I was getting married 2019. Went as far as choosing a dress and ordering it. No alterations were needed. After it had been ordered, and before it was ever picked up, I broke the engagement. Never got married. I never picked up the dress. My mom had returned the veil and accessories to Davids Bridal a couple of days after we ordered the dress. I was approved to put the dress and accessories an account. I never purchased anything with money or credit since anything take from the store was on the credit account, and taken back. No money due. Over a year later I noticed it was on my credit report in collections as not being paid. The balance is a little over $600. I never received any letter of intent from Davids Bridal of them sending me to collections for an unpaid balance. I would have called them immediately if I had. I never received any type of mail from the collection agency regarding this, either. I have asked multiple times for certified mail - copies of the any mail delivered from Davids Bridal, & letters from the collection agency. I have not received one. They haven't sent me any mail regarding any of my requests. I've tried calling Davids Bridal, the main headquarters; Davids Bridal in Clackamas, and the collection agency. Davids Bridal never responded, and the collection agency doesn't show a phone number when you look them up on their website. I've tried to go through the correct channels to correct this and talk to someone, but no one will contact me back either by email, phone, or certified mail as requested. Disputed through ********, contacting Davids Bridal, and the FTC hadn't done anything about it. Next step is an attorney. I'm NOT paying for something I don't owe. I didn't keep any receipts regarding Davids Bridal, taking or bringing back. Not a reminder I wanted to keep around. Didn't think they would be needed for any reason, either!Customer Answer

Good morning,
The collection agencies name is : **** ****************. I can't find any information for them. The company website I was looking at was for **************** Bank. Since I haven't even received any mail from them that Davids Bridal had sent this money that isn't owed to them, I never received the intents to collect from either company. I can't use the information that might have been on any mail that '**** ****************' might have had. If you find any legitimate information regarding '**** ****************', please add that to any information you might receive from Davids Bridal - if they even respond.
Thank you,

I am rejecting this response because:You wouldn't have sent it to collections if it had been noted on YOUR end that the account was $0. So, yeah. This is still on you.
You still haven't mailed me anything regarding money you thought was owed, or anything from the collection agency stating that I had been sent to collections even.
I have requested these documents time and time again, and have never received one thing.
I hadn't received anything initially and had never know about any of this until I had to look at my credit report to find out why my bank refused me for a credit card. It was quite disturbing to see Davids Bridal had sent me to a collection agency for money I didn't even owe!
I have already found an attorney for just this issue.
I need every bit of documentation you mailed to me trying to touch base with me regarding this concern, as well as copies of documentation showing exactly what was showing unpaid. That means an itemized statement with every product listed with the amount for that product.
Again, I have asked numerous times for all documentation regarding this situation. Why is it that you won't do this?? That alone doesn't make sense.

I purchased 3 dresses. This is my order number: ********** I was notified the white dress size 16W arrived first but it never did. A few days later the red dress arrived and the sewing was defective because the dress doesn’t open on the side but right in the front and it shows my genitals. I am returning the red dress and I am being told I will still be charged a processing fee which shouldn’t be the case in this situation. I told them to cancel my last order of a white dress size 14 because I went overseas and nobody will be home and yet they didn’t cancel. I just want my full refund. I also email them about it and they never got back to me.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
I am still missing a refund for two items. One which was lost in transit which is a white dress 16W and another that never arrived because it was returned to the sender by the carrier which is a white dress size 14. I was told I would get a full refund for those two but I still don’t see it reflected on my account and I haven’t received a confirmation. I’m missing about $435.40 in refunds because so far I only received a refund for the red dress.

