Discusting customer service at Halls Head store WA – Terrible customer service at Halls Head store. Purchased 2 pair of shoes 1 full price and 1 1/2 price, returned 1/2 price pair. Selected more expensive replacement. Refunded 1/2 price pair and charged full price for replacement ie paid for 2 full price shoes. Complained as no discount given. Salesperson argued and offered me a small refund… Read more
which was worked out via calculator. Decided to settle for that as no point arguing any further with this sales person in front of customers. Turned out she debited my bank account instead of crediting me. I returned and explained her error to which she continued to argue with me and would not rectify her error. 3 emails to Williams head office and 3 phone calls. Ten days later I recieved a call to go to store and get my refund. The manager gave me a refund to correct the debit they charged me but have still not given me the discount on second pair of shoes. Have given up trying to obtain the correct refund! This situation has been stressfull and frustrating and to add insult to injury I had no apologies from the staff at Halls Head store. Be aware, don't expect any customer service if you're requiring a refund.
Customer service and product quality – My husband and I visited the Williams store in westlakes on the 15th august.The service we received from Gianni was fantastic, being very polite, interested in us as customers and knowledgeable. You must be congratulated on having such a fine young man as an employee. Show details
Great customer service Grandplaza Browns Plains – Spoke to the store person who was really helpful. He knew exactly what type of shoe and colour that would suit me especially with the colours I was going to wear. I tried on a couple of pairs and I was very happy with the choices I made with his helpful input. Highly recommended Grandplaza Browns Plains. Show details
Williams Leopold Victoria – I was acknowledged as soon as I arrived in the store on Friday 16 Dec 2022. I like browsing the bargain section at the back corner. I found a shoe that I liked & asked the customer service rep for the other. Catherine retrieved that quickly. The shoes were very comfortable; I made the decision to purchase them. Colorado Sure Grip. Good value for… Read more

I bought a pair of shoes today at the Winston Hills store. I had a lovely experience by a customer service lady working there. Even though she was busy, she was pleasant, helpful & kind. I will shop here anytime Show details · 1
Bought a pair of shoes on Monday and received the half price offer. My shoe choice wasn't in my size so it was ordered. Imagine my surprise when my order turned up this morning. 2 days!! Well done Williams. That's fantastic customer service. Can't thank you enough! Show details
Great customer service – Williams shoe store in Watergardens is the best place to buy shoes as they have great customer service. Also they refund which is great , Betts don’t refund so won’t be going there again.
Negative reviews
Poor customer service, staff member obviously didn’t want to be there or help me. Wouldn’t measure my child’s foot. Rude. Almost job existent children’s range. Wouldn’t check fit at all. Disappointed. ☹️ Show details
Was insulted during fitting – I was insulted and given inaccurate information about my health and growth. The worker serving me was insulting me and had no clue what she was doing. I left the shop feeling annoyed due to her words.
The worst customer service ever – Worst customer service I have ever encountered ever , and don't even think about trying to return for a warranty enquiry . No matter what you say, they don't listen or even assess the product in question, just keep repeating " Wear and Tear " So sad, they are going to ruin this business. As I won't be returning, and many people I've spoken to, say the same. Port Central, Port Macquarie Show details

I bought a pair of shoes online from Williams. They were a little small even though I had shoes from Colorado in that size. I took the shoes to a store and a very easy and efficient exchange process. The assistant was courteous and offered a similar shoes in the next size up in exchange. The process was very quick. Very pleased with Williams exchange policy and its application. Show details
My experience with Williams Shoes was really good! I was going to return a pair of sandals and Alex from the Carindale branch in Brisbane was really helpful and patient. A very professional man with excellent customer service. Because of that, I will shop there again in the future. Thank you very much! :-)
Follow-up · I had to return these sandals because I have flatfoot and I felt uncomfortable wearing the right sandal. Nothing is wrong with these sandals; the quality is very high with a fair price. The brand is called Sole-Tech Perry S3. It was easy to return the second pair I bought because I did not wear them at all (only the first pair). Customer service is very good. All the sellers there are helpful and patient.

