Hi Ruth,
You're right to chase, and I'm sorry you've had to. Your refund should have been actioned when you first asked on the 29th, and I let you down by not coming back to you sooner.
I've now authorised the full refund of £39.95 on order #1987. It's going back to your original payment method and should reach you within 3 to 5 business days.
Please do keep the tankini - there's nothing to send back and nothing further you need to do.
I'm sorry the fit and the quality weren't what you were expecting, and sorrier still that getting this sorted took as long as it did.
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi there,
Good news! I can see your order 1987, 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 Ruth,
Thank you for getting back to me, and I'm sorry to hear both the sizing and the overall quality haven't lived up to what you were hoping for.
Since the free replacement in a different size isn't the answer, I'd like to put this right in another way. Rather than asking you to cover the cost of shipping it back overseas - which is expensive and can take weeks - what I'd suggest is this: we put a 10% refund straight back onto your original payment method, and you keep the item with our compliments. The refund would land within 3 to 5 business days.
Would that work for you?
Warm regards,
Anna
