“Scammers! AVOID! All the negative reviews here are true. These people are scammers. AVOID BUYING FROM THEM. After we received our order (late) all the boxes were wet and the products were damaged. It took them over a week to collect the damaged items after days of fake collection arrangements via email and so much time wasted over the phone. When the replacement finally arrived, it was also damaged! We've now been trying to get them replaced or get some sort of partial refund for OVER A MONTH! So we're now stuck with a damaged bed and bedside tables and no reasonable solution has been offered. Disgusting. AVOID!!”

“Ordered a Cricut machine online with an extra’s package. They processed the order and took the money. Then they emailed to say it was out of stock and I could have a refund. I checked their website and they had added about £60 to the price and had them showing as in stock. Spoke to customer service ( there’s a joke). They said I had an old browser - how thick is that. Pointed out that they were talking rubbish and they just went missing, 10 minutes later someone else came to us offering to process a refund of the difference if I re purchased at the higher price - do you really think we’re as daft as your untrained customer service people??? P.s. I’ve been in customer service for 40 years and know this is a great way to lose customers.”

“I work around piccadilly I went to sent my post special delivery. I wanted help, actually the assistant made me do the job while he giving me orders. I was completely shocked about their Customer service. God knows whether my post will be delivered or not, let me say discriminative assistant.”

“Excellent customer service in Coventry store. Ordered 200 pages at the last minute on Sunday for a presentation on Monday. Both Vidya and Zoe were very helpful. They both managed to finish the job even though they had to stay late approx 30-45mins . All neatly organised . Can't thank them enough. Thank you ladies you saved my day.”

“The staff in ryman stationery strand branch are not friendly. Except for that Dhl guy at the back the other short guy and lady are not so welcoming to customers. Please don't be crossed if tourists asked where to buy stamps and stationery items, we were new in London, you guys should help at least. Would definitely not recommend to anyone. Please be kind and helpful next time.”

“I bought a Cricut Maker 3 from them (£409). 3 weeks later they still haven't processed the order. I asked for an update on where it was and they said they were going to ask the supplier, but they won't get an answer for 3 days. Thinking I was doing well, buying a birthday present early, resulted in having to go elsewhere buying it again (essentially paying twice!!) The only good thing they did was say they were refunding my money straight away....... that said, its not come through yet. Definitely not worth the trouble”

“Appauling!! Is the only word to describe this company and its customer service. Ordered a garden shed at the end of May. Waited 7 weeks for it to be delivered. Delivery arrived and it was the wrong product so had to send it back with the delivery driver. This was 4 weeks ago. I am still waiting for my item to be dispatched whilst they attempt to sort out their error with their suppliers. They are very hard to get hold of and I seem to be fobbed off everything I send them an email. I would not recommend purchasing from this retailer, it's just too stressful !!”

“I ordered and paid for a Wacom 16 Graphic tablet and was told it would be here on the following Monday. Started getting concerned on Monday night as I hadn't received it and I also hadn't gotten an email to say it had even been shipped. Tried several times to get in touch with someone without success. The "Live Chat" is no such thing. It's automated and useless. There is no contact number either. After several attempts on the "Live Chat" and then emailing several times I STILL haven't heard back. It's now way past the delivery date. No one is calling me back. No one is emailing me. I've spent over £500 and have nothing to show for it. I then went on to look at reviews for the website and I WISH I had done that before ordering because they have awful reviews! I would never have used them had I seen all of the poor customer services and missing delivery reviews and comments. I'm absolutely gutted.”

“Extremely poor service. Can't actually speak to a person and although delivery was supposed to be a week ago I have heard nothing and it still says processing. The automated chat is less than helpful and although they have been contacted 3 times they have yet to get back to me.”

“Though I came near closing time at 5 oclock at their windsor store yesterday. The staff was least helpful, Pathetic customer service, no discounts offered as they advertise, staff of two were in more hurry to close the store rather than helping potential customers purchase stationary. Some of the customers were refused to even enter the store. I finalised my order and had to leave without it because the staff was rushing to close the shop. The tall boy even threatened to call the police if I dont leave instantly, and Couldnt answer simple questions on How I could pay and get my order. Poor service ! Never coming back. I will be reporting that poor customer service standards of your store to to the Trading Standards officer tomorrow. Also if my complaint is not resolved legal action will be taken.”

“Impossible to get hold of anyone. Their "customer service" chat is automated, hard to navigate around and impossible to speak to an actual human. I wish I knew this before emy purchase, I'd have paid more for a better known company. Never again”

“I placed an order for a chair 10 days ago which I was advised would arrive on the 1st of June - I took a day off work so that I could be in for delivery. I had received no updates on where the delivery was after I placed to order. The chair never arrived on the 1st so I called Rymans on the 2nd to investigate. After being on hold for over 30 minutes I finally got through to Darren who didn't seem at all interested in my issue (until right at the end when I said I was going to make a formal complaint and he unsurprisingly changed his tune). He advised it was Yodel who were delivering the chair - NO ONE had told me that and I had had no communication from Yodel. Apparently they attempted delivery 3 times last week but "could not access the property" - I live in a flat in central London, it's not hard. No card had been left and now Yodel have said I need to go and collect it from the Depot. Rymans have been completely unhelpful and said that it is not their problem and it's their supplier who the issue is with but it IS Rymans problem because I ordered from their website and it's up to them to liaise better with their suppliers. I am now left with no chair and no option but to collect it from the Depot (it will be very heavy and I don't have a car so will be an expensive taxi ride). Really just wishing I had NEVER ordered from Rymans and I certainly never will again and will advise everyone I know to avoid at all costs. Completely unhelpful as per usual.”

“I ordered two items on Sunday it was not made clear it would not be delivered until Tuesday as it said order before 4pm and delivered next day which we did and paid extra for next day delivery. They now say it will not be delivered until Tuesday. I could have picked it up from our local town on Monday as the item was required on Monday. I don't like paying for things I don't get. Will not use Ryman again.”

“I ordered 2 bookcases online 7 March. The order was meant to be delivered on 19 March. 1 bookcase came eventually on 23 March and it was damaged. The other bookcase never arrived. There's no telephone number. I've emailed and emailed and emailed Ryman about the damaged bookcase and XDP have still not collected the damaged bookcase. I need a refund. Writing to Ryman and XDP for a collection EVERY WEEK and its draining and adding to my mental health. It's been 6 weeks and I'm still waiting for a collection. This is the worst experience every. Don't EVER order from Rymans.”

“Ordered a printer on 3rd April. Faulty, so arranged for a return / refund and bought a replacement (the same printer). Faulty again (exactly the same fault. Despite dozens of contacts via "virtual assistant", emails & phone calls, could not get Rymans to collect (and thus issue refunds) Eventually Rymans collected both on 27th April. However, only one refund issued. Despite many more further "virtual assistant" messages, emails and phone calls, I'm still waiting for a £183 refund for the first printer. Rymans are a nightmare to deal with. I will NEVER purchase from them again.”
