Poor communication - no confirmation email that my order was sent. Fedex ended up losing the package and when I emailed them about it, they didn't even respond nor care what happened to my package. Don't bother.

Oh my God, this is one of the worst companies I have had the misfortune to interact with in a very long time. On December 3, my husband placed a phone order with them; he was assured the gifts he ordered for me would arrive in "plenty of time" before Christmas. Not only did they not arrive before Christmas, the customer service rep (if you can even get anyone on the phone) could not tell us when they would depart the UK! As of today they are still (allegedly) sitting on a loading dock somewhere in the UK. We have called them several times, before, during and now, after the holidays. Not only do they not know when - or if - the paid-for items will arrive; they refuse to refund our money for items we no longer want because the promised time of arrival has elapsed. What little customer service they have is horrendous. It's like talking to a passive/aggressive brick wall. When I insisted on speaking to a manager (after needing to argue the point with the CSR) I was placed on hold for a long time, then hung up on! DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY - THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF!!

I ordered a few sweaters as a presents for my family and sent it to Russia. Order took forever to dispatch. Total delivery time from the day of order was 5 weeks. I was fine with it as it is better than not getting it delivered at all. After it was delivered my family reached out to me and sent some photos. One of the sweaters was the wrong color. I was upset and reached out to customer service about my experience. Customer service, the agent with name Olga, said that she is really sorry and asked to sent pictures of the sweater that my family got. I sent it. She said that ti make sure that it is a wrong color I will have to send it AT MY OWN EXPENSE back to England. They will look at the sweater and tell if it is the wrong color. The color that I ordered called "Marble"(brown), the color that I got "Ashes"(grey)[pictures attached]. So I asked my family to put smth grey near the sweater and take a picture. My sister put standard nike sweatpants and took a picture. I sent that as a response to Olga and said that unfortunately, I can't send the sweater back: 1.it is expensive to send it at my own expense for them "to look at the color". 2. It was a gift for Christmas. Olga's response was completely unprofessional and rude: she said that computer monitors (she made some grammar mistakes) are temp to change the color and makes the sweater look grey. She said that I had been sent the Marble color and that I don't see the difference. She also asked very rudely why I sent her a picture of a sweater with grey pants nearby. She said "it is not even a wool". I think it is an absolutely unacceptable customer service that is trying to make you look like a fool. Avoid at any price!

I live in the United States and ordered two sweaters from woolovers on October 24, 2021. One arrived with the top of the package completely slit open ( from customs?) and was not resealed. Luckily, sweater seem to be undamaged. The second sweater was “processed at Langley UK on November 8, 2021“ and as of December 10 has not arrived. In addition, tracking has no updates since the first entry on November 8. I called woolovers TWICE on November 24 and again on November 29 (paying for phone calls from US to UK). Each representative said I “ would receive information in 48 hours “ about the whereabouts of the sweater which apparently has vanished. As of December 10 I have received no follow up from either customer service representative I spoke to. I placed a ThIRD call today December 10 and requested a refund since it is almost 2 months since the missing sweater was ordered. The representative said he is “not authorized to process a refund”. I asked for him to send me an email today confirming that he has forwarded my request for the refund to “refund department“. No email , as I requested, was sent to me or received !!!! In addition to paying for three phone calls from US to UK , I am out $85 for the missing sweater as I have no hope of ever getting a refund from this, in my experience, incompetently run company. Woolovers has the worst customer service I have ever encountered in my life! What a disgrace ! Buy elsewhere…this is not a reputable company !

Order R8095275 placed 14/11. >£100 worth. Hermes alerted me collected 18/11. Hermes alerted me out for delivery 19/11. No sign of parcel. Email sent to woolovers alerting them to this 23/11. No response. 2nd email sent to woolovers stating still no parcel 25/11. Still no response. 3rd email sent to woolovers asking for response and resolution 26th. STILL NO RESPONSE !!!!!

Waiting for my parents Christmas presents which I cannot give them when I see them this week ( travelling to see them before Christmas because as an NHS worker am working 25/26/27th December ). Very very poor service 🤬. I like these products and have ordered from Woolovers many times over the years but this will be the last time ! ***** SORT THIS OUT *****

Utterly non-responsive, late delivery, didn't include prepaid return label (that I paid for) and now I don't have a return address. They've ignored my emails. Stay far away from them.

There is very little cashmere in their "cashmere merino" knitwear. Despite being essentially just a woollen jumper, the quality is extremely shoddy. Pilled beyond wearing outside the house within weeks. Fell apart at the seams and unwearable inside 9 months. Customer service not interested in standing behind their product. Definitely not worth buying anything from this company.

This is the worst online company I have ever dealt with. I have ordered several sweaters over the years. As a long time customer, I would have expected better customer service. They treated me like a criminal claiming I had placed too many orders and then received refunds. Not So. THEY kept cancelling my orders. I spoke to four different customer service representatives who told me it was my fault. Really? Then why do they keep sending me emails that my orders have been cancelled and cannot give me a straight answer? Now, on my fourth call, I was informed I have been 'blacklisted' and can never order anything from they again. Well, at this point I would never again anyway. BLACKLISTED? For what? I never heard of such a thing. I would not try to order one thing from this lousy company. They just treat you like you are trying to steal from them. I was appalled. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM WOOLOVERS because they will do everything in their power to prevent you from getting any merchandise even a catalog. I received a most charming email that they have cancelled my catalog subscription,. Good. I am finished with this deplorable company. I will conduct my business elsewhere. I would highly recommend that you boycott this business.

I have over the years bought many items from Woolovers. In the early yers I was well pleased with the quality and price however in the past year or so I have noticed a deterioration in the quality accompanied by an increase in price. The neck bands on cardigans especially, frequently have to be repaired - not easy when no spare wool is enclosed. Buttons also constantly lose their colour and you are left with a white ring around the edge. I have got used to the pilling - this does disappear after a time. I think it is wrong to describe the Merino and Cashmere items as Cashmere and Merino as the mix is 80% Merino and 20% cashmere. I have with great reluctance made up my mind that I shall no longer be buying from Woolovers.

I bought two merino wool cardigans . I’ve worn each one just once . The first cardigan was not sewn correctly on the neck rib band and had pulled away revealing I caught stitches . The second one has a tiny hole in the front where the thread was weaker . They are not cheap and I was unaware they were not a UK company manufacturing here so I won’t being buying from the any more . I couldn’t get the image to show below .

I bought a dress, having seen their ad, but when it (finally) arrived, it was a good 3" shorter than shown on the model, meaning it stopped above my knees - and I'm a good 3-4" shorter than the model. I rang them up and was told this had happened before but I could send it back and they'd send a replacement. But when the replacement came, it was just as short. I wrote to them and told them, and asked them if they'd be in touch about another replacement. Never got a reply. My advice is to steer clear of this company.

Terrible customer service. I never received the item after a month even when paying for quick shipping. Can't track. The tracking number does not work. Company will not help me in any way nor issue a refund so I can't say anything of quality, just poor service. Disgusted. Wasted a lot of money.
