So I called the 800 number and less than 5 minutes later we figured out what size I should replace it with (it seems all of these suits are mislabled size wise) and my suit is now in the process of being shipped. Bravo Disneyshopping customer service!

They sent me another Aurora which was completely useless since I had one already in my order!!!

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I'm glad you had a good experience! I've just recently had a VERY annoying customer service experience with disneyshopping.com. I ordered a few items when they had the 'free gift' deal a couple of weeks ago, the free gift being a muppets fleece. The next day they started a 20% off sale and sent me an email advising me that the Muppets fleece was unavailable or could not be shipped internationally, and basically, too bad. I wrote back politely stating that I was a bit disappointed I wasn't given the option of having a further discount or another free gift (my main gripe being I would have waited for a sale if I'd known I wouldn't get the free gift) since that was what was promised to me (and it was included in my shopping basket). They obviously didn't even read my email and responded saying that I couldn't cancel my order because they'd already charged my credit card. I wrote back a more strongly worded (although still polite) email saying no one had read my previous email and I thought it was wrong to charge my credit card for my order without giving me the change to cancel or change my order (not that I would have cancelled it, but that's not the point). No reply to that one at all. I'm glad you had a better experience, though!

I emailed back asking for confirmation of what would be happening and if they are to be cancelled could I select an alternative as I don't want to pay shipping again and they are for gifts. It's now friday and i've had no reply!!!

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I'm pretty sure they cut the catalogue off about a year ago. That was the main way I saw what they have, and I really haven't gotten anything from them since then, because I just haven't had a physical reminder that they have new stuff. Their loss, I guess.
Originally Posted By LacyBelle That's what I was thinking. Since they've apparently taken me off email distribution, they've missed out on some of my Disney $$$. Their loss is DH's gain. ;-)
