Over payment

Had nothing but bother after my mum
Was overcharged by fitter to the amount of £39 pounds as the man who measured her blinds did not mark on system
He had been paid his fee fitter over charged her by £5.15 aswell 1 week later still no resolution customer services is a joke they pass you from pillar to post my mum is 75 and has all her faculty’s but was so caught of guard she paid the money then called me which begs the question how many vulnerable people are being over charged by the people who is handling payments the fitter only put through he took £58.40 when really he charged her £64 which is not on

Do Not Recommend

I would not recommend Shades Blinds based on my experience.

From the outset, the service has been extremely disappointing. Initial appointments were missed for measuring, which caused delays straight away. Although this was eventually resolved and I was reassured that everything would run smoothly moving forward, this has not been the case.

We are now in April and my shutters, which were due to be fitted on 20th April, have still not been installed. Due to the prolonged delays, my finance agreement has now expired, not because I exceeded the agreed 12-week term, but because of the time taken on their side. I’ve since been informed that I may now be declined if I reapply, which has only added to the frustration.

Communication has been particularly poor. I have repeatedly been told that someone would contact me to resolve the issue, but no one ever follows up. I was also given incorrect information regarding the installation date just days before it was due, only to then be told that the shutters aren’t even expected to arrive until 27th April.

Overall, the experience has been incredibly stressful and time-consuming. I am now in the process of requesting a refund and will be using a different company.

Very disappointing service from start to finish.

All great so far. Big recommend

Blinds not fitted yet, but …
Gary, who measured my windows and gave me info and advice on my options, was very professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly and, best of all, there was no hard sell. All this plus speed of delivery, price and the 5-year guarantee made it an easy decision to get my blinds from Shades.
I’ll report back after fitting.
