Had an issue with a Christmas delivery that was lost, I emailed and Conor Graham got in touch with me and got my nieces Christmas presents delivered to her in time. He is our Christmas angel! Thank you so much Conor!
If I could give 0 I would
If I could give 0 I would. First delivery ordered on 9th for Christmas and still not arrived they sent another on 16th apparently next day delivery (1-3 days) guess what that one has gone missing too! Will be reporting them to trading standards as I do not believe they have sent any of them and are just scamming customers out of money - fraudulent overpriced rip off customer service is non existent
Absolute rubbish organisation
Absolute rubbish organisation, Evri lost my parcel twice, customer service are liars and total idiots reading from a script from a foreign country.
Seriously these people haven’t got a clue, ordered from eBay instead
Do not order online from Smiggle
Do not order online from Smiggle, they use Evri (Every delivery is lost), the worst delivery company in the UK. Ordered goods 2 weeks ago, nothing received and they dont care that its Christmas. Customer service just read form a script knowing they are are not being truthful when saying the order is on its way and will be delivered. Great shops and product, should not sell online unless they switch to DPD for deliveries.
Simply appalling / rude
Simply appalling - rude staffs - ill mannered.
Enfield shop, afternoon trip on 15 Dec 2024. Absolutely no chance of me going there again. Not recommended at all.
Very appalling customer service
Very appalling customer service. I should have come to read the reviews here before ordering from them. They don’t apologize for their mistakes and clearly don’t care what anyone is saying about them. Just a matter of time before they go under.
All for Laura
I have been in contact with Laura at Smiggle who has been an absolute star. A parcel has been lost/ missing/misplaced by a delivery company who gave every excuse and false promises with regards to delivery. I finally contacted Laura at Smiggle Customer Service and as soon as I emailed she was right on the case and came up with a couple of options.
I can't thank LAURA enough.
Smiggle you have a superstar working for your company and hope you really appreciate her. 🤩🤩🤩👏
Smiggle Hull went above and beyond
Had a great experience at Smiggle Hull. Didn't have a rucksack my daughter was after for Christmas. There wasn't going to be any further stock of it either. The lady in store was so helpful and managed to find one in a different store and it got brought to the Hull store for me to collect. Staff went above and beyond.
Fab service
Such lovely items at brilliant prices. I was really impressed with the super quick delivery, despite the black friday rush!
Super stocking fillers, my children will be so excited.
Don't bother with these rude
Don't bother with these rude, child like pip squeeks. Couldn't organise a lay in a brothel. I never received any items and I was told it was my fault due to my address being wrong. No it wasn't,evri didn't even attempt to deliver it. There merchandise looks good but there service is woeful. They all sound like kids with chips on there shoulder passing the blame about instead of listening to what is going on. I will never use this company again and I do not believe it will trade much longer.
I can’t believe how good the quality of…
I can’t believe how good the quality of the products are and i paid half price for most of them. Everything came well packaged and within 3 days of ordering.
I am very impressed with the products.
Don’t buy from this place
If I could put a minus I would . Parcel delivered not once but twice.
I’ve tried to contact more times than 20 times they could not care less. Keep telling the form promising I’ve not received it.
And I can’t believe they’re so bad. If it wasn’t for the fact for someone I love wants these products I would cancel the order, I’ve asked they pass it on to a manager but I’ve asked before no luck
Worst school bag ever I bought .
Worst school bag ever I bought .. was so expensive. My daughter was in kindergarten and used it for two months only. I bought it from the Emirates from Borders bookstore. So it is original .
Absolutely awful experience.
Absolutely awful experience.
I recived my order with half the items missing, had to email and await replacement items to be sent out only for it to be missing an item again.
This is absolutely ridiculous and I'll never buy anything from Smiggle again.
