“I Mostly Loved it -- Very difficult to Cancel”

Amber B.
1/5/21

I really enjoyed the service. If you are good about returning the items quickly, you have an ever changing wardrobe. I also enjoyed buying the items I loved at deep discounts. I have paid less than $10 for some of my favorite items, which, yes they are used, but this rivals any thrift store. My only gripe is that it is really difficult to cancel. You can't do so online and have to talk to a rep on the phone, who of course tries to persuade you to stay. At this time, I can't afford the service and cancelling it was a real pain.

I signed up several years ago on a lark. I have really grown to love this service. I really don't shop for clothes anymore. I use GB to try new things and if I can't live without the piece I buy it and if I can, I just send it right back and get something else. It has opened up a huge wardrobe for me. There have been very few hiccups over the years. But the couple issues I did have were handled quickly and efficiently.

Yep I'm a stay at home mom. I love GB because it gets me out of my every day active wear. I do the 2 items at a time. It's perfect for me because it changes up my date night clothes and I wear something different every single week to church. AMAZING! Also, I had weight loss surgery 6 months ago and it was nice not needing to buy new clothes that I would only wear for a short amount of time. I could quickly go in my gb closet and change the sizes of my items.

Before learning about Gwynnie Bee my shopping experience was AWFUL. Running from store to store took too much time and I was limited to only the brands each store offered. Since joining, I've discovered new brands that I love and I shop when I want and from the comfort of my sofa with coffee in hand. Returning items that do not fit is easy. The only thing that I don't like is when items in my size are not currently in rotation and I have to wait.

... and they are getting worse! Very few items to choose from since the pandemic started. Turn around times becoming increasingly slower & slower. I think we all understand that this is a difficult time, but this company has failed to acknowledge it's issues. And, of course, still paying the exact same price for a much slower, desirable service. I've enjoyed this company for the past six years, but I think it might be time to cancel..

Gwynee Bee is my favorite place to shop bar none. I love the versatility of the clothing. I've gotten clothes that I've worn to church, weddings, taken on vacation and worn to work. The packages arrive quickly if you time it right. They have great sales. Dresses by great designers can be found at Gwynee Bees.

My professional life has changed since I joined Gwynnie Bee. Appearance is an important feature of being a leader and I had such a hard time finding appropriate outfits and those that fit well. 90% of the items I receive fit great. I love being able to choose items that I would have never chosen for my self in the store. My confidence has improved and my administrators notice me now. Thank you, Gwynnie Bee.

I'm very frustrated when I pay Up to $200 a month for this service and have to go 4-5 days without any new clothing to wear. GB needs to work on getting shipments out faster and taking into account processing and shipping times. I would've kept my higher plan if this had been done but I was Still receiving shipments slower. Besides this important issue, I am Pleased with the app and variety of styles and sizes that are a available from GB.

I have had to deal with customer service on several occasions where I misunderstood the way processing works. They took the time to show me how to get the best out of my membership! They went above and beyond what was expected when at the brink of cancellation to keep me. I only wish the would offer upgrades on the amount of articles every few months as a loyalty thank you.

It is fun to get a new box each week with clothes that make me feel good about myself. Everyday I get several compliments about the clothes I wear. I am known around my office as the stylish gal - even though I'm 50 years old. I have also added several pieces to my own wardrobe that I would have never purchased on my own. After wearing a piece that makes me feel beautiful I know I have to keep it.

Tip for consumers:
Be sure to read the details of sizing before closeting. Some items are more fitted that others in the same size.

Products used:
I filled my closet with lots of dresses. I wear them for work.

A few years ago I loved Gwynnie Bee. Turn around was fast, the brands were all high end, it felt like a great value. Since they have added/expanded their size range I feel like they are bringing more mid-range and lesser known brands. These tend to have inconsistent sizing and fit issues even when using the size charts provided. I now closet less with each new release. I have also had issues with my sizing being unavailable, which leads me to believe they are purchasing less items.

As someone who hates shopping but loves clothes, Gwynnie Bee has changed the game. I love being able to fill my closet, getting the new box and always having a variety of options! This is the best subscription ever!

Gwynnie Bee allows me to consistently try and wear new clothes - without expanding the size of my closet. I love that I can wear a new dress to work, and then send it back and try something new! It allows me to try out clothes I wouldn't normally buy, as well as rotate classics. I've had great experience with this company - and recommend it to anyone who'd enjoy adding some flair to their wardrobe every couple weeks.

All was great when I began my journey with Gwynnie Bee. Have zero complaints about the quality of the clothes for the most part. I've needed to cancel my subscription and it has been like pulling teeth & challenging as I travel for a living in many different time zones. I'm still current stuck with the account months & months after I've tried to follow all of the run around instructions I've received. I should just be able to cancel my account by logging in and choosing to do so. Just not easy or great customer service from the user perspective.

Wonderful customer service and fast turnaround. A wonderful way to enhance your business wardrobe, keep it fresh and flirty, or affordably prepare for a hot night out. I also love GB for the ease in trying out the latest fashion trends in the privacy of my own home, and without the commitment! Love it? Then you can purchase it!

I paid for my items, I cancelled my service and I got charged $142.
Just a ripoff to suck money from your bank account hoping you don't notice.
Never trust one of these companies unless you use a limited fund gift/debit card.

I was a former customer who was invited back with a discount code. I had taken a break and thought that maybe they had figured some of their kinks out, but it appears thing are worse than before. I signed up on 10/13 and today is 10/19 with still nothing even shipped. I emailed customer service and it is an inventory problem. I have 34 items in my cart that were mostly just added, apparently none of which are available anymore. As I've sat here waiting I've scoured their closet to find things in my size, knowing that the further I go back, the less likely it is I will want that garment and it will likely have more wear. They also used to update their selection 3x/week. Nothing new has been added since I joined. I understand the pandemic presents challenges but they should not be recruiting for customers they can't support.

If you have the money and you're really on top of getting things out the door to get new clothes, then this is for you.

BUT their account management is ATROCIOUS. As others have mentioned, they make you call DURING business hours to cancel your subscription. And if you call a day after it's been renewed for the month then you're paying for a month of nothing. They won't just let the subscription naturally expire.

I can not say enough about this company. I have been a member since 2014 and I couldn't imagine my life without it! I am a teacher and wear a different dress to work every single day! I get compliments every single day as well!

I was in the process of trying to lose weight and Gwynnie Bee was a perfect choice for me. It gave me the ability to choose from lots of different dresses in any size that I needed. It was great! As the get nearer to my goal weight I've decided to take a little break from Gwynnie Bee, but plan to start up again this Spring. Thanks Gwynnie Bee for helping me look stylish at work during my transformation.

I was excited to receive my 1st package (which took at least 10 days), only to find an old, faded pair of jeans and a wrinkled dress that was stretched so far past it's original state the elastic had snapped in some places. I didn't even try on. A total disappointment. If this is what their company considers good looking clothes I guess in looking in the wrong place.

Tip for consumers:
If you like mediocre clothes at steep prices your in luck!