I went to David’s Bridal in Brea on 08/12/23 & purchased a dress for a total of $914.96 which I paid in cash. I was told they had my dress size in stock but later told they didn’t & I’d need to get a bigger size & have it altered. Before I purchased, I requested they give me a price on how much it would cost me for alterations. The sales clerk had an alterations person come out & she told me that my dress would cost $400-$500 for alterations. I agreed. I went in for my alterations appointment on 09/09/23 & when they were done pinning my dress up, I was then told that my dress was going to be over $1,400 for alterations. This is more than 3X the amount that I was told I’d have to pay the day I bought my dress. The manager ****** * looked over the charges & informed me they had overcharged on some things. She fixed the errors & told me I now would owe $759.65. This was still more than I expected but I needed my dress altered as it was too big. I paid that amount with my card. I came in on 09/30/23 to pick up my dress from alterations & it didn’t fit right at all. The bust area was falling down, the stomach area was all wrinkled. I dealt with a 2nd alterations person that day that had me wait while she tried to fix it. It was still not fitting right & falling down on me so she said I needed to leave it there to be fixed. I came in again on 10/01/23 & now my dress was so tight it could barely zip. It was completely botched, cut in areas they were never authorized to touch & looked terrible. They then sent a 3rd alterations person to try & help fix it. ******* immediately saw my dress was ruined & said she’d try & fix it but it’s hard to fix someone else mistake. I left my dress again for the 4th alteration but when I came back the next day on 10/03/23 it was deformed & it was completely ruined. I had no choice but to get another dress that’s a little tight & start over. My wedding is in 9 days! I was promised the store manager would call me to refund me & she hasn’t.Business Response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:
I called the David’s Bridal store 4 times trying to reach the store manager ****** & each time, I was told she wasn’t available, she was in a meeting or they would have her call me right back. I even called corporate asking for them to assist with this matter & they contacted the store as well & informed me I’d get a call back right away. The last person I spoke to was a manager named ******* who told me she’s not sure why ****** wasn’t calling me back but that she received all the messages that I called asking for her. I was informed no one but ****** could fix this situation. I finally received a voicemail from ****** 3 days before my wedding which already passed! The whole store team & alterations department was fully aware of my wedding date & that I was leaving out of town for my wedding so why wait to contact me to “supposedly” want to fix this when I’ve already left to my wedding destination? This is completely unacceptable & such terrible customer service! I had to call ****** so many times when I was told she’d be calling me since David’s Bridal ruined my dress & other store employees apologized to me because they saw how messed up my dress was but the store manager couldn’t even have the decency to contact me until 3 days before my wedding! I absolutely do not accept this response. This manager needs proper training on how to treat a bride, you all at David’s Bridal made a happy moment for me completely devastating & should be ashamed at how this was handled!Regards,

Hi I am responding to the latest message from David’s Bridal.
My voicemail is not full, I haven’t received any missed calls from David’s Bridal either in the past month so this is incorrect.
After reading the response I contacted David’s Bridal Brea store & spoke to manager ****** on Friday 11/10. She informed me she needed to gather more information & would call me back. She called me back on Saturday 11/11 & informed me she would be refunding the alterations amount via my debit card & would also be refunding me the cost of my gown via check. I haven’t received either refund yet, but I do know this will take some time to receive. I do not wish to close out my complaint yet, until I actually receive these refunds. With the dishonesty I have received in the past with this store & their employees, I am not confident that I will actually receive the refund. I will send an update with the outcome within the next 3 weeks. As I was told the check would take about 3 weeks to receive via mail. Thank youInitial Complaint

I purchased a dress on 9/11 for $180 for a wedding. The wedding was cancelled and I no longer needed the dress. In less than 30 days after the purchased I attempted to return the dress for a store credit to be used later down the road but was denied. Instead they insisted that I either exchange the dress for $180 of wedding merchandise that I did not need or keep the dress. The exchange must be done within 60 days of the purchase. I don’t need the dress or any other wedding merchandise so essentially David’s Bridal is just taking my money without any consideration for the consumer. The dress was never worn, tags are still on it, and it remains in the original plastic drape. There is no reason they can’t put the dress back on the rack and re-sell it. Additionally, I called corporate. Not only did they not help me they actually took my name and number and promised a rep would get back to me to resolve the issue. It’s been 7 days and I haven’t heard from them nor will they talk to me when I call. At this point I do not want a store credit and instead I’d like a full refund so I can walk away and never do business with this company again. Thank you.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: The company is taking my money without giving me a product that I need or that I can use in return. The company provides a service that I do not need now nor will I need in the future.

The dress is unworn, unaltered, the tags are still on it and it can 100% be returned to the rack for resale.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:There is absolutely no reason why the unworn, unaltered dress cannot be put back on the shelf for resale. As stated multiple times, I do not need the dress now nor will I need it in the future. I do not need any merchandise or service that David's Bridal offers now, nor will I need any merchandise or service from them in the future. The dress is 100% in tact and CAN be resold but this company refuses to do that. Instead, they prefer to take advantage of the customer and stick them with merchandise that is not needed. Additionally, they handle each customer service issue as though they are all exactly the same. I'm not trying to return the dress because I found something better or cheaper elsewhere, I'm not trying to return the dress after it was worn and now i just want my money back, I'm not trying to return the dress because I ruined it, or because somebody told me it makes me look fat. I'm trying to return the dress because the wedding was cancelled. Not postponed, not rescheduled, but cancelled, as in it's never going to happen. David's Bridal return policy is rigid, outdated, and cruel.

