“Bought 2 sofas in velour fabric. In less than a week parts of the fabric looked like white spots rather than the shading should look. The sofas look 5 years old. Complained to no avail. Next sent two different companies out who sent reports that were different from each other one said it looked like water damaged. The other said not water but pile crush. I think after a week this would be nigh impossible. I have tried to take this further but told nothing they will do case closed. I am so angry. at such arrogance. The sofas cost £1800and under the sale of goods act are not fit for purpose. I am going to take it further as the customer service is appalling. A good customer of Next for years but I will never shop there again nor will my family. I advise anyone not to buy furniture from NEXT or if you have any dissatisfaction with it you’ll be stuck with it. Janet Ball”

“Absolutely ridiculous. Every time you buy something that is in stock next day is not ,there are delays and you wait days and days to come,in most cases you just have to cancel the item. You call "customer service" and all you get from them is to tell you what you already know,they don't know when the item is going to be delivered but is in process. Solution is to cancel,pay again for same item to re-order and hope is going to come much quicker or keep waiting, and keep going back to the store to pick up the order you should have got long time ago. You do not get any help.. Shame on you to treat you long time customer like this. Am done with you Next,this time for real.”

“Poor customer service. They explanation to why they could not deliver an e-display item from the shop was because there policy is not to deliver TO the shop as they don't have storage facilities. It did not make sense, nor did they poor response.”

“Customer Service Call Centre Review of Next above is letting the business down. Telephone operators claiming to be intersted in your question of delivery service is very very poor and very unreliable. From experience, you are better off going into a branch speaking to a person not someone under pressure of answering call after call. Let’s all be honest .... Would You ...”

“Ordered a suit. 2 days later, we are notified that it has been delivered and left by our shed. This despite the fact that we were home all day and do not have a shed. The courier had left the package somewhere else. We eventually received the suit 3 days later. We also bought an additional pair of suit trousers. We pick these up and they are the wrong size. Even though the package states 36R, the trousers show 34R and won't fit. Additionally, we are told they have no stock of 36R. I would not have bought this suit had I known that. Fed up with Next and will never use them again”

“Terrible customer service, ordered 3 items in sale 2 were advertised as reserve items but main item shoes for wedding in just over a week were in stock, phoned a couple days after order to find out when these would arrive in store only to be told 2 to 3 weeks, fuming! So angry, told to them to cancel the whole order, sorry we cant do that? 2 items are not due for 5 weeks or more but they cant stop the order, really? Better service in Poundland!”

“I ordered item online. it was supposed to be delivered to the store for collection. I was not informed that the order is arrived in the store. Item was returned back as uncollected. I was not informed that the item is waiting in the store and it will be returned. When I contacted Next, they were not helpful. They told me I have to reorder the item. I have been waiting for my order for 1 month Very disappointing.”

“Identity theft, Fraud, unreasonable demands for personal information I placed an order and received a TEXT saying i need to call them. I requested a call back and the women asked question after question. Then she said said she is going to ask questions from my credit file and electrol roll. This iisn't right I haven't applied credit with them its a straight forward cash order. I work in account myself and i find it quite strange. She said as i refused the internal security she is going to cancel my order and close my account. Its a straight forward case of identity theft. I will report this to trading standards. They have no right to ask for my personal details which can be used to apply credit on my name for no reason. I do understand if i have applied for credit it my legal responsibility to provide all the right information.”

“Not sure if I even would want to give one star! We ordered an armchair and after waiting for 12weeks, someone in their delivery cancelled our order. After contacting Next, we were told there will be another 9weeks wait until we can sight our armchair. We just welcomed a little baby to our family and wanted this armchair to help my wife to feed him but hey what a mistake to think that Next would care. Very disappointed 🤒”

“Thank you so much Next, for ruining my daughter’s Christmas by your absolutely appalling practice! You managed to ship the present to the wrong address, not even informing me that you were about to deliver, or even informing me afterwards that you had attempted delivery after your failed delivery –wrong address remember… Then when I enquired about this parcel and found out what had happened, you informed me that the item was now out of stock and you could not ship it back to me for this reason. Your team people are acting like robots instead of using basic common sense, ie. I AM NOT TRYING TO ORDER A NEW JACKET, I WANT THE JACKET I HAVE ORDERED LONG AGO SENT TO THE CORRECT ADDRESS! This jacket does exist and is lying somewhere in a warehouse because no one in your team is able to stop and think instead of acting like a human robot!! Oh! and of course to top everything up, I am now told that I have been refunded for my “return”, but obviously the shipping costs have not been refunded!!! To sum it up: absolutely appalling service both from the team dealing with the order and from your after sales service.”

“Brakeburn Ditsy Daisy Sandals, these are £6 and in stock from the Brakedale company, next directory are charging £30 for them. It’s a disgrace. I also had a complaint about 24 hour delivery service taking several days, no one even acknowledged my complaint.”

“Placed order on 30th December and was supposed to receive my order by 24th January. On 17th Jan received email that my item is in warehouse and that it will be dispatched within next 24 hours. Checked my bank account and next had deducted money for the purchase. On 19th Jan received an email and a text message that I will get the delivery on 20th Jan. Waited all Saturday for my delivery and received nothing. Next day contacted customer services and was told that my item is not in stock! When asked why I received all the emails with delivery confirmation was told that they expected to receive item from supplier, but they have no stock now and that it is a matter of waiting now when the item will become available and they don't know how long it may take. So now I'm a £100 short have no coat and might not even get it by the end of the winter. Honestly I did not expect such poor service from Next...”

“The personalised item was very disappointing - it was smaller than I expected, the engraving was hard to read even with glasses, it was delivered in a paper bag rather than a gift box and I was charged £28 instead of £21.”

“Next, your sale is total rubbish. Unless you’re the size of a small child or rather large there is absolutely nothing for an average person. You really need to look at what other stores are doing”

“I ordered items beginning of December one item came the next day out of 5 even though it said they were in stock. Received an email to say they would be with me on the 16th they didn't arrive. Then I received a VIP SALR slot time was able to look at what was in sale only to find out the items that I was waiting for were on the sale. I contacted customer services to see if I would be charged the sale price and they said no because I ordered back the beginning of December I had to be charged the full price. Bit I actually received them on the day of the sale how can this company do this. Is it legal do I need to go to trading standards on the matter. Come on next where's your customer service gestures to loyal customers.”
