“Nightmare in every way. First, my item was sent internationally from Germany to the UK with literally NO packaging at all. Just loose in the cardboard box. No bubble wrap, packing foam or anything at all. So unsurprisingly the item was very damaged. I raised this, sent pictures and they agreed it had been damaged in transit. By this point we are over a week and a half from when I placed the order. They then tell me they will send a replacement only when I have returned the damaged one, they have received, processed and checked it. Only then will they bother to send out a new one - despite the fact it was their fault not mine. So I explained that would be too long to wait as I had an electrician booked to install the light and by the time I get the new one it would be around a month after my original order date. I send back the damaged item, 2 weeks later I receive an email saying they are sending out a replacement!! I email to let them know this is not correct and I wanted a refund and they are now saying they will only refund me once I have waited for them to deliver this new item, then sent it back to them internationally, waited for them to process and check it. This is now a 3 month ordeal - and meanwhile I got a better quality light fitted for the same price in the time this has all taken and I still don't have my money. AVOID”

“A company that will contravene UK trading standards by false advertising - advertising a light with remote and then no remote control is provided. They even stated they would send it so I asked my electrician to add the light. Now I am stuck - they won't confirm they will pay for the work to take old light down / add new light on and they won't even send a replacement. The solution they provided: flicking light switch on and off quickly (like a strobe affect) will act as a dimmer. Frankly bizarre - this will just cause (a) Risk of short circuiting (b) Additional wear and tear to the light switch. ( c) Dangerous strobing affect”

“I ordered two ceiling fans. One of them worked perfectly but the other one didn't, so I called to arrange a return of the product and I ordered a replacement fan from them later that day. So far, so good. Sometimes products aren't perfect but as long as the refund process is straightforward it isn't a major drama. Today, I recieved an email telling me that my return had been recieved but the email seemed to imply that I woudl be getting a refund or a replacement item. I called two minutes after I recieved the email, to confirm that I needed a refund and not a replacement. I was told that the replacement was already in their packaging area, so they would have to send it out to me and then I would have to call back to get a postage label and then I would have to ship the product back to them. I asked if they could just stop the shipment and not send me the fan but I was told this wasn't possible. I asked if they could just call down to their warehouse, and ask them to not ship the product to me, but again I was told that this was not possible. If the fan had already been dispatched, I could understand their position but when it is sitting in their own warehouse and hasn't even been packaged, there has to be something fundamentally wrong with their systems for them not to be able to stop someone from packaging it and sending it to me. It feels like a massive waste of time and resources on all sides.”

“Selling items that are not in stock We ordered lights for our bar Paid for them on order Then email telling us not in stock would have to wait 6/8 weeks for item to be sent. So rang and cancelled order they said refund could take a week Nothing came back 4 phone calls later we were told each time money hasn’t been taken we would have to ring bank it the banks fault !!!! So we did the bank said this company hasn’t realised the order so until they do they could still take money We haven’t got any further with our phone calls and still haven’t got our money back. This company are selling products that are not in stock and holding your money. Do not buy from this company”

“The light delivered broke as soon as I tried to put it together on the 18th October. I immediately informed lights.co.uk. They informed me they would arrange for pick up and provide a replacement. The light was finally picked up 2.5 weeks later on the 8th November 2023. I waited and waited and on the 22nd November requested a refund. I am now being ignored and not being refunded. These guys are a con. Don't buy from them.”

“Placed an order for a light, over 1 week later, no delivery or update from Lights.co.uk. Logged into my account and the order status said 'it had not been despatched'. Tried to call 4 times and got cut off every single time. Worst company I have dealt with for a long time - STAY CLEAR. I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. Have no emailed asking for the order to be cancelled (I have little faith in getting a response/answer).”

“DO NOT BUY ....... worse company every their delivery partners are worse then any thing the costumer service is not worth the hassle....... Took the money now refusing to give back any money believing DPD over our words. Was told that it would be delivered on Friday was told no one was at home when i was working from home when called was told that delivery companies skips some deliver due to timings but had said that they tried to deliver. i rather spend more and get good costumer service there have also been times where they have just put the phone down and no one higher to talk to ....... Rubbish company be very careful. i would not trust them at all.”

“Ordered a light at £179. After 6 weeks I was given a delivery date and told the item was finally in stock. I did notice the item online had a price increase to £369 when suddenly there was a “computer error” and my order was mysteriously cancelled and they claimed they could do nothing about it! Absolute scam. Don’t believe the prices online, and avoid at all costs. They never answer the phone and clearly don’t honour contracts.”

“Terrible company. They are NOT a uk based company despite the .co.uk website..my order has finally arrived with all the shades missing and now when I ring the line just rings out and goes dead. I thought I had researched them before placing an order but it looks like they are very good at hiding their thousands and thousands of bad reviews..I just wish I had dug a little deeper. Please avoid if you value your sanity.”

“Ordered a light for £212, so it qualifies for free delivery. The light has a European plug so they provide an adaptor. They have sent an email saying the order has been processed and dispatched from their warehouse. I have called them twice, seems like a 1 man band. He has said that the light has not left the warehouse and was laughing at me in the phone. He is German and sounds as though he is working from home from his bed. He doesn't really respond when you ask him a question. He compared lights.co.uk to Samsung saying that I cannot get in contact with the owner if the company as it is so big. I recieved an email from lights. Co. UK saying that the assignment number has been sent to DPD, but 1 week later there is no update, I think DPD being a large company would have things moving and would be updating their tracking info. The company are registered as co.uk but are based in Germany with an address in Goldsworth Road Woking Surrey. I have my doubts about this company as it is falsely advertisi g delivery times and their base. I would avoid them. The man Constantine who was laughing at the situation at lights. Co. UK got fed up of the conversation and said we can talk for 15 minutes or longer but it won't change the outcome, he then proceeded to say the line is bad, I cannot hear you and then cut me off. Very unprofessional, poor customer service falsely advertising do not use them just stick to a reputable UK based company.”

“Didnt despatch order in time and then got annoyed when I tried to chase - wouldn't give update and said the lights would be sent "shortly" after 2 weeks of waiting I wonder what they define as "shortly". The product is advertised as "in stock, delivery 7-11 days" I asked for an update and for them to be sent before the end of the week, and instead of an update I got an email saying they have cancelled the email with no explanation? Ive tried calling and the line just disconnects after ringing.”
