Charged me twice for one transaction ( Cheltenham branch) then said I had to go to store for a refund ( half an hour away) then said they would refund, but didn't. Contacted them again ( as they just didn't refund or contact me ) and said i would have to go into store or accept a gift card. I have had to say i will accept a gift card as I cannot get to the store. On the basis of what has not been done over the past 12 days, I do wonder if they will even honour this - They took my money unlawfully and are saying i have to drive across town to get it back - outrageous !

If I could give them a minus I would, they gave us a delivery date and time for a rug delivery, so we took the day off to move furniture etc, then we got notified on the day of delivery its not even left the manufacturer, so I spoke to Dunelm Customer Services, what a joke. They spouted process this, and process that, and we have to wait 72 hours for a reply. Then I asked to speak to a Manager, so the line goes quiet, the girl comes back on and say, Ive spoken to him and theres nothing we can do.... Do yourselves a favour and go to John Lewis, the customer service is so much better, Dunelm are no better than a back street market stall. SO DUNELM CONTACT US FOLLOWING MY REVIEW AND AFTER THE USUAL APOLOGIES MIRACULOUSLY FOUND MY RUG AND ARRANGE A DELIVERY FOR TODAY. THIS MORNING WE GET A CONFIRMATION EMAIL, ALL SOUNDS VERY PROMISING, RIGHT? PROBLEM IS ITS BEING DELIVERED TO AN ADDRESS SOME 224 MILES AWAY, I DID CHECK ON GOOGLE STREET VIEW, IT'S A VERY NICE LOOKING BUNGALOW IN WALES, SO THEY EVEN MANAGED TO DELIVER IT TO THE WRONG COUNTRY. UTTERLY USELESS JUST HAD A CALL FROM THE DRIVER DELIVERING OUR RUG TO A BUNGALOW IN WALES, NO ONE HAS TOLD HIM, ITS LIKE A CARRY ON FILM! IS IT POSSIBLE FOR DUNELM TO BALLS THIS UP ANYMORE? GUESS WHAT, I WAS WRONG, DUNELM CAN BALLS IT UP EVEN MORE, THE RUG WAS SUPPOSE TO BE DELIVERED TO SOUTHAMPTON INSTEAD ITS NOW IN YORKSHIRE! THE STORES MAY BE GREAT BUT THE ON LINE DELIVERY SERVICE IS NO BETTER THAN POSTMAN PAT AND HIS BLACK AND WHITE CAT, PATHETIC SERVICE UPDATE, THE RUG WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DELIVERED MONDAY AND WASNT, WE HAVE BEEN PROMISED DELIVERY TOMORROW, FRIDAY, THIS RUG HAS BEEN ALL OVER GREAT BRITAIN AND IS NOW BEST PART OF TWO WEEKS LATE, WITH BROKEN PROMISES AND LIES. I AM NOT HOLDING MY BREATH.

Awful. Second time I’ve had problems with a Dunelm order. First order was badly damaged and half was missing so delivery refused. Second time I’ve gone for home delivery, and it was cancelled that day. Redelivery today and it is going 224 miles away to another address. Would be easier to run a marathon than to get this sorted

I ordered a clock on line due to my local stores not having any in stock. Never again!!! This has been going on for nearly two weeks now. Finally Clock was delivered and signed for but went to wrong address. Yet right adresss in order form. So still no clock. After a long few days of endless texts saying it was going to be delivered and then Re scheduled and making sure I was home, only to find yet again no clock. Finally my clock arrived damaged. Hence I’m now waiting for a replaced. Unbelievable courier service by Hermes. Dunelm and Hermes need to get their act together. Don’t have home delivery through Dunelm. You’d be better traveling a hundred miles than waiting in for your item. One unsatisfied customer

I’m livid, I ordered bedroom furniture 5 weeks ago, 1st delivery cancelled on the morning, as wardrobe was damaged at warehouse, which I only found out by chasing up myself as no one bothered to contact me. They would not deliver other items until I really kicked up (2weeks later). Wardrobe was rescheduled (a further week later), item arrived damaged, another week to have it picked up and a new one delivered, so waited in again, to receive a message that it’s not arriving that day. All I get told is ‘I’ll have to wait’! 5 weeks and no wardrobe still. I think they think I have nothing better to do than cancel work just to wait in case my furniture decides to turn up one day! Fuming!

Terrible, not interested in customers once items have been bought. I emailed Dunelm regarding a damaged mug and as yet they have never contacted me. Even tried to call the Paisley store and you cannot get through to their store. I will never shop at this store again, very poor customer service and once they get your money they don't care.

one simple order of 3 items. Good start as first item arrived early but on inspection part of wardrobe top was warped. Thereafter second item failed to show on the nominated date (for which a delivery charge of £9.95 was levied) (and still hasn't arrived nor any update received 6 days later. After 10 minutes on hold on the phone Dunelm couldn't explain it either. As for the 3rd item (a single wooden bed) half of it (in 2 boxes) arrived yesterday but without the 2 sides (not yet arrived) the bed is all but useless

Awful online experience and very bad customer service. Do not use!! Place an order online which came in 2 packages. Took a week for first package to arrive which contained a mirror. This was too large so had to return but no invoice in package so had to return to store. Unable to get smaller size mirror instore and no refund as paid via paypal. Left with credit note i cannot use online. Second package arrived later with two invoices. Complained via email to customer service who have been very unhelpful and offered no apology or resolution and has been ongoing over a week. Very bad service and will not make future purchased. I do not recommend the company.

Do not use the Beckton store. I placed an order over the internet, received a confirmation email, went to collect the order and only 4 out of the 9 items I had ordered were actually there. I was all but accused of lying when I said that I hadn't had a phone call to tell me that my order was incomplete. Customer service was non-existent, staff were unhelpful. I have had a wasted journey, had a significant amount of time wasted and received no apology from the store manager. There was also no attempt to remedy the situation by (for instance) offering to get the missing items delivered instead. I didn't bother purchasing the 4 out of 9 items they had picked for my order (or the significant amount of other items I had picked up whilst walking around the store) and left the store empty handed. I will NEVER return to the Beckton store.

Placed order for curtains in Broadstairs store - paid by debit card. Told receipt and invoice would be sent by email and would receive phone call in 2/3 working days advising delivery details. 6 working days later and almost an hour of phone calls - no email and no delivery info. Consequently, having lost faith, rang again and cancelled the order and insisted on immediate refund which surprisingly arrived within 48 hours. Just wish I had looked at reviews first. Consequently I would advise never to order from this inefficient business.
