Shoes took ages to arrive however this would appear to be a shipping issue. Poor coms from DC are the reason for 3 stars. They could have let me know there was an issue and provided a time scale. They... See more

The delivery takes almost twice as long as it should and I wasn't allowed to use my welcoming coupon when ordering so I started getting spammed with junk mail in my inbox without any reward for it. I... See more

Order never came

Ordered shoes on the 24th of May, still have not received by 16th of June. Says on my tracking it’s been in the Netherlands since 28th of May and no update since. Tried contacting customer service and they sent me a different delivery link that said my parcel had been delivered even though it hadn’t and the original tracking says that it’s still in the Netherlands?? Never received any more contact from support team. Would not order from DC again

Ordered on 23rd May

Ordered on 23rd May, delivery stuck in Netherlands ever since. DC shoes customer service never responded, had to initiate a chargeback with my bank. Will never order from this website ever again as this company cannot be trusted.

Ordered shoes, almost 3 weeks later I’ve still not got them, customer services ignore my emails, so I’m £60 out with no shoes, tracking says they have been lying at Nederland bv since June 2nd, completely unacceptable, avaoid at all costs

Zero response from support

I was expecting the order to take a while as it usually does but this time it didn't arrive. I've opened several support tickets and sent 6 emails no response to any of them for over two weeks now.

Uses AI instead of humans for customer service

Despite DPD saying they delivered my order 10 days ago, it isn’t here and I’ve had no missed parcel card. Fair enough, these things happen.
I contacted customer services and received a ridiculous AI response apologising that my order is taking longer than expected and supplying the tracking information to show it was allegedly delivered.
No contact from a sentient human, no assistance, despite repeated attempts at contact.
My advice is to avoid ordering direct from DC and order from a UK business with reasonable customer service

I have ordered with DC Shoes…

I have ordered with DC Shoes successfully before.

This order is a different experience. I had an email confirming that my shoes were delivered by DC shoes. The tracking number is with DPD but doesn't register with DPD. The shoes were not delivered. I was in the house all day.

I have been trying to contact DC shoes customer service for well over a week now and don't get replies. I just get automated emails telling me to reply otherwise my contact will be regarding as resolved.

Just want my trainers

DPD says my trainers have been delivered, but they haven't. No response from customer service and I think my only option will be to contact my bank. I'm inundated with emails about their sale, maybe they should work more on dealing with all of us who haven't received our orders.

3 weeks after order placed and my shoes…

3 weeks after order placed and my shoes have not yet been delivered, the only response I’ve received from DC Shoes is an automated reply and have been ignored since. At this point I’d rather have a refund and take my business elsewhere

Apparently my shoes have arrived but I…

Apparently my shoes have arrived but I haven't, I've been trying to get an answer to this and have had no response only from an AI. My money's been taken really annoyed by this service and demand my money back and compensation for my time chasing for an answer!!!

Poor customer service and no delivery

Poor customer service. Order has not been delivered yet and the tracking details they have sent are wrong and do not relate to the delivery company they suggest. They will not respond to my emails or enquiries and when I try to ring their offices are always shut. I will have to contact my bank to reclaim my money as DC Shoes will not respond. Avoid.

You have not delivered my order

You have not delivered my order. You have failed to reply to my numerous messages.
Looking at your facebook page many other people are experiencing similar issues.
I have been buying from you for nearly 15 years. Never again.

Disgusting company

Disgusting company.
Just like all the other reviews … DPD says delivered… but no shoes. No one returns your emails. I’ve had to get a refund from my credit card company.

I had thought DC would be better....

Ordered products on 29th May, have yet to receive them and it is now 13th June.

Contacted customer support, told they could be up to 10 days, sent me tracking reference that doesn't exist.

Truly awful service, will I buy direct from DC again? Absolutely NOT.
