LightUpReviews 746

I received my lights but ordered the wrong color. Outside of that I received an unusual email from someone telling me I couldn't purchase the aforementioned items because they were not able to be bought unless it was a wholesale purchase. She also had my order information wrong and when I replied to her email about this shortly after I received an email saying that the items eventually shipped. It was fine after that.

I ordered 50 Bulbs and was charged via PayPal. After not hearing anything for 2 weeks I inquired by email as to the status of my order. I received a reply indicating that the bulbs were "discontinued" and they only had 15 bulbs and did I wish them. I responded and asked how long would it would take to ship... they never replied.
Finally I called and was subjected to recorded ads while waiting for 15 minutes to demand a refund. BTW the bulbs I was told that were "discontinued" are 65w BR30 LED which are available everywhere. My experience withLightup.com was not illuminating!

Wish I would have seen reviews before I ordered. I ordered two 2x4' LED lights for my art studio. 12 days after ordering I hadn't received shipping confirmation. I emailed, 3 days later not response. I called, 22 minute hold time. Finally received the lights 17 days after orderering and they weren't as described. On website it says these lights are for 'flushmount', nowhere in the description does it say you have to pay $25 for an additional part to mount them. I cant return without paying return shipping... even though these aren't as described. Pissed! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!

Ordered tubes and fixtures on July 30th, full credit card charge on Aug 1st, partial delivery after a week. Called and received another partial shipment soon after. Called again. Main part of order back ordered to mid October. Canceled remaining order. Hope credit card is actually refunded. Staff was pleasant but it is clear that Lightup has no stock and fills orders as stuff dribbles in to their warehouse. Should have checked on line reviews first. Shop elsewhere

Last week, I ordered a large supply of light fixtures from LightUp, with more than ample time to have shipped and received for a project being done next weekend. Even their website noted delivery between Wednesday and Thursday of this week. FOUR days after I ordered, I received an email from them at 8:36pm noting they needed to speak with me to proceed with my order. Of course, they closed at 8pm, so I responded with an email to confirm the issue. Outside of a canned response, I ultimately had to call in. I called at 9am and waited on hold for nearly 30 minutes before I spoke with a girl who explained that they just wanted to confirm the address and order quantity before proceeding. I asked if their delay would prevent my order from delivering. She said no, and said she proceeded to push the order through. Relieved, I went about my day. At 1pm, another woman called and said that she was following up, because they hadn't heard from me. Perplexed, I explained that I had spoken to someone earlier in the day, and the order was put through. She said it hadn't been, and that she was ALSO calling to confirm my order... Wait, what?... once again, I asked about delivery this week, as LightUp clearly has dropped the ball. She said she would look into it and call me "right back"... which clearly meant 3 hours later. When she called me, she said my order wouldn't be guaranteed to be delivered this week, because... and this really angered me... processing takes another 3-4 days. What!? This is an absolute load of garbage company. They don't follow their own policies, it's owned by a larger conglomerate who has some of the worst custom service in the world. They dropepd the ball, lied and refused to honor their own word. Whiles it's great that many customers found service and speed exceptional, I can honestly say, there's no chance I'd ever use this company again for ANY future project. Absolutely disappointed with their lack of respect, honesty, or caring for their customers.

Poor excuse for a business

Ordered 8 flat panel lights. Two were damaged in shipment due to a terribly crummy thin weak cardboard box - shipping damage was going to happen. One light just flashed on and off. Took 3 weeks and MANY phone calls to get replacements promised - meanwhile, the project just stopped. Then they said the product was discontinued. So I went on their website to look for substitutes and found they are still selling them. So, I ordered again. Two of those have cracked panels and one was used as evidenced by open knockouts and short wires in the junction box. Only time will tell if the product is any good. If you order plan on receiving battered goods that dont work - that way you wont be disappointed. Consider the warranty worthless, which is what the company is.
