I sent in an order on the 19th of November I ordered 11 lights & 11 bulbs. I got delivered 1 light & 11 bulbs. And the order then said completed. As of the 29th of November I still hadn't received my order. They're taking orders that they can't fill. Communication is either to a bot or pre written text responses . The rest of My order arrived on the 1st December. Never again would I buy off them. And I do not recommend them. I managed to go to screwfix & get the same lights ordered & arrived in the next day.

Hello Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on multiple platforms. We’re genuinely sorry for the frustration caused by the split delivery of your order and the confusion this created. Your order was dispatched in more than one parcel due to stock availability at the time, which unfortunately resulted in part of the order arriving earlier than the remainder. While the balance of your items was delivered shortly afterwards, we completely understand that this was inconvenient and not the experience you expected. We also apologise if our communication felt impersonal — we aim to respond as quickly and clearly as possible, and we’re continuously working to improve this. Your comments have been noted and will be used to help us improve our service going forward. We appreciate you sharing your experience and are sorry to hear that we fell short on this occasion. Kind regards, Hannah

The glue guns were sturdy but after a few moments they switched off leading me to believe there was an electrical fault hence the low price. I was unable to get any power continuity from them. I tried different plug points to no avail. Wouldn't buy them again. Shipping was fast

Ordered item got email next day saying it was dispatched. A week later got another email telling me that I might have to wait for order. Eventually arrived almost 3 weeks later. Poor service

Hello Margaret Thank you for your review. We’re sorry for any confusion caused by the emails you received. We’ve checked our system, and your order was placed on the 25th and delivered on the 27th, so it arrived within two days. The later message about a possible delay was sent in error, and we apologise for the mix-up. We appreciate your understanding and the chance to clarify this. Best wishes Hannah

Found a cheaper price after purchase and reached out to customer services but, despite their price-match claim on the website, Electrical World refused to offer any partial refund. They say they only price-match if you contact them BEFORE purchase and send them a link to the other supplier's item! It's all there in the small print apparaently. Hey, but why wouldn't you just buy from the other supplier in the first place?! Just another sales gimmick I'm afraid - but who knows, maybe this review will win me the £1000 Amazon voucher ...

Hello We’re sorry you’re disappointed. As clearly stated on our website, our price-match policy only applies if you contact us before making a purchase and provide a link to the competitor’s item. Requests made after purchase unfortunately cannot be honored. We understand this isn’t the outcome you hoped for, but we always follow our policies fairly for all customers. Kind regards, Hannah

Sadly the Evri couriers are very poor in my local area and despite having had a good experience before, this time it was not the case - dog food was ordered on 30th May - and following repeated chase ups from me I discovered the food was lost by evri, so a replacement was offered, then it was out of stock, the next day it was back in stock and now I'm waiting for a refund which can take 3-5 days to process, followed by my own banks processing time. Sadly, I now will be checking what courier companies use as im having to source the food in more expensive smaller batches locally while I wait for my refund.

I ordered some seeds , when they arrived I saw they were out of date . I contacted customer service, and they said I could keep the seeds and have a 10% refund . After several emails backwards and forwards they finally agreed a 40% refund . More chase up emails later they finaly refunded the 40% . Not great service as I would have expected an instant no quibble full refund. I won't be using them again.

Electrical World had the cat food which not many people stock which we feed our cat ! Great, I thought! I signed up as a new customer to get a £10 off code. The code did not work which was disappointing as the food cost over the limit to activate the code. As we needed the food, i placed the order though I did feel it was misleading. I received an email to say that the food had been dispatched. However, the link did not work and then I received another email to apologise for the delay and that they would be sorting out the order as soon as possible. As I needed the food, I placed an emergency order elsewhere and drove 20 miles to collect (we are picky what we feed our pets) only to then receive the food the next day! To summarise, poor communication, no phone number to contact anyone and only a robot to speak to online. Tracking links don’t work and misleading promotions and details of the arrival of packages. The good news is that I keep receiving texts telling me I haven’t used my code…! Would I order again? No, thank you.

The ordér I placed was not the order I received, they sent an alternative which was no good to me. I asked about sending item back and they obviously thought it was easier to offer a 10% refund and I keep the unwanted goods. I replied saying the goods were ni good to me and could I send item back please. Got a further email offering me 20% refund and I keep the goods. In the end I just accepted and gave the goods to charity. I think I got less than £2 refund not even covering the postage I had paid. I think as a goodwill gesture and the fact that they sent the wrong item they could have given me a full refund with an apology. At least that way as a customer it would be appreciated and would encourage someone to buy again from them. Instead I was very unhappy and would not buy again or recommend to anyone. I paid more for the items anyway than in the shops and the item they sent I could easily buy cheaper in the local supermarket if id wanted it instead I was very much out of pocket and had to then go online and buy from another company again at a higher cost but at least I received the correct goods this time.

The item was beautiful, but the specifications could have been more clear. It should state if ordered outside of UK it requires different voltage. Very dissatisfied with the return costing me money.

Only one of five boxes of dog food arrived and that was outside the time frame suggested and not the type ordered. Had to chase up the remaining four which have finally been delivered and thankfully they are the correct food. Unlikely to use this company in future.
