I am rejecting this response because: They received the shoes on 8/6/24 not 8/12/24, I had demanded them to do something on 8/12 or I would place a complaint, they then just left it in a processing status. I need the shoes to be shipped immediately. They have had my money for 20 days and I have nothing.

I am rejecting this response because: They received my return on August 6th per fed ex, they still have not shipped my replacement shoes. I even asked them if they weren't going to ship them that they refund me and they refused that as well as refused to ship them. Please make them ship my items, they have had my money since late July and I have no product.

I ordered shoes at the end of June. I received my initial order when expected, however the pair of shoes I had bought myself ended up being too big. I initiated a return and returned my package via ***** as requested on July 9th. I hadn't heard anything or received any emails regarding this return so I reached out July 27th. I was then told my order had been received July 22nd which it arrived way sooner than that. They then told me it would be another 10 to 14 days to process from the July 22nd. I waited again and still heard nothing so I reached out **** August 12th and was told I haven't given them enough time. I said yes I have I waited the time requested in the previous email and now I just want my money back. I got a blank email and then a copy paste regurgitation of the prior email. This is unacceptable customer service. All I want is my money back, I sent the return back as requested and they are failing to hold up their end of the transaction.Business Response

Ordered shoes from heydude.com on July 26, 2024. Eighteen days later (August 11th), the shoes have not shipped, even though on July 27th they sent an email saying that they had been shipped. They took the money out of my checking account immediately. I chatted with them a week or so ago and was told that they were still within the shipping time?? I want the shoes or a refund without further delay. Thank you.Business Response

I placed an order with Hey Dude for a pair of shoes. I received them and opportunity they did not fit.I never wore them other then trying them on. I returned the shoes and received an email saying they have received the shoes on July 26th 2024 and will process an exchange. It is now Aug 7th and nothing has been shipped. I have called twice looking for an update and told to continue to wait for the 10 day period. I called a 3rd time today Aug 7th, and asked for the order to be canceled and to refund my money. They kept repeating the same exact scripted response from my 2 previous calls and now refuse to refund me. I was polite and professional but once I mentioned I would need to contact the BBB she read me the scripted end of call response then hung up without giving me a change to even say thank you for trying to help. They are uncaring, scripted, and only offer incredibly pour customer service. I really do like there ********************** as I already own a pair but this is simply unacceptable.Business Response

Hello, I bought a pair of hey dudes in store about a month ago while I was on vacation. I do not have the recipt but you can tell they are practically new. I chatted and they intentionally ended the chat on me. The foot pice is coming apart. I am not happy with the customer service provided or the quality of the shoes. I will never purchase another pair of hey dudes unless this matter is rectified. I have bought many pairs in my past and never had this issue.Business Response

Date order June 3, 2024 Shipping plan $3.99 **** Nut shoe size 11 sale price $63.99 ***** sport mesh grey size 11 sale $32.***** sport mesh black size 11 sale $36. Order number ******** All shoes did not fit, I completed a return on line to return **** but for size 12 and return ***** mesh black size 11 for return of funds. I accidentally clicked on return of *************** size 11. So I immediately called customer service rep who had very much broken English to help me with my return. I wanted to not return the ******************* mesh but exchange for size 12. He said I was good to go mailed me return slip. I sent all three shoes back in same box I received them in. It took a very long time to get shoes. I still dont have them, but noticed on emails when I went back to check on my return order that I wasnt receiving ******************* mesh. They told me they didnt receive ******************* size 11. Heydude said they didnt receive them!!!! Even though I attempted to communicate my frustrations they would not believe me and now I am out ***** mesh grey shoes because I returned them and out the money I paid for them. This is very bad business. I will never do business with Heydude again.Business Response

I just purchased a pair of HeyDudes from their website. Within 5 minutes I had realized that I had ordered the wrong size. I called customer service immediately to see if there was anything we could do. They can't even cancel the order within 5 minutes? I'm sorry, I work in customer service and deal with orders and we can cancel orders even hours after they were placed. The only solution I got was to just reorder the size that I needed. It takes less than 5 minutes for them to process an order but it will take over over a month for me to get my money back? I didn't even have the option to return them to a store location for faster service. This company needs to rethink their policy. Never will buy shoes online again!Business Response
