“DO NOT TRUST these guys with your wedding outfits!”

Written on: 31/12/2012 by Kirillius (6 reviews written)

AVOID - you do not want your wedding to be jeopardised by these guys' incompetence. Used this company via DEBENHAMS in Oxford St. London to hire a groom's outfit. Had a fitting session and ordered the items, which took several weeks to come into the store. Picked up the items just before the wedding and realised that the tie that was delivered was not the one I placed the order for. At that point it was all too late to change anything with people at the store being adamant saying this is... (read more)

The return date for suits is next working day after the function, the outfits for 2 days late and as a result charges were applied as per terms and conditions that are explained to all customers at the time of booking

Written on: 23/10/2012

there were no comments at the time of the booking about returning the suits at a particular time, as neither me or my best man heard!! , nether the less debenhams nor youngs can be bothered to reply to findings there were "looking into" or their area manager was looking into! THEY NEVER SAID WHEN DUE BACK!! and how many people read their receipt apart from cost?? and after explaining when collecting that i`d misplaced it , PLEASE READ FULLY BEFORE COMMENTING < AND OH CHANGE THE RECORD!!!!!!!!!!

“BE AWARE. DO NOT USE!!!”

Written on: 25/07/2011

I advise anyone looking for suit hire not to use this company via DEBENHAMS. I looked everywhere for wedding suits found one i liked. went to Debenhams was told i can order them any time upto 12 days before our wedding. I told the person we would arrange for fittings 3 months before the wedding, also told him we was arranging the whole colour theme around the colour of the suit. Guess what? Phoned up 8 weeks later, 3 months before our wedding like i said before, yes you guessed it they... (read more)

“disgraceful service”

Written on: 23/06/2011 by antpulham (1 review written)

i ordered my suits and waistcoats back in January. in total i had 1 whole suit, 7 waistcoats with shirts and cravats. waistcoats are meant to be the same except from mine ( the grooms ) took 1 group to be measured 1 morning, done no problem, when i took the 2nd group to be measured in the afternoon it turned out that the bloke put down that the 2nd has already been measured. COMPLETELY WRONG. so had to make a 3rd trip to get everyone measured. i changed the type of waistcoat 3 months before... (read more)

The lady @ Suits You Ashford bent over backwards, my dad was difficult to say the least, he didn't want to wear tails but by the end she had him eating out of her hands, when the suits arrived and we went in for the fitting there was a few items that didn't fit but all were re ordered, the quality of the suits wasn't the best but a good experience.

Written on: 14/09/2010

Appauling! Do not use Youngs suit hire. The Cambridge Petty Cury Branch had the rudest store manager, staff are not trained and have no ideas what they're doing. It is 8 days until our wedding and 3 out of 5 suits are wrong again, and in sooo many ways. We have informed them of there error and they and they just keeping sending more sizes, which are all still WRONG!! If I ask for a 32x28, dont send me a 36x27, or a 32x32. I want a 32x28...no chance. Staff are rude, blame the warehouse... (read more)

Written on: 08/09/2010 by Dressmaker (1 review written)

Booked for a wedding suit at Hatfield Galleria at Suits You. Manager, very unhelpful. No tail coats to try for size and fit, so used a suit jacket off the rack. Said at start we shouldn't expect anything wonderful as it was hired. When it came in you could have put a pillow up the front of the jacket. Waistcoat back of such poor quality, the inside label was clearly visible from outside. Shirt provided, looked like a cheap kids school shirt in polycotton. Waistcoat delivered in wrong colour....

Her suits were meant to be here on 26th August 2010, only 3 turned up, then they told her deffantly would be here on 31st August 2010 still no suits turned up.

“Under no circumstances use this company. ”

Under no circumstances use this company.
Had to give 1 star as 0 star was not an option.

Ordered wedding suits 8 months in advance. They were not available 10 days before as advertised. 7 days before every single suit was wrong. Nothing fit, 6ft4in Usher was given a boys suit with 31 inside leg- His inside leg is more than 33in!

