Had to leave a good review

Had to leave a good review, the clothes are amazing for the price. To be able to get toddler clothing from £2 with these amazing characters on is wonderful. Really happy with them and will be buying again very soon!

Cheaply made

Bought over £100 worth of items, including £27 for a lightning mcqueen bag. The bag is extremely poor quality, the handle snapped the 2nd time it got taken to school, got it fixed and now the other side has snapped. This bag is used to nursery so is extremely light just very poorly made. Clothes seem ok at the moment but not had chance to use most as they're for a birthday present. Very disappointed paying £27 for a bag and it snapping so easily

Product was fine but customer services were non-existent.

I purchased some clothes for my grandson and I was advised to spend more to obtain free postage. I added additional items and was advised that I was entitled to free shipping. However, shipping costs were added to my final bill. I contacted the company three times about the issue, a website error, but no response. Product was fine but customer services were non-existent. A simple matter to resolve but they couldn't be bothered.

Worst customer service EVER!

Worst customer service EVER!!
I ordered two items from them, I open the parcel and one item is in the bag but on the paper inside it stated both item names so I emailed them to ask where my other item is? They didn't reply at all.. so I had to ring them up for them to say they will check with the Amazon warehouse, afew days later I got a response that wasnt nice at all basically accusing me of lying and I ain't happy. I don't know how much more evidence I need to supply ? I don't want a refund! I just want my size 3-4 Ariel dress as it's a Christmas present! I emailed back saying I want this whole mess sorted and when I tell you they gone quiet, not responded so I've emailed again and of course nothing... so basically I've been robbed of my money! I just want to receive this dress, but they are making this whole mess they've caused so stressful!

Fantastic Customer Service!

I ordered several items from Character.com for my daughter’s Christmas list and everything arrived to Australia from the UK in great time. The quality of each item is absolutely fantastic.

I accidentally ordered two of the same product, and when I called to explain my mistake, the customer service team were amazing. Even before I could say anything else, they offered me a refund and told me not to worry about sending the duplicate item back. This was such a relief, as I live too far away to return it and postage would have cost more than the item itself.

A big thank you to Summer, the assistant who helped me — she was wonderful and made the whole process so simple. Truly fantastic customer service. Highly recommend Character.com!

Great products

Recently ordered a new school bag and shoes for my children from character. They are over the moon with them. The shoes seem to be well made and look exactly like you’d get from other leading children’s shoe store but at a fraction of the price. Hopefully they’ll last just as well too

Disappointin

I've bought from them in the past and was quite pleased, but things changed and their service is not what it used to be.
Before making my last order I've conacted them to ask several questions, including if they can actually deliver to my country, as there shipping problems there. The answer wasn't helpful, but as I wasn't told there's a problem the shipping, I went on and made the order.
The next day I got a refund. Just a refund. I had to contact them in order to discover that actually they don't ship to my country, and only then did they remove my country from theit shipping order.
In my communication with them they seemed really puzzled why I was annoyed with them. I feel like they wasted time, and right now, I'm not sure I'd bother to try again with them. I just hope they get their act together because they used to be quite nice.

The website is really slow

The website is really slow. Not very good when there’s 1000s of products on there to look through. It could take me days to search there Disney section.

Slow service and delivery

I agree, good materials designs etc, but there are many retailers that offer similar standards.
What bugs me is the delivery time, always takes a week to arrive.
My wife just today asked if our order can be expected as we are heading on holiday but the short answer was NO. So, waste of time ordering these.
Apparently Amazon delivers for these guys?! Amazon already advised the delivery is running late. Why Amazon?
Slow service...

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, the order you have placed with us is taking slightly longer to be shipped due to a very high number of orders which we are experiencing at the moment due to our sale, this will then take between 3-5 working days to be delivered , so should arrive shortly, if there is anything else I can help you with please contact us at customerservice@character.com

Kind regards
