      I placed two seperate orders for school uniforms from this website. I received a partial order from the first and none from the second. We were told if we ordered by July 22nd we would have them for school. None of my items were back ordered when I placed the order. I call every day but it just says reached during non business hours even though you call during business hours. Ive sent multiple emails with no reply. This company seems as though they are stealing from their customers.

      Thank you for reaching out about your delayed order and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. We know how important it is to have uniforms ready for the start of the school year, and we appreciate your patience as we work diligently to fulfill your order.

      Our distribution center is currently requiring a slightly longer than usual processing time for orders due to a high volume of back-to-school shopping and while we cannot provide a specific delivery date at this time, rest assured that your order is a priority and our entire team is working tirelessly to get it to you as soon as possible.

      In regards to your first order, placed on July 9th for 23 items, the two Royal blue polos are in production and will ship soon. The White polo is awaiting additional stock from our manufacturer and once received will have the school logo applied and will ship to you. We show all other items have been delivered, if you are missing anything else from this order please let us know so we can investigate further.

      The second order, placed July 22nd for 5 items is partially shipped. One of the three White ******** fit polos recently shipped on August 6th, the other two are in production to have the logo added and will ship soon. The ***** Pan collared Blouse was a pre-order item as indicated at the time of purchase and was estimated to take 4-5 weeks before it would be available. The blouse is on track to be shipped within the estimated pre-order period provided. 

      We appreciate your understanding and support.

      Ordered uniforms for my daughter 6/3/24 (see screenshot for confirmation). The style jumper I ordered came with a 6-7 week preorder wait which I was happy to wait. That 7 week timeframe ended 7/22/24. I called to speak with customer service for an update and was told the product was still on back order when I expressed that my daughter starts school in 2 weeks, all I was told was I had to wait for them to come in. I asked to be transferred to a supervisor to which I was told we dont transfer calls but I can put you on a list to be called back by a supervisor. This was 7/23/24. I called again today (8/2) because my daughter starts school 8/14 and we have yet to receive the uniforms. I was told I was on a list already to speak to a supervisor when I asked to speak to one, so when is a manager going to contact me? Its been over a week. I asked if there would be any refunds for the parents who are not going to have uniforms in time for school, they said absolutely not. I would also like to note that the style jumper I ordered for my daughter is no longer on the website. I ordered a scoop neck knife pleat jumper and the only one on the site now is the bib front knife pleat.

      The Jumpers, as you noted, are a pre-ordered item and had an estimated 6-7 week lead time. Unfortunately, there was a delay in production and this item is further delayed. Our production team is working to get these jumpers finished so we can fulfill any outstanding order quickly and while we cannot provide a specific delivery date at this time, rest assured that your order is a priority and our entire team is working tirelessly to get it to you as soon as possible.

      I am rejecting this response because: there is still no resolution. Saying oops its taking longer without notifying anyone waiting for these uniforms is unacceptable and unprofessional. This happened last year, as well, making this the second year in a row my daughter did not have uniforms ordered 2.5 months in advance of school starting. Again, the only reason I know theres a shipping issue or supply issue is because I contacted you multiple times. I have requested a callback from a supervisor on multiple occasions to be told Im on a list to be called back and that employees cant transfer calls to their supervisors. I still havent received a phone call or a resolution to this issue. 

      please see attached for my email response.

      Sincerely,

      Previously posted complaint was removed as I was unable to respond to cardiac issues and a motor vehicle accident. I ordered uniforms 6/3/2024. It is now 9/23/2024 and I received ANOTHER email saying that they don't know when my daughter's uniforms will be delivered. This is after months of NO CONTACT or UPDATE. I contacted them before school started because we had not yet received the uniforms we spent several hundreds of dollars on and I wanted an update. I was told there was an issue with the manufacturer and it was UNKNOWN when they would be able to get the uniforms to us. When I asked what they were willing to do to compensate their customers, I was initially told they weren't going to do anything to compensate the customers for this issue. After I was told that, I filed my initial BBB report. That was when someone responded and told me they would refund my shipping. Refunding shipping for an item we have not received almost 4 months later, with no anticipated delivery date? No. I don't think so. They haven't even offered to substitute our items with similar items, which their order confirmation **** says they will do if our items are unavailable (please see attached for order confirmation dated 6/3/2024, and for another order delayed communication dated 9/23/2024).

