Perfect customer service

I had wonderful service at this store and the staff were incredibly helpful without being at all pushy. They made the whole shopping experience very stress free and enjoyable. They were friendly and personable and went to great lengths to find me the perfect pair of trousers.

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service. Ordered a coat in the sale, quick delivery and well packaged. Beautiful wool blend long coat, received lots of compliments.
A few days later disappointed to find a further discount of 20% off sale items. Contacted customer service by their web chat and requested a price match, didn’t hear back from them after 10 days -so contacted them again today via their web chat. Their advisor Niamh quickly sorted out the refund for the price difference, no quibble, very pleased with the outcome.
Will shop at Whistles again and will recommend for excellent customer service.

I’m sorry to hear you initially didn’t receive a response regarding the further sale reduction, but I’m very glad that when you reached out again, Niamh was able to resolve the price difference quickly and without any hassle. We’ll make sure your kind feedback is passed on to her.
We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’re thrilled to know this positive outcome has left you feeling confident about continuing to shop with us. Thank you again for your lovely review — and for recommending us for excellent customer service.

Ordered a bag, didn’t receive what I ordered

Ordered a bag. After waiting for it to be shipped to Canada, paying taxes and fees, was sent a completely different bag. The one I actually ordered is sold out now. If this is what I can expect, I will NEVER buy anything from Whistles again.

GE11479342878GB

I can't even seem to get ahold of customer service to return the item as we don't have DHL where I live.
They also want to charge me $51.15 for the return on top of everything !!

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM WHISTLES IF YOU ARE IN CANADA !

As per the response below:
I have tried to contact your customer service department - it's REALLY difficult. No response, and you provided no alternative link.

Kay was great

Kay was great, and sorted it all for me. However, overall the Whistles experience wasn’t good. I kept having to email & when I didn’t get a reply I went on the live chat instead. Sadly I can’t shop in person anymore as my local branch (Ringwood) was closed down. Just not the same being able to try on & send to store.

Hi Louise.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

We’re so pleased to hear that Kay was able to sort everything out for you, we’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to her. That said, we’re genuinely sorry that the overall experience left you feeling disappointed. Having to chase for replies and switch to live chat isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we completely understand how frustrating that must have been.

We also appreciate how disappointing it is not to be able to shop in person since the closure of our Ringwood branch. Being able to try items on and use click & collect in store really does make a difference, and we know online shopping isn’t quite the same experience.

Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we’ll be sharing it with the wider team as we continue working to improve our service. Thank you again for your honesty, we truly appreciate your support.

Kind regards, Whistles Customer Care

I love going into the Ilkley store, the ladies there are always so helpful and it so nice to be able to go into a shop and look and feel the goods. So much nicer than just shopping via the internet. We need to support our local shops to keep our high streets.

The staff in Harrogate store are great . Never would’ve sourced the black barrel leg jeans without help as they weren’t the pair I thought would suit me . The jeans themselves are fab ,having no waist at all & very slim hips/thighs I struggle to find a fit but these higher waisted than previous try ons are perfect 👌

dress for a wedding…found it!

I was looking for a dress for a wedding and looking in many shops on the high street. The dress I tried on in Whistles was the first that made me feel comfortable wearing it. The fabric and make feels good quality and it drapes well.

Lovely sales lady in the Bromley store. Sorry didn’t get her name. It was like good old fashioned sales techniques. Not pushy, bought a couple of different styles to try, helped me on with the jackets. What’s not to love 👏🏻

Missing transport charge refund

I placed an order and asked for next day delivery.
Unfortunatley what I ordered was out of stock and a refund was issued. The next day delivery charge wasn't refunded. By using their easy to use web chat the transport charge was refunded and a good will gesture included. Well handled Molly!
