I had a bad experience with their online refunds. Hermes are great at picking up. However I am waiting for over 3 weeks on my monies. I emailed them several times on customer support and they are not responding. What do I do? Its really stressful

Been a loyal DP customer for decades with no issues but I have just received an email after 3 weeks of chasing a refund to say the items weren’t “returned in a suitable condition.” What a load of.... I didn’t even try on one pair of jeggings as the quality was so poor on the first pair. Packaged up and sent straight back. Hermes says “on way back to retailer”. Will just continue to bombard them on SD till they refund or show me evidence of how unopened jeggings can be deemed to be in an unsuitable condition. Tamping!!

So... it looks like I'm just one of many who have returned items and haven't received a refund . I sent my return on the 22 December via Hermes ( who are also shocking ..they have lost 2 other of my returns and one order from other companies) . Hermes have not updated tracking and seem to have lost my return . I won't be ordering from sites who use Hermes again either . I've emailed Dorothy Perkins 4 times and no further with my refund . You can't contact by phone either ..just email . Some companies use covid as an excuse for poor customer service ...looks like DP is one of them.

Very disappointed. I am still waiting on a refund for items returned on 4th December. Customer service is shocking, I have emailed and called numerous times with no luck.

The worst customer service imaginable! The shop delivers the wrong goods, but is not willing to pay the shipping costs for the return, even though it says so in the terms and conditions. Instead, despite repeated inquiries, no response will be given until the return period has expired. The "customer service" does not take care of it, sometimes one person writes this, then another that, as they like it. NEVER AGAIN!

Ordered a jumper online. It arrived quickly but I have never smelled anything like it. Its putrid and very poor quality. They cannot trace my order number so I went onto Hermes site to print off returns label to drop at local returns agent. The initial message said to contact customer service but no phone number. I have emailed and did get a delivery receipt. I don't feel I should pay for delivery as the item was not fit to wear. How they could send something out like that is beyond me. Never again and I hope my refund is quick.

My 28 days return right has been skiped to 5 days. I managed return only part of the order before lockdown, then when Dorothy Perkind reopened few months later I wasn't able to return rest of the order, as 45 days passed. I contacted Customer Care but had refusal with suggestion that full order should be retuned before lockdown. Very poor service not recpecting customers rights.

I ordered £80 worth of items and paid by Paypal and returned £20.25. DP say they've received the items and issued a refund. Paypal say nothing as been received and can't help me further it's outside their cover. Dp say they can't help me further? However how can this be when Dp still have my money? If they make this kind of money out of customers they'll be very rich no wonder they dont want to help.Rubbish customer service sent 10 emails and received robotic replies!! How can this be Be aware!!

I can't return an item I got on line as it's not letting you print a label. Also the stores aren't taking anything back. Tried phoning customer service to find its not available. I've sent an email not sure if I'll get a response. One thing for sure I won't be buying anything else from Dorothy Perkins.

Bought 2 outfits. Wanted to return the 1st one but couldn’t as only the 2nd recent order worked on online returns??? Site said should phone to get an order no. Phone line shut, can’t take it back to store, no one replying to emails. So can’t return the goods.Shambolic. It seems an intentional policy, to obstruct customers claiming refunds!

I ordered a dress on line on the 31st May. I requested to collect the dress from a Hermes store and it was delivered to my local Hermes store. However, I was charged £9.95 for unlimited delivery for a year. I do not want this service. I have sent two E mails requesting a refund and Dorothy Perkins has not responded to either of my E mails.

Why are Dorothy Perkins phone lines down? There’s no excuse for this even in this pandemic, a business of this size. I received a parcel I ordered a couple of weeks ago that had been tampered with! Items completely missing. Looks like the bag had either burst open because they crammed too much in or someone has intentionally opened it on route! I collected the bag from click and collect location to find it tied up at the bottom and rips and tape all over it! I’ve contacted customer service via email no response... even though they have a 2 day SLA on their reply! And now I can’t get through to them on the phone! Very poor service. I am waiting to return some of the items I did receive in that order but want to know what to do about the missing ones first as I’ve obviously paid for them. Appalling, someone needs to look at the service here. Employees can still maintain their employment and work from home answering calls and emails during this time to maintain social distancing instead of just getting no service whatsoever! What are DP thinking? Other companies are managing to do this just fine.

1 star is too many! Returned an item 30/4, they have closed their phone lines due to Covid (so they say), still waiting 16/06 for refund. Had a few replies to messages via Facebook but now they aren't even reading them. Owed a refund, they said it was processed 3/6 but it is sat "awaiting refund". They are ignoring every comment on their Facebook posts, I will not stop until I get my refund, it isn't much but it is the principle I am owed it. I WILL NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN!

Seems I'm not the only one utterly appalled by their service. I returned an item 7 weeks ago. No acknowledgement and no contact despite me messaging them via email, via the website, via their app and via twitter. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! They should not be offering an online shopping service if the can fulfill their responsibilities.

I ordered a couple of dresses which when received were not a good fit. I arranged a return via Hermes for collection on 15 May nobody arrived. I contacted customer services who arranged another return on 27 May again nobody arrived to collect. They were quick enough to take my money but are not so quick to organise a return and refund. Have contacted customer services via email again yesterday I’ll keep you updated. I understand the current situation but all other companies I have dealt with during this period have been extremely efficient. I am frankly disgusted by this level of customer service!!

Absolute scam. I'm amazed such a huge high street giant has got this bad. H. P. Newman is rolling in his grave. Ordered an item 2 weeks ago. It still says waiting to be dispatched. I was told that it was dispatched twice - both times I went to the store to collect and yep - the order hasn't arrived despite customer service telling me it was there. I was promised multiple callbacks, none of which ever happened. I was told it had been lost, cancelled, the lot. No evidence for any of their claims and the order has still not arrived. I have proof they have lied to me on several occasions about this order. I contacted the CEO of the Arcadia group - only for my email to be completely ignored. DP online is a total scam. They don't send the products you pay for, nor ever follow through with refunds. I truly hope they sort themselves out soon.
