Returns and delivery take an eternity
Returns and delivery take an eternity. I still haven't received my order from August 21st, or any correspondence regarding it.
Emails also either take an eternity or there's no response. The phone system, when calling is also inefficient.

Poor experience and high prices but forced to purchase due to school’s uniform policy
Kids grow fast, so sizes often don’t fit. Making customers pay to return items is unfair and not what people expect from online shopping today. The exchange process is frustrating—there’s no easy way to swap items. Instead, customers have to cancel their order, wait for a refund, and then buy the item again. And when they do, they’re charged again for delivery. On top of that, the prices are higher than similar products sold on other websites. This mix of poor service, high costs, and extra fees makes it a very unpleasant experience.

Ordered something but not been told…
Ordered something but not been told when it will arrive or when the shop is open. Dreadful communication as usual.

No size chart, Charge shipping every time
The website is not hard to navigate indeed but there is no size chart on most items, eg, no lengths and sleeve lengths for the pullover, no hip size for the PE shorts. And since there is no shop for trying items on, you can only order based on guess work.
Although the address is local, you cannot pick up from the office. You HAVE TO pay for shipping. So when you want to change to a different size, you have to pay for shipping again. I would say that is not fair!!

Thank you for leaving us a review
We're sorry to learn that you are not pleased with the shipping costs associated with your orders. We have worked hard to keep our costs down for delivery, since the school took the decision to close the onsite shop. We were instructed by the school that Direct Clothing provide parents an online only service.
All the stock is held at our fullfillment centre based in Wolverhampton and unfortunatley we do not have the capacity to have orders collected from the admin office.
We have taken on board your feedback regarding sizing guides and are looking to improve this

Apologies in advance
Apologies in advance, but...Purchasing bare minimum because of poor quality and sizing total disappointment. I wouldn't purchase if school would not dictate it. We are facing now a skin condition since last year (and medical bills), when my son first started using uniform, that simply doesn't go away.
