“Pleasantly surprised”

I had very low expectations based on the reviews I read on this site, but they had a dress that looked exactly like what I wanted and at less than $30 it seemed worth the risk. I'm so glad I went for it! I followed their size guide and the fit was perfect, it feels well made and the fabric is good quality. This is my first experience with them so maybe I just got lucky, but I'm very happy with it!

I order over 4 months ago and they sent me the wrong items. I emailed them straight away, they said they'd send through a free returns, I never got it and put a request in for a refund. After much back and forth and having to get my bank involved after 4 months I finally got my money back - not including shipping which I had to pay for their mistake items to be delivered to me. Thanks for nothing. The service was extremely poor.

I placed an order using a promo code which brought my total to $36. Once o entered my card info and pressed "pay" I received an error saying " please check shipping and try again" nothing was wrong with my addy but I entered it again then pressed pay and when I received the order confirmation it said $61. I reached out to customer service spoke to 3 different people bc each person kept sending me an automated msg and stopped responding. The last person said they can't cancel my order and once I receive my order after Valentine's Day (which defeats the whole purpose of my order) then I can return it and wait 15 days for a refund. Fraudulent and unprofessional bc that is not the amount I agreed to. If the promo code wasn't acceptable why didn't the site say that instead of saying something was wrong with my shipping. I will NEVER order from them again

Bought a bonded aviator jacket, 40 quid plus, wouldn't have paid 20 for it in a market. Flimsy, horrid fleece like lining, awful shape and the belt was just a strip of cloth.now a 21 day wait for a refund. To be avoided!

Tip for consumers:
Over 21 days for a refund is unacceptable!!

I made 2 different orders to them and they made a mistake on the shipping both times, and refuse to refund me for their mistake. I've been charged delivery fees for them "attempting" to deliver my orders. Their partner delivery service is trash. UPS, USPS, FedEx, etc., have no problem delivering to my address, but whoever they use does and I'm charged for it… No matter what combination of putting my address in, y'all get it wrong and don't want to correct the problem or refund me for it

Item in poor condition and different from the image
Requested a return and paid the costs for it
They make people believe that the return is made by Canada Post when the item is not sent by this post office but they tried
Since then I have not received my refund and refuse to pay me

Dress looked nothing like the picture. The fabric was beyond awful. When looking at a photo of their clothes you need to just imagine the cheapest, most poorly crafted version imaginable, because that's what you'll get.

I recently placed an order for nearly a dozen items for my wife, who typically wears a US size 2-4. Unfortunately, the store did not have anything smaller than a US 4 in Petite sizes. After confirming the sizes and item counts, I proceeded to pay for the order. However, upon receiving my receipts, I noticed that all but two dresses had the correct sizing, while the two in error reflected a US 8. Immediately, I contacted BH customer service and was directed to an Apple chat option, where I spoke with both Skye Rae and Jude. Despite explaining the situation, they offered no solution other than to return the items once received. I find it unreasonable to expect that coupons would update the order to fix such an error, especially since the items were the same but in different colors, indicating a potential system error. Both representatives were unresponsive to my request and only provided a UK sizing chart, which did not address the issue at hand. This experience has been incredibly frustrating, especially considering that I have been a loyal customer of ASOS for years and have never encountered such issues. I regret to say that I will not be shopping here again.

I ordered seven dresses, all of them were suppose to be the same size, they all came in different sizes, and three were defective. I emailed them right away, to return the items for a refund. They ignored emails, I kept emailing, then they asked for details, they kept asking for more things like rewrite the entire items codes, send picture etc. I jumped through hoops, and they didn't want a return. I involved Paypal, we waited weeks for a response. I had a trip, and told Paypal that if they respond while I'm out of town I won't be able to reply. Paypal said it was alright, if that happens the case would close but I can reopen. This happens, I'm then informed I can't reopen, but I can start a dispute using Visa. They then lied to Visa, claiming that I haven't returned the items which is why they couldn't refund, and that I missed their return time period. But they are the ones who took MONTHS to respond to Visa, weeks to respond to Paypal, and to my emails. They did this on purpose, and found a way to prevent having to give me their address, and a return shipping label. Out of 7 dresses only 4 are wearable and they are all the wrong sizes but listed at the same size.

I recently made an online purchase of the Presidential Box from Stately, and I couldn't be more disappointed with the entire experience. The clothes I received were of shockingly low quality and very random styles. It was almost like I received a pile a clothes that retailers couldn't sell and just threw away.

I never write bad reviews, so you know I'm pissed! This company sent the wrong size dress, and now they are trying to make me pay for the return!

