The light illuminates for less then an hour. I need to keep switching it on and off to get it started.

Hello Eilam, we are sorry that the light is faulty. Once switched to the "on" position the lights should illuminate and it sounds like a faulty switch. We will send a replacement to you with our compliments. With kind regards, Lisa, Lights4fun

Thank you for leaving your review regarding the 3 transformers you purchased on 19 December. I am sorry that you were not able to illuminate whatever you hoped to with these transformers. I am obviously unaware of the lighting products you have, but it may be that it was simply a case of none of them being compatible with your items. I appreciate your disappointment, for which I am very sorry. However, I have just tried to call you as I am sure you can appreciate how upsetting it is for us to receive such a poor review. I would like to reassure you that we are not “con artists”, particularly given the outstanding other reviews that we receive on a daily basis. I would have welcomed the opportunity to apologise to you personally, but unfortunately I was unlucky when I called. I am sure you are very busy with work, so please accept my apologies for the missed call. I rang to also mention that I have refunded your entire order value, and there is no need to return the transformers to us if you still have them. Kindest regards, Jo

Bought a plug that didnt work. Asked for a replacement and was told their plugs were only guaranteed to work with products bought from them. The product was a "universal" transformer. So "universal" doesnt mean much.

Hello Damian, thank you for your review and we are sorry to learn of your disappointment. The indoor transformer that you purchased is designed to work with our Glass Fairy Light Orbs and will not fit any other product. This is detailed in the product details on the website, the word "universal" is used in the product description and we will review this with our web team. I will be in touch with you personally to resolve. With kind regards, Lisa, Lights4fun

I haven't received either sets of lights that I ordered even though I corresponded with you twice by phone to tell you the address was wrong. Somebody even confirmed the right address with me. Very dissapointed.

Dear Alison, Thank you for your time on the phone just now.I am very sorry that the second order did not arrive, even though it was sent to the revised address, rather than your PayPal primary address. As promised, I have sent a replacement order today by first class tracked post. We will refund you as soon as the original order arrives back with us, which I anticipate will be in a couple of weeks. Thank you so much for your patience. Kindest regards, Jo.

Dear Andrew, I am sorry that this happened; I can see that you ordered on the website, and I have just tried to ring you to ask if we sent the wrong item in error, but it seems to be a wrong number listed on the order. I am also sorry to hear that you never heard from us; we do respond to all emails so I am afraid I don't quite know what happened. Perhaps it would be best to have a brief conversation to sort this out so that you are happy? My number is 01423816040. Thank you so much. Kindest regards, Jo

I ordered 2x 100 white LED Solar Fairy Lights and have installed them...had them turned off as advised- (for about 3 days as we had little sun)....turned them on to find that they fade and go out after a few minutes.....have tried to phone the number it suggests on the email...office closed for Christmas (understand absolutely why people need time off) but Christmas lights are not on for me this year...by the time Wednesday comes and offices open-it wont be Christmas.

Dear Frances, Thank you for your review. I am sorry that your solar lights did not illuminate, as you say there has been little sun. Unfortunately, they cannot be relied upon for a display on Christmas Day as the weather will dictate that! They will work perfectly once the sun does shine for a period of time, long enough to charge the solar battery within the panel. I understand your disappointment. If there is no power available, battery lights are an excellent option but I appreciate Christmas is over now. I am sorry for your disappointment. Kindest regards, Jo

I paid for my lights but they were never sent and then were out of stock when I followed it up. Really disappointing unfortunately.

Hi Rachel, I am so sorry this delivery did not go smoothly. I have checked the order and I can see that while we did despatch on time, unfortunately the parcel was lost by Royal Mail and at which point we had sold out of the item. We have refunded you for the order in full for you with our sincerest apologies. Best wishes, Zoe Lights4fun

The lights are solar lights. BUT surprise they have batteries. I have had to replace the battery. They lasted one evening and you have to go out and switch them off! I have had an excellent solar light string (from Homebase)- comes on every evening - charging by the sunlight - for over a year - I thought I was buying more of the same. All your lights have failed. I did NOT want to have a battery. Its a scam.

Hello Mrs Wadham, thank you for your review and for your time on the phone this morning. We are sorry that your solar lights are not illuminating; I can confirm that all solar lights have a rechargeable battery inside the unit to store the power. Our solar lights are designed for use in Spring and Summer as to be completely honest in Winter with very short days and no sun they will not charge as efficiently. We are truly sorry that you are so disappointed and I am pleased that we were able to resolve this in person today. With thanks and kind regards, Lisa, Lights4fun

Couldn't have gone more wrong. I recommend not buying from this supplier. I paid for next-day delivery, the parcel was returned and the purchase cancelled. I got a refund but without VAT and shipping. I ended up paying 25% of the total price for nothing.

Hello Federico, thank you for your review. I can see that you placed your order with us at 4.43pm on Thursday 8 December which is after our 4pm cut-off time for guaranteed next working day delivery. Your order was despatched from our warehouse on Friday 9 December and went out for delivery on the next available working day, Monday 12 December. Your order has been returned to us and we have refunded you in full, (including VAT and your original p&p shipping charge). I am sorry for any confusion, we are as disappointed as you are that the lights arrived too late for you to use them at your planned event and hope to welcome you back to Lights4fun in the near future. With kind regards, Lisa, Lights4fun

Replacement bulbs for our 25 year old set of Candle Lights had been discontinued so we needed a new set of Candle Lights ASAP. Lights4fun had available an LED Candle Light set at a good price,which we purchased.Delivery was very quick and the new lights on the tree now look really great and so much better than our old set.

I ordered two sets of mini lights, one set however was damaged and as a result do work, which was disappointing considering they were 8 pounds.

Hi Charlotte, Thank you for leaving a review. I am very sorry that one set of the £3.99 micro lights was broken, and I understand that this has been replaced. I appreciate it is a real nuisance when this happens, and I hope that the replacement arrives quickly. Kindest regards, Jo

I let them charge for 2 days before switching them on as the instructions say & they lasted roughly an hour. They weren't the brightest to begin with. Very disappointing & quite frankly a waste of money. Laughing stock of the neighbourhood. I'd be better with 240volt ones like the rest of my neighbours . I await your thoughts..

Hi Nicola, Thank you for your review. I am sorry that the solar lights are not illuminating; they usually work from the box as they will have a small amount of charge from the factory, but to be completely honest in winter with very short days and no sun they will not charge. My advice would be to use battery operated lights if you have no power, or as you suggest plug in lights like your neighbours. I am sorry you are disappointed. Kindest regards, Jo

Very pretty lights but the plug was very temperamental. You kindly replaced them for us. The new set were perfect.
