A Disappointing Experience at Mark Formel: When Customer Service Falls Short

summarizeEditor's Summary

I'm still fuming about our recent visit to Mark Formel on Victory Street in Gomel. My daughter and her friend went to buy a bra, but the sales staff completely ignored a weird noise coming from my daughter's bag. When they finally checked, they accused my daughter of stealing something and yelled at her in front of the whole store. Needless to say, we won't be back anytime soon. The whole experience was a huge letdown, and their poor customer service really left a bad taste in our mouths.

A Disappointing Experience at Mark Formel: When Customer Service Falls Short
We've been loyal customers of Mark Formel for our daughter's clothes, and recently, we've been shopping at their new store on Victory Street in Gomel. Last Friday, June 10th, after 5 pm, my daughter took her friend there to buy a bra.
When they entered the store, my daughter's bag made a weird noise, and she stopped in her tracks. But the sales staff completely ignored it - not even a nod or a question about whether everything was okay.
After they bought the clothes and paid, they headed to the exit, and the noise happened again. By then, it was pretty clear that the noise was coming from her bag. My daughter stopped, and then one of the sales staff members yelled at her in front of the whole store: 'Maybe you stole something?' Can you believe that?
My daughter was shocked, and she said, 'Can you check?' and opened her backpack. The sales staff member checked and found nothing, then said with a snobbish tone, 'You can go.' No apology, no nothing. Just a dismissive attitude.
My daughter came home crying. I was furious when she told me what happened. I suggested we go back the next day to clear things up with this sales staff member, but my daughter said she felt so humiliated that she couldn't even think about it, and she didn't even want to tell me about it.
She said she's now too afraid to go back to the store, in case something makes a noise again, and her friend said she won't go back either. I'm not going back either - to a store that treated my daughter like that.
You know, I've got Italian shoes that always make a noise when I enter or exit stores with those security things. But no one's ever spoken to me like that in any store. I guess some people just don't know how to treat customers with respect.
I've been a loyal customer of Mark Formel for years, and I've always had a good experience. But this incident has left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to their store again.
I hope that Mark Formel will take this incident seriously and train their staff to be more customer-friendly. A simple apology and a smile can go a long way in making customers feel valued and respected.
Until then, I'd advise others to think twice before shopping at Mark Formel. There are plenty of other stores in Gomel that offer better customer service and a more pleasant shopping experience.
