Brilliant value quality product. When I realised I’d got the wrong colour shorts, a quick exchange was done for me, a phone call to check the sizing as I’d also gone up a size, then really fast deli... See more

Awful customer service

Awful customer service. I was sent the wrong shoe size twice in a row! It took over 3 weeks to receive the exchange. The staff were incredibly unhelpful. Would not recommend.

Horrible (non-existent) Service

Horrible service. No contact, no responses to email, no updates to order, just nothing. I placed an order on 18 Sep for a pair of bloch criss cross sneakers, because it said 2-3 days delivery and my daughter was desperate for a new pair. As soon as the order was confirmed, I received a separate email to say they were out of stock with estimated delivery now w/c 07 Oct. No updates received after this date. I emailed to ask for an update on my order, or a full refund on 16 Oct, still no response. I have had to get new shoes from a different store. Avoid any purchases here if you value your money. Just horrible. What a way to treat paying customers.

Appalling customer service

Appalling customer service. I ordered dance trainers and paid £6.99 for delivery. 10 days later I emailed to find out where my order was. No response. I called after 12 days to be told that they were out of stock. No one has been in touch. No apology from the girl on the phone either. Will not use again.

They were on their toes.

I ordered two pairs of ballet slippers just before lunch on the 25th September, and they came through my letterbox at lunchtime on the 26th September.

They were exactly what I wanted, at an excellent price, and a perfect fit.

That is service par excellence!

Speedy and efficient service

So impressed with the service I received from Dancewear Central. The product I was interested in was competitively priced with free postage. Online Customer Services were helpful and informative, I submitted my order early Monday evening and received it within 48 hrs. A very speedy and efficient service, highly recommend.

Placed an order well in advance for an order to be processed and delivered. Apparently they do no check orders before released to delivery providers and in case of errors is to the costumer responsibility to call and ask them to check and do the job correctly. No costumer update of the order or any costumer communication at all. To get the order in the time line I have been advised to pay over £10 to be delivered.
Informed the manager Natasha that this is not an sustainable approach for a business. Unsatisfied with the service.

Hello,

We are sorry to hear you are unsatisfied with the service you have recieved.

I have looked into this and can see that the delivery address was not filled in correctly when the order was placed. As this is an automated system, and due to the sheer number of orders we receive, it is not possible for us to check every parcel that leaves us for an incorrectly inputted address. An automated email is sent at every stage of the ordering process, but these can sometimes go into your junk or spam folder, and so we appreciate they can sometimes be missed.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback.

Assuring you of our best attention at all times.

Excellent service

I placed my order on a Monday afternoon with standard delivery and my shoes arrived the day after- brilliant service. When I found that the shoes were too narrow for my feet, I phoned customer service and they were so helpful in advising me on a more suitable product and how to go about organising an exchange.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback.

When we spoke to you regarding your return on the 30th January, your return was not fully processed, and therefore we were unaware of the additional payment required due to the VAT.

Once your return was processed on the 31st January, our records show that a call was placed at 1.37pm regarding this payment. When we could not get through, an email was sent at 1.39pm stating that there was a difference in the price, how much this would be, and how to contact us to pay this.

When we received your call earlier today, we processed your payment directly, and your parcel was immediately despatched.

We want to reassure you that your return was processed as swiftly as possible, and within the 10-14 business day turn around stated on our website.

We are sorry that you were not happy with the outcome on this occasion.

Assuring you of our best attention at all times.

Best wishes,

Having purchased a pair of tap shoes that appear to be faulty. I contacted customer services as my daughter had only had the tap shoes for 6 weeks and only tap dances for 30 mins a week.

I received a very poor reply basically telling me they are budget tap shoes?!?!
I replied to the email to query this and no reply!
I’ve followed up again - no reply!

Absolutely appalling customer service and shocking that it seems that I’d need to replace tap shoes after 3 hours of wear?!?!
Great ethos towards the world’s climate crisis!

Ordered some tights for next day delivery as daughters dance show is coming up.

First of all, Parcelforce are a terrible delivery company and are notorious for bad service.

I knew delivery was expected Thursday, so was in all day at home.

Nothing.

I check my emails to then look for tracking and it says an attempt was made. I checked my cameras and no attempt was made.

No calling card left.

I email dancewear and understandably don't get a response until today.

In the meantime, I call parcelforce to find out which post office my parcel has been sent to.

I get a response this morning from dancewear Central who give me a closed answer saying attempt was made at 2.08pm. With nothing else. Shocking customer service, despite me already telling them no attempt was made.

The footless tights i ordered in flesh colour are not flesh. They're a light pink colour. Misleading and now I'm having to scramble to find alternatives.

Avoid this company. Bad customer service, misleading photos on website and they use parcelforce who don't attempt delivery.