Complaint: ********I refuse to accept the response from this retailer.
By refusing to accept a return on a dress that I no longer need, DBS is forcing me to shop in a store thats already taken advantage of me once for useless merchandise that I simply do not need. Why would I, or anybody else for that matter, want to shop in a store with such unprofessional customer service and a return policy that mimics thievery? Why am I being forced to do so?
If the tables were turned I doubt the individual responsible for making the decision to not accept my return would agree with, or want to be forced into spending money on a product they do not need in a store that has already wronged them.
It's important to add that at this point DBS has procrastinated in responding to my multiple requests for a refund so severely that even the 60 day exchange window is now closed.
I've recapped the facts of this unfortunate transaction too many times to count, but I'll recap again. I purchased a dress for a wedding, wedding got cancelled, I asked for a refund ONE DAY past the 7 day mark and was denied, DBS is refusing to take exception to these extenuating circumstances and refund my $180 for an unworn, unaltered dress and instead is forcing an exchange, I do not need any bridal merchandise but I'm still being forced to spend my money in a store that's already taken advantage of me once for merchandise that I do not need.
There is no way DBS can justify any of these facts and make them make sense.

I purchased a dress for my daughter for homecoming that was not in the store. I paid $20 to receive it early, before the dance. I was not given an order number and am unable to check the status, as a result. I tried calling and I am not being given an opportunity to speak with anyone and am forced to text them. The woman collected information and said she would connect me with someone, but will not respond and there is no other way to reach them. All I need is an order number so that I can look this up online to see if I am going to have this dress in time, but I can’t talk to anyone to find out. It is very frustrating because I don’t want to have to find another dress the night before homecoming if this doesn’t arrive. All I want is to check the status of my order and this company has not made it possible to do that. I am nervous about spending over $130 with nothing to show for it. Like I said, I just want someone from this company to contact me and answer my question, nothing more.Business Response

On 8/14/2023 a bridesmaid dress was purchased in the amount of $113.62 by credit card and processed. I received a confirmation email that the order was placed and being shipped. Order number **********. However, the dress never arrived and tracking order information stated it was delayed in San Antonio, Texas. You cannot get ahold of anyone to talk to through their customer service line and it took two weeks for someone to text back. On 9/2/2023 I finally received a text that a replacement will be shipped on Tuesday 9/5/2023. As of 9/12/23 I still do not have a dress and no one will answer the customer service line nor reply back to emails or text. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!Business Response

I purchased for shawls from David's bridal, three were delivered, and one is missing. I attempted to reach out to David Bridal with no luck. They do not have any customer service support. I called but they tell customers to text and disconnect the line. I text and never heard back. I’m afraid I’m going to lose money and I’m also afraid I’m never going to receive my package.Business Response

I am a bridesmaid in a May 2024 wedding. The bride went to a retail store in Wilmington NC in March and picked the bridesmaid dresses. She was told it would be no problem to get extra length for me (6ft). When I went to my retail store in Roanoke Va I was told the stores were likely closing and no extra length dresses could be ordered and the selected dress was not even available in a 6 any longer. After contacting the help line they advised me to order a different style in the same color as the correct dress wouldn’t be coming back in stock. The bride was disappointed to say the least. Well fast forward to September 2023 and the dress I needed is now available with the extra length. I contacted requesting an exchange due to this being caused by their information. They denied my request even though the dress is still new in plastic with all tags. It seems very dishonest to tell a customer the dress needed will not be available and have them spend over 100$ on a different dress, and then deny an exchange when the correct dress does become available. Had I known this was a possibility at all I would not have purchased the incorrect dress. Very poor business practice…Business Response

I purchased a bridesmaid gown in June of 2021. I was notified of the wedding being off in April of 2022. The dress was returned to David’s for store credit. I am not an avid shopper of David’s, but I knew I had my only wedding coming up in 2023. I went to use the store credit in August of 2023 for a hair accessory and was told store credit is no longer accepted in stores or online. I’ve been robbed of what I’m owed. When trying to get through to customer service and corporate offices, the lines are busy and no one returns my calls. The text message option also doesn’t work Overall I’m out funds that I was entitled to. David’s has their dress and still has my money as I am not allowed to use my store credit card. This is thieveryBusiness Response
