I was thoroughly disappointed with the poor service I received from I Hate Ironing. I gave them a pair of designer jeans to be hemmed, with explicit instructions to maintain the original distressed hem style. However, when they delivered my order, the jeans had been altered with a basic straight hem rather than keeping the more original hem. Also, they lost the laundry bag I had given to them with my laundry. I also found the staff to be devoid of any customer service skills. When I pointed out the issues with my clothing items and missing bag, they gave no apologies or concern. Considering the high prices they charge for simple clothing alterations and dry cleaning services, I expect far better care, professionalism and quality results. Sadly, I Hate Ironing failed enormously on all counts. I cannot recommend them if you have any specialty or valuable items you want properly handled and returned to you. For the outrageous prices they charge, you deserve better service and less damaged goods than I received. I will not be using them again.

DO NOT USE - absolutely the worst service. They didn't deliver me my shoes and my ski jacket back for a total value £1,400 and the customer service has been totally useless in trying to sort out the issue. I'm going on a ski tri in 3 days, I'm on the phone with them for 2 days (5+ calls made) already and they either IGNORE or LIE to me. When I realised that some of my items are missing, I gave them a call and they said that they couldn't retrieve my shoes from a special service on time, so they will deliver them the next day. No information on the ski jacket. I had to call them back after 3 hours (although they promised to call back straight away) and they said that the jacket needed more time to dry so it should be with me together with the shoes the next day. Okay, why was I not informed of that before I find out that my belongings are missing and have to call them? These things happen and I don't mind waiting an extra day but the attitude is unacceptable. IN AN HOUR, I receive an email that my ski jacket will be delivered in 3 WEEKS. Obviously, something happened and they lied that it needed more time to dry. They also keep calling my ski jacket a leather jacket although I've said 5 times, both via email and on the phone, that it is not a leather jacket. Are we even talking about the same item??? I demanded that my items must be returned no matter what their conditions are ASAP. In return, they send me emails that they are checking when my items can be ready. This is ridiculous. I'm still left without my clothes for my upcoming trip. I've spent hours on trying to get an answer from them and they just don't care. Also, they did not return my original hangers and they did not give you their bags that you can re-use. It's all a lie.

The service has been extremely efficient and reliable and of very good quality. I have had no hesitation in strongly recommending it to others.

ihateironing ruined my jeans the whole colour came off. I have washed the jeans before and nothing happened, it was clearly their fault using hard chemicals and mixing it with other garments. They re-collected the damaged jeans for so called "examination" and they CHARGED ME for this?! unbelievably disgusting company.

Quality of service is generally good although there have been issues with failed collections and deliveries.

My clothing was collected by an I hate ironing staff member over a week ago and then never seen again. I initially was told by text that the driver was looking for me but had to leave, and that the items had not been collected, so I rearranged collection the next day. I got the same (clearly automated) text the next day. I then realized that something had gone wrong. I have had to send five emails, make several phone calls, and wasted far too much time trying to retrieve my belongings. IHI insist that their driver never collected the items, even though I have CCTV footage of him taking the items and dropping them into his car. I will never use this service again. They have wasted so much of my time deflecting blame, and failing to help, I wouldn’t normally air my dirty laundry in public but have no alternative but to complain through a public forum as they are refusing to look for my items.

My 98 year old Mum relies on this service and it is always efficient, prompt, courteous and helpful. A massive help in her life.

I think it depends on which franchise is in your area. Ours is fine but not 5 star. A friend of mine who uses the same people as I do has had quite a lot of issues. I’ve had problems with sweaters one of which recently was obviously washed rather than dry cleaned meaning the red stripes ran into the white turning it pink! They took it back and tried to improve it and it was a tad better but the white is still pink. The service is good and the sheets are washed well but the ironing is pretty bad - most of the time. Having said that it is a good service.

This company had lost 1 of my newly bought MaxMara coat (worths £2000), one Joseph jacket (cost over £400) and one tailor made cashmere coat which was a gift from my late grandmother to my mother, which costs over £1000. After back and forths, this company only willing to compensate £500. 1. I placed order to clean 3 items in July, the driver failed to deliver,- he simply rang the door bell and walked off within a minute..I called the customer service multiple times straight away, and also emailed, but they weren't able to respond to me. 2.For nearly 3 months, I tried to call the customer service almost three times every week, and I have never had anyone picking up the phone. I have record, happy to share upon request. 3. I was able to get in touch with the customer service nearly two weeks. They advised the order will be delivered to me, and I had waited at home two times and the driver did not show up. 4. I was able to reach Suleiman from the customer service, and he let me know they this company had lost my clothes. I provided my receipt and documentation of purchases as requested ( happy to publish email exchanges if anyone wants to see). After all these inconvenience, I was told that this company will only compensate £500, which is less than 20% of the value of all the clothes I have lost. My family have been loyal customers since 2017, it is such a disgrace to see what a farce this company had turned into. Please avoid, and stay away. I will be sharing my reviews on other platforms too. If you want to know more, do let me know.

I used them for the first time based on the positive customer reviews (so independent of my experience, they appear to be doing something right). I required 3 sets of curtains to be cleaned, which they confirmed would take 3 days and charged me £800. It eventually took 1 month, numerous last minute cancellations from them, and no compensation offered for all the inconvenience incurred (not least having no curtains for a month). The curtains didn't come back sparkling clean either (albeit hard to know how much this is just hard to remove stains in fairness). I'm certainly not a customer who would either recommend or use the service again.
