Review about: Bon Marche
Lightweight tops purchase
The amount of packaging they used for my three lightweight tops was just ridiculous! I couldn't believe how much they put in there, especially when we're all trying to be more environmentally friendly. Bonmarche, please think about using less packaging to be more sustainable.
Review about: Travelpack
Booking service for my trip
The booking service for my trip was absolutely fantastic! The team was quick, efficient, and made sure everything was perfect for my trip. I've booked with them a few times now and every time has been spot on. I never had to worry about anything going wrong because they took such good care of everything.
Review about: Reverse Life
Hair growth supplement purchase
I've been taking a hair growth supplement for almost 2 months now, and I'm really happy with how it's working for me. Before this, I had been using a different product for over 2 years, but it didn't really make much of a difference. Since I made the switch, I've seen some amazing hair growth in areas where I've been losing hair for a while. The supplement tastes nice too, so I've recommended it to my mum and sister, who have also seen great results with their hair growth and energy levels. I'm genuinely impressed with how well this product works and I plan to keep using it in the future.
Review about: Christow
Greenhouse
I recently bought a greenhouse from this shop and I've had a really good experience so far. The delivery was quick and everything arrived in excellent condition. I haven't set it up yet, but I'm confident it will be easy to do based on how good the product looks.
Review about: Always Personal
Personalised apron gift
I found this website by pure chance and I'm really happy that I did. I thought of getting a personalised apron as a gift, and I have to say that the final product was even better than I expected. The quality was amazing and it arrived surprisingly quickly. I was also really impressed by the great customer service from Rob. All in all, it was a fantastic experience and I'll definitely be buying more things from here in the future.
Review about: Shop-Apotheke
Skincare products
I have to admit, this online shop is now my favourite for skincare bits and bobs. I've been shopping with them for a good three years, and they've always come through for me. My usual purchases include La Roche-Posay and Bioderma goodies, and I've always been happy with what I've received. The prices are usually pretty competitive, although not always the cheapest. The best part for me is how quickly they deliver - it's a major bonus. Overall, I'd definitely suggest checking out this shop for all your skincare essentials.
Review about: Sykes Cottages
Fourth booking with this company
I've had mostly good experiences with this company. The descriptions of the cottages and apartments were spot on, and the photos really helped me make up my mind. Booking was easy and I got quick replies too.
Review about: Better2know
Travel certificate verification
I needed to check my travel certificate to go back to Canada urgently and Better2know was amazing. The team, particularly Louise Wright, provided really good and quick help. I was waiting at Gatwick Airport and Louise sorted out the documents I needed within minutes of me asking. It was a stressful situation, so the great service was really appreciated and meant I could get on my flight without any problems. Huge thanks to Louise and Better2know for their fantastic support!
Review about: SnowInn
PETZL Nao RL Headlight Black One Size
I recently bought the PETZL Nao RL Headlight in Black, One Size from this company and I have to say, the whole process went really smoothly. I placed my order without any problems and I was pleasantly surprised by the updates I got about the status of my order and when it would be delivered. When the headlight finally arrived, I was really happy with how good quality it was and how well it worked. It's been a great help during my night runs. Overall, I'm really pleased with both the product and the whole shopping experience with this company. I'll definitely come back again and would highly recommend them to others too. Thanks.
Review about: Buckley London
Ring that lost its shine in a month
I purchased a ring that was supposed to have this special coating, but it lost its shine after only a month! I tried reaching out to them via email to return it, but they never got back to me. I won't be buying from them again!
Review about: Duracell Direct
Battery purchase
I bought some batteries from this website not too long ago and I have to say I was really impressed with how easy it was to order them. The website was simple to use and I found the batteries I needed pretty quickly because they had all the stock info and descriptions clearly laid out. The whole shopping process was really smooth and stress-free, which is always a bonus when you're buying stuff online, especially essentials like batteries.
Review about: Scottish Friendly
Long-term investment performance
I'm really let down by how my investment with this company has turned out. In the last ten years, my money has dropped by over 20%, which is not what I was expecting at all when I decided to invest with them. It's disheartening to see such bad results after trusting them with my money for so long. I wouldn't suggest investing with them if you want to actually make a profit.
Review about: Warehouse Fashions
Online skirt purchase
I had a terrible experience with this company. I ordered a skirt online and when it arrived, it looked nothing like the photo on their website. I returned the item promptly for a refund, but they refused to cover my postage costs. It felt like rubbing salt in the wound! It's pretty obvious that this company cares more about making money than keeping their customers happy. The customer service team was no help at all and wouldn't let me speak to a manager, so I had to get PayPal involved. Do yourself a favour and steer clear of shopping here. There are plenty of other retailers out there who actually value their customers.
