Don't use Hermes Couriers!!! My instruction was to leave with neighbour if out. The driver left my parcel outside and possibly threw/dropped it over the locked gate. I emailed lighting direct about this but no one bothered to reply. Not put them up yet but if they don't work they will be going back.

I purchased a product that was promised in 2 working days. Then it became 2 weeks. When it didn't arrive, I had to chase them. Oh, sorry, there's been a holdup and won't arrive until the end of the month. In fact, I ordered on 13th March and it finally arrived on 1st May. Conversations with customer service were delightful, but not much else. Chasing a supplier for a service paid for almost 2 months' earlier is not a good experience. I will not use them again.

I am sorry for the problem with delivery on this item. There was nobody at the delivery address on the day the parcel was due to be delivered so rather than take the parcel back to the depot undelivered the driver left with the neighbour who offered to pass the parcel on once someone was home. I am sorry this did not happen immediately. Regards Jayne Bates. customerservice@lyco.co.uk Tel 08433177820

I ordered two lights, the first one arrived very quickly but the second one did not arrive until I sent an email to customers services about two weeks after the order was placed. *personal data removed by Feefo*

I am sorry for the delay on your second order. At the time of order the the webpage stated the item was out of stock and delivery was estimated to be 5 working days, unusually the item was out of stock at the manufacturer and took an extra week to come into us and was then sent into you on a next day delivery. Please accept my apologies for this unexpected delay Regards Jayne Bates customerservice@lyco.co.uk Tel 08433177820

Service good, delivery not free and took longer than expected. Product faulty will have to be replaced.

Next day delivery failed to happen, the parcel was delivered yesterday. After repeated 'track your parcel' requests which revealed nothing of any use. Why not dump FEDEX.

I am sorry your order was not delivered when expected on the 29th December.  It would seem from the tracking information that FedEx had some difficulty finding your property as I note an address query logged at 13:25 on the 29th.   Yesterday was the first opportunity for delivery after the New Year break since resolving that query.  FedEx do excellent work for us in delivering over 99% of next day deliveries on time however periodically despite their best efforts delays occur for reasons such as above. This time of the year, with the shear volume of consignments in the system, can be a challenge for all carrier services.   I will of course pass on your concerns. Thank you for getting in touch and a Happy New Year from all at Lighting-Direct!

The lights are beautiful but unfortunately the planned delivery time was changed as the package was too big. They delivered the next day with out sending me a notification and left the lights outside my house in the rain for 2 days as I had gone away. I am praying they will still work but doubt it as the boxes were saturated right through. Shall be returning for full refund if they turn out to be broke when we fit them.

Delivery was made to the wrong address and was passed on by the recipient who kindly delivered it by hand from a distance of 200 meters

I am sorry for the problem with one of the lamps, I can see you have spoken to customer service and we have replaced all 6 for you so they are matching. FedEx will always try to leave with a neighbour if you are not home when they try to deliver although this can be inconvenient it is often better than trying to redeliver another day and expecting you to stay in for a further day.

I was told that the light unit I purchased came with the ceiling hook required to fit it but it did not. When I called the supplier they said they do not sell the hooks and if I'm not happy, I could return the light! It would have been simple and more constructive to source the hook and send it to me rather than inconvenience me a second time by saying it was included when it wasn't and then on top of that offering me more inconvenience by suggesting the light be refunded.

Easy to order but payment was delayed because they tried to take it at 6am and my bank was concerned that it wasn't genuine.I phoned Lighting -direct, had to leave a message but they didn't get back to me.Then they said the order would be cancelled so I had to phone again, all time and money!

Customer care did not believe I had bought the items at 20% off in the Black Friday sale. When I responded that I was right, and had received theee more emails offering the sale I received a very rude response, so I would not buy from you or recommend you to others again. A pity, as I like your products, but customer care is more important

I initially ordered 3 fisherman pendant lights and 2 iDual ceiling lights. I had to amend the order to one large fisherman pendant and customer service was great. However, when the lights arrived, 2 out of 3 were faulty (bent or cracked) They arranged collection for the next day and I'm now awaiting a refund..
