DREADFUL! I bought a fridge freezer online. I accepted there would be a delivery lag as we are not on the companies main routes. A couple of days after placing the order, I was contacted to advice delivery would be by DX and it would be fully 14 days after order for delivery!!! I wrote and complained to Chairman and MD - email was chanelled to a logistics rep for resolution - with no indication the senior people bother to read complaints. His attitude I found to be complacent and arrogant. In essence: I should have read all the small print. Take it or leave it. Waiting 16 days for a 3rd party is perfectly acceptable. There was a distinct reluctance to try to improve the delivery time - which was not made clear enough at time of order. To be without a fridge that long is not good. Eventually the item was delivered - very professionally by DX - after 14 days. MEANTIME, I bought online a heat pump tumble dryer from ao.com - placed the order at 6.30pm, item delivered the following day at 10.00am! Great value and service that impressed at every stage. Great price, great coms, a prompt and tracked delivery servicxe and charming men...what a contrast! I received an email from the John Lewis logistics rep asking if all was OK. - the same day I had taken delivery from ao.com. I replied at length saying I was still unhappy both with the service, his attitude, and that attitude and arrogance, and way my complaint had been handled. I contrasted the JL experience with ao.com. I also asked for my email to be sent to the directors who I had sentr my initial complaint to so they could see how their service compared with ao.com ASTONISHINGLY I received a curt, arrogant complacent reply from said rep - NO he would not send his seniors my email - indeed any further email I sent would not reach them and would be directed his way. he was trusted! I would say it appears JL seniors do not want to be bothered with unhappy customers who want to give legitimate feedback. The icing on the cake - the rep defended JL and their 16 day lead time as saying essentially ao.com were not the same - not as wide a range etc....WAKE UP! So I shall be posting my John Lewis experiences widely until someone decides customers are worth listening to..... Meantime - a little less arrogance and a lot more humility would not go amiss. Happy to be contacted by someone who actually cares in JL.

i brought a £950 laptop off of them, in a year and a half it has gone wrong 3 times and had to be taken into repair. the first couple of times apple fixed it no problem, the 3rd time apple sent me to john lewis to get it repaired under guarantee as the part needed would cost around £400. when it went into john lewis, they rang me up 2 weeks later saying £400 must be paid as it was liquid damage, however this had never been mentioned by apple. the customer service was nothing but horrendous with constantly rude staff. after ringing up and emailing we decided to get the unrepaired laptop back to the store as john lewis were very unhelpful and so we decided to go elsewhere. when we got the laptop home, we tried to turn it on on the off chance it would work, and so it did, perfectly. therefore john lewis tried to get me, an 18 year old to pay £400 for basically no reason, i am so glad i didn't pay it and will never be going back to john lewis again!!

I was able to find and purchase 3 designer items in the sale at less than half their original price. Very pleased.

In A Nutshell - John Lewis Plc/ Ltd - Do Not Purchase Electrical Items For The Following Reasons:- (01) Poor Customer Service. (02) The 5 Year Guarantee Is Worthless. (03) Faulty New Equipment Packed In New Boxes. (04) Faulty Equipment Is Blamed On Customers. (05) They Advise To Collect Through House Insurance. I Took Them To Court And Won.

I ordered a washer dryer and paid extra for it to be installed. After being told it would take 4 days to arrive, the machine actually took 3 weeks. When it was delivered and installed the installation team damaged my fitted doors and the carcass and I was told to fill the door myself before they could come back and attach the door hinges. The machine wasn't as described as it didn't have the correct spin speed on the majority of cycles and also didn't spin sufficiently and left clothes wet with a couple of inches of water in the drum. John Lewis weren't helpful in sorting all these problems out until I emailed the CEO. I then had a chap called within the hour. I'm still awaiting a new machine and the repair of my doors, and I was informed that they would be expensive to repair.... Well, if they hadn't been damaged by their men they wouldn't have the added expense. I'm hoping that the new machine I've ordered works better, and is installed better, the doors will be repaired and it is all sorted out before I die. I'm terminally ill and used John because of their reputation because I needed a stress free installation! I wouldn't recommend them. They offered me £100 off a new model, but I discovered that they were offering this to all customers. This wasn't a gesture to say sorry for all the hassle, stress and damage. Useless.
