Dunnes Stores Return Policy????

    I bought an item in the home section in Dunnes Stores, and now I want to return it.
    I actually cut off the tag but I still have it, and I still have my receipt, so can I return/exchange this even if the tag is unattached? Thanks!

    It'll be down to the store, but I would imagine they'll give you a credit note as a gesture of goodwill. I doubt you'll get your money back if you've cut off the tag, as they might not be able to re-sell the item.

    More often than not Dunnes give a full refund. Why not just ask them?

    It depends on the manager I imagine, if you go in and are nice to them they may allow an exchange or refund, but they don't give credit notes as far as I am aware, just refunds/exchanges.

    Good luck anyway.

    You bought it in Dunnes, you have a receipt, the receipt probably has the phone number or you can get the number on,line

    well here's an idea - ring them and ask??

    And guess what - you will have a correct answer to your question.

    2 threads 4 question marks. Take a deep, deep breath and don't rile yourself up for a fight or get yourself worked up into tears. As a retail manager you can tell this a mile off and it just puts you on your guard.

    Just go in and politely ask, be prepared to negotiate and ideally do an exchange. If they refuse you they are perfectly entitled to do so, but I find trying another store and getting another manager works wonders.

    EDIT: Sorry to disagree with Sandin but I'd personally go straight in, on the phone you're much more likely to get the policy answer rather than some discretion. The point that it makes more sense to ask them rather than asking here, presumably to the try and force the situation is well made though.

    +1. This reminds me of the argos thread, where the company policy had posters saying they would not honour a lower price if the price went up after you had reserved it, but 5 people said they got the lower prices, and not one confirmed that they were refused.

    By asking here you might get more tips. My tip would be to go to senior looking staff, younger staff might not have the authority to "bend the rules" (if they need bending) and they might not care as much about customer service or company goodwill. It can be simply easier for them to say no.

    Thanks for the help everyone, I just went to Dunnes and I went to the Customer Service desk, and she allowed me to exchange it for something of equal price! :)
