Customer experienced slow refund processing and no free returns.
“They do not offer free returns and are slow to offer refunds.”
Reviews consistently praise Modes for authentic designer items, careful packaging and rapid delivery in positive cases. Multiple reviewers highlight product authenticity and condition (for example, an authentic Prada bag with authenticity cards). However, at least one customer reported slow refunds, no free returns and the need to chase the company, which affected their willingness to shop again. If product authenticity and presentation are your primary concerns, these reviews indicate strengths; if return speed and refund policy are critical, check Modes' returns and refund terms before buying.

Be careful of this company. I was disappointed in their service as a new customer - as much as I love the clothing they sell and wanted to try more for my little niece, I cannot buy from them in future.
They do not offer free returns and are slow to offer refunds. Mine took 3 weeks and I had to chase them to get it. To be fair, responses to my emails were quick. But as other reviews say, it's not the service we expect from a company presenting themselves as high-end clothing and service. I’m reluctant to try again and I would not advise anyone to shop from them.