      Desired Resolution: Delivery; Refund; I want the uniforms I ordered and a full refund for the HORRENDOUS customer service and having to buy *********************** from other people that would fit her.

      Hello, 

      We understand your frustration and disappointment with the delays in receiving your daughter's uniform order. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

      Regarding the delayed jumpers, we confirm that they were delivered on September 30th. If you have not received it, please let us know immediately so we can investigate further. In regards to our substitution policy, we were unable to provide substitutions for this product as there were none available that met the Uniform Dress code for your school. 

      While we understand your desire for a full refund of the delivered product, we are unable to accommodate this request. 

      To address your concerns, we will:

      Review our communication and fulfillment processes to identify areas for improvement and ensure better customer experiences in the future.
      Offer a $25 Gift card as a token of our apology for the inconvenience caused. This gift card will arrive via email, it has no expiration date and can be used online or in-store.

      We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve these matters.

      On May 18, 2024, I made several orders at the Dennis location off of ********** in ******. When we made the purchases, we were not made aware of how many products were on back order until AFTER our transactions were complete. We were then told it would ***********-8 weeks for items to be delivered. Online, it said 2-3 weeks. I am still waiting on 2 Drop Yoke Kick Pleat Skorts and 3 light blue Short Sleeve Tech Mesh Polos to arrive before my daughter starts school in 2 weeks!! I have called Dennis 4 times and visited the store once to check on the status for the remaining items in this order of this order. I receive the same answer every time they are on back order and more recently great news! They are on in stock now, but I cant tell you when theyll be shipped.. When I visited the store recently, an employee said she could order a shirt for me that I was looking at if I didnt see the size I need. I responded but I wouldnt get the order for 10+ weeks and she laughed and said yea you are right which makes it seem like this is a recurring issue with this company.The total for these 5 items Im still waiting on is $183.25. Last week, I was told the order would be in the mail by the end of the day and when I called this morning it STILL had not shipped. There is no transparency as to the status of the items in back order. This is one of TWO brands I can order uniforms and the collection of payment before being assured if they can fulfill the order in 2-3 weeks as stated on the order status is predatory (we are approaching 11 weeks from my date of purchase)! **************** says they have no ability to escalate calls and Ill just have to wait for them to get there.I need the remaining items delivered to my order delivered to my home in the soonest shipping method that Dennis can send it, as this order has been grossly ignored. We should not have to wait an entire summer for uniforms to be delivered when we purchased them in May.

      I placed a large order and it was partially fulfilled. However the 3 remaining items are not here, leaving one of my children without shirts for school. I ordered very early so this would not be a problem and they were in stock when placing the order. I can not get anyone to give me any kind of estimated date the missing items may arrive. I have reached out 3 times and all emails are simply ignored.

      I have visited the Dennis Uniform store located at *****, **, on May 20, 2024 to purchase new uniforms for my daughter for the 2024-2025 school year. The store had minimal inventory and the only option was to place an online order to obtain the items that were not available. The store representative placed the order at the store, order #***********, in the amount of $187.95 and I was told tbst I would receive my order at home in 4-6 weeks. So far, on my online account on the ******************** website, the order shows as unfulfilled. On July 16, I went to the Doral store one more time to puchase additional items. I have asked a representative to give me an update regarding my order and I was informed that there was a glitch in their system and that he was going to email their diatribution center and called me with an update. I provided them with my phone number and so far I have not heard from them. On that same day, a new online order was placed at the store because again, their inventory was minimal leaving me with no other option, order #***********, amount of $108.87. So far, this second order has been partially fulfilled and one item is still to be fulfilled. I have emailed their customer care center on July 24 and have received an automated confirmation stating that This is an auto-reply email confirming that your request (******) has been received and is being reviewed by our ************* team.I have contacted ******************** through their Instagram profile and their answer was that they are receiving a lot of out reach this week amand that they hope to contact me soon. My first order still shows as unfulfilled and my daughter will start school soon. This is a recurring problem with Dennis Uniform. The lack of inventory at store forced us parents to order online and the company is unable to fulfill orders.

