The measurement that they said they would send was shorter than advertised. I’ve been trying to get a response from the company but to no avail. I have sent numerous emails and have got nothing back... See more

Lovely product

Lovely product, accurate description, good delivery. Far too much packaging requiring customer driving to another retailer - also plastic tape.

I ordered a pair of light fittings…

I ordered a pair of light fittings online, truly happy with my purchase, I then received a phone call from LL to say I had not ordered the accompanying fittings for the said purchase which would render it unusable, much appreciated.
The only thing I would suggest is that both the clustered light and fittings should truly be sold together as a set.

Reasonable price

Reasonable price, fast delivery and excellent customer service. I forgot to input new customer discount code when checking out. I have sent an email to ask for the discount. After a few days, the new customer discount was paid back to my card.

No Customer service, order still not fulfilled

Item was ordered over a month ago and despite repeated contact from me, no call were returned. one person answers the phone and refuses to pass you to anyone else. He even rang me back to give me abuse, before hanging up.
Item eventually arrived badly packaged and broken and to date I have had not return contact from me emails or phone calls

Terrible customer service for damaged/not as described items

I ordered 4 light fittings and prepared my wall ready to fit them after redecoration. I discovered 1 of the fittings was damaged and one was completely different. I have called customer services multiple times over 5 months to try first to get replacements and then a refund. Each time, they lied to me, saying they would action the replacement/refund later that day. They never did. In the end, I had to try to get a refund though my credit card, I’m left with a wall that needs redecorating again (at cost) and many wasted hours on hold.

Quality product at fair price and prompt delivery

With a large variety of options on a well organised website with meaningfull filters it was easy to find a product that we were looking for with a fair price.

The ordering process was easy, the high quality product was promptly delivered.

Absolutely abysmal

Shame I couldn’t have scored this company no stars! Awful, poor quality, product which arrived with scratches and a chip in the paper thin wood surround. Called the company within 5 minutes of opening the box to arrange a return and the customer service was then absolutely appalling with the employee stating their company policy superceded UK distance selling regulations. We are being refunded by PayPal thank goodness as I wouldn’t want to speak to this company again - woeful!!

Avoid avoid avoid!

Avoid avoid avoid!

I placed an order for four light fittings and decided to return two. I sent both back via Parcelforce and have proof of delivery for both lights.

They have only refunded one. They accept they received the other in their warehouse but it has been lost by their warehouse and because of that, they won’t give me a refund. The value of this light fitting is over £250.

My many emails have been ignored and the manager refuses to call me back. In all my years of online shopping (and I do a lot!), I have never experienced a retailer who admits they have the parcel but won’t process the refund because they don’t know what they did with it. Poor service and very questionable business practices. I wish I read the other reviews here before I ordered from them, especially the one about their appearance on Rip Off Britain.

I will have to take this further as they have essentially kept £250 from me. Save your sanity and order from elsewhere.

Edit - Lancashire Lighting tried to have this removed claiming it is harmful or illegal. As my review is factual and truthful, it has been kept up.

Second edit - the response by Lancashire Lighting is false. The Goods Return Note had the correct description and code - I still have a copy of it. In one of my many emails that were ignored, I provided a copy of the Goods Return Note so they knew exactly what I had returned. It is no doubt more than a coincidence that 12 hours after I posted this review, which they tried to have removed, they processed my refund. I would strongly suggest that everyone avoids this company.

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We appreciate your understanding and patience throughout this process. We would like to clarify the situation regarding the delay in processing your refund.

Upon reviewing the details of your return, we discovered that there was an error in the item code you provided for the returned products. This discrepancy caused confusion and required us to conduct a thorough investigation, including reviewing the CCTV footage, in order to identify the exact item you had returned. We want to emphasize that this task is time-consuming and cannot be completed within a few minutes.

After carefully examining the CCTV footage and cross-referencing the information, we were able to locate the specific item you had returned. Once we confirmed its identity, we promptly processed the refund for that item. We apologize for any inconvenience caused during this process and understand that it may have caused frustration on your part.

In order to ensure smooth and efficient processing of returns in the future, we kindly request that you provide accurate and complete information, including the correct item codes, when initiating any returns. This will help us expedite the process and prevent any unnecessary delays or confusion.

Lovely quality

Lovely quality. Even better than I expected. Arrived very quickly and very well packaged. Haven’t put them
Up yet as room isn’t ready but I can’t wait to see how they look. We have purchased them as bedside reading lights. Very happy with our choice and would highly recommend purchasing from Lancashire lights.
