Terrible company and awful customer services - AVOID!!

Terrible company and awful customer services. I returned my purchase and have now been waiting 18 days for a refund. The seller does not respond to my emails. Have raised a complaint with not on the high street and they say I need to wait another 14 days for it to be issues!! Do not use, I have never had such a bad experience when purchasing something online.

No response at all

I ordered a gift for my partners 50th which should have been delivered by 16th feb. Still no response and seller and not on the high street are ignoring my messages. How can I get money back or receive it? Not sure what to do now and spent £25, on maternity leave so that's a lot of money for me to have wasted! No answer on phone number, no response on Facebook!

Lovely gift, poor customer service

The product was lovely and my friend loved the gift, once she knew who it was from. Unfortunately the gift note I wrote on the order was not in the package which spoiled the overall impact of the gift. I contacted NOTHS as they did not pass the gift message onto the seller. They have refused to acknowledge their mistake. I won’t use them again and will in future go direct to the seller to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

Watch out for £10 'membership' trap

They took an additional £10 from my account for a 'membership' that I didn't ask for. Now they are not responding to my request to cancel it and refund the money. It feels like a scam. Also, I need to return the item but they have not got back to me to say how - I have tried contacting the seller direct but so far no reply. Will stay well away in future.

Poor service, seller and customer service not responding to missing item

Very poor service. I ordered an item mid January for Valentine’s Day. The order never arrived. I contacted the seller and no reply. Eventually they got back to me and said that they would send another out. Nothing. I contacted not on the high street and so far no reply. Will not use them again after this

Useless

Ordered an item for a specific delivery date. Received no email updates, but when I checked online it had been “delayed” with no new date expected. I emailed to cancel as it wasn’t going to arrive in time. 2 days later it was marked as posted anyway. Nearly a week later it still hasn’t arrived 🤷‍♂️

No way of getting a refund until it does and I go through the hassle of returning it

Used to be amazing but too many issues lately

Used to be amazing and my go to for gifts (over 30 past purchases from them) but last few orders have had issues. Mainly from not meeting delivery schedules or supposed tracked parcels that are not trackable, but still frustrating and disappointing. Have been left waiting for stuff far longer than the dates they quote on ordering and with no way of knowing if they are on their way. As a lot of the stuff I order is personalised I am left with the option of just waiting it out (and not having a gift to take on the date required) or buying a last minute replacement gift and then trying to return something that has been personalised that is of no use to us as it is too late to give. Both unacceptable options. I am unlikely to use them again.
