“Absolutely appalling scam of a company. Take you money for 3 months, change delivery date 3 times then cancel your order with no explanation beyond an email saying if you want it, buy it again from the website, where it is now £100 more expensive. Oh and they've had your money for 3 months, and will still take 2 weeks to give it back to you. Contact them, and they do nothing. Just tell you that you have to reorder at the new price. No attempt to remedy, no goodwill, no understanding of customer service. Will never do business with them again and I suggest you don't either.”

“I’ve held an account with Very for many years. Never had any issues to be fair but I used to like to take advantage of their BNPL offer. I a, now at 59.9% interest rate which is just absolutely outrageous. To put this into context, my payment is due to be settled over the next few months. I have a balance of £3261. If I don’t pay it on time, the interest will be £2033. That is absolutely daylight robbery and nothing short as disgusting. I will pay it, even if I have to max out my credit card. I’m not letting them get away with my money. Safe to say, once I’m cleared, I’ll be closing my account for good you blinking rob dogs.”

“As a longstanding customer of Very im now sadly closing my account, and my wife, sister mother and friend are also following suite. This is purely down to the horrific attitude of the Very fraud investigator named Lisa. Somehow, even though I have had my account approx 5 years longer than my wife Very IT department have cross pollinated them so when I now log in a see my wife's name and when she logs in she sees mine! But our personal age, sex etc details remain the same. She called me to insinuate that I was a fraudulent client and I was deeply shocked with her appalling rude manner when the error lies with Very. Truly horrendous member of staff.”

“Worst company ever. Do not order from here!! I ordered 2 beds and received only 1 bed with missing item.”

“DON'T PAY FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY!!! I have been without my laptop now for 6 weeks and all you get is "the replacement part is getting delivered tomorrow" multiple times, the worst thing is they used sub-standard parts on the first repair and even put the wrong screws in the bottom of my £1000 laptop. When you ask about SLAs in regard to replacements they just repeat "We'll let you know when it's repaired", which is unacceptable as I keep getting told it's just a few more days. I'm an engineering student and can't afford to keep buying laptops and I start my studies again in 2 weeks, this is totally unacceptable and a complaint has been raised. I paid for the extended warranty because I can't afford to be without my laptop, all they've done here is taken 6 weeks to achieve nothing when the manufacturer can fit a replacement battery in 2 weeks or less; the actual replacement it's itself takes 30 min at most too which is further salt in the wounds.”

“Absolutely ridiculous customer services and no e mail or messaging service to contact them at all-no one answers the phone I’ve got item being delivered to wrong address and no one can help me !! Tried all day and now it’s going to wrong address ??? Rubbish …so stressful”

“As I used a first time order code they cancelled my order simply as they didn't want to honour the code. Second reason probably was I paid in full and they probably want to rip people off with the high ineterest rate of 42 percent. They have said due to high risk they will be closing my account.”

“Poor customer service. Paid in full for a mattress for my toddler, it arrived damaged and dirty from the courier, returned it (as Very don't arrange exchanges) and had to pay in full for another mattress to be delivered. Called to speak to someone to ask if you've recieved the return yet and worried when the next one will arrive as my toddler has no mattress and the woman on the phone didn't give a damn, might as well have told your online chat bot. £360 out of pocket, no mattress and NO APOLOGY! Disgusting! I left a trustpilot review, Kimberley and Dylan asked me to submit my order number which I did and now I've been ignored. DON'T ORDER FROM VERY!”

“The Very App is so bad these days it’s almost like the company has stopped caring, they clearly have no quality control before releasing updates to their products! The favourites has been broken for months, now you can no longer filter .. what next! 👎”

“Absolutely terrible experience. Purchased a gaming PC for Christmas for my son. They sent it via Yodel (although Yodel is renowned for poor delivery they only use them as their director also owns Yodel, so as proper businesses wouldn't choose them Very will - look it up!) So Yodel lost the parcel (stolen? Who knows?) and Very would NOT take ANY responsibility for their failed promised delivery date. As days went by, customer service service kept claiming it would be delivered the following day without any reason to expect Yodel to find the parcel, let alone attempt delivery. I eventual took legal action against Very which resulted in a Directors PA phoning me, who did try to resolve via Yodel, admitted she wasn't hopeful, so arranged for a 2nd to be sent, unfortunately by Yodel again, no surprises when it was delayed again This time it was just sitting in a huge pile of undelivered parcel at my local depot. They refused to allow me to collect it, I just had to wait again for them to actually get around to delivering it. With daily calls to the PA, she did manage to escalate it within Yodel. Also took advantage of a discount if I took a 3 month interest free credit (they hoped customers default, then charge eye watering interest). Trying to make payment via their website was impossible. Everytime I filled I the payment details my bank needed my authorisation for the transaction, the bank App would pop up, I click confirm, but returning back to Very website to complete payment their website reloads, starting the process again. This means money is reserved by my bank for Very to collect, yet Very doesn't complete the transaction, starting the whole process again, reserving a 2nd, then 3rd amount. Voice recognition on their helpline is poor making it difficult to speak to anyone, or use the automated service. Paid off the balance in full and closed the account down.”

