Bought a bedframe from Debenhams and on delivery it turns out the bed is from vidaXL, a company we've previously had issues with lots of missing items. Luckily bedframe was complete but we wouldn't... See more

I would give 5 stars if it weren't for the lack of delivery options. It would be nice to be able to have the option to collect the parcel from a locker or post office. The driver had to try 3 times t... See more

Item was dispatched super quickly. Shame they use Evri as they're pretty terrible, they ended up delivering a day late and leaving the parcel outside my neighbour's house! However Debenhams were great... See more

Problem returning item

Hi,
We ordered three garden chairs. When they came the width of the packages indicated to us that they would not be suitable. We therefore requested return information to be sent to us and also asked for a refund.
We were informed by the Customer Service person called Holly (from Berkfield Home) that we had to take a photo of the item. This surprised us as we wanted to return all three packages unopened. Nevertheless we complied, opened a package, assembled the chair and sent the photo and asked for return information to be sent to us. We also asked for a full refund. Since then we have been offered 25% off then 50% off the opened package. We have said thank you for the offer but as the item is unsuitable that we dont want to purchase it cheaply and want a full refund. We have now sent five emails since 31st July requesting return information. There has been no response at all today. Under Distance Selling Regulations we should not have had to provide a reason, and certainly not have had to assemble a chair and then send a photograph.. our experience has then been having said no to two offers to buy the item at a cheaper price, we have been ignored today. We wonder if Berkfield Home are trying to prevaricate and take us beyond our time to return the goods. We would be grateful if Debenhams stepped in to help.all we want is to have the return information sent to us and then a full refund please. Thank you

I ordered 4 items in the sale

I ordered 4 items in the sale. 3 or 4 days later I received a very suspicious looking looking email just saying my order had been cancelled by the vendor. No explanation no email source. Took a few more days for my money to be refunded.Until that happened I was not sure what was going on. The items I had ordered were still available for sale on the website. I bought something else instead.

I liked the easy way to place the order, pay and quick response with delivery details.
What I didn't like was the fact it was a third party via marketplace who were responsible for sending my order. It didn't arrive by said date. Although I contacted you via messenger, I was assured it would be delivered albeit late. Was worried due to item needed for hols.

Shocking customer service.

Shocking customer service.

Ordered a bed frame and when I went to assemble it on of the parts was incorrect. I used the email text chat and was told that they would have to speak to their supplier and I was to wait 3 days before getting back to them. I waited 3 days and when I got back to them they advised me that the part i need isn’t in stock and that they would offer me a goodwill gesture of £20 to find and purchase the part myself despite me telling them I’d already tried this and it’s so unique that no shop has it at the size needed. It then transpired that they were trying to replace the part I told them I didn’t need with THE PART I DIDNT NEED!! When I explained again that the part is incorrect and I need a different part I was told that I have to wait another 3 days whilst they get back to their supplier.

The problem of the part is small and easily solved I can deal with having to wait for a correct part but what I can’t deal with is sub par customer service with no accountability when I’ve spent a lot of money. Won’t order anything from these again.
