I first ordered some fabric and was disappointed I'd paid £4.95 and had to wait several days for delivery. I then realised it was coming by UPS so sort of understood the charge. Luckily, someone was home to accept delivery. It was not made clear prior to ordering that delivery was by UPS requiring signature. I then ordered some more fabric, (whilst the first order was being processed). Once I realised the delivery required signature and knowing no-one would be at home, I requested the delivery address to be changed and asked for confirmation it could be changed, which, I got. However, my fabric was delivered to my original home address and not my work address which I expected. This has caused frustration and inconvenience as I am now out of the country and can not collect my fabric from my neighbour for a while as they are then on holiday. My request is that 1) you make it clear on your website that deliveries will require signature. . 2) you give an option for small quantities of fabric to be delivered by Royal Mail that fits through a letterbox. 3) you refund my postage costs for both orders as it has caused me more trouble than it's worth. Honest but true.

I telephoned to ask about delivery details prior to placing an order. I was given some timescales and told that after I placed an order I would receive an e-mail confirming the order and providing me with a tracking number for delivery. I did not receive an e-mail and several days later telephoned to check the order. After being kept waiting for a a while I was told it had been dispatched the previous day and would be with me that day. I explained I had to do the school run and could not remain in all day. No time could be given or tracking details, but as I had provided my mobile telephone number I was informed the driver would call me prior to delivery. I went out and later returned to the house. Two minutes after I returned, the package was delivered - no phone call had been made and it was fortunate that I was in. Had I not been, I would have had to rearrange delivery which would have been very inconvenient as I was due to go on holiday two days later. I had previously had to chase up samples. I was happy with the fabric, but all in all, it seems that your administration is not all it could be.

I purchased 3 rolls of a paper called "Stars" at £70 a roll made by Cole and Son but supplied by Jane Clayton Co. The rolls of paper were all from the same batch and all three had a defect in the print (see photo) consisting of a faded strip of colour which means I was unable to use the rolls. JC may say we just supply we do not make the wallpaper but really for that price I would expect to see more quality control over what went out to customers. I shall be asking for replacement rolls of an identical pattern in the near future hopefully it is still being made

Thank you for your review Howard, we are very sorry to hear that there is a defect with your wallpaper. Cole & Son wallpapers are sent directly to our customers so we do not have a chance to check these over, but it is very unusual for there to be problems such as this. We will of course be in touch to help rectify the situation. Thank you again for getting in touch.

Thank you for your review Maureen, we are very sorry that your sample order took longer than expected to arrive. We are reliant on our suppliers getting samples to us on time as we do not hold stock here at our warehouses but are very sorry that on this occasion our service was not up to standard. We hope this experience would not stop you from ordering from us again, and thank you again for taking time to write us a review.

Waited a long time for samples (and these were the only samples I had to pay for as no other company charges). Finally ordered fabric and was only informed after I had placed the order online that the fabric was out of stock.

Cushion patterns do not match and the cushions smell terrible. It has taken three days for the cushions to smell better and I have had to wash the cushions covers. I can't be bothered to send them back but considering the price the pattern on both cushions could have been matched better.

Thank you for your review Linda, we always appreciate feedback from our customers. As the cushions have feather pads in them, they can have a slight smell, but this should fade very quickly once unpacked from the plastic. We are sorry to hear that you are not happy with the pattern matching on your cushions as we always try to match patterns as closely as possible and hope this will not put you off ordering from us again.

Poorly packaged- damaged in transit. Flaw in fabric only noticed after it had been cut and lining fabric had mark on one edge. So no not a good experience

Very disappointed with the service at Jane Clayton. I have ordered a lot of wallpaper from them recently. I have a large project going on and I won't be ordering anything else! Very short sighted and arrogant!

Good product but was unhappy with the return policy as would not accept return of unopened roll of wallpaper at the cost of £85 a roll. I did check the returns policy but did not notice that they will not receive the part returns even unopened. I was also fast to reply - within the stated 14 days. The small print highlighted non return reason as the batch number. As a consequence I wouldn't shop here again. I would like to suggest marking this fact much more clear on the website next to the product that if you over estimate you cannot return and perhaps also the and also on the return information on the back of the delivery note.

I bought wallpaper from Jane Clayton - the first time I had purchased from them. I am very pleased with the wallpaper itself and it arrived in 3 working, which was great. BUT the packing of the wallpaper was very inadequate and disappointing - my 8 rolls were placed in a cardboard box that was considerably larger than needed, with a very small amount of brown paper, so they were rolling and falling around inside. I expected the worse, but luckily the wallpaper was undamaged. I was lucky this time but will think twice before using Jane Clayton again if this is the way they pack fragile goods for transit.

I arranged for delivery at local Halfords. First i was told delivery would be on 3rd Dec. on 3rd got new message will be delivered next day. Message on 7th at Halfords now. 7th.went to pick up but Halfords said not there so rang next day no still not there but they checked and found it. The DPD label had been stuck over my name so not recognised. Not good enough but DPD to blame not Jane Clayton.

I was given a delivery date then received an email from the carrier after it should have been delivered to say the item had not been received by them and to contact the supplier. I made contact and was informed that the carrier had not made a pick up the previous evening. Why was I not advised, time wasted waiting for a delivery, why did no one take responsibility to notify me. I received the fabric and had to contact the supplier as the cut looked more like it had been chewed and the thread had run. I have been advised that it will be replaced. The faulty fabric must be returned and they have made arrangements to pick up but I an inconvenienced as I must wait for collection. I must also wait for delivery of the replacement fabric. Staff very helpful and polite but none the less not a good first time experience.

On tracking my parcel it states I had been carded twice, but no card was left, therefore I could not go to the depot to pick it up. Since it is a Bank holiday I have had to request that it be delivered 4 days later! Also the address that was supposedly carded was not mine but a neighbours. I checked with her but she had not been carded either. I was told that I would be texted on the Friday morning and given a delivery slot but this never happened. Perhaps a change of carrier is due?

Sorry, but for the moment I am really not impressed. We ordered a large amount of a Marvic Fabric. It came to about £1500, not a small amount. We live abroad, our credit card is billed to our home address. This seems to have caused a problem with the payment system at JC, which detected a possibility of fraud. It took them one week to contact us about this problem. Bizarrely our bank didn't have a problem … So we thought: Problem solved!… oh no - then JC contacted me because they only had three cuts of different lengths of the fabric. "Would that be fine?" Noo, it isn't I want one piece of the fabric, and so I will have to wait 6 to 8 weeks. During which they were quite happy to have our money in their bank, if we hadn't asked to be reimbursed and contacted once they had the fabric. So I will wait and hope that then things will be smoother.

Thank you very much for your review, Stephanie. It's always useful for us to get some feedback from our customers and we'll certainly take that into consideration when reviewing our procedures. We do ordinarily send samples via Royal Mail, in a separate delivery. We're very sorry if you felt that it was not made clear that your wallpaper sample would follow.

We have received the wallpaper in a solid block as if it was just printed. Even the edges were not removed. We had to take them to the local printer to have the edges cut neatly for a perfect fit/match which cost us an extra £40. Shame! Other than that the order came promptly.

Thank you very much for your review, Leana. It's always good for us to get some feedback from our customers. The Zoffany Gondolier is an untrimmed wallpaper which comes in one continuous piece. We are currently in the process of updating the product information on our website.

The Topiary , Clarke and Clarke fabric I ordered was disappointing because the pattern on the fabric did not run along the grain. I tried to cut along the pattern, but in the end had to cut along the grain, so the pattern is on a wonk! I just hope that it is not too noticeable when I hang them up.