Review about: VapeSourcing
E-cigarette starter kit
I bought an e-cigarette starter kit recently and I was a bit disappointed because it took ages for my order to be shipped. I was expecting it to be processed and sent out quickly, but that wasn't the case. The website said it would be shipped fast, but it actually took 3-5 business days after the initial delay before I even got a tracking number. I'd really like it if they could improve their shipping process in the future to be more efficient and timely.
Review about: Hudson Shoes
Boots purchase
These boots look really cool and are so comfy, but they actually broke on me twice! I originally bought them because they looked awesome and felt like walking on clouds. I got them in 2020, but they fell apart, so I had to send them back. I received a replacement pair, but to my disappointment, they also fell apart. It's such a shame because I really liked the design and how comfortable they were on my feet.
Review about: Route One
Online shopping experience
I just have to say, I'm really baffled by all the bad reviews this company has had before. My recent time shopping with them was honestly top-notch. The prices were so good, the range of products they had was amazing, and my order arrived super quickly. I'm already thinking about what I want to buy next from them and I would definitely suggest them to anyone wanting a trustworthy online store.
Review about: skinbunny
Great product, excellent customer service, expensive import charges
I recently bought something from this company and had a bit of a mixed experience. The product I got was really good quality, so I gave it a 5-star rating. Customer service was also quick and professional in responding to my questions. But I was a bit let down when I found out that I had to pay extra for import charges on top of the purchase price. This came as a surprise and added unexpected costs. When I got in touch with customer service about this issue, they told me I either had to pay the tax to keep the item or send it back for a refund. I felt a bit frustrated as a customer because I wasn't told about this extra cost before I placed my order.
Review about: Made With Love and Sparkle
Gold Glitter Heart Balloon Print
I recently bought the Gold Glitter Heart Balloon Print and I have to say, the customer service was top-notch. There was a small spelling error on the first print I got, but they promptly sent me a replacement that actually arrived quicker than the first one. I really appreciate their quick and precise action. Honestly, I have nothing bad to say about this company - I would absolutely suggest them to anyone. I'll definitely be placing more orders with them in the future.
Review about: CHO
Babour Calvary jacket
I recently bought the Barbour Calvary jacket and I'm really loving it! It's great for staying warm without being too bulky, so it's perfect for those cool days. Even when it's humid, the jacket dries quickly, which is a big plus for me. The quality of the jacket is excellent, with every little detail carefully done. All in all, I'm really happy with my purchase and I think it was worth every penny.
Review about: Robert Goddard
Skirt purchase, assisted by store staff
I popped into the shop not long ago and got some help from a lovely staff member called Mel. She really knew her stuff and gave me some great tips on what size to go for and what to team the skirt with. Mel was really helpful and even gave her thoughts when I tried it on, which I found really useful. All in all, I had a good time in the shop and I was really happy with what I bought. I'd definitely suggest this shop to others.
Review about: Double Boxed Toys
Collectible action figure
I bought a collectible action figure from Double Boxed Toys not long ago, and I have to say, I was really impressed with how the whole shopping experience went. The item turned up in perfect condition, wrapped up really carefully in a strong box, so it arrived safely. The care and effort they put into packaging it was really noticeable, and it's obvious that the folks at Double Boxed Toys put a lot of pride into making sure their products get to customers looking tip-top.
Review about: Carethy
Disappointing order experience
I ordered some products that were out of stock, so I had to cancel my order. It's been since February and I'm still waiting for my refund. The communication and service have been really poor. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
Review about: Tu
Linen trousers
I found it really easy to get hold of those linen trousers online and they're even better in person. It was a breeze picking them up from the store too, so convenient! Honestly, these trousers are amazing. They look a lot more expensive than they were and they fit perfectly. I feel really stylish when I wear them and they go with everything I own. I definitely recommend them!
Review about: Earth Wardrobe
Sustainable clothing purchase
The customer service is terrible! I waited patiently for two weeks after the delivery date had passed, and despite sending several contact forms and emails, I was completely ignored. I had no choice but to take the matter up with my credit card company to get a refund. Surprisingly, just two hours after doing that, I suddenly received an email saying that my order had been dispatched. It's obvious that someone there only bothers to read emails when it benefits them. I used to have faith in this company, but after reading recent reviews and my personal experience, they are definitely not trustworthy anymore.
Review about: Motoring Assistance
customized breakdown cover plan
They provide the same benefits and services as the ... companies but at a much more affordable price while allowing me to completely customize my cover plan. They also answer very quickly and come prepared to help with a dead car battery or if you’re stuck with fuel so overall a good company to use.
