Gone bust?

Have ordered thousands of pounds worth of lights from this company in the past and haven't a bad thing to say about them. Then ordered a small number of lights for an emergency job on 12th September and have not yet received them, no communication whatsoever from the company despite several support requests (they don't answer the phone due to "large volume of calls at this busy time"). I think that sadly they have gone bust and are in the process of re-emerging as Downlight Led . co .uk.

Hopefully we will get the £150+ back but I'm not hopeful....

No delivery and no communication

We ordered lights on 14th September and expected delivery within 3-5working days. We had an email on 19th September to say the order was on its way but we are yet to receive our order (it’s now 27th September).
The DPD tracking has said the same thing all along: “We've received your order details, but have not yet received your parcel”
We will unfortunately be contacting our bank to cancel the order and reclaim the hundreds of pounds we’ve spent with lighthub.

Update 1: the contact number linked to this transaction on my bank statement is for another lighting company who have never heard of Lighthub!!

Update 2: still no communication from the company, but we received 4 of the 6 items on 2nd October.

Three Weeks Waiting, Still No Lights – Avoid This Company

I ordered lights from LightHub Direct over two weeks ago, fully expecting their advertised lead time of 3–5 days. Three weeks later, I am still waiting for my delivery.
What makes the experience worse is the complete lack of communication. The only response I’ve received is an automated email promising someone would get back to me – but no one ever has. This feels deliberately misleading to customers, as the website clearly promotes fast delivery while failing to fulfil it.
Buying from LightHub Direct has been nothing but frustrating and disappointing. I would strongly advise others to look elsewhere if you want reliable service and honest communication.

Avoid this company at all costs!

Avoid this company at all costs!

Ordered emergency lights on the 15th September. Still not been delivered. Phone line doesn’t work as they are dealing with a high volume of traffic apparently which is no wonder if this is their customer service. Received an email on Monday apologising for the delay confirm the issue was with DPD have sent 4 further emails to find out a delivery date and can’t get a reply. An utter joke of a company I am now out of pocket £217 and will have to chase up my money via the bank.

I had placed an order on 9 th September.
On 15 th I checked what happened to my order .

I received below :

“Hello Bee,

Thank you for getting in touch. Order 58181 was placed after 3pm on Tuesday, 9th. Please note that orders placed after 3pm on a weekday, or at any time during the weekend, are processed on the next working day. In this case, your order was processed on Wednesday, 10th.

At checkout, the 3-5 business day delivery option was selected, which places your estimated delivery window between Monday, 15th and Wednesday, 16th. As soon as your parcel is handed over to our next business day courier, you will receive a shipping confirmation email containing tracking details.

Best Regards,

Louise B”

Today is 19 th September.
They don’t work at the weekends
I had not received any further responses. I had emailed them twice !

My carpenter is on standby as we need the led light we had ordered!

DHL still had not received the package.

Very bad experience for first time buyer!

Slow customer service (DPD cannot be to blame for everything. Your automated message makes no sense as it says 4-6 hours, so you don't reply faster than 4 or after 6?)

Subject: We’ve Received Your Support Request - Urgent: Delivery required

on 17/09/2025 ^

And your automated message says...

"One of our team members will review your enquiry shortly. Our usual response time is 4-6 business hours"

Either change your automated message or reply?

I'm not changing this 1* review until I get an answer to my question

Good Afternoon,

We have searched for ‘RFQ’ in our communication system and believe we have located your correspondence. As your enquiry originated from overseas and the attachment was an xlsx file with unverified content, our spam filter understandably flagged the emails as potentially harmful.

I sincerely apologise for any misunderstanding this has caused. To ensure there are no further issues, I have now added you to our safe list so that your future emails will be received without disruption.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and please rest assured that your messages will now reach us promptly.

Best Regards,

they say delivery takes 3-5 days, that's a joke!

Hello. I bought the goods on September 7th, today is September 15th. No delivery. The phone number 03301331311 doesn't work, and there are no email responses. As a new customer, I'm disappointed with this situation... they say delivery takes 3-5 days, that's a joke! I don't recommend it. The matter has been reported to PayPal.

Hello Bogusław,

Thank you for your feedback. As mentioned in our phone message, we temporarily switched to email support for a few days while we caught up after a particularly difficult week with DPD.

Your email, sent at 09:38, was received and I personally replied at 16:32 the same day. Please do check your inbox again, including any spam or junk folders, as my response was sent some time ago.

We always strive to reply as quickly as possible, even during challenging periods, and we regret that you felt let down on this occasion.

As mentioned above, please do check your email inbox as we have responded some time ago.

Best Regards,

Louise B

Hello Emma,

As mentioned in our correspondence yesterday, the shipping service selected at checkout is 3–5 business days, not calendar days. Your order was dispatched on time and is scheduled for delivery today between 16:32 and 17:32 with DPD.

I note from your email that you arranged for an electrician to install the lights this morning. We do recommend that tradespeople are only booked once goods have been received and checked over for any damage in transit.

I will continue our conversation by email to confirm how you would like to proceed.

All the best,

Louise B

I cant return my order

I cant return my order



I ordered two Round Bulkhead Light Fittings but later realized I no longer needed them. I submitted a return request over a week ago, but it has yet to be reviewed. I haven’t received any communication from Lighthub regarding the status of my return.

I’ve tried calling several times with no response and also sent an email, but no one has gotten back to me. While purchasing from Lighthub was straightforward and easy, trying to return an item has been unnecessarily difficult and frustrating.

Good Morning Afizz,

I am very sorry to hear that your return request was initially missed. It had been an unusually hectic week, following an incident with DPD that stretched our resources. I am pleased to see that your return request was processed yesterday and your email has also been replied to, as we are now getting back to normal. Please feel free to continue our email conversation if you require any further assistance at all.

All the best,

Louise B

Excellent customer service from Louise.

Took a few days for a response, but after speaking with an advisor I now understand this stemmed from circumstances beyond their control. Spoke to Louise who has since been extremely helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate my order. Pleased I did manage to speak with Louise who very much reinstalled my faith in the company after the initial disappointment.
