********* Ordered a pair of Converse shoes 8/8/22 6:30 AM through their website.After order was finished I realized shoes would be delivered to wrong address. There wasn't a way to change address on the order through website, so I called customer service ************* at 7:15 AM.The customer service agent told me once the order was made it wouldn't be possible to change the address, and I'd have to contact *** upon delivery to have address changed. So I asked to cancel the order instead. She told me this wasn't possible either do to the order already being processed, even though it had only been about 45 minutes since I made the order. I was told I'd have to wait for delivery, then return the item for a refund. I was not able to contact *** before delivery, as I did not have a tracking number until day of delivery.Package has now delivered to wrong address 8/13/22, and I won't be able to retrieve my package. would simply like to request on full refund of $77.18

      Purchased 3 pair of sneakers with Converse via Afterpay app on 07/22/2022 totaling $174.88. With Afterpay you make the first initial payment then over the course of 6 weeks you are to make 3 payments to pay off balance. The payments are due every 2 weeks. I received an email on 7/23/2022 that my order was shipped, and I received my delivery on 7/26/2022. The box only contained one pair of sneakers and I ordered 3. I called their customer service **** and was told that 1 pair of sneakers was cancelled off the order due to not having it in stock, but the other two sneakers were shipped together. Eventually I was able to get a refund of ***** for the pair that was shipped that I never received but I have not as of today received an adjustment on amount due for the sneaker that was cancelled off my order. I am still being demanded to pay more money towards this order and they have since added a **** late payment fee on the total due. Afterpay is stating they never received an adjusted bill from Converse, so it shows I still owe a remaining balance of ***** minus the 1st payment of ***** that was made when order was created. I have email from Converse stating they sent an adjustment of ***** to afterpay but afterpay is stating they never received it. I was told by Converse that they will not contact afterpay to assist me, but they gave me an email to show to afterpay stating the adjustment was due to me but afterpay is stating they need it to come from converse. I am being pushed back and forth between the two companies and I am expected to keep giving them money which is unfair to me. I need help please. I have attached a few of my emails I have with afterpay and converse. Overall, what I need is converse to contact afterpay and inform them of my refund of ***** so my bill will reflect paid in full and this can stop effecting my credit. Thank you!

      My husband purchased a pair of converse shoes size 7.5 for me on 12/17/21 (receipt attached below) During that time we were in the process of moving and I never tried them on until recently. Unfortunately they're to big for me, I'm assuming because they're "unisex". I contacted Converse Customer Support on 8/3/21 to see if I could exchange them for a smaller size. The customer service representative told me no, because it is past the 30-day policy. I asked to speak with the supervisor. ****** the supervisor told me he couldn't help me again since it's past the 30 day policy. He offered me a 20% coupon which I denied. I tried explaining to him that Converse return policy states even if it's been after 30 days you are eligible for a full refund as long as the product has been unworn and unwashed. My product has been unworn it on washed. He said his supervisor would contact me back and he gave me a case number. Case #: *******. I have not heard back from a supervisor by phone. I've tried contacting corporate/ headquarters to resolve this issue. No response from them. I did receive an email from Converse of ** stating the same thing as the customer service rep over the phone. Since it's been over 30 days there's nothing we can do. They will only accept a return a few days or even a month over 30 days. I'm not trying to do a return just an exchange for a smaller size.This company is not honoring their return/exchange policy that is clearly stated on their website.Thank you,************************* ************

      Hello *******,

       

       

      I can understand your frustration in the matter. You want a pair that fix your size. Our sizing is a bit different than other shoes and our Unisex sizing are default mens sizing. As for the order it's over a year old and we cannot accept that as an exchange. I'm sorry but if there is anything else I can help you with please let me know. 

       

       

      Thanks,

      Converse would not note right their advertising , I proceeded to file with federal trade commission [ consumer protection ] who had passed laws a long time ago to prevent this type of advertising .