Review about: XY LONDON
Shoes
I recently bought a pair of shoes from this company and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. The website was so easy to use, I found exactly what I needed without any hassle. The delivery was super quick too, I got my order in just a few days. The service I got was top-notch from beginning to end. The prices were good and the shoes I got were really nice. All in all, it was a really positive shopping experience with this company.
Review about: Stress Free Car Rental
Quick email response for incorrect email address
I had a bit of a problem the other day with an email address mix-up when I was booking a rental car. So, I sent an email to the customer service team to ask for a fix and a new booking confirmation. To my amazement, they got back to me in just 15 minutes to say they had updated the details and sent over the new info. I was really impressed with how quickly and efficiently they handled everything.
Review about: Bitiba
Pet supplies missing delivery
I ordered some pet supplies from this company not long ago, and I was let down when I found out I only got two out of the three parcels I was supposed to receive. I tried to get in touch with their customer service about the missing items, but when I filled out the online form for help, I just got a message saying there was an error. It was really frustrating not getting a response or any help to fix the issue. Now I've been charged for items I never got, ending up paying for eight items but only receiving five. This whole situation has left me feeling really disappointed and I'm not keen on using this company again.
Review about: Lebara Mobile
Data connection
I recently got a data plan from this service provider, and I have to say I'm really let down with the data connection. For the last two weeks in Hull, I've been facing weak data connection. Even after trying numerous times to fix it, the issue still remains. It's been a real hassle because I use my data a lot for work and personal stuff. I really hope they sort this out soon because it's not right for a service provider to have such rubbish connectivity.
Review about: The Bottle Club
Bought some drinks online
I ordered some drinks online and it was really simple and straightforward! They kept me updated on when my delivery would arrive, which was really useful. The bottles came in perfect condition, well wrapped and secure, so no damages. It was my first time ordering and I couldn't be happier - thank you so much!
Review about: Direct Stoves
Damaged stove purchase
I bought a stove from this company not long ago and when it arrived, it was damaged with rust on the top plate. I sent them some photos of the damage and explained that I hadn't kept the stove outside like customer service said, but they didn't acknowledge or fix the problem.
Review about: Kenny’s Music
Keyboard purchase for son's birthday
I was looking to get a keyboard for my son's birthday and gave them a ring for some help and advice. The folks there were really helpful and knew their stuff, which made it a breeze for me to pick the perfect one. I could have spent less by ordering online, but I prefer to support small businesses. The customer service was excellent and the delivery came super quick. Big thanks to Kenny's Music!
Review about: Hunt or Dye
Violette hair dye
To be honest, I was so excited to try the Violette hair dye, hoping for that vibrant purple I've always dreamed of. But it was a complete disaster - I ended up with grey hair instead. My scalp and hands had more colour than my actual hair! I'm naturally blonde and was expecting a bold result, but it turned out dull and disappointing. I followed the instructions perfectly, so I'm not sure what went awry. Perhaps this dye isn't suited for blonde locks like mine.
Review about: ebookers
Hotel booking trouble
I've had two bad experiences booking hotels through this platform. It's one thing to have a problem once, but having it happen again is just not on. Both times, I booked and paid for my room upfront, but when I got to the hotel, they wouldn't let me stay there. I tried reaching out to both the hotel and the platform for help, but neither could give me a good reason or even say sorry for the hassle. This has really annoyed and disappointed me, the way they've handled the situation.
Review about: Trail Outdoor Leisure
Gazebo shelter XL
So, I managed to get my hands on this really cool gazebo shelter XL from Trail Outdoor Leisure and honestly, it's amazing! The price was great and the delivery was super quick. The only downside is that I have to wait until June 24 to give it a try. But I'm sure it's going to be fantastic when I finally get to use it. Here's to that!
Review about: Air and Grace
Wedding heels
I hardly ever wear heels, but I had to for a wedding. Reluctantly, I gave it a try wearing this brand my friend recommended. And you know what? I was pleasantly surprised! These heels were amazing - they got me through dancing at a ceilidh and running around Edinburgh, and they were actually comfortable! Wearing them felt like a dream, and now I'm hooked - I want them in every colour. Thank you for creating such comfortable and stylish heels!
Review about: Bedworld
Easy ordering process
The person I spoke to at Bedworld was really helpful and made it easy for me to order. They knew a lot about the products and helped me choose the best bed for me. The delivery was quick and I got my new bed on time. I was really happy with the service I received from Bedworld.
