It seems a lot of people receive a empty box or defective items. I am a victim of their empty box delivery which leaves me out of $5000. We ordered a ring in December 2020. when the shipment arrived on Dec 10 the box was empty. There was absolutely no ring! I have had to chase Selfridges every few days for updates. Not once did they reach out to me on their own after I filed the claim. This was a $5000 ring! My ring doorbell camera captured the delivery, as well as me opening the box on my doorstep with a witness present. I have snapshots from the camera of the box and the condition it was while in the delivery mans arms. The box did not appear to be tampered with. I finally received a email today 20 days later from a representative saying that it’s to bad that it’s empty, and that their CCTV show the item being put in the box so they will not refund my money or replace it. End of story... not even looking into their shipping company. They completely left me out of $5000 and no ring. I have no idea if they put insurance on the ring when they shipped it, but they have left me stuck and it’s like it’s no big deal. Selfridges email response; We write with regards to your missing item claim of the Messka My Twin Toi & Moi 18ct white-gold and diamond ring. As part of our investigation into your claim, we have undertaken a thorough review of the process leading up to delivery of your order. We can confirm that after reviewing all available information, CCTV footage reviewed and completing our investigation, the item was correctly packed into the order and sealed correctly before delivery was made to your address. Delivery has also been made successfully with no noted damage on receipt from the courier. For this reason we are unable to process a refund.

If there was a zero star option I would have chosen it. I ordered a Xmas hamper on Dec. 2 For almost $400. It is the 24th Dec and it still hasn’t arrived. Every time I call they say it is ready for dispatch and it never gets delivered. I expect they will never will and won’t return my money either. Shameful stupid inefficient and infuriating.

returned 2 Samsung laptops with a total value of approx £2000, dpd collected the items from my house and is showing up as delivered both on the selfrdiges website and DPD however i have only received refund for one laptop, i have been chasing the company for approx 3 weeks everyday which has been getting nowhere, have been promised a refund several times on several dates nothing so far as its been well over 3 weeks, best advise i can give to anyone is not to shop from here and for anyone who is having problems call your bank and ask for a charge-back. as long as you have the proof (emails receipts and tracking numbers) the banks side with the customer. The bank takes the money from Selfridges and returns the money anywhere from instant to 35 working days depending on who you bank with. I would give Selfridges 0 stars if i could!!!

I was so excited to buy my first Paco Rabanne dress from Selfridges. But it broke after only have worn it 2 times. The rings came loose from the plastic and it's ruined. I can't believe it!!! I thought Selfridges only sold high quality brands.

Unbelievable customer service from a store that prides in self in selling such high end goods. I have to keep chasing customer services for a product that was received damaged only to be told by one person that it is being investigated after I sent photos, then no response then to be told by someone else I will receive a partial refund for no fault of mine. Then I called in for the 3rd time to be told it will all be resolved by the morning and I receive an email saying a request for refund has been made and I will be informed. Nothing about how I can purchase the same item again @the 20% sale as it was a Christmas gift. Its totally shambolic! Please sort this out as its unacceptable!

Read Trustpilot, where they have a rating of 1.8 out of 5 with over 1,400 reviews. We didn't until now and it was too late. Order # 103316167. Called customer service multiple times and e-mailed them 3 times. It was a complete waste of time. It is strange when a store that sells high-end items treats their customers so poorly. I'm from the U.S. and am used to the type of great customer service that Nordstrom or Amazon.com delivers so this is all pretty new to me.

My worst shopping experience ever My order: two Loewe bags costing 4100£ in total I received a completely wrong bag (first bag) and a slightly defective bag (second bag). I have taken photos of both bags and the problem of the second bag. I was so disappointed. So basically I took them out for 5 minutes for photos. Since I can’t get an exchange so I decided to refund and order again to get the correct one and a better bag. They refused to refund for the said second bag saying I have damaged it without providing any information of what happened actually. I spent my last few days chasing for an explanation without success. It is a 2000£ bag! It has wasted so much of my time and I genuinely suffer from serious emotional distress. I am still chasing.. SO BE CAREFUL THEY SEND OUT FAULTY ITEMS AND ACCUSE YOU HAVE DAMAGED IT. AVIOD THE SHOP AT ALL COSTS.

Selfridges arranged a collection of a… I purchased a pair of designer shoes online as Selfridges, like many stores, were closed during lockdown. The shoes were too small therefore Selfridges arranged a collection service direct with DPD. Six weeks on and I still haven’t received a refund as Selfridges advise their company policy “won’t refund the customer until the courier either delivers the collected goods to Selfridges or admits liability of the lost items” resulting in the customer carrying the financial burden of the transaction. As a result of this, I wouldn’t feel confident ordering online again.