      Business Response

      We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the delays in fulfilling your orders, numbers *********** and ***********. We understand the importance of timely delivery, especially during the back-to-school season, and we regret that we have fallen short of your expectations.

      We have been experiencing an unusually high volume of orders this summer, which has unfortunately led to processing delays. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work diligently to address this issue.

      In response to your concerns, we have investigated the status of your orders and are pleased to inform you that all remaining items from both orders have now shipped and are expected to arrive via **** on Thursday, August 8th.

      The unforeseen delays were caused by manufacturing issues that impacted our inventory levels. As soon as the necessary stock arrived, we expedited the shipping process.

      We understand that this explanation does not alleviate the frustration you have experienced, and we again apologize for any inconvenience caused. We value your business and hope that you have a more positive experience with us in the future.

      Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

      Placed an order on June 2nd. I have emailed multiple times to inquire about my order. No response. I called and was on hold for ****************************************** process which it has been for weeks. I was told to email if I have any issues and want to open a ticket. Unfortunately, no one responds to this email. Asked to speak to a supervisor and was told that they had no supervisor or manager available to take a call.

      I did finally receive a shipment yesterday for 3 of the 4 items I am missing.  I am still owed 1 more shirt and a refund for that shirt was not issued nor any communication on when I should receive it.   Supposed to receive in 2-3 weeks and it has been almost 7.  Also, it should be addressed that while on the phone with customer service, they should have been able to tell me about that shipment.  Instead he was just condescending and telling me "sorry".  Why wasn't I told about the shipment or tracking #???

      I placed a uniform order on July 24 2023. It was a large order with 20 items. When the initial package was received the packing slip had 8 items listed as being backordered. By August 9th I never received the items and called Dennis a few times to receive the run around or there was nothing they could do and to contact the **** for tracking information. It has now been almost a year with no items received. I contacted my **** and I had to pay to retrieve tracking information since it was an older tracking number and they gave me all of the delivery information. I spoke with another representative on 7/8/24 and was willing to provide all documents I had including the tracking information, packing slips and emails from previous conversations and they didnt ask for anything. Im now out of over $200 and will be looking into filing a claim in small claims court. This is fraud

      Dear BBB,

      We are writing in response to the complaint filed by ********************* regarding an order placed in July 2023.

      We understand the customers frustration regarding the non-receipt of their order. We take customer satisfaction very seriously and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter.

      Our records indicate that the order was shipped in multiple packages between August and September 2023. We provided the customer with tracking information for each shipment via email, followed by delivery confirmation emails upon completion.

      Unfortunately, the customer did not contact us until February 2024 to report the issue. Our company policy outlines a 90-day timeframe for reporting missing packages to initiate an investigation. Due to the significant time lapse since the confirmed deliveries, we are unable to provide a refund.

      We understand that this may not be the outcome the customer desired, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We are committed to resolving customer issues promptly and effectively, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation.

      Best Regards,

      On 3/3/24 I placed order ***********. I received everything in my order except 1 pair of shorts. My account has a note that states it will be shipped in 1-2 weeks however there hasn't been movement since the day I placed the order. I was charged for this item. I've emailed Dennis multiple times and am always told that my item is in the queue to ship and should within the next week. I called last week and was told that there is some type of shipment error, they would reach out to receiving, and get back to me. I've not heard back. I called again today, 4/17/24. I was told that there is a glitch in their system preventing them from shipping the shorts, even though they are in stock in the warehouse. They do not know when the glitch will be resolved and cannot give me an ETA. To make matters worse, I placed another order *********** for a color block polo, which I was also charged for, and was told today that this item is also subject to the same glitch. I've been charged and they can't tell me when/if I will get my items because a computer glitch is preventing them from shipping an in stock item. They told me they can put in a request for a manager to call me but were unable to transfer me to a manager.

      Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      Upon investigating the issue, we discovered that there was a system communication error between our inventory and shipping programs, which resulted in a delay in the shipment of your shorts. We understand how frustrating this must have been, and we truly regret any inconvenience it caused.

      Before we could rectify the complex coding issue and expedite the shipment, the customer called our customer care center to cancel the item. As per the request, we promptly canceled the delayed shorts and provided a full refund. Additionally, to compensate for the inconvenience faced, we refunded the shipping fees for the delayed order and provided a gift card for a future purchase. 

      We sincerely apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this situation may have caused. Our team is committed to providing exceptional service to our customers, and we are continuously working to improve our processes to prevent such issues from occurring in the future.

      7/8/2023 Fleece Jacket Youth Large ***** Originally visited a physical store for the item which was out of stock, the store worker placed the item on order through its website. Initially told item was on back order to expect 6-8 weeks. Item came in late October in the wrong size Youth small. When I called I explained that weve already waited so long and how long would it now take the customer service rep said, that the item was in stock and should only take a few weeks. In late November I called back to get a status where I was told item would come late December to mid January. I asked to speak with a supervisor/manager was told none was available and that I would be put on a list to be called back and that it would only be a couple of days for the call. I was never called back; I called back 1/19/24 to get another update and have been told that it will still be another 2-3 weeks. I asked why I was never called back and was told that I was never actually put on a list to be called back. When I asked to speak with a supervisor/manager again I was told that they were in a meeting and that I would be put on a list to be called back once again. I dont have the original order number this only goes back to the reorder. Order ***********. They have not offered any solution to help expedite my order, even after I explained that my childs school only allows students to wear uniforms with the school's logo and that at this point my student has to attend school and remove the jacket when entering the school even while were facing freezing temperatures the last few weeks. This seemed to go totally ignored as it was when I previously called. I require the jacket and it is the only business that works with the ****** Catholic School District for uniforms.

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It is always our goal as a company to ship items as quickly as possible. However, sometimes there are unforeseen delays and in this instance there was a series of mistakes that occurred and our team worked to correct them as soon as they were brought to our attention.
      Originally the customers order was input incorrectly by the store staff and when ****************** informed our customer care team of this mistake a replacement order was created for the correct size and a pre-paid return label emailed to send the incorrect item back. The replacement order was further delayed by the manufacturer. Currently the jacket has left production and is being shipped to ******************.
      A request to speak to a manager was made on October 23rd and a supervisor followed up via email on October 27th to the email associated with the order. A $15.00 refund was processed on the original order due to the delay in shipment. An additional request to speak to a manager was made on Jan. 19th and a return call was made Jan. 22nd to discuss Mr. ******** concerns and assure him that the jacket was in the fulfillment process and would be shipping this week.
      Thank you

      I am rejecting this response because:

      While a customer service representative did contact me about my item being shipped there is still no tracking number and we have yet to receive our item. I also dont accept their explanation that when I asked to speak to a supervisor that an email from a supervisor was sufficient because I specifically asked to receive a call back even when I called back in January the customer service representative said that the last representative did not **** that I wanted to receive a call back from a supervisor.

      Dennis Uniforms sent the item that I ordered but it came with the wrong schools logo and took much longer than they said it would. I called once again to speak with a customer service manager who informed me that they no longer carry the item in stock because the school is updating its catalog for the next school year. They offered to replace the item with a cardigan sweater and refund me the original cost of my first item ordered. This was on 2/9/24 and neither of these things have occurred it has been nearly two weeks. They said the replacement item was in stock. After waiting 7 months for one item to correctly ship this was apparently the best they could do to resolve this issue. I think any school district that uses or directs parents to use them for school uniforms should stop immediately and go with another supplier.

