I SENT EMAIL: on march 24, 2024 i bought two sleeveless sweater from your company. i have worn these sweaters occasionally for 9 months and they have now developed pills all over the sweaters. this can not be normal nor be expected. what can you do about this? THEIR RESPONSE: ****Unfortunately as the order is outside of our returns window we would be unable to accept this back for a refund or exchange.**** We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Kind regards, Charlie SUGESTION: don't buy Woolovers sweaters!

the only way to return is to go online. I ordered by phone and expected to receive a return label. the products are great but, I will not order or recommend again until they facilitate returns for USA based customers. i.e. with return label featuring an actual address in the USA included in the package with the items!

I used to enjoy their sweaters, sufficiently to ignore the few unseemly rude "customer service" interactions. But trying to exchange a blouse (3rd time I tried to replace one I LOVED, with same appearance, fabric, etc. online but only to arrive different), I am supposed to pay $8 to return the one, WAIT 4 WEEKS for it to be received, THEN the exchange garment will be sent - seriously? *IF* it is still available. OR I can purchase another - pay another $8 for shipping to have it sent - so $16 for postage to receive an item in timely manner. Oh - and maybe a credit for one of the postage charges? "Not our policy." Maybe a supervisor could help with policy (said nicely)? "Not our policy." OK - well please then take me off of all of your marketing as I am no longer interested in working with these policies (said nicely). She HUNG UP - (9/30 @ 2:30, though NO ONE certainly ever would care enough to notice a bad review, guaranteed). Haughty and rude. There are plenty of other places to shop. CAVEAT EMPTOR. Oh wow - I wish I had checked these reviews first.

I ordered a US size 4 blouse (a size I've been all my adult life with consistent results). I tried it on, and it was too tight in the shoulders and sleeves. I checked the size tag and it said US size 2. So, I contacted the company because of the error. They will not pay for return shipping saying the blouse is a US size 4 and the US size 2 tag is an "old tag." That is the most ridiculous excuse I've ever heard. But it gets better. I'm trying to return through their "intelligent returns" online system, but this item is not appearing and the emails back and forth with Woolovers illustrates an astounding level of incompetence and a complete lack of concern. They won't cover $8 in return shipping to cover their error but are fine with losing me as a long-term customer (I'd bought from them before and was happy with the purchases). Just steer clear of this company. Not worth the hassle if you have an issue, and they don't care.

I have sent a picture of 2 sweaters which developed holes under the arms .like the 2 I bought previously. You say that because I have had them more than 6 months.so you are not prepared to do anything. Next step ombudsman.and your head office can be bothered to reply either. Rubbish company. Will never buy from you again And you have lots of bad reviews,I.m delighted to see. Serves you right.selling cheap rubbish

The sweater was amazingly too small. I think it was meant for a toddler or chihuahua. I can see why they were all sold out of XL. I got charged for shipping it to me and for shipping it back.

This site is a rip off. It used to be great and I bought various of their products over the years but one time there was a shipping issue and the after sales service was so poor I decided to stop buying from them though I remained subscribed to their site. I decided to give them a second chance and selected an item at GBP49. Unbelievably if you're buying from a Euro country they convert automatically to EUR77.95, before other charges. That's a complete rip off - it should be EUR56.33, so they've ripped you off EUR20 before you've even left the store. Avoid if shopping from overseas.

The Aran Knitted Jumper is undersized but it is so uncomfortable the wool is so coarse it’s like wearing a rough hessian….appalling Do NOT BUY it’s a waste of money!

I brought a lambswool cardigan from Woolovers a year ago pleased with size and fit. However over the last two or three months the cardigan has shrunk smaller and smaller, now it no longer fits me. I followed washing instructions so can't understand why this has happened. I phoned customer services to ask what could be done. They told me that couldn't help as my complaint fell outside their six month return policy. I think a jumper like this should have lasted me for years, so very disappointed with the companies attitude. Will not be using them again.

I purchased a sweater from WoolOver on March 7, 2022 for $85.02. It is the same sweater that appears on page 32 in their most recent catalogue. My sweater is unraveling. In fact in what I thought was a fluke, I took it to a tailor about a year and a half ago to have a previous hole re-woven. Since then it has unraveled in three more places. Like all my sweaters I have cared for them as instructed on the labels and have had them for years. I wrote the company with this complaint and asking for a refund or at least a partial one. Their response: "...our returns policy for faulty items, is that these must be reported within 6 month of purchase." If I had known that this sweater was made in China I would not have purchased it. This is a very inferior product, expensive, and does not instill confidence in further purchases from this company. Photos below

Cannot give lower rating. I purchased a jumper ax late xmas present as this was made in the UK even though it's price was higher. Requested next day delivery. The site mentioned nothing about which companies it uses for delivery though I assumed that of you sell quality product your customer service extends to delivery and you use a company with decent reputation. No!!!!! they use evri. package posted by them 27th, i expected it 28th. today is 4th january. the company does not answer emails and does not respond to phone calls with actions. I requested refund as evri told me they lost it. Zero response to!!!! never again

I bought a bag of six moth repellent cedar balls from Woolovers, three years ago. It cost £5.00 plus £3.95 for P&P. I’ve since discovered that another UK company sells a pack of 24 cedar balls for the same price and P&P is free! What a rip-off!

I got a sweater/cardigan a couple of weeks back and once I tried it on, did not like the fit, the material and colour, so tried to return. Had to pay for my return in addition to the shipping cost of getting it and they only returned the cost of the product. Very poor corporate policy on refunds and also the quality of the product for the price was not worth it. Would not recommend it unless there is a local store to try it on.

The worst experience with this company. My first delivery went missing, it took two weeks to resend it. They customer service is so rude. We finally got the jumpers and it was written they are from China. The quality was also bad. Be careful: on the return form they ask about your card details and CVV code ! Never send your full card details to this company. And you have to pay to return the items.

Bought a cash merino sweater. Nothing like it I’m afraid. Inferior yarn that is hard and rough to wear and no response from Woolovers.

Hi, I had been given a present by my ill mother in law, but present was too small. I asked for an exchange, but they said it should have been done by 6th January. V sad, as i have bought loads from Woolovers and have always been very pleased. I understand a refund not acceptable, but NOT TO AGREE to exchange for a bigger size.... very poor. WATCH OUT future buyers, incase it happens to you.

...completely ignored my complaint about the quality of their so-called "Aran" sweater. It is falling apart at the collar.... avoid these. I called a rather unhelpful contact in their sales office. Then emailed my complaint with a photo and received no reply .... I will avoid this company in future. They are aptly named; they certainly pulled the wool over my eyes! I have given them a star only because you have to!