Company could not supply the correct items and 4 days before the wedding they said they would have to give us a refund and we would have to use another company or... (read more)

wedding in 8 days away and the 7 suits were ordered with youngs! 1 measurement got lost and it might be in 2 days before the wedding! i asked the guy who had an attitude that stank, what if the suit didnt fit! the answer i got was that he would give me money towards tailoring. What a complete joke. One of the other suits has no trousers and another has no waistcoat or jacket! Wouldnt recommend them if they were the last place on earth! (read more)

Written on: 18/08/2010 by andyjjj (1 review written)

Having ordered an initial 9 suits for our wedding party 3 months before the wedding, it's now 8 days before and we are still having problems with Youngs Suit Hire.

Each member of the party was measured in store at the Fort Shopping centre, Birmingham 6 weeks before and for almost every person this was done incorrectly. Some sizes had to be rung through to the warehouse by a staff member, but this was not done and we were left in limbo whether they could actually obtain these sizes, even... (read more)

I can't begin to describe my disappointment in this store. Just hired Tails for wedding from the trafford centre. Store. Left waiting for half an hour at the fitting even though staff were not doing anything. When I went to pick up my suit informed they had lost my measurements. Told they would rush one for the next day. It never showed up. Continually ignored my phone calls - I witnessed assistant pretending not to be in the store when other disgruntled customers (and I witnessed plenty... (read more)

Six of us went for fitting of our morning suits, only one person gets everything in correct size. They promised all should be ok at next fitting, keeping fingers crossed. Overheard other group got the same problem. Do they realised how stressful to organise a wedding, the last thing I want is to worry about bestman & usher morning suits. Should have gone to somwhere else. (read more)

Went to SuitYou Hatfield 3 weeks before event to hire morning suit for Royal Ascot on 15th June, went in Sat. am to pick it up, they got the wrong size, boy size 34 was given. Manager said it's OUR FAULT for not picking up early so as to detect the wrong size. After spending one hour arguing, we give in and went to Moss two stores down. Wow, they are so helpful, although they can help us on the hire, she phoned their branches and managed to get us ex-hired to buy. Late on found out the... (read more)

I get back next week, my fiance dropped into the Birmingham Bull ring store where we set up the order to make sure there were no problems (2 1/2 weeks until the wedding) and...

Written on: 18/01/2010

All was okay and I got myself measured. However, when the suit came through the size of the trousers wasn't right. The clothes were very worned out. Their stock is definately re-used a number of times before they actually bin it. The shop staff were nice but they can't help you. I think its not actually their fault since they have no control over whats kept in stock at their main warehouse. They do not have all sizes in stock and I was told that its too late for them to do anything although... (read more)

The store was in McArthurGlen, off Junction 28 of the M1.

Having chosen our suits and paid in full for the suit hire, we were told to return at a later date for measurements. We made our appointment and turned up on time. My father-in-law and I were told to hang fire because the assistant was serving someone else. We were then kept waiting for thirty minutes with no explanation or apology. The assistant then advised us to go and have a look around the shopping centre as it was going to take... (read more)

Youngs Hire - I initially felt nervous and thought I would be pressured into buying something which I wouldn't like or even fit, simply for the store to depart with my money. However, they were patient and helpful and I left with the most comfortable and appropriate suit. The staff were patient and very helpful, which made the experience enjoyable to a certain extent. I highly recommend this tailor/retailer for all your formal needs since their apparal is of very high quality and comes with... (read more)

I can highly recommend Young's Hire at the Lakside Suits You. I got married in august 2003 and they provided an Excellent service. I walked in and was measured up on the spot, while the rest of my party were able to go to any other suits you for a fitting. We received all of our outfits a week before to try on and when one did not fit it was replaced the next day by courier! I am truly grateful to all the staff at the lakeside suits you for such a friendly, professional service. I have... (read more)

Having phoned ahead and made an appoinment for three of us at lakeside Youngs Hire (suits you), was lost for words when this so called shop assistant told us he only had one size of jacket to try, we couldn't try on any trousers, or shirts. At no point during the very short time we were there did a tape measure make an appearance. I have to say that we walked out in the end, because I am not sure how you can decide on a suit for the most important day of your life (wedding) on a whim or just... (read more)