Review about: WoolOvers
Helpful customer service, alternate delivery suggestion
I had a really good chat with the customer service rep who helped me decide on the right size to order. She was friendly and also recommended a different delivery company that works better for my rural area, which was really helpful. I can't quite remember her name though.
Review about: Astrid and Miyu
Online shopping experience
I wanted to share about my recent online shopping experience, where I needed some help. I sent an email and got a quick response from a friendly and helpful customer service agent. They sorted out my concerns efficiently. Also, when I needed to book a service appointment, they quickly found a good time for me. I was really happy with the service I got overall.
Review about: Healthy Stuff
Health supplements
The service at this place is top-notch. Kai was so helpful in making sure my order was right and all my details were correct. I really liked how efficient and friendly the staff were. The products are really good quality and have really helped improve my health and well-being. Thanks for giving me such a great experience!
Review about: Simon Carter
Incorrect item received
My experience with the company was really disappointing because I got the wrong item in my order. I had to contact customer service, and they told me to send an email to get a returns label and put a note in the parcel with more details. It was a hassle and took a lot of time, which made the whole experience pretty bad.
Review about: Julian Charles
Summer reversible duvet cover
I recently bought a summer reversible duvet cover from this shop and I have to say I am really pleased with my choice. The design is perfect for summer, really pretty, and the fact that it is reversible is a bonus as it looks good whichever way you put it on. The material is top notch too, giving a comfy and snug night's sleep. I definitely suggest this duvet cover to anyone wanting to spruce up their bedroom decor with a fresh touch.
Review about: Tree2mydoor
Flowering tree gift replacement
I was given a flowering tree as a gift, but it sadly didn't do very well over the last year. I got in touch with Tree2mydoor for some guidance and sent them pictures of the struggling tree. They were super quick in sorting out a replacement, which arrived in great condition. Even though there was a small issue with the second replacement, their customer service team sorted it out promptly. I'm really happy with how they took care of things afterwards, and I can't wait to see my new tree flourishing and blooming.
Review about: Case Luggage
Perfect travel bag, lots of compartments
I recently bought a travel bag from Case Luggage, and I have to say, it's exactly what I've been looking for. The size is just right, not too large but with lots of pockets to keep my things tidy while I'm on the go. The bag is really well-made, and I can see it lasting me for ages. I would definitely recommend Case Luggage to anyone looking for a sturdy and practical travel bag.
Review about: LN-CC
Unique bag purchase, hardware issue
I recently bought this really cool bag from LN-CC, but unfortunately, I had some issues with the hardware after using it only a few times. When I got in touch with the brand, they were not very helpful at all, and kind of blamed me for the problem without offering any solutions. Feeling frustrated, I reached out to LN-CC for help, and I was pleasantly surprised by their response. They really went out of their way to contact the brand on my behalf and arrange for the repair. Throughout the whole process, LN-CC's customer service was amazing, providing me with support and guidance every step of the way. It was great to see a retailer that genuinely cares about its customers and is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure they're happy. Thanks a lot, LN-CC, for restoring my faith in top-notch customer service.
Review about: Construction Helpline
Course assistance
I got really good help and they were very patient when I was dealing with a problem with the system check link to get to my final exam. The customer service was so polite and helpful the whole time. I was really impressed with how much the person helping me knew and how expert they were.
Review about: Alfa Travel
Edinburgh trip
The drivers were so nice and helpful, they really took care of us on the outings. The trips themselves were so much fun. But I have to say, the Waverly Castle Hotel in Melrose was a bit out of the way and inside it was a bit tricky finding where things like the restaurant and bar were located.
Review about: OFCASA
Comfy chairs at a good price
These chairs are just brilliant! They're so comfy to sit on, and they don't cost an arm and a leg. The delivery was really quick too, which was a nice surprise. Overall, I'm really happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend these chairs to anyone in need of good quality furniture that doesn't cost a fortune.
Review about: Gardenesque
Large planter purchase
I'm really let down by the service I got from this company. I bought a big planter and was promised it would be here in 2-4 days. However, it's been 2 weeks now and I've heard nothing about my order. I've tried calling and emailing several times but haven't been able to speak to anyone about my purchase. It's annoying to see that other customers are having the same problems, yet the company isn't doing anything to solve these issues. This lack of communication and responsibility is just not on.
Review about: Open Study College
Course enrollment
I recently signed up for a course and I must say, I was really impressed with the support I received from the staff member. They took the time to answer all my questions and gave me some great advice to help me pick the right course. Their customer service was top-notch and made me feel really good about my choice. Huge thanks to the staff member for all their help - you're a star!
