Quality of lights poor and long delays on delivery.

Ordered outside wall lights. Delivery took twice as long as originally advised, although communication about the delay once Holloways was contacted was extremely good. Having then installed the lights (used a qualified electrician) one stopped working after a couple of days, so while the lights look high quality, this didn’t translate into being functional. Very disappointed as lights expensive, took a long time to arrive (over four months) and one out of six doesn’t work!

Hi Suzanne,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I’m very sorry for the disappointment caused.
We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to wait so long for your outside lights, only to then have one fail shortly after installation, especially after investing in both the products and professional fitting.
While we’re pleased to hear our team communicated well once contacted, this certainly does not make up for the inconvenience caused overall.
Please contact our customer service team at customerservice@hollowaysofludlow.com with your order details, as we would really like the opportunity to look into this properly and help resolve the issue for you.

Regards,
Holloways of Ludlow team

Store credit of no use as I will not buy from them again.

This unfortunatley is the 2nd time I have to give a bad review. 3 pendant kitchen lights delivered to wrong address 3 times. Paid my electrician to fit them. 2 were broken and the 3rd was unsafe to hang as the fitting was the same as the 2 broken ones. Holloways sent out 3 new flex and fitments to the wrong address again.. We have had to go collect each wrongly delivered parcel;. My Electrician came again to fit them so I had to pay him again.. I contacted Holloways and they offered me store credit. NO thank you wouldnt buy any thing from them again.

Hi Marianne,

We’re very sorry to read about your experience and completely understand your frustration.
Having your order repeatedly delivered to the wrong address, receiving damaged and unsafe fittings, and then facing additional electrician costs is simply not the level of service we aim to provide.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and stress this has caused you.
Please contact our customer service team directly at customerservice@hollowaysofludlow.com, as we would really appreciate the opportunity to review this properly and discuss a more suitable resolution with you.
We have also raised the delivery address issue internally with our web team to ensure this is corrected going forward.

Excellent Customer Service and Product Knowledge.

I really enjoyed my impromptu visit to the Bath Store. The staff were really knowledgeable, generous with their time, very happy to discuss products and design and were exceptionally pleasant to deal with. I felt that I had received a really high standard of customer service.

Everything excellent except........

Everything excellent except the mess up on the original order in which the wrong colour was ordered for me by Holloways. The mistake was dealt with well but in the end it did take rather a long time.