Worst bottles ever
Worst bottles ever! Don’t waste your money! I bought a panda purple one with the spray and it broke in a day of my young daughter having it! I contacted customer service and got told they drop test all the bottles. I sent an email with pictures and they said they are not going to replace it! The Bottle dropped on carpet! Left tiny sharp bits of plastic around the place… The lady then lied saying there is no negative feedback on these bottles. So I searched Trustpilot while on the phone!!!
She said I read those but I don’t trust the reviews on there or on the internet!! Oh ok!!
I then received an awful email stating they would not be replacing it again! As with certain fluids in it they can break when dropped!!! It’s a children’s bottle with noooo durability….. Awaiting a call from a manager!! Please don’t spend your well earned hard money on Smiggle!!!!! Not worth it at all!! Awful customer services
Do not purchase from Smiggle
This is the second time I have purchased from Smiggle. I wish I would have checked the reviews first.
The first order came in a badly damaged box, however the items were not damaged inside and I put this down to a one off.
The next order I placed was for some Christmas presents. Again the box came damaged and very flimsy. There was also 2 items missing from the delivery, due to the state the box was in, this could have been due to them not being placed there in the first place or being removed / fallen out. I thought this would have been easily rectified by Smiggle, boy was I wrong. Nearly 3 weeks later and the issue still not resolved. I purchased the items on PayPal pay in 3, so I have made a complaint to PayPal to withhold the remainder of the payment. Initially I received communication asking for photo’s of the tracking details, box etc which I had. Since sending this information at the end of October it has been total radio silence from them.
Expensive, easily breakable tat
Bought bottle from store. Broke within the week. Took time out to go back to the store - would have liked a refund but no proof of purchase so we got a replacement, somewhat sturdier bottle. Broke within the week. We're now taking this as a £25 lesson in never getting smiggle stuff again.
If i could rate 0* i would!
If i could rate 0* i would! First time buying from smiggle, should have checked the reviews first but won't be buying from them again!
Cheaply made products, backpack zip broke on day 4 of use, backpack is now unable to be used after only 6 weeks of use! AVOID BRAND AT ALL COSTS!
Beware - don’t use PayPal when purchasing online
I purchased my order online via PayPal and spent almost £200. I had a couple of things that I wanted to return and as they were quite bulky items I thought it might be easier to return them to the store (Norwich 18/10/24 at 10.15am). How wrong was I?! The shop doesn’t offer refunds if you purchase via PayPal. They are happy to receive transactions via PayPal but cannot offer refunds via PayPal - how unethical is that?! I wasn’t aware of this policy at the time of making my online purchase and I certainly didn’t see anything warning me about it when I processed payment.
Now, I consider myself a patient and friendly person but the lady behind the counter was so obstinate, unapologetic and with zero customer service skills that she was, quite frankly, getting on my nerves. I did well to remain civil with her. I said I would happily accept a gift card instead of a refund but she immediately said I couldn’t have that either as it was against company policy!!! At this point I asked to speak to the manager as I knew what she was telling me wasn’t right, but she said she was the manager! Having worked within Consumer Direct, I have knowledge of what my consumer rights are and I told her that she couldn’t refuse me a gift card. If she was the manager then surely she should know this, right? (I was too polite to point this out to her). She then started reading through Smiggles’ policy booklet at the side of the till which was taking absolutely ages. Feeling totally flabbergasted, I took my phone out of my pocket and decided to look the information up myself on Smiggles website to prove to her that I was in fact entitled to a gift card. I showed her my phone and she then issued me a gift voucher, all while remaining as obstinate as she could (obviously trying to save face). I do not appreciate this treatment when simply returning a couple of items from my order, something that is so quick and easy to do in other shops. I envisage this company will go out of business soon, especially if it continues to employ useless “managers” that have such little knowledge of customer service, the companies own policies or even basic statutory rights.

Bought a few things for my daughter and when they arrived the case was broken. I emailed customer service and 3-4 weeks later still no reply but I receive constant spam emails from them. I will never ever buy this rubbish brand again.
