I purchased a TV at a reasonable price only to find they have taken the payment from my account twice, leaving me overdrawn. I contact them and they blame my bank. My bank (correctly) say ABSOLUTE RUBBISH! I contact them again and they admit it was them (they lied to me then) and they're sorry but thanks for letting them know! Having none of this i argue the point (for an HOUR) & they offer £10 and 15% off clothing? I buy a TV and they offer cheaper clothes, what? So come back and spend more money with us after giving you utterly dreadful service. JD Williams, you are officially one of the worst. AVOID

Beyond disgusted. Informed of stolen card being used by customer. Continued to accept stolen and stopped card payments after being informed that the matter was in hands of police and fraud teams. VILE Fraudsters!

Fraudsters
February 24, 2023

Terrible experience, they don't even know where my parcel is. It's lost somewhere and then they take years to even get this sorted. Why does it take so long? Terrible service.

They have been saying it's been alerted to the upper team for ages now. Like when will you guys actually solve this issue?

Poor communication from the team, no support is available, and delivery times are abysmal.

If you call them, they will tell you someone will get back to you the next day - but then you won't get a single response.

My order number is *******

AVOID at all costs
January 5, 2023

AVOID this company at all costs. They allow fraudsters to open accounts in your name but with a strange address, without doing the proper ID and address checks. And then wrongfully add info to your credit file affecting your credit score! They then refuse to accept responsibility for their actions, refuse to admit they were at fault and refuse to uphold the complaint lodged with them. My credit score has been seriously affected because of their incompetence and shady business running. There are hundreds of similar complaints across the Web and on social media.
This company needs to be investigated for their misconduct and lack of due diligence!

I ordered 3 sets of mirrowed drawers. One was okay. The 2 large ones were damaged.The original order was in September as a present for my son.From that time I have had numerous replacements all damaged. Each time my son had to wait in for collection of the damaged units. Then their system means apart from arranging a new order as they will not simply send out a replacement you have to reorder. Each time they attempted to charge me a higher price and each time I had to argue the point that they were replacements. Having reordered,my son stays at home all day awaiting delivery. Needles to say the replacements were damaged. I had to go through this ridiculous charade repeatedly receiving and returning broken units for months. Eventually I did manage to receive 3 good sets before Christmas. However my JD WILLIAMS account was so messed up I spoke for hours to innumerable representatives on the phone with a promise on 16th December they said that they would carefully analyse their incompetence and get back to me on my return from my Christmas holiday. However totally out of the blue while still away on holiday on December 22nd I received a text threatening to refer me to the Credit Reference Services if I didn't clear my account BY THE END OF THE DAY.I tried in vain to call and email them repeatedly without success. On returning home I get a statement- not only for a spurious amount but with added late payment plus further admin charges. Today on 31st December having had to wait for almost a hour on the phone to speak to someone I had a prolonged robust conversation with a really stroppy person. At 78 years old I gave up - I paid what they wanted just to get them out of life and to prevent them affecting my impeccable credit rating.I also asked them to close my account forthwith and never want to hear from again.If you do not want to experience the same treatment I strongly recommend you give JD WILLIAMS a wide birth.

Literally the worst customer service that could ever be provided! Ordered 7 blinds almost three weeks ago. These were dispatched but never delivered by their courier EVRI. Made several calls to the South African call centre and was given misinformation every time. Eventually spoken to one of their managers after them refusing to transfer me to somebody in the UK. He told me that I was better ordering the blinds again and assured me that the same thing would not happen. He then ordered the wrong amount of blinds. To my dismay after tracking the items, EVRI again returned it to JD Williams. In the meantime I have approximately £1500 debited to my account for these two sets of blinds that were never delivered and they have not yet refunded me for either. To anyone with a brain, these items obviously exceed the permissible weight and dimensions that EVRI handle, yet they continue to advertise these items and continue to send them out with this courier. I have tried unsuccessfully to contact the Manchester head office, and whilst I have had some replies, they have not responded to me in a timely way and not addressed the issue. They take several days to respond to any email. This company is impossible to deal with.

Rubbish
November 3, 2022

As usual what a rubbish company. They are willing to charge you next day delivery but you never received it because they will not stop using EVRI to deliver their orders. When you get in touch with them they refused to help in any way and have no way of contacting the courier, which again is useless. I ordered next day delivery and it was supposed to delivered yesterday at my work between 5.00pm and 6.00pm. We close at 5pm but I stuck around as I was told that it might be a bit late and that they could delivered up to 8pm. I stay at my office in an unsafe place until 8pm and no delivery. I had conformation today 03/11/2022 that it would be delivered between 11.30am and 12.30pm. Wouldn't you know it, it did not arrive. Now they are saying anytime between 5.30pm and 6.30pm. I then had a very circular conversation with the webchat which was utterly utterly useless, with absolutely no resolve. What is the point in charging premium delivery when you do not get a premium service!