Not to mention, their sizing chart is way off! So you're bound to have to send something back! And if you dont want to lose money, you'll likely give it away, bever wear it, or wear it too big! Bc who wants to pay $10 shipping, then another $6 to send it back!

Why is it hard to send me a free shipping label when YOU are in error! Had me send pics of proof for what exactly!?!? This company is trash. They dont treat customers fairly and it's clear because of that class action lawsuit. They are up to their same tricks.

Shipping use to be only $11CAD for full order no matter what, now it is $16.99. Big jump in price.
Plus they do not offer exchanges, and now pre-charge you $15CAD in order to gain return label.

Sizing is very off when it comes to foot wear. As an example, size 7 CAD is equal to size 4 UK however ordering through BooHoo when you order size 7 CAD on the website they give you size 5 UK therefore it is way too big and I have to return it for smaller size. This is where my earlier comment comes in. So I already paid $16.99 for shipping of my order, now I have to pay $15 for return label to ship the invoorect sizing shoes back. And if I want to reorder the shoes in smaller size I have to pay another $16.99 as they do not provide exchanges and it is their error that they are incorrectly sizing in their website.
So that means $48.98 in shipping alone to do this process.
That is extremely costly in my opinion

Buyer be careful!

Tip for consumers:
**Be careful with sizing** all clothing does not fit the same, so if you are size 6 in one item does not mean you will be a size 6 in another item
Sizing for shoes is way too big, I'm a size 7CAD, and received size 5UK which is 7.5-8CAD

Must **prepay** $15 to return items & receive shipping label. This is new, never had to prepay for shipping retuns their reasoning is they have gone paperless, but this way you have to use their preferred postal company & have no option on cost to ship it bac

I ordered two dresses from Boohoo and it's impossible to return them. There's no phone number to get help and the website won't accept the order numbers or email address or my phone number, which are all typed in correctly to start the return. The website says they don't have any information that corresponds with the information I provided, therefore the return can't be started. When I tried the robot chat it doesn't answer my questions or address the problem, it just keeps asking what it can help with and ignores my questions.

I've been robbed of my money with no way to return these dresses. The dresses were horrible btw. Huge in size and way too long - not at all like the photos.

I have always had great things to say about Boohoo have spent hundreds of dollars with them in the last few years. I must say I am very disappointed with my last 2 orders and shipping. I have paid extra for express shipping yet don't get for days over express time. They used to use DHL, and now FedEx. I am not sure I will be ordering anymore from Boohoo because of this.

1st (and last!) experience has been awful, simple enough reason to make return, the system is slow, full of problems, eventually managed to organise a return via evri with printing label ourselves, problem is the returnlable to print "has failed" ie it does not exist to print, now cannot get any so called help from Boohoo to recognise the problem or even understand the problem!
The order no. Is UK******* wish I had never heard of Boohoo.

Genuinely - avoid like the plague, do not believe the good reviews and take special note of the genuine 1* poor reviews.

I bought my boyfriend clothes for his birthday for €71.99, he loved them, but boohoo took an additional €73.99 out of my bank, it's been 5/6 weeks and I'm still trying to get my money back, I'm being moved around in circles to different people in customer service. Nobody is actually helping me. I keep getting told that my refund will be in my bank in 7 working days but after the seven days there's no sign of it... I'm F*@king Fuming with them

Took 2 weeks to receive my clothes which was a bit longer than expected, one of the jackets I purchased was beautiful but it shreads like crazy and kinda good material but still shreads everywhere, the other wool look coat I received was threading and not the best beautiful colour but meh! The swing dress I got was awesome quality and fits really well, Overall Im am happy with my purchases but I wouldnt spend that much money on defiantly always look for promos and sales! :)

Shocking service. My parcel has been lost for almost a moth after paying for express shipping. Lost also is my query for compensation. Navigating a labyrinth of obsequious time wasters designed to weaken my resolve is the only customer service I'm receiving as there appears no dedicated department to deal with items lost in transit. Using the pandemic as an excuse is absolutely shameful since this has been missing for much longer than this was a contributing factor. I will be a thorn in their side until I receive something in the way of compensation but I would generally advise anyone to STAY AWAY. Boo Hoo indeed. They are The Worst.

Every thing is pretty crap. The quality is bad and the shorts I've posted I literally got YESTERDAY. The sweatpants I got are already ripping a little at the seams and they're loose on me, I didn't get them too small. Won't be ordering again that's for sure. Would highly recommend avoiding this brand!
