The item I bought advised it would be with me within 1 day. A week passed and I hadn't heard anything so I emailed and they said a part wasn't available and wouldn't be with me for over a month. I replied and queried why it wasn't advised. It had also since been updated on the website to pre order but still had a much sooner dispatch date to what had since been advised via email. Customer service and communication absolutely shocking.

The spotlight plate was delivered but not the light bulbs on the same order. The driver said there was only one parcel. I e-mailed Lighting direct immediately after the driver left but to date I have had no response. Not very satisfactory

Thanks for taking the time to comment. I can see this was in a split delivery, not sure why, and it shows both were delivered, one on 14th and the other on 18th. Apologies for this, as you can appreciate the couriers are very busy at this time of year. Kind Regards Customer Services

Website stated item was in stock and available with 1 day delivery. Ordered item Monday evening, expecting this Wed or Thurs (worst case). Nothing arrived, called customer services to check and was advised lights were out of stock but delivery was coming in that day so should receive Saturday as couriers working weekends now. Rang again on Monday after no delivery to be told stock wouldn’t be arriving until Wed so would lucky to receive Thursday/Friday. Absolute joke! Not only do you continually break your promises but I was not even offered an apology by your Customer service representative, who honestly could give a toss. If had known I would ordered elsewhere as they were required urgently to be fitted as part of building work which was taking place. Needless to say I’m now having to fit these myself. Very very disappointing all round

Cheap and plastic looking outdoor light that doesn't look strong enough to put up let alone hold the glass sent with it, was cheap so to be expected. Tried to return and the cost is almost the same to post back, shocking price really so won't bother.

As soon as I made my order I realised that I had not put my work address as delivery address so emailed the hem straight after to change delivery address, no confirmation and still sent to my home address not my work address as asked, then when APC delivery was due I chose a safe place to Leave my parcel and they couldn’t even follow simple instructions!! No having trouble getting it re delivered

I have been asked to provide a review less than 24 hours after the item was delivered. Guess what, I've not had a chance to fit it yet nor are there any bulbs to test it when it is fitted. I wish companies would stop sending automated messages that clearly indicate no desire to engage personally with their customers

DELIVERY AND RETURN COST MORE THAN THE PRODUCT

Very poor service from the customer service department. I raised a number of questions on my order by email but never even replied. To three of my emails. I also had a further request but they did not accolade my order. Very poor and phoning is also a problem as it’s just rings and rings with no answer.

Reasonable price and reasonably prompt delivery but with no instructions on use and customer services offering no help at all. As a result the lighting adaptors cannot be used.

So far not good. We ordered a lamp on the 25thAugust & were informed it was in stock & would be deliver on the 27th August & in any case standard delivery was 3 to 5 days. We have nothing since with no tracking details & are still waiting to hear when we might get our small lamp post.

The ordered was not delivered by Evri. All attempts to contact Evri have failed who claim they couldn't find our house despite parking up about 10 metres from our gate.

I ordered 2 security lights, one of which was found to have a faulty pir after fitting. I emailed to ask for a replacement, but only had a reply initiating a return. So the expectation is that I get the electrician back to take it down and then for him to come back to replace, all at my cost. Bad service Lyco!

We are sorry you are disappointed. Unfortunately we could not quite get to grips with what was causing difficulty for you hence our many questions. We were trying to assist. These lamps have been in our range for some time now and this was a new query for us. Obviously the last thing we would wish for is a dissatisfied customer. The Customer Care Team

one of the lights was found to be damaged on arrival, the neck had snapped off the pir sensor, I do not think it was done in transit, so if it had been checked before dispatching the problem could have been avoided. I will repair the item myself, because i do not want the hassle of returning the product.

So sorry to hear your order was damaged on arrival. Under no circumstances would an order be dispatched damaged. Our products are fragile and despite best efforts damage sometimes occurs in transit. Had we been made aware we would have been more than happy to resolve the issue for you with minimal inconvenience to you. We are disappointed we did not get the opportunity. The Customer Care Team