      One of our ************* Supervisors spoke with the customer on Feb. 6th in regards to receiving the incorrect logo on the jacket. At that time the Supervisor submitted a request to our warehouse for a full inventory check to determine how and why the customer received the incorrect item. 
      During that investigation the Account representative informed the Supervisor that this particular school has chosen to make changes to their uniform requirements and the jacket in question would no longer be produced. As there was no remaining stock of the jacket we were unable to provide another replacement per our contractual agreements with the school.

      The supervisor handling the issue called the customer back on Feb 9th to relay this unique situation, and the customer was offered a refund for the jacket in light of the item no longer being produced. The customer expressed concern that his student did not have appropriate outerwear for the colder weather and the supervisor offered an alternative in the form of providing a replacement of an in stock item instead of the refund.  The customer agreed to this resolution and a replacement order was created at that time for the Cardigan. This item entered our shipping queue process on February 13th and was shipped under tracking number ********************** which shows delivered to the customer as of February 22nd. 

      We apologize for any miscommunication and misunderstanding that occurred during the phone calls. To date the customer has received a 30% refund to the original purchase due to the delay and the agreed upon replacement cardigan.

      Thank you

      Complaint: 21171797

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The response is a blatant lie nobody from the customer service department went out of their way to contact us first about why we received the wrong item. I had to call when we received the wrong item which came weeks longer then what they estimated it would take. The initial call placed to customer service was requiring us to send the wrong jacket back first in order to process the exchange for the wrong jacket at no point did receive an explanation of why we received the wrong jacket. When I asked to speak a customer service manager I was again told it could take up to 3 days to get a phone call back. When I finally received a phone call the customer service manager then explained that the order could not be fulfilled because the school no longer is carrying it on their catalog. But when I placed the order 7 months previously it was on the catalog but because of their incompetence I was never able to get the item I paid for. The customer service manager said I would receive a full refund to which I explained that would not help the situation that my child is required to wear all clothing with the schools logo or on the approved list of clothing such as shoes and skirts. It is only then did he offer to send a cardigan to which I asked on how much I would be charged to which he said it would be free of charge for the terrible handling of my situation. So I clarified I would not need to pay for the cardigan and I would receive the full refund which he replied yes. This company has gone through great lengths to not accept any type of responsibility for failing to fulfill 1 item in 7 months. If wasnt for the fact that I have to go through this company for school uniforms I most definitely wouldnt. I intend on speaking with the ****** of the ****** Dioceses about reconsidering and reevaluating using this company to supply uniforms to the ****** *************** District. 

      Sincerely,

      Thank you for your response. Again we apologize for the miscommunication that occurred on your call with the Supervisor on February 9th. The call history was reviewed prior to the previous response and as stated an offer of refund or replacement with an alternative product was offered. As a good will gesture we will process the refund for the jacket as we did send the item with the wrong school logo.

      Thank you

      I purchased & paid for uniform items online per my sons school on 8/14/23.I ordered a total of 7 items. To this day 1/9/24, I have still yet to receive any of the items I purchased AND already paid for. I called and spoke with customer service today (1/9/24) and was told she could refund me only 4 of the items that had not shipped.i was told the other 3 items could not be canceled or refunded because they are showing shipped in their system and was told to wait until they are at my doorstep to return. It has been 5 MONTHS with no purchased items at my doorstep and no one willing to return my $218 that has been held hostage for 5 months. Worst option for uniforms ever.

      Attn: BBB

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have reviewed the customer account information based on the email and phone number provided in the complaint. Our records indicate that the order placed on 8/14 was partially shipped to the address on record on August 19th via *** tracking number 1Z4A4E46YW22971542, this tracking indicates delivery occurred on 10/03. There remains 4 navy polos unshipped which I will be happy to cancel and refund per the customer's request. As the customer is reporting non-delivery I will open a missing package claim with ***. Claims are typically resolved within 3-5 business days. At which time if *** is unable to supply sufficient proof of delivery a refund will be processed to the customers original form of payment for that missing shipment. 

      Thank you for allowing us to address this issue
