I've given JL 4 stars, for their shopping experience & excellent service. However, giving their 'Place to Eat' to a third party to run & cater is an extremely big mistake. We've sampled the range at o... See more

Bra fitting service

Staff are friendly and professional towards you. The bra's I thought I needed, I was wrong with my decision. The assistant made the perfectly right decision. I'm so happy. The bra's are very comfortable.
Thank you so much x

Poor customer service

Poor customer service, drinking glasses ordered 16 June for click and collect from local Waitrose. When unpacked 2 were chipped. Have emailed JL several times still waiting to hear from them, now 19 July and still nothing. Not what JL promise and despite being a loyal customer for more years than I care to admit, would probably think twice before buying from them again.

Following JL’s response to my review I have been in touch with customer services and am hoping for a speedy resolution.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

I am incredibly sorry to hear that two of your drinking glasses arrived chipped and that you have been waiting so long for a response; this is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide.

I would like to let you know that we did send an email on 23rd June asking if you would prefer a replacement sent to your home address or to a collection point. Please could you double-check your inbox, including your spam or junk folder, for this email?

Once you locate this, please reply directly to that email with your preference, so our team can process this and get this resolved for you as quickly as possible. ^Steph

John Lewis is not the wonderful store…

John Lewis is not the wonderful store with great customer service that it used to be . Like everyone else it has outsourced its customer service to foreign call centres and there are two main problems with this . 1) language barrier 2) lack of empathy. I had a mattress for two days protected by a new waterproof protector and they refused to exchange it because I hadn’t bought one of their protectors. This was absolutely not explained to me at the store in Bluewater when I purchased the mattress. They have not only lost my custom but all my friends and family and people I meet will now know that John Lewis is broken . I’ve had much better customer service from a budget bed store

Edit update : I telephoned the number you gave me Steph and spoke to a guy who (after lecturing me about reading small print) has reinstated my right to have a 60 day comfort trial so I will adjust my score accordingly.

Hi Jimmy,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am incredibly sorry to hear about your experience following your recent mattress purchase at our Bluewater branch; this is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.

It is very disappointing to learn that our mattress exchange policy was not clearly explained to you in store, and I completely understand your frustration regarding the advice you subsequently received from our customer service team. We pride ourselves on offering clear information and empathetic support, and it is clear we have fallen short on this occasion.

To discuss this further, please reach out directly to our furniture team on 03456002389. They will be happy to review this. ^Steph

John Lewis - my go to first choice

John Lewis are consistently reliable as a retailer for quality, style and customer service. They continue to be my go to, first choice when I’m shopping for clothes, home ware and gifts. It’s great they have brought back the ‘never knowingly under sold’ promise. Delivery is usually prompt and returns are sorted in a timely manor with no fuss.

Excellent online shopping experience…

Excellent online shopping experience from start to finish. The website was easy to use, ordering was straightforward, and my item arrived quickly and well packaged. Great quality product and excellent service as always. I wouldn’t hesitate to shop with John Lewis online again.

I had a great experience with customer service

I had a great experience with a replacement order. The original order was'lost' by the courier company, DHL, that was supposed to deliver the item. They told me to refer back to John Lewis. JL customer service was excellent and I was able to get my item expeditiously, through a different courier.