Review about: Shirtbox
Two T-shirts ordered
I purchased two T-shirts almost a month ago, but I still haven't received them. There's no tracking info available, and I can't contact the company by phone. The order confirmation said they'd arrive by a specific date, but that has come and gone. It seems like the company I'm buying from might have been bought out by another, and they're not bothered about keeping their customers updated or happy. I've had a bad time with a different website that got taken over by this same company before, and it was a total mess.
Review about: Desigual
"Undelivered parcel frustration"
I'm absolutely furious. This is now the second time that these guys have messed up my delivery. The tracking info says it's been dropped off, but I promise you, it hasn't. It honestly feels like I've been scammed out of my cash and faith in this company. How can they think it's okay to be so deceitful? It's just not on. Needless to say, I won't be buying from them anymore.
Review about: punchtechnology
Custom PC purchase with guidance from Jonathan
I don't know much about PCs, so when I wanted to buy one, I was really glad I had Jonathan from Punch to help me out. He was really patient and knew his stuff, and he helped me choose the right parts for what I needed. I liked that he didn't try to push me into buying anything, and he even convinced me to go for a slightly cheaper option on some things so I could get better performance for my work. Thanks to Jonathan, I felt really sure about my purchase in the end.
Review about: Cettire
Bottega Mules Black
I recently bought a pair of Bottega Mules in Black from an online boutique. Unfortunately, after just three wears, the mules broke, making them impossible to wear. I tried to get them fixed, returned, or exchanged, but the company didn't offer any options. On the other hand, I bought the same pair in white directly from Bottega a year ago, and they're still in perfect condition. When I contacted Bottega about the issue with the black mules, they said if it had happened within six weeks of purchase, they would have sorted it out with a repair, replacement, or refund. It's really disappointing to see luxury brands being sold through online boutiques that don't seem to care much about their customers or their products.
Review about: yoox
Better Prices and Fast Delivery
Yoox is definitely the best when it comes to prices compared to other companies. I was really pleased with how quickly my order arrived. The customer service was spot on - they were so helpful and explained everything I needed to know.
Review about: Dv8 Fashion
Vans shoes purchase
At first, I wasn't sure about ordering from this shop because of some mixed Trustpilot reviews and the fact that I didn't know much about the brand. But when I saw the Vans shoes I wanted were only £29.99, I couldn't resist. Even though I wasn't completely convinced, I decided to take the plunge and make the purchase. To my surprise, the shoes arrived the very next day. Not only did they come super quickly, but they were exactly what I was hoping for. The quality was top-notch, and they fit perfectly. I have to say, I was really impressed by the overall service and the great value for money. From my experience, I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for good deals and speedy service.

Review about: Shaw Academy
Beauty classes, marketing, business
I really love the ease and flexibilty of taking these classes as well as the information presented!
Review about: Shaw Academy
Digital Marketing
Only taken the first class the instructor is easy to understand etc a little fast for me to take accurate notes but you can go back and rewatch from your dashboard. Super informative certainly right for someone for very little knowledge gave the very basics to set you up with a great foundation. I really felt I was back at school.
Review about: Shaw Academy
Smartphone photography
I think the smartphone Photography course is for people who have basically no understanding of a camera on a phone. So if you know very little then it would be helpful for you.
I felt like I knew most of what was taught so my skills level didn't improve but I did learn more technical terms.
I did it when Shaw was offering free courses so nothing to complain about. But if I had paid for it I wouldn't be impressed.
I dont think it's worth purchasing the certificate for this course either.
I have just started another course and think it's a lot better product.Review about: Shaw Academy
Photography course
Only done one lesson but it was very interesting.
Perhaps too many emails prior to the session.Review about: Bloom Boutique
Beautiful but extremly unique
On my sister's birthday, my mother gifted us two necklaces and they were extremely beautiful and personalized with our name written on it. after my mother told me that she bought it from Bloom, i ordered few more stuff for myself.
What i really like about bloom is they are very unique in a different way and they hold the designs from a traditional section which is so awesome
I'm pleased to say that Shaw Academy's free designer course has been an eye opener for me in that I have, for years now, been considering learning how to design without really getting it off the ground.
In the last 3 weeks, I have learnt a lot about the theories and the practical application of design. I very much appreciate the opportunity provided by Shaw Academy to interested persons to learn for free. I will gladly recommend that that anyone interested in broadening his/her knowledge or learning a new skill to register with Shaw Academy. The lessons are well structured and easy to follow at your own free time.
You can always learn more in your choosing course by registering for the professional course for more detailed learning.
Thank you Shaw Academy for the opportunity.
