Ordered a Jacket - got a suitcase - no replacement jacket - refund likely will take 3 weeks
Great brand, very poor customer experience.
I’ve been a loyal North Face customer for years, buying jackets, snowboarding gear and bags. Unfortunately, my experience with The North Face Renewed has seriously tarnished my view of the brand.
Trying to economise, I ordered and paid for a jacket. They sent me a suitcase. The jacket was then unavailable, so they couldn’t replace it.
Mistakes happen — it’s how you put them right that matters.
Instead of simply refunding me, I had to return the suitcase (no problem returning it) I never ordered and wait for their warehouse to receive and process it before they would initiate my refund. Customer service simply repeated “policy” rather than taking ownership of a mistake entirely of their making.
So: no jacket, no immediate refund, and all the inconvenience sits with the customer.
A textbook example of how a simple mistake can become a very poor customer experience.
I won’t use The North Face Renewed again and, based on this experience, couldn’t recommend it.