Truly appalling service.
September 2, 2022

I ordered Apple Air Tags - despite the fact the courier claimed they were delivered, they were not. Even though there was an adult at home waiting to receive the parcel, the delivery company couldn't provide any proof of delivery - no signature, no photo of the parcel being left anywhere. JD Williams customer service was truly dreadful - didn't listen, or even respond to emails. I have never come across a company quite so obviously contemptuous of its customers, and quite so determined to lose them.

This company is just pitiful... sharks. There is no words to describe how utterly awful they are. Unhelpful does not cover it. This is going back years, about 6. Yes 6. I thought 8 but let's be generous! I returned a hoover, but moved shortly after. Didn't think anything of it as I had no outstanding credit with them. Fast forward to 2020 where I got a letter at my new address stating that a CCJ has been issued against my name. What? I wrote to them, called them, wrote to the Court but it would cost me the amount of the debt (I use that term lightly as I didnt have a debt with them. The item was returned) to get it to court to dispute it. Fine. Have your money that you are so desperate to have. So. Been paying it now. Then, they say they want to help because I wrote a bad review on Trustpilot. As I stated to them in my email. Which I doubt anything will come of and they won't do jack about it... fear not... I shall find every single platform I can and write continuous bad reviews as it sickens me you are allowed to get away with it. How can I have disputed it at the time when you sent NO PAPERS... no brainer!
AVOID. Just sharks... never ever do I touch anything that I don't have the cash to pay for nowadays.

Rip off company
May 29, 2022

BEWARE you will be charged interest and a non payment charge even if items are returned and there is no payment due! You are expected to make a minimum payment even though you have returned goods! Ridiculous - never come across this before. Would not recommend using and customer services waste of time.

Damaged Ornaments
February 10, 2022

On the 4th October 2021 J D Williams courier Hermes posted my parcel through my opened top window and pushing my shutters open and rested my parcel on top of the shutters. This caused damage to my ornaments on my window seal and stress to my dog. I have been in contact with J D Williams over 30 times regarding this issue and all they say is that a manager will be in touch within the next 48 hours. I'm still awaiting there call. They have said that Hermes are not reliable for the damaged they caused and they agreed with me that this is not the way to deliver a parcel.

DO NOT ORDER from this company, they are utterly poor. They don't secure delivery of your goods and then won't issue a refund. I don't want anything else to do with them, please don't engage with them either.

Shocking company AVOID
November 10, 2021

Absolute shocking company it all went wrong from day 1. My brand new iPhone 13 pro was delivered to the wrong address by parcelforce on the 23rd October as it stands November 10th I still don't have my iPhone 13 pro. Parcelforce openly admitted they have miss delivered it on the 25th October after sending them cctv footage. I have all this is written proof yet JD Williams don't want to know just keep fobbing me off. I will never use JD Williams again and I would advise you shop else where as this outfit don't know their arsehole from their elbow. They just like to fob you off and think the problem is going to go away.

Placed an order for a four seater garden table and chairs 10th May at the time it said delivery would be in 8 days it arrived the 9th June that evening my husband and I spent hours putting the chairs together as they came flat packed when we started to put the table together we noticed the fixings for the legs were in the wrong place we had 2 legs together at the top of the table one leg each side and nothing at the bottom rendering the table unable to stand. We were also 2 seat cushions missing. So next morning I contacted customer service and spoke to Wasim who said that he would send the replacement table and cushions out and they will be with me by the weekend. Brilliant I said. Then I started getting emails one saying they spare parts department have not got my missing parts but if I can sorce the parts they will refund me 20% of the cost I replied asking if they are saying I should buy a new leg for the table or just get some brick's to prop it up? The next email said that they can arrange a collection for the table and chairs then they will refund me my money then I can re order the table and chairs. Now is it me or is this just madness
Each email I have received is from a different person oh and to top it all no date can be given for collection they just turn up and if you are out then you have to phone in again for a new one

Poor service
May 16, 2021

After JD Willams, took my order wrong, took my money, I made 3 phones, wrote to them. They admitted their mistakes and the fact I still don't have my order, as they didn't dispatch it... they haven't given me my refund... I have to stamp my own claim form! A supervisor won't speak to me... terrible service. Don't use them.