“I have used very a long time and never had issues until now! Disgusting service..I ordered a table and chairs on the 4th March to come the following day but then to be told it cannot be tracked and was promised another was sent out again and it would come the next day..so after 2 days of having to sit in for the item I lost pay and nearly lost my job because every everyone of the customer services lied to me! I was shocked I had called around 30 times in 4 days..lie after lie. The managers were useless too! Little did I know this customer services is in South Africa ( ha ha sorry but this does not excuse the rude attitude) Manager is either on lunch or a meeting..when you do sit around waiting for ten mins as promised he called me while I was at work. I was absolutely fuming disgusting service.. apparently they don't compensate for loss of wages even though I had no choice to stay in because I was receiving information saying on way with Tuffnells..manager cancelled both orders of tables which probably wasn't even sent. And promised he would call me back to discuss how compensation works...waited 4 days and the manager still is yet to call me. Laughable really shows they don't care how much you spend with them cash or by now pay next year! I work for the NHS and if I treated people like this I'd be out of a job. I put my review on Trustpilot and funny enough there is a lot of positive feedback got to be fake. I have called again and the customer service lady wouldn't give me the managers name who is vile lies so much ..or he's in a meeting..or he's on lunch so after a total of 47 calls over a week I still haven't got anywhere so resolver I go. This company needs closing abusing loyal customers. Really disappointed as I have recommended friends won't be shopping with them again that's for sure!”

“I purchased the Savannah fabric sofa bed on the 6th of February and paid additional fee to receive this the next day. It was delivered promptly, which I was pleased about. The sofa arrived without the two side parts: the sofa has no arms and the metal connectors are visible, which makes the sofa unusable. I telephoned Very’s customer service as soon as I unpacked to sofa hoping for a resolution. I was told that as they have no parts available and that I would need to send the item back and await for a refund which takes up to 14 days. I don’t want to go through the return of the sofa, then having to wait for my money (up to 14 days) until I have enough funds to order another sofa, which then I will have to unpack and set up again, on my own, as a single person. It is not my problem that the sofa was sent with missing parts. Therefore, I should not be the one suffering for it. Very should be making arrangements as this has been a cause of major stress already. I understand that mistakes happen, but they should be corrected and the customer should not be losing out when it is the company’s fault. It is quite disgusting that they are not bending backwards to actually get the parts to me as they have sent a completely unusable item. I will be posting this review everywhere and will look into escalating this matter further.”

“Absolutely dreadful! I have been with very for years but December 2022 was the last time I will ever purchase something off them. I had a damaged fridge freezer delivered and the horrible delivery drivers left it outside in the rain! I have had so many telephone conversations with them as it was a fire hazard blocking the front door. It was finally picked up a week later. I thought it was all sorted but then an email saying the product was missing over a month later and now we are being charged for it! I have spoken to someone yet again who said yep completely not our fault but then I have been charged on my account. I have contacted trading standards, this is an absolute joke!”

“I purchased a Ninja Airfryer on Saturday 4th Feb and paid by paypal - Delivery was due to be made on Monday 6th Feb however on Monday morning I still had not received an order confirmation email - Concerned that my order was still showing as 'processing' within my Very account & my paypal payment was showing as pending collection by the seller - I telephoned Very. After being placed on hold repeatedly; the third person I eventually spoke to told me that there was a problem with my paypal payment - I felt this was odd since I always pay for goods by paypal and have never had an issue before. I was assured that this apparent paypal issue was a technical glitch and someone would telephone me later the same day. Realising that the product was now showing as being 'out of stock' and later showing the price had been increased by £20 i resolved myself that i would not be getting my purchase. I decided to speak directly to paypal to see what the issue was however by the time I spoke to them the pending payment transaction had totally disappeared from my account - Paypal have advised that Very had cancelled the payment which is why it was no longer showing. I still have not received a call back from Very regarding my order and I have since discovered that when i try to log into my account a message appears stating 'access denied'. I could understand this had i been rude to the customer support however i was extremely polite - Running an online retail business myself I am fully aware that sometimes stock count errors occur and an item may have been over sold however the lack of honesty and communication from very is disgusting. Honesty is ALWAYS the best policy and obviously this is something that Very struggles with - All i did was place an order in good faith and to be blocked from even accessing my account with no warning or reason is inexcusable. I had planned to close my account anyway based on this experience. Obviously this shall be my first and last experience of purchasing from Very - I see now that their full business name really should be Very Shambolic! Appalling customer service - Very; if an item is not available contact your customers and apologise; Its not difficult!”

“On Sunday 5th Feb, 11.15 ordered and paid for an Air Fryer, order confirmed , informed it would be delivered on Monday 6th Feb, a few mins later, informed the item was out of stock, checked payment had not be taken on my card, it had.Now been advised that l will have to wait 5 to 7 days for the refund to be be returned to my card account. How can they take payment when there is NO STOCK, Since the original transaction over the next 24 hrs l have had 3 emails, saying the item is back in stock. Very l taking payment when there is no stock. Disgusting ! ! First and last time l will ever use this company.”
