SWELL

Don't buy this place is a scam!
I bought 2 dresses and after waiting past the stated time frame for shipping, I reached out. They never responded to my messages. I opened a dispute with PayPal which caused them to reach out. They promised to refund me but needed the dispute canceled. I canceled the dispute, and then they REFUSED to refund me. Thankfully I can reopen the dispute with PayPal and am currently awaiting for my refund feom the duspute.

This is an extremely dishonest and unethical company. Don't walk away, run! They don't care if you are unhappy, they don't care if you want to cancel within 14 days. They keep your money even when they turn off all aspects of the app (at my request). I would advise everyone to avoid this company at every possible level.

Stole my money - Ordered a dress that never arrived, I have sent 20 emails over five months requesting a refund and they have either ignored the email or said 'just wait it will arrive' - obviously it never did. DO NOT BUY FROM SWELLSHE

NceCan't seem to usethis website at all. Don't have time to wait and figure it out. Very frustrating experience

After Reading The Abundance Of Bad Reviews For this Website, I Second Guessed myself when wanting to Purchase A Swimsuit Top that I really Wanted from here BC of the better price but then I thought about it for a couple Days and decided for the first time to Try it Anyway knowing that it would be my fault if something happened. I''m So glad I went with with my gut instinct and didn't let the reviews sway me BC everything Went GREAT! Shipping, Size, Price and most of all the FIT Was Perfect! Don't believe everything you read.

I had an experience in the past where a return took months to be applied to my account... that was followed by an apology from customer service. Now, I return another package which was purchased on 7/6/2016 and still no credit yet... WTH takes so long to process folks? If you purchase something from this company and need to return it, be prepared to wait for your money to return to your account... poorest of service on this aspect from swell... will never purchase from them again. Calling credit card company Monday morning.

This site has everything- awesome, quality gear and the sickest threads for dudes and chicks! They've got new stuff on sale practically every day for anyone whose not trying to break the bank and regardless the regular threads they have aren't even that pricey either. Super sweet site for anyone looking for pretty much anything! Any surfers, beach bums, or anyone definitely should check it out!

I ordered a couple items for Christmas gifts 2 day delivery. I never received them. When I got hold of the company after Christmas I was told my order was cancelled. Apparently they don't update their inventory online real time so you wont know if your order is really filled until its too late. Do yourself a favor and order elsewhere.

I had fantastic customer service! Sam the surf specialist helped me out greatly on deciding on what surf board to get as a beginner but still be able to keep and hold on to when I get better and swell runs great promotions! Like with my cart i was able to put in a promotional code that gave me a portable shower to rinse off at my car after the beach I had nothing but a great experience with this website so I'd personally like to say thanks to both Sam and Swell!

So- there were some good sale prices. But the site kept freezing. So I had to keep leaving and re-entering the site. This took forever. Perhaps because of this, after placing the order, I received an email that my two favorite items were no longer available. So I decided to chat. Thinking there may be something similar. The lady I got stuck with was incredibly rude. Completely unwilling to work with me. Also, completely unwilling to work with me regarding a price matching request. I was told she was the only one there, so I had no other options. Then she did something that NEVER has been done before. She rudely left the chat prior to its completion. I couldn't be more disappointed. As another Site Jabber member also had difficulties actually getting sale items. In that case, Swell offered 30% of future purchases. In this case, they cancelled TWO items, and refused to even apologize. I'm wondering if their customer service continues to get worse and worse.

DO NOT order from this website! I ordered a pair of boots over 2 weeks ago and they have STILL not arrived. I was never emailed a tracking number so I have had to call Swell multiple times to track my package. Each time, they have told me "it is still in transit" and given me a different delivery day. I can't believe I paid $5 for shipping to take 2 WEEKS. This company is absolutely ridiculous and I do NOT recommend them at all. I wish I could give negative stars.

I ordered 4 swim items. 3 of the 4 we completely wrong. When called customer service they said the pictures on the website were wrong. They cant get their website straight or their orders. Dont order from them!

