“Was glad when it came back on but disappointed to c most of the old presenters not on there The fashion used to b great seeing real people wearing them rather than on a rail and not appealing to buy Please bring back the old show . Old presenters and better presentation of items Looking at reviews I think everyone would agree Sorry shows are not very good And some new presenters struggling to look professional and dragging out items running out of things to say Sorry”

“I thought I would give them a second chance. Surely they can’t sell stock they don’t have yet again ! How wrong was I. A sales pitch urging people not to miss out. As an early buyer I bought something they clearly hadn’t secured stock off. The business model is to secure your money and then stall on responding to emails in the hope they will get more stock eventually. I think this is a Trading Standards issue, but be warned and don’t be fooled by their desperation to secure your money. Customer Support will copy and paste text into an email. Zero support !!”

“The old IW was good to watch, with varied, appealing items. I did buy quite a few bargains. Now it is drab, the items look like clearance/old stock at exorbitant prices. Very disappointing. Cannot watch this rubbish any more. I do feel sorry for the presenters.”

“Was looking forward to the new Ideal World but what a disappointment, awful old fashioned cloths, the presenters spend to much time on one item till I am so bored listening to them I turn off not that I will be buying any of the fashion items, where are the old models , probably saw the fashion and decided to leave, very disappointing.”

“Hopeless. Oh dear the “new” Ideal World is beyond awful! I was a long time customer previously and bought many many items of fashion, electrical items etc. Now they sell boring old fashioned over-priced clothes with absolutely no style. The presenters ramble on & on & on for ages over ONE item be it a watch or a walking stick until boredom surely causes most viewers to switch off. I don’t even bother to tune in any more - it used to be a great shopping channel with interaction between the presenters and the models now it’s one model doing her best to rave over some truly awful expensive old fashioned item of clothing. There really is a limit on how many faux fur trimmed kimonos or watches or walking sticks a person needs!”

“Poor presenters who at times sound like market traders . Absolutely shocking studio filming . I’m sure a better quality could be achieved on a camera phone . Products look like the end of line and the studio sets look amateurish.”

“Ordered a flosser which didn’t arrive after 10 days, so o emailed the customer service. Once they eventually got back to me, they said that they had received my return and we’re going to refund my money…Which they did. Only thing is…I hadn’t received it, so who had opened my personal mail, to get the return label out…Then, I got another mail to say that my goods had gone missing in the post, so they were refunding me….Very strange. In between ordering the flosser, I also bought some mens aftershave…on the 26th of October. As of today…the 2nd November…it still hasn’t been despatched…I wouldn’t be surprised if it also went “missing”, and I get another refund. Not a patch on the old IW…in terms of products, which mostly appear to be cheap items, delivery….or communication. I doubt that I’ll be ordering anything else…Which is a shame.”

“I am so angry with this company. Since they went bust regular flexi payments have been going out of my account so I thought everything was ok. To my amazement I have received a letter from a Debt Recovery company claiming I owe Ideal World £41.40. This letter arrived on Saturday but I will be on the phone first thing Monday to try and sort out what is happening. I am never late with paymenys to anybody so am very annoyed. Will never buy anything From Ideal World again”

“My review is a positive one as I always manage to sort out any problems with my orders received prompt refunds and updates when orders are late arriving. Sorry to learn of the demise of the channel and hope it will eventually return 😃”

“Purchased sunglasses they arrived very poor quality £62.00 so I returned them via asda to you this was a week before they went into administration, they must have known they in were difficulties but carried on selling goods regardless,so I don't expect I'll see my refund. It's time something was done about companies still trading when they are in dire straits disgusting.”

“Returned a £100 item the same day they went into administration. No warning, nothing. Absolutely disgusting selling to customers when they must have known this was going to happen.”
