Yet again, your delivery service is absolutely rubbish, our item was supposed to be specifically delivered today, we wait in, and we have just received a phone call from AIT confirming we need to select a date next week, so will now need to book a days holiday !!! As a loyal customer who was planning to buy many more items for a home renovation, yet again your service is shocking... Your company has been going down hill for a while. You urgently need to sort your systems out, as you have now lost a VERY loyal customer who has spent thousands over the years !!!

Ordered a mattress and was told that it had been dispatched and the delivery was 18th September. I stopped in all day but no delivery arrived. Tried to contact customer service today and finally got through to be told they would email the delivery company and ask them to call me. After a few hours of not hearing anything back i called again to be told the same thing. I finally got a call back at 4.30pm and then get cut off. I called back and spoke to someone else who said that the next delivery would be next Wednesday! I asked for the delivery agency number to be told they don't have it!! How can they not have it??? After the call I decided to cancel my order as the only reason I placed the order with Dunelm was for quick delivery. I would rather spend my money elsewhere if it can't be delivered until next Wednesday. However, I have found that I can't even cancel my order online so here's to another fun day tomorrow trying to contact somebody! I will never order from Dunelm again and will be telling my family and friends not to either

***BE WARNED*** ***Be Warned*** My sister bought furniture online from Dunelm, she's not great at building so I went up to build her tv cabinet firstly, got half way through and realised piece number 5 was cut about 30mm too short. Couldn't continue due to this, my sister called and asked for a replacement piece. Dunelm stated this wasn't possible and she would have to return the lot. So again I had to go up to strip what I built and re-box. She was then told delivery would be Monday (today). But they couldn't give her a time until night before. My sister works, luckily I'm on holiday and will now have to sit at her house between 5pm and 7pm. DUNELM I HAVE HONESTLY GOT BETTER THINGS TO BE DOING THAN RUNNING ABOUT DUE TO YOUR INCOMPETENCE AND WASTING MY TIME. SHOCKING.

Paid £125 for a chrome floor standing lamp but the thread on the joining tubes were so oversize that it just kept falling apart. How do they get away with selling junk like this?

I am very disappointed, I would not recommend this company to anyone, the bed arrived damaged and without the mattress, which I have already paid for, it should have come all together, now waiting to know when the mattress will arrive, everything is very disorganized

I have been overcharged by £45.00 queried with the lady who served me and she said it didn’t go through system is slow. The person in front had paid cash.Then went on and charged me for the items I had bought £3.24. Checked my bank on leaving returned to the store stating £45.00 had been charged to my account. Supervisor advised the payment wouldn’t go through, unfortunately contacted customer service as payment has been processed and now waiting a response from Brislington branch now very stressed and frustrated and £45.00 down

We ordered garden table and chairs and were told it would be delivered by 1st of August Got a message from the delivery company AIT Home Delivery the day before saying there was a problem and to get in touch It turns out that the date Dunelm gave us is the date that AIT received it from them and not the actual delivery date to the customer. Our actual delivery date is now the 6th of August Apparently this happens all the time so be aware that the date you are given is not the customers delivery date. Totally disappointing as we changed our schedule to suit the first date. Very unprofessional and totally avoidable bad service from Dunelm

I am Really Upset and very Unhappy, after several issues placing an order online (spoke with 2 advisors via online chat) on the Dunelm website for the 'Elements Peacock Hanging Egg Chair', I finally placed my order for 2 of them along with 2 Singapore black egg chairs as well, all monies were taken, delivery date set for Wednesday 31st July and suddenly today 28/07/2024 I get an email saying I have been refunded, prior email today to the refund one says my 2 Elements Peacock Hanging Egg Chairs have been cancelled and refund sent. No explanation from Dunelm as to why they have cancelled, but I am so very dissapointed as I'm in process of painting my existing wooden garden furniture to match these peacock chairs , that are now not arriving ! The chairs were in stock on the website at time of ordering on 22/07/2024 so I have no idea why they cancelled them, this was an order of £567.15, it was personally my first order with them, and if this is how they treat their customers, it may well be my only order with them now. I am one very unhappy customer tonight, yes Dunelm are refunding me and rightly so, but that is beside the point, if items are in stock at the time of ordering and payment taken in full, then the items should be delivered as they were booked in to be. I really do not know what else to say except I think this is very poor of Dunelm.

Bought a saucepan today from Blackpole store. Specifically asked if it was appropriate for an induction hob. Assured it was. Guess what ? It doesn't work. A 25 mile trip wasted pllus 25 miles to return it.

Went to Kilmarnock branch to buy two rugs. The price on the rug stand was £22, no price on the rug itself only a bar code. Bar code couldn't be read at the till so assistant looked up the code and they were £30 each. I disputed the price and after looking into it the assistant told me that the carpet price on the stand was for old stock. Do you really think that this customer service is acceptable whereby items are being purchased with incorrect bar code at the till and the price is different on the stand. I did purchase the rugs but this has put me off buying from you in future.

My 16 years old daughter was refused fabric dye?? Never heard you have to be over 21 to buy Dylon fabric dye. Not only but, the shop assistant called the manager because I said I'll buy it and couldn't sell it to me because she knew it was originally for my daughter. No other place has this restriction. This was in Hastings branch

Had problems with a delivery: phone call promised never materialised, time slot given was not adhered to, delivery men were rude and unhelpful. Made a complaint to Dunelm. The response told me what SHOULD have happened, not what did. The woman I complained to ended her email by saying "I hope you have a lovely day". Crass. Insensitive. Total lack of self awareness.

Twice I have taken time off work for blinds to be fitted and on both occasions, fitter never turned up - the second time without any contact telling me the appointment couldn't 't be kept. I wrote to their CEO in mid-June no response. Still waiting for even an acknowledgement. The business is a joke! Avoid. I plan to visit my store in person tomorrow for a few home truths.

Placed an order on the 7th and instantly cancelled it as it went to the wrong store, was told i would receive a full refund, they only refunded £14 out of a £113 order. Their customer service is a joke along with their refund policy. They said the London store needs to sort it or to go into the store (over 4 hours away) I've tried calling the store it just rings and rings then says no one available then hung up. I've spoken via the live chat over 10 times and they say nothing they can do and that the store will sort it, yet the store doesn't answer calls nor responds to emails, even emailed the store manager and no response. Their refund policy clearly states 3 - 5 working days but they don't plan to follow their own policy. Avoid buying anything online from them! Never had a problem buying from their stores directly

Horrible horrible customer service - would give no stars if I could. Order some goods on a click and collect basis but then got a message from DHL that they would deliver my Dunelm order. Got the tracking information etc. and waited in - until I got a message from DHL that parcel had been delivered to the Dunelm store in Bury St Edmunds. Called the store to find out why DHL had advised me they were delivering to me and got a very rude women who simply could not understand why I was annoyed!!! kept telling me that they have nothing to do with DHL and couldn't imagine why I had got these DHL notifications and told me to contact DHL direct - unbelievably rude and unhelpful - as if I dreamed the many notifications from DHL. Hopeless, hopeless customer service and very rude as well - finally cut me off. I suggest avoiding this company at all costs. Dr. A Finch
