“I received a gift for my baby and the dress was the wrong size for the season that we are in. They would not allow me to return the item for store credit; I could only return the item if I told the original “account holder” to do it for me. The point of a gift receipt is to anonymously return a gift so as to not hurt the gift giver’s feelings?? Terrible customer service with terrible return policy. Now I have a baby dress that will sit unused. I will say, I had 2 items from this company delivered for another baby of mine a few years ago, and they were some of my favorite pieces of all time. Just a shame that I can’t exchange this cute dress (which is linen, summery) for something equally adorable that we will actually be able to use this winter or in the right size for next summer.”

“Can’t get into their website. Keeps sending me through a loop to receive emails. So frustrating. Gave up and shopped elsewhere”

“I ordered Christmas tree lights, in the sale. When they arrived the box was open, the lights look like they had been used, and the plug was missing so I couldn't even test them. It is an insult, this is how they think of us as customer's.”

“A family member gifted me something from the White Company. It arrived in a huge box, with another big box inside of that one, plus a smaller gift box inside that! And a load of bubble wrap & tissue paper too. Totally unnecessary for the gorgeous beanie & wrist warmer set she sent me. Since when does wool need bubble wrap?! White Company sort your excess packaging out. Photos included so you can see the ridiculousness of it! I love the gift though.”

“I ordered a dressing gown for my husband’s Christmas. I did not receive it and called customer services twice, they were most unhelpful! Eventually I received a refund and £20 gift voucher. A couple of days later, the dressing gown was advertised at full price, when I was told they had problems with their warehouse. They are just incompetent, don’t order anything from them!!”

“I visited your Ringwood store on Monday upon entering your store, you are met with a clean tidy and lovely warm smell., to then be greeted by a very cheerful member of your staff who gave me some amazing present ideas , also ideas for myself I must say, you have a wonderful selection !!! Being of someone of the older generation, nothing was too much trouble for her. She made me feel very special so I would like this opportunity to say thank you to your staff member Rhianna I will certainly be recommending Ringwood branch to my friends and family after the wonderful service that I received from Rhianna”

“Received a wedding gift, which was an oven shaped heart dish for the oven. The product cracked in the oven immediately and white company refuse to exchange it without our receipt. We don’t have this as it’s a gift. It’s clearly white company, new season and is faulty. Terrible customer service”

“I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing my goods. I have never known such appalling service before when ordering online. I could go on and on, but I would only be saying the same as all the other people have experienced with their orders. Trading Standards need to know what is going on here.”

“Canceled part of my order then never refunded me. Said that I received the items I never received and refunded me for the items I actually did receive. After saying it was an IT issue, it's my word against theirs on what their system says was delivered. Conveniently for them it was a cheaper refund than what I was actually owed. DO not trust them with refunds.”

“After the first order was cancelled and a delay with refund, the second order was faulty. A replacement order can only be requested when they receive even though photos sent showing fault and they agreed it is a fault. No refund either. Another disappointing experience. I would definitely avoid shopping online The White Company is not what it used to be”

“Same as all the other comments- Product did not arrive- checked on tracking and it said processing, Day 9 still no delivery and tracking says order placed but now its not processing. Customer service says it will now be delivered or cancelled!! This story looks like its repeating itself over and over. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!!”

“ZERO stars...this has been THE WORST online shopping experience I have ever had. Purchased a cashmere throw and 2 pairs of cashmere socks for a friend's 60th birthday present. I was informed after purchasing that they can not fulfil the company's promise of luxury gift wrapping. The present has been sent in 2 random packages (using Amazon delivery) with no gift receipt, no card and no wrapping. My friend hasn't even got the throw yet just a random parcel with socks. TERRIBLE customer service. I regret choosing The White Company it was a waste of time and money.”

“Items out of stock are showing as available on website allowing you to place order but in reality the items are not available but on order with supplier. Payment is taken and order shows as processing. Website has been updated to state they aim to deliver within 7-10 days but on day 6 and no option for next day delivery it is highly unlikely that the delivery will be within the timeframe. It is very disappointing that there are still so many problems placing an online order and store stock is limited”

“Standard response from The White Company: I am sorry that you haven’t received an update about your order. Upon reviewing the order, I can see that your order is now with our distribution team, and we expect it to be delivered within 7-10 days. However, since we’ve moved to a new warehouse, there might be some delays. If your order doesn’t arrive within the promised timeframe, it will be placed in a queue for dispatch, and we’ll do our best to get it to you within an additional 72 hours. If it’s not dispatched by the end of that period, we will cancel the order and issue a refund.”
