Being based in the EU, since Brexit I tend to avoid shopping from the UK (tax/VAT, costly returns etc). The website, however, said all taxes included, and in fact I wasn't charged with any import tax... See more

Cost me £10 to try on a pair of shoes!!!

Charged me nearly £10 to try on a pair of shoes. Paid £144.99 and was refunded £135.50 after returning. Prepare to be short changed if your items don't fit and they don't have stock in the next sizes.

The site claims "28-day try on period • Instant Returns via Swap" I feel this is misleading. The cost of delivery is not refunded and you get charged on top for returning the items. Feels a little behind the times when most other retailers offer free returns. If they had the next size up in stock I would have exchanged them, instead I bought them elsewhere. Contacted their customer services team but they were useless.

I won't shop here again now purely out of principle.

They are not trustworthy. Avoid them at all cost.

Seven days after I placed my order, they told me they had cancelled it because they had no stock. But that was clearly a lie because I saw they continued to sell the exact items with the exact sizes on their website but at a higher price! I suppose they didn't want to sell those to me at the price I ordered. They didn't reply to my queries asking for further explanation. They are not trustworthy.

Great customer service

I had to return an item and through my own stupidity I didn't read the returns policy properly but Millie sorted out the problem kindly and professionally. I will continue to use Urban as they have great deals and delivery is spot on and excellent customer service

Refund

Was nervous about returning an item after reading some of the other comments. But my experience was a good one. The follow up emails were really polite and prompt. And the refund arrived within 5 days.

Excellent Service from Urban Excess

Service from Urban Excess was outstanding. The service from DPD not so good but that’s another story. Worth mentioning that Urban Excess dispatched the jacket on the day of order and did what they could to resolve the delivery problem. As for the jacket… I love it. A fine piece of French workwear

Impossible to return anything

Do not buy from this company. They dont know what "customer service" means. Deliveries are late. Then if you try and return something they make it impossible. it took me 3 months to return a jumper. their return address does not exist. you have to pay for your own returns. they dont even compensate you when they refuse packages. and they still refunded me the wrong amount. they take about a week to respond to any email. horrible service.

Great service

Great service, fast delivery. I love the Stetson Hatteras Newsboy Cap, it feels like I've always worn it.
Perfect fit as well. The retailer's site provided its circumference, which helped with my purchase decision.

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY. Item returned. Been over 4 weeks. Item received by Royal Mail. UE keep saying they haven't received it so can't process refund.

Shocking customer service!

Avoid

Avoid, bought boots were far too big as per their return policy did everything they asked for, they received the parcel had it for over two weeks ended up having to start a dispute with PayPal to get the money back, they stopped replying to my emails also when I asked if the refund was coming, won't be using them again or recommending

Great product and CS.

I bought two similar items, one of which had to be returned. Customer services were great when I contacted them to see if they had received it after a bit of a Royal Mail failure! They replied to my emails promptly and issued a refund.
I bought some Cahartt cargo pants which were great and my Grandson loved them.

Terrible Customer Service & Returns

Like the most recent reviews, I returned a product on 28/12/2023, was told the exchanged product would be dispatched last week and the told today that the product was now out of stock and I would receive a refund.

This whole fiasco has lasted nearly one month. The communication is shocking, there is no phone number and it takes days to receive an email response. I'd genuinely use this company with caution.

Great service

I used UE to buy some jackets in December. Goods delivered really quickly and after service to return an item used for sizing only was great.

DO NOT USE Absolutely terrible company

Absolutely terrible company. DO NOT BUY from them. Order returned on 3rd January and no communication. Now passed the 5-10 working days. Order value over £400. I will never use again. not acceptable to have no telephone customer support or at least better email communication. In this day and age, not the way to do business. AVOID AVOID AVOID

returns process has been a nightmare

absolute nightmare to deal with when trying to return items - everything from getting a returns slip in the first place, to lengthy processing times, to then wrongfully refunding me onto a gift card - would not shop again for fear of having to return something.