After my wife had problems online, she approached the physical store in Westfield Marion for help with fit and sizing. She received such helpful service from Bianca in the store that she purchased two pairs on the spot. This lead me to the same… Read more
store and to Bianca for an overdue purchase. I too came away with two pairs and was blown away with the friendly, helpful service. Top job Bianca!!!
Follow-up · The person in-store understood the fit and sizing issues my wife was experiencing. Bianca offered a shoe that had the best fit for her foot and at the best price. The store atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, no high pressure sales tactics and in our cases, there were plenty of choices and if the item wasn't in-store as happened to me, they arranged for stock to be delivered from another store.
Amazing customer service – I receive amazing service from Rita at the Greensborough Plaza store. Friendly, helpful, and always goes beyond to help source a shoe, if not available her store. Show details
Great service – Always get ourstanding service from this store. Well presented store with lots of choices. I f they don't have your size they will order online. Amy always has a smile and is very helpful
Very good shoe shop – I got very good service at Williams shoes, although when I went in they were fairly busy. They brought out suitable footwear and continued to do so on request, until I had made my decision.
Great shopping experience – While holidaying in Port Macquarie with friends, we ended up buying 7 pairs between the 4 of us. We only went in to browse. The service by the two ladies on Sunday 28th of April 2024 was so lovely we spent more time indulging in shopping for shoes than we thought we would Show details
Fake prices – Really annoyed that a cheap pair of vinyl shoes was advertised as 159 reduced to 79 Clearly a case of fake advertising As the average cost of vinyl is 40 to 60 dollars 159 come on we were not born yesterday Forcing you to buy 2 pairs to get a discount is also poor Just discount each pair Its pure greed
Not interested in assisting unless they are making a sale – store: Joondalup WA. Bought a pair of shoes and in 10 months they basically fell apart - top away from bottom (left shoe). Were not that cheap, selling price $149. Phoned in and a sales lady said bring them over. Got there 2 days later, different sales lady - not interested so I gave them to her as they probably could not be fixed which was on… Read more
the 24.3.24 @ 4:30 pm (probably because it was near closing time and this was not what they wanted to deal with). Emailed customer service, there were not interested either. I bought elsewhere. Ironic as their motto is: "Our brands showcase the best of Australian design, in styles built to last"
Disappointed with the service at Runaway Bay store – I bought two pairs of sandals. The new staff member was left without supervision and gave me the display shoes and when I said that I am a member, she ignored me. Then the supervisor arrived and could not find me on the system. I have been to other stores and always had such a good experience but not this time. The new staff need to be assisted, especially when two other staff members are there and available. Show details
Terrible customer service – Went into my local store which is Halls Head Western Australia wanting to purchase a new pair of sandals. Tried on the left and then asked for the right to try. The team member went out the back comes back out no sandal. Doesnt advise me if they had one or how long it would take. Then just ignored me and served someone else. I stood there waiting… Read more
still no acknowledgement about the sandals. I waited for at least 10 minutes so in the end I walked out.

ALL TALK – Wodonga Plaza Sales person [Name Removed] I purchased a pair of shows (Colorado Sneakers) $100. at first I was really impressed, I am still impressed with their fit and comfort but I noticed that after about 3 months the cloth at inside heel area is torn (BOTH SHOES) I went in to see them and [Name Removed] told me if I wanted shoes to last I need… Read more
to spend about $200 or more that these shoes are only expected to last 12 months,, I told him that was not what he told me when I purchased them for I told him I always had gotten my previous ones at cheaper places and were disappointed that I had to get new shoes every year or so.... I would not do anything to help me BUT TO RECOMMEND THAT I GET EXPENSIVE ONES (sorry I thought $100 was expensive for sneakers) I came home and called Head Office told them what all [Name Removed] had told they said "He never should have said that as we expect them to last much longer than that" I was told that an Area Manager would be calling me,, TODAY, I called back and said I was still waiting, now after business hours and still no call... Also was told my points on my account which gave you money off future sales were now no good as they had stopped this with NO NOTICE GIVEN TO US,, Well they lost this family's business. AND I WILL BE TELLING ALL ABOUT THIS...

Fantastic customer service from Katrina at Williams Lansell Plaza – Today I received wonderful customer from Katrina at Lansell Plaza. The store was very busy and she was there serving multiple customers at once by herself. The store itself is not very big and is easy to navigate. Nothing was too much trouble. Katrina was also able to find alternative solutions if a particular shoe couldn't be found in my size. Such an asset to the store. Show details
Shoes marked with wrong size – I purchased Four pairs of shoes, all were marked size 8. When I tried them on at home I discovered one pair was clearly a size longer than the others. I returned that pair later in the day and was declined a refund despite the sales person agreeing that the shoes were marked the wrong size. Show details
Lazy staff – I went to Williams in Hornsby. The girl (staff) was busy looking herself in the mirror, didn’t greet customer. I have to ask her for sizes and she gave and left the box on the seat. She’s so lazy. Maybe she never works in the shoe shop before. No wonder, people came inside the store and went off straight away with that poor customer service. I feel bad for the owner. Not good for business
Fantastic Service – I desperately needed 2 pairs of shoes so visited Williams at Knox City. The sales assistant, Janine, was brilliant patiently bringing out all types of shoes as I was having trouble finding the exact ones. She was very friendly & attentive the whole 1.5 hours I was there. I will certainly shop there again. Oh & we did find the right shoes. Show details
Good and bad – The shoes I have from Williams are great, but every time I go in there my size shoe is never in and they won't get anymore in I need to find somewhere that has a bit amount of different sizes, this is every time except once I managed to get a pair
Wonderful service – I was desperately trying to find a new pair of zahlah-su black and white shoes to replace my old ones which have been so extremely comfortable. I googled all over the place and found that the Werribee branch of Williams sells them. I rang , spoke to a lady whose name I wish I could remember, and she was wonderful. She was so lovely and helpful,… Read more
offering old fashioned service in the best sense of the word. Within a couple of days the shoes arrived at my house. Thank you so very much to this lovely lady, and the store.
Very helpful – The dude Edi was very helpful and patient helping me find a pair a school shoes the store was very easy to navigate I found what I wanted almost straight away Show details
Toowoomba store manager – Without a doubt the rudest individual ever. No help to speak of, didn't even look at us let alone smile. Then found out she was the manager. Dont bother going there unless you want to leave in a bad mood. An idea would be to attempt to be civil to your customers, your already getting terrible reviews.
