“HOW UNRELIABLE! WOW, I have purchased a Sofa bed online when it showed that the specific item I ordered was available for 1-2 weeks delivery. Few days later, I check online for the tracking details and I don't see anything updated, so I take my time and call Next, and they tell me that the order Apparently has been canceled!!! I didnt get any notifications, no emails, nothing from them about that. If I didn't call and went out of my way, I wouldn't know that the order was canceled. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY! Especially the website as it shows items are available for the delivery but in reality they are totally our of stock. What a joke of the company I would never come and purchase from It ever again. If I could, I would give a 0.”

“Awful experience today in Next in Barnstaple Purchased clothes online using my credit card, then stupidly paid off the credit card straight away. Then I needed to return one of the items. Went to the shop and asked them to refund to a gift card. I worked in retail previously so knew this was a possibility. If you don’t have a receipt this is what they will often do! So had I of walked in without a receipt this probably would have been the likely outcome. Anyway, spent ages arguing back and forth about whether it would be possible. Manager comes down, confirms it is possible and then states he can’t do it as the worker had already selected the refund option and it had already been sent back to my credit card. This annoyed me because it would mean that I am now in credit on my credit card- bad for credit rating. So, it was possible all along but I was fobbed off and lied too. If the worker had acknowledged her error things may have felt a bit more ok, you can understand mistakes happen. But no acknowledgment, no sorry, I guess I’ll deal with the repercussions on my credit card and score.frustrated is an understatement.”

“ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTED, Ordered 2 sofas and an armchair all in the same colour and fabric, just arrived after 15 weeks, the armchair is a different colour and fabric to the sofas, ridiculous, now we’ve got to wait 12 weeks for a replacement armchair, shameful work by who ever is responsible, you need sacking.”

“Ordered Easter items for delivery Saturday 16 April for Easter family gathering on Sunday 17th. None of items were delivered and no notification to say they wouldn’t be delivered. Tracking still says items will be delivered Saturday! Received other items from other companies for goods ordered Friday 15th and all were received on time on Saturday 16th via Royal Mail, DPD and Amazon. If those companiescan all fulfil their orders why can’t Next? There is no excuse and Next should not be offering home delivery if it can’t fulfil its delivery requirements. This is not the first time we have been let down by Next home delivery.”

“This is a real shame that Next’s couriers are letting them down. They have built such a good brand which is sadly being damaged by Hermes’s constant issues. Yet another of my orders are late. Missed my daughters birthday. I use next because I have a busy family life so it was convenient. Now it causes me problems which I don’t have time to spend fixing by calling up. This should not happen. Two weeks later and order is still not here.”

“I ordered items from Next Online on next day delivery four days ago..I have no tracking number was just told the day later my order would take a couple of days longer. We are now on day three still no parcel and no update from Next and no tracking info. I have just been in touch with Next Chat Online to be advised my parcel was given to a courier who does not deliver to my address!!! So its now back to Next !! Well absolutely shocking customer service from a big company I was relying on the clothing for an important occasion today ...still no firm confirmation from Next as to when I will receive my items possibly Monday 5 days after submitting order not good enough!! & I understand no delivery on a Sunday but hey ho sort it out Next in the first place Next Day Delivery means next day!!! Still no tracking information either shocking...won't be using Next again ...I will shop else where.”

“I made an order for a perfume from Next which was sent by next day delivery. Unfortunately the only delivery option they offer is through Hermes Courier (which is usually problematic in my area and usually avoid them where possible). I received an email that it would be delivered by hermes and when i heard something being put into the letterbox i checked and saw a black jiffy envelope with "Next Beauty" on the opposite side had been posted. The jiffy was flat and i could tell immediately there was no box inside. I emailed Next straight away to let them know. Hermes had taken a photo as "proof" of delivery, with the flat jiffy hanging out of the letterbox, and it seems that Next has absolutely no interest in further investigating this. I am so angry that this is allowed to happen, i understand this is a difficult issue but i am an honest customer and have never caused any issues before. I don't know if it occurred at the Next warehouse (as the item i ordered is now out of stock which it hasn't been for the months that i have seen it on the website) or someone at the Hermes courier company had stolen it from the jiffy along the way. I thought Next would help out a bit more, but their customer service is like talking to a robot with repeated automated responses and just keep putting a link to the hermes delivery and photo with no interest in looking further into it. I have added the picture that hermes put up on their website. The jiffy is flat and usually chunky boxes are too big to able to be posted through the letterbox unless they are quite flat or a letter. I won't be ordering from Next again or using Hermes or any company that uses Hermes. And i urge people to beware, especially from Hermes workers from the Tottenham area/Enfield depot, they are allowed to steal parcels, which i think is utterly disgraceful.”

“A home order of over two thousand pounds placed in the beginning of November has turned out to be a ghost that keeps haunting me! The level of unprofessionalism, misinformation and crossed information of a store of this magnitude is astonishing!!! Avoid business with NEXT at all costs! it’s one issue after another! I’m literally fighting with NEXT to receive what I’ve purchased!”

“I ordered a sofa from Next three months ago. The delivery should have arrived today but didn’t. I rang Next and was told it was a failed delivery and I would have to wait 48 hours to arrange for another delivery. Also told if they don’t scan the sofa at the warehouse they won’t be able to locate it and I will have to order another sofa, which will take 11 weeks.”

“Ordered the five set of Gem led candles on line it shows a remote control and the candles appear to be a pinky colour and that each candles requires two AA, batteries which is what I was expecting however the truth is they are nothing like they are shown on line the candles are white with no colour at all, there's no remote to them and to top it all each candle requires not two but three batteries for each candle not only does this state on line but also on the box, not only is this false advertising its totally unacceptable.”

“Order numbers 31716818 Order number 31716789 I have been OVERCHARGED FOR the king size bed I ordered and I was promised a refund for the difference and I have STILL not received this!!!! Both beds were meant to arrive today and I took the day off work but the delivery drivers Ross and Scott arrived at my address BEFORE the time window around 7am!! With only 1 bed with boxes damaged. It appears that parts of this bed are missing also. The entire second bed missing, when I asked to sign the POD to state a bed was missing they stated that it had ‘run out of batteries’ I am now overcharged and missing an entire bed and got part of 1 bed!! I had received emails and texts to state that both beds were being delivered today but this has not happened. What I have received is some damaged boxes. Could someone please contact me as a matter of urgency”
