“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.”

“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

“Package was due to be delivered yesterday via a company called APC but failed to arrive. Tracking info said it was out for delivery between 14.30 and 16.30 15th November. Company policy is not to leave a package in a safe place but to hand it to the customer. So, I need to be in but I've no idea when delivery will take place. Emailed APC and Lighting Direct for a response. Appreciate this is an issue with the out sourced delivery company and not Lighting Direct but they are working on Lighting Direct's behalf and their reputation rests on the efficiency of their delivery contract.”

Thank you for getting in touch. We would have been more than happy to pass on "safe place" instructions to the carrier had they been provided with the order. Unfortunately as this was not the case APC could not leave the parcel. Perhaps next time you will let us assist. Thank you for your order. The Customer Care Team

“Very disappointed, the order never arrived. Who knows where it went. Money was taken from my bank account and now still awaiting a refund 10 days after placing the order. Requested a replacement order and what a surprise now sold out. I don`t believe the company had the lights to fulfil my order but took the money out of my account anyway.”

We are sorry you are disappointed with your experience shopping with us. Two parcels left us on the 2nd November and subsequently went missing. Tracking details were provided to you at the time of dispatch. Unfortunately we had no more stock at the time so could not replace the order and instead arranged an immediate full refund. We note since that one parcel did in fact get located and has been delivered safely to you so while you do not have all of your solar lights you do at least have some of the order and have also been refunded in full.

“I was given the option to get my lights the next day by purchasing express delivery for £5.99, as long as I purchased my items within the next two hours - which is what I did, on Monday around 5pm ish. I received an email a on Tuesday to say my order would arrive on Wednesday (today) but still no lights. Tried calling lights direct and DX as I needed them Tuesday, but due to the high volume of calls, I was given an option to leave a message! Unfortunately I can’t comment on the quality of the lights, but it’s a poor service as I haven’t got what I paid for and can’t speak to anyone to discuss this further! Help me by getting my lights to me by Thursday morning and refunding the express delivery fee.”

Please review the delivery page on our website. Our Express Service is a two day service. I am pleased to note your order arrived today within two days of leaving our warehouse. I hope you are delighted with your lights and we look forward to you shopping with us again soon. The Customer Care Team

Thank you for getting in touch. There has been a misunderstanding here I'm afraid. Please see the delivery page on our website - we do not offer a Sunday delivery and never have. Our Express Service is a one to two day service excluding Sundays. I hope you were delighted with your products. Thank you for your order. The Customer Care Team