Don't Trust These Incompetent Liars. Absolutely disgusting service, placed an order for three tablets costing nearly £900 only to have my order cancelled the following morning stating I hadn't passed security checks and by pure coincidence the price of each tablet had gone up from £297 to £349. On speaking to a member of customer service they informed me it was not actually anything to do with a security check and that it was Samsung that had cancelled the order and not Selfridges and that they would contact Samsung to find out why and get back to me. Apparently the items are shipped straight from Samsung and they can cancel your order even though your order is placed with Selfridges which is not on. No one got back to me so after 24 hours I contacted customer services again and spoke to a different member off staff to be told a completely different story and that the order was cancelled because it hadn't passed the security check but no actual reason was given and that what her colleague had told me previously was wrong, so basically I've been ignored and lied to and they wont honor the original price. What a circus and I'm sorry I didn't see all the negative reviews before I placed an order with these clowns, the staff at Chicken Cottage have better customer service skills so vote with your wallets and buy elsewhere because the bottom line is that they simply do not care, you have been warned.

Great experience with the buy, delivery. The app could be improved a tad with the responsiveness. When you click on a product and refreshes to another page, it takes sometime. Overall 5 stars ⭐️ Customer experience.

Updated: Potential customers DO NOT GET FOOLED with below ‘ contact social team they will be happy to help’ this is done just to make themselves look better. I have contacted Social Team and they are ‘ unable to help me further’ so as below they keeping my item/ my refund. Please save yourself hassle and money and shop elsewhere!! Dreadful experience! I should of read the reviews before purchasing shame I haven’t! I’ve purchased Gucci scarf- delivered all correctly. Didn’t like the colour so decided to return. Item was returned approx 20.07 ever since then I still haven’t got my refund. I have sent approximately 10 chasing up emails - no reply from anyone - no communication Eventually I’ve opened the case with them on Resolver- again no response since 01.08 so it’s another month going and I haven’t heard anything from customer service who probably lost my parcel hence no refund and no communication £225 short and big lesson learnt- avoid Selfridges at all costs

Alexander McQueen Ladies Trainers My 18-year-old daughter has wanted a pair of Alexander McQueen Trainers for 5 to 6 months at a cost of £360. She had saved up and wanted to but them before the Covid lockdown. But had to wait as she missed it with the shops shutting. As soon as Selfridges at Manchester Trafford Center opened on the 15 June she could not wait any longer, so excited she went and bought the trainers and she had wanted for so long. Very pleased and proud of her purchase she brought them home to show them off to us her mum, dad and her sister. The next day on the 16 June she wore them for the first time and went to show them to her friend, she wore black pants/jeans. On the 17 June she went to put them on again and noticed that they had discoloured from the pants/jeans she wore the previous day. I returned them to Selfridges on the 17 June and spoke to the shoe department manager Stacey who told me that there was nothing they could do as it was not the shoes fault. That my daughter’s fault and that she should not have worn dark long pants that could meet the shoe as it was her fault. Basically, telling me that she should have only worn shorts, a dress, light coloured pants ETC that would not meet the shoe. Firstly, shoes should be made to stand contact with other colours from clothes and pants, at least more than once, before discolouring. I have worn white trainers for many years with dark black and blue jeans and I have never had this issue ever. You purchase what is supposed to be a top brand from a top brand store at a cost of £360 you expect certain things from them both. You expect to be able to wear the trainers more than once before any fault occurs. This is a design fault as I believe that they should have had some sort of fabric protection applied to the shoe to protect the shoe form this can of occurrence. After all you can get stain resistance carpets that will repel bleach but you can not buy a pair of Alexander Mcqueen trainers to with stand wearing pants or jeans. If it is the case that you cannot wear dark clothes then Jessica and other staff at Selfridges should advise the customer that the shoes are not fit to wear with anything that is long or dark as colour transfer will take place. My daughter was miss sold this trainer as Jessica and the manager Stacey who are more than happy to take your hard earn wages £360 but not advise you about how rubbish this shoe is at withstanding normal wear and tear.

The very worst on-line shopping experience I ever had. They cancel the transaction due to lack of stock, but they don't cancel the trasanction. It happened twice and Istill writing for my money back. I called customer service because by email they didn't reply, but it was useless as it is related to another department. I am still waiting. Don't BUY NOTHING THERE!!!
