“Very good customer service.”

I ordered shoes from them for like 150 euro. The ones that arrived were the same brand and size but different model. When I wrote about the issue they responded very quickly and I received a full refund in the next couple of days. They asked me to send the shoes back to UK and they will return the money for the shipping when I send them the bill, but when I went to the local post office they wanted around 150 euros for the return so I wrote them back and told them to send me a return label because otherwise the return will cost as much as the shoes and I really didn't want to spend that much money even though I will be refunded after time, anyways, they told me to keep the shoes. My boyfriend doesn't like them (I bought them for him) and I don't know what to do with them but I was really surprised by the customer service after reading the reviews here and that is why I wanted to share my experience with the company.

I recently ordered a pair of loafers from NextDirect. The sizing of the shoes are wrong, and is at least two sizes smaller than the size 11 that I ordered. Overall, the quality is substandard, with bad finishes and cheap materials. The stitching is all skew, and the leather finish is uneven. All i all a cheap and tacky product. I will stay clear of them in future. Pure waste of time and money.

I had an order from nextdirect.com in december and recieved a message about custom fees which inform me about they will send me a payment link for the custom expenses. But they devided my order and send me only one payment link and made the payment. I have recieved the first part but even though I wrote them several times, they didn't send me any link for the second part of my shipment. So second part of my order has returned them back and they made my payment back. After that I wanted to order same products but the prices were doubled. When I contact with the customer service, they told me that there is a software problem and it will be solved in few days. I have just waited but the prices only get higher. I contacted them again and they offer me 15% discount after they increased almost 120%. I bought them for my nephew and they were gifts. I feel cheap to my nephew because we cant buy those brand in Turkey. It was not my fault and customer service just wasted my time. I dont suggest you to shop on that website because they dont have the responsiblity of their mistakes and that made you feel stupid.

Do not purchase anything from this store. Big scam. Wish I had read the reviews prior to purchase. Package "lost" by courier, but if I repurchase it they will give 15% discount. Seriously?! Surely you offer a full refund or get the parcel redelivered asap at their cost. What a scam!

The quality of the items is good. Unfortunately, the quality of the customer service is not. One item from my order was cancelled by Next without any notification. The rest of the order has arrived 2 weeks later after the initial delivery date. There is no refund for the missing item, the customer support team is acting like there is no problem since the package has been delivered. I've tried communicating with them both via chat and complaints, no luck so far. Never buying from them again.

Tip for consumers:
Do not use it, it is unreliable

I WAS a really happy customer and bought a lot here.
Couple of weeks ago I ordered many dresses for a wedding.
Kept 1, returned the others...
And what happens then? I get from Klarna the whole bill for ALL the items!
Called en e-mailed a lot with the customer service from Next, but they say they don't have it and don't understand it.
I have to wait for days when I get an answer to my complaints, en when I get an answer back, they don't come with a solution. No, they say that the package is still at a parcel point...

Looks like a joke but I don't think this is funny. I have to pay €244,- for only 1 dress (88,-) I kept!

When you call the customer service, they say you have to e-mail.
When you e-mail, they don't understand you and you get robot-answers back.

Really sad because I used to loved this webshop but how the fix this problem, or what do I say; they don't fix It! It's terrible!

1 star!

Tip for consumers:
No returns! You don't get your money back

I am disappointed from their services, they are really not professional at all, I jave a pending case with them since October to refund me an amount of $64. Still nothing credited back to my account, whenever I send them email, I only receive promises and apologies, not actual actions, it is almost 8 weeks now

Ordered a cushion in oct 2020 due for delivery on 16th November.
Never arrived received not a single word from next.
Found it all most impossible to contact them.
Eventually got answer on phone awaiting refund.
Send email to their customers complain dept no reply
To add insults their website is still promising delivery of same item in a week
What super customer service eh

I ordered a pair of shoes and ten days later still didn't get a confirmation email. When I contacted them, they gave me an inactive tracking number, and a few days after that sent me an email saying that they 'got my return'. The email also states that the money was refunded but IT WASN'T.

They are liars and thieves. NEVER AGAIN

KEEP AWAY

I tried to make a payment and was said online it did not proceed. The next day I placed another order hoping that I can get it paid and sorted. Just an hour after I placed the second successful order I was notified that the money for the first order has also been deducted from my account.

After all of this, I received an email from SkyNet to say I owe them R1365 for customs clearance for the first order that I did not actually placed. Which is more than the actual clothing?! What will the customs be for the second order? Oh my god, this is getting too much!

Right, then I got to chat with two customer service people stating that I want a refund ASAP. No one can help me with this! No one can cancel the order and no one can understand why I haven't received a tracking number yet for the parcel that is now registered with SkyNet.

Please can someone just refund me and I will be very grateful!

And never buy online from you again!

Tip for consumers:
Always make sure you don't have to pay custom fees! This is not included!

Very quick to take payment but goods not delivered on time, no feedback or communication on emails, live chat. Have spent ages on hold on call Centre. Still no luck and no feedback.

I recently ordered 8 items of clothing from Next Direct site and was shocked by the poor quality of the clothing. I am a regular customer of Next and have always found quality and service excellent. I was so disappointed and shocked this time as the quality was unbelievably poor more like Boohoo than Next. The fabric of the knitted items in particular was flimsy almost see through. Two of the items I ordered were over 50 euro were of acceptable quality but the cheaper items were unacceptable. DO NOT PURCHASE THE CHEAPER ITEMS JUST TAKE A TRIP TO PENNEYS INSTEAD. Will return all on my next trip to Next store.
