Quality of blinds terrible, made very cheaply and couldnt put together after trying all day. Blinds not straight. Got fobbed off by customer service who drag their heels to try and resolve. Still without order and a refund. Not a happy customer and would not recommend.

They have made my blinds the wrong size , but refuse to admit it or correct the mistake they have made. I purchased ‘exact size’ blinds per the website instructions, which say I will receive a blind the exact size I have put down, but they have manufactured them to go in a recess and have made them 4cm smaller. Atrocious customer service.

If I could give zero stars I would. Waited almost 2 weeks for my blinds and they're the wrong size Plastered all over the site "we will not refund if you give the wrong measurements" so I follow th3e instructions to the letter....and the blinds I receive? 4mm under width of the measurements given So now I'm on day 4 of waiting for a response in "2 days" My recommendation, avoid this company.

I followed the instructions to the point when it came to measuring up. The blinds have arrived but are too wide and totally useless to me. I cannot afford to get another set now to finish my kitchen off.

I ordered 3 sets of blinds from this company a while back, two were fine but the vertical blinds are too large for the recess by a few mm. Like another reviewer, I was not able to put them up right away and the company are refusing to replace them as I didn't contact them in the first 30 days of delivery. I provided the exact measurements as requested on the site, but there is some unclear wording about extra mm needed for the fittings. I have shown this wording to several friends to make sure it's not me and they agree it's unclear. However the tone in my correspondence with customer service insinuates I am some sort of moron. I provided exact measurements for the recess for all 3 sets of blinds, and they were able to subtract what was needed for the fittings for 2 of them, but not for the vertical blind rail. I already wrote a review on TrustPilot, but I am coming over here to leave one as after I submitted my review, another one miraculously appeared an hour later, talking about how great CS are and how important it is to follow the CLEAR instructions on the company website when measuring.🙄 What a bunch of cowboys. These blinds are cheap for a reason. God help you if you have an issue - it's a gamble.

Total waste of money. Ordered custom size curtains as our living room window is quite large and non standard size. Followed company's measurement guide and placed order. When curtains arrived they were more than double the size I ordered! How big do the think our window actually is! If you have any sense please do not use them.

Original order went missing. Second order was delivered to the wrong address.. even though the right address was actually printed further down on the box. Customer services refusing to acknowledge it was ever meant to go to a different address. Not a great B2B experience.

Very Bad Service Very Bad Service, take 2 months to get 5 windows blind and received separate delivery.. every time we called.. they say it is on delivery and u will received today or tomorrow and never arrived.. which we have been waiting over 1 months of dispatched date on their website account. Also the tracking number for the delivery is not the right never and could never track my order.. I would give 0 star rating. Update.. i got an called from their company after i wrote the above review on trustpilot and again, they say i will receive it by last Friday 15th May, and didnt received the item or phone call until 18th May.. VERY BAD SERVICE .. would not recommand to order from them... No responsible for your ITEM.

Great looking Great looking, great quality and reasonable deliver! I hear your ask why the 1 star? Fitting, in all the fitting instructions, be it video or written instructions it does not tell you, you will have to drill the fixing holes in the shutters themselves. All instructions have all predrilled holes, and I guess they were missed when being manufactured! The customer service team told me (email response) Good Morning, Michael Apologies you are finding there to be issues with the shutters. Unfortunately this shutter does not come with pre fixed holes and must be manually created to allow fitting, If you require further assistance with instructions on how to fit the shutters please don't hesitate to contact us. Hi Dale, I have just looked back at your installation videos, and the frames being fitted are predrilled, photos attached... please advise.... Hello Michael Thank you for replying to my email. I understand that this is not ideal and apologise. This particular shutter does not have the pre drilled holes. I will feed this back to our improvement and production teams to discuss making that feature to be added in the future. For the inconvenience this may cause. I would like to offer a 5% additional discount for the inconvenience caused. If you have any questions please feel free to respond to this email. Hi Dale, thank you but you keep the 5% a gift from me to you, all I want is holes! could you please supply fitting instructions. Kind regards Michael Hi Mark, Mark!!!!! Apologies that we are unable to provide the holes with this current model. I have included a link to a PDF document on how to fit shutters. They follow the same instructions as those that come fitted with the holes, with the difference with your brand needing the holes to be manually created. If you require further assistance with fitting the shutters. Please don't hesitate to contact me and I will be happy to help and apologies in regard to any inconvenience caused. All i want to do is make you aware, 247 Blinds do not tell you anywhere that you will be drilling the frame yourself, I looked at everything before purchasing this shutter, and to be honest if in the fitting instructions said I would be drilling the frame I would of purchased it from another company that supplied holes... 247 Blinds, update your online fitting instructions, update the shutter page so people can see what type or model has predrilled holes and you would be receiving 5 stars all day long.

Colour of blinds received did not match sample received from company. Two black out blinds ordered and both too small for recess, had to move the brackets in so they fit, but now lets light in down both sides - therefore waste of money. I sent photos to prove this, but they keep saying within their tolerance, but even taking this into account, they are still too short in width. I would not recommend.

I purchased those blind because didn’t required drilling.Well it did not work for my windows only by drilling.Not the best quality either.Customer service contacted me to ask why I left them a negative feedback and was very rude saying that nothing they can do just because didn’t fit my windows.Clearly saying tin drilling require.Then why you sending in the package tools for drilling? All went straight in the bin. Not satisfied with quality and their poor customer service.Will not order it again.

Very poor quality of customer service/ aftercare. Their blinds themselves function well and are of satisfactory quality. However, on multiple different occasions the delivery of my orders have been delayed for several weeks (or in one case, months!) after their estimated dispatch date. 247 Blinds have lost my order, sent the wrong item and have required multiple chasing to rectify problems. Though their customer service team readily acknowledged that 247 Blinds had made significant errors, they were nevertheless unwilling to offer a discount to compensate for the disruption caused. I regret to say I would certainly not recommend.

The blinds arrived on time but they are too long. Contacted the company by email and was immediately told we were in the wrong without asking for any information. They've asked for a picture for proof of measurements. I've sent this photo and heard nothing since. The product is so far very disappointing and their customer service is abysmal. Not impressed at all.

Do not use this company. The blinds took over a month to arrive and when they did they had supplied the wrong fittings. They consistently ignored my requests for a refund and only responded when I escalated it to Paypal. A month later they are still saying they will pick up the faulty blinds but no courier ever arrives to pick it up. I am £133 out of pocket and have wasted days chasing this company and waiting for couriers which never arrive. There are plenty of other companies out there, avoid 247 Blinds.

Ordered blinds nearly 3 months ago, never came, chased and chased customer service who told me they had been delivered but couldn't tell me on what date?? After lots of chasing admitted probably not delivered and would replace - then ignored me and didn't replace. Sent multiple emails over and over again, when they do respond they make promises to refund/replace and then just ignore me again and do neither. They have my money but I have no blinds. 3 weeks since I was last able to get a response. Don't order anything from this company - they will take your money and not care about providing a product!
