March 2010                           Customer feedback from our Musselburgh store!
Hi Kevin
Just a quick email to thank you very much again for all your help in kitting out Ali.
He's absolutely over the moon with the outfit - so are we.
It looks fantastic, and if he does go over to the States after the summer he'll be a big hit when he wears it!
You provided an outstanding service, especially considering Ali isn't a regular fit - Willie's recommendation was spot on.
Hope business is booming (how could it be anything but?!!)
Thanks again,
Duncan.

February 2010                            Customer feedback from our Edinburgh store!

To Whom this may concern,
 
How often do you hear people complain about bad customer service compared to those you hear commend excellent customer service? That is why I felt compelled to write this email.
 
My Fiance, Sister-in Law, Nephews and I where in your Haymarket branch on Sunday 06 December to get our Nephews fitted for Kilt outfits for my My Fiances and I forthcoming nuptials.
We where served by Hannah, who made the whole experience an absolute joy for us all especially the children (who said they weren't wearing kilts!). Our Nephew Lewis is Autistic and has Down Syndrome, most sales assistants don't know how to act around Lewis, but Hannah just treated him the same as the other children, which was very heart-warming to see. She was very professional, but at the same time made it fun for the children, and she seemed to be having fun herself which was great for us all. Lewis even asked for a cuddle when we where leaving the shop. The children where that taken by her they even asked if they finished all their dinner if the could go and see her again.
All in all we could not of asked for better service than we received, it truly has been the best we have received, and we will definitely recommend your service to all our friends and family. Hannah truly is a credit to you as a company and to herself.
Well done Hannah, but most of all thank you so very, very much. 
 
Yours Sincerely
 
Kay