I ordered a surf board as a birthday gift for our son who lives in a different state. I ordered it hoping to have it arrive just before his bd. Nothing. I had gotten a confirmation email that stated I would receive another when it was shipped. I waited 2 full weeks and called Swell. My order had been thrown out as a fraudulent order! The explanation was something about a different IP address. Like most people I frequently order things on my credit card and have them shipped to other people across the country. I was told I did not get a follow up email to say the order had been thrown out b/c those emails were auto-generated. What? I pressed for a better explanation and none was forthcoming. I was told I would have to go back on line, reorder the surf board and then call or email with the NEW order # so it would not once again be thrown out as fraudulent! They would not take the info and handle it for me on the phone b/c it was a recorded line. The surf board was almost $50 more the 2nd time I ordered it and they did "refund" me the difference. I hope. The 1st person I spoke with apologized. The 2nd person was as lackadaisical as I've heard. I am still baffled how a company that handles world wide orders can't handle a different billing and shipping address! They had the form for that when paying but obviously you won't get past receiving a confirmation email saying your order is soon to be shipped. If you want repeat business give the customer a call or at the very least an email if your computer decides the order is fraudulent! Maybe I should've rated them 1 star but I guess it could've been worse. Not sure how as far as customer service however. And we haven't completed the process yet. We shall see if the 'refund' is made and the board actually arrives this time.

I've placed at least 10 orders from Swell in the past and have had nothing but good experiences doing so. Their prices on clothing is nearly unbeatable and they constantly have great sales going. I often times end up purchasing alot more clothing than I intended to buy when I started shopping because of ridiculous sale prices. I did have to return 2 items back in January and the return process was a little slow but I did get my refund about 2 weeks after I shipped the items back.

I was a little skeptical about ordering from here... but I went for it anyway. I received my order today and everything was perfect. Moral of the story don't always believe what you read.

"Worst customer service and worst company EVER. I ordered a pair of shoes, they were the wrong size. When I tried to return them, they wouldn't accept them because of a "damaged shoe box"! What a pathetic excuse to keep my money. So now I not only paid for the shoe, the shipping, the return shipping, but the shipping back to me since they would otherwise discard it, hence taking both my shoes and my money! Customer service was unhelpful, basically kept saying it was my fault! Never shopping there again! "

I was turned on by a friend to the incredible variety of surf stuff at Swell.com. With my first order I've been jazzed, stoked and very very satisfied. In particular, Jessica in their Customer Service division has made my experience at Swell wrinkle-free. She even resolved a gift with purchase that I had missed. I ordered some stuff for my son and told him to call Jessica if in the unlikely event he had any problems. This is a good spot.

Living near Charlotte NC limits my availability of excellent Surfwear. Quality surf shops are 4 or more hours away. Swell has filled that spot for me. I love their selection of high quality gear and they have shipped all my orders within days of them being placed. Many times the items come all the way across the US in 2 days as well. I had one item in an order that was of the wrong color but it was taken care of in a timely matter and I never even had to email or call customer service. I just filled out their return forms online and waited patiently. Everything worked out well. I ALWAYS look forward to their emails as they seem to always include a discount code and gives me a new look at items I might not ever browse. They've got my business!

My account and email receipt showed/rejected no delivery status information, whatsoever, since the time of purchase. I even emailed issue to customer service and never received a return response. After nervously awaiting for this family member Xmas gift to show up, it eventually came in the mail a week and a half later... what a negative experience that was!

I bought a wetsuit it had a hole in it so I returned it along with 3 other items. Two weeks and no credit back I contacted customer service they said they had no way of tracking returns other than me logging in the websit except my tracking number said it was received two weeks prior and the website with my order said nothing about a return. Another week goes by I reach out again and they send me 4 gift codes for store credit. I needed my money back so I could get a wetsuit like I intended in the first place. Now Have no wetsuit and 300 credit to a store I don't want to buy anything from. They send me merchandise that's damaged it's returned in the 30 day window AND I don't get my money back BEWARE when shopping this website. They will take your money.

I've been buying things off and on from Swell for years. Never had a problem until recently. I placed an order and was charged but never received any shipping information on it. I had to email customer service and it took 3 days to get a reply. As of today, I placed my order 2 weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived. I'm in San Diego. Swell is in Irvine. How it takes a package 2 weeks to come an hour south, I do not know. But I do know that Tilly's will be getting my business from now on. See ya Swell.

Decent selection and deals. Inaccurate inventory.
