THIS COMPANY IS AWFUL! Save your money and go elseware . After they filed for Bankruptcy in Canada, another company purchased them and they no longer will honour any credit notes or gift cards. I was told back in June of 2023, that due to the bankruptcy filings, Davids bridal would no longer honour any credits they had after May of 2023. They did not contact anyone, and the only way that you would have found out about this was if you happened to go into the store and saw a very tiny note on their checkout counter. I had purchased a wedding gown in September of 2021. Within days I was not happy with my decision and decided to bring it back. Their return policy mentioned 7 days for a refund, and I had gone back within 9 days. As such, I received a credit for the full amount of $1,600. I was told this credit would NEVER expire. They did not indicate that if there was a bankruptcy this would void this credit. Over the year and a half until their bankruptcy filings, I used some of the credit to purchase a bachelorette dress, shoes, accessories, and some things for my bachelorette. I had about $1,100 left to spend. When I went in this year, in June of 2023 to grab a few items for my wedding, I was given the surprise that my credit notes were no longer valid. I was told to submit a claim to their bankruptcy agency Omni who was overseeing their claims. I was told to send in the receipts and then I would be apart of the claims process. I received an email advising my claim was submitted, but I never heard back after that. Then I recently emailed them to inquire about my claim, and this was the response I received, see below:
David's Bridal, LLC filed for bankruptcy and all of its assets were purchased by a new owner during the bankruptcy. After the sale of assets and transfer of ownership, David's Bridal, Inc. was established as a new company on July
21, 2023.

Essentially me, along with probably thousands of people are SOL!. I took a look on reddit and I found many people in the same boat.
I am SICK AND TIRED of these company's doing this. Filing for bankruptcy, dipping on customers and not providing their money back. This is disgusting behaviour and it needs to end. I saw the bad boys bankruptcy filings and how much people lost over that. I am mortified. I am an extremely hard working person, and I had the faith in this company that eventually I would be able to get my money back in the form of purchases with the company.
This is not right ! Don't spend your money on these company's. They don't value their customers. read more
