Hi Lesley,
Thank you for confirming - that's brilliant. I'm processing the 10% cashback to your original payment method now. It should land within 3 to 5 business days.
I'm sorry we couldn't find the right fit, but I hope this makes things easier.
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi there,
Good news! I can see your order 1503, and we've arranged a free replacement in the correct size for you.
You can keep the one you already have, for a small contribution of £4.95, and there's nothing to send back. Just let me know which size you'd like instead and I will get that sorted for you right away.
If you'd rather not exchange, just let me know and I can look at other options too.
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi Lesley,
Thank you for explaining, and I completely understand - it is genuinely tricky when you are between sizes, and you do not want to end up with something that still does not fit well either.
Rather than arrange a return (which would cost you £19.95 to send back to our overseas supplier, take 3 to 4 weeks for the round trip, and mean the refund only processes once it arrives and is checked), I would like to offer you a 10% cashback to your original payment method instead.
The cashback lands within 3 to 5 business days - no postage, no waiting, and you keep the suit. It is a much simpler option than a return, and honestly works out better for you.
Would that work for you?
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi Anna
Thank you for your prompt reply and suggestion .
I would be happy to accept your offer of a 10% cash back to save spending more money and time in postage.
The choice of swimwear in my area of London is very poor hence the attraction of buying online but I didn’t realise the cost of returning this garment was so expensive.
I look forward to hearing from you .
Regards Lesley
