Absolutely outstanding customer service…

Absolutely outstanding customer service from the company. I had problems with the courier return and a query with one of the dresses. Instant, personal response from Bettina. She went above and beyond to make sure I received my refund and that I received the dress I wanted. She was fantastic. Friendly, professional service and goes without saying just how beautiful the dresses are. Can highly recommend.

Slow refund policy

Returned item using DPD drop off at my local Post office on the 20th July 2023. Still no refund as off the 9th August. Wouldn’t buy from them again. I am £254 out of pocket. Ordered from Debenhams, Quiz and New Look at the same time and returned items and refunds were given quickly. Don’t recommend.

I got an email on the 8th August stating that it would take another 10days for the money to go back in to my account. Very poor when we are in a cosy of living crisis.

Hi Siobhan, sorry to hear of your issue with your refund. We have just checked the system and it appears you have been refunded already. Please check your spam for the refund email (incase we have ended up there). Thanks again

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

fantastic customer service

I think the customer service of the brand is outstanding. After their archive sale I had some issues with things going wrong and I think the way it was handled by Bettina was amazing. They went out of their way to make me feel valued and help me rush an order that I needed for a wedding.
Thanks a lot!

Purchased the beautiful Heater dress and better than expected. Purchased two sizes and kept the one that was my size. The embroidery and beads are beautiful. Returning the other one had no issues with and refunded within five days of returning

Similar complaint to many recent…

Follow up: returns label sent and refund actioned quickly after initial complaint.

Similar complaint to many recent reviews. No returns label given, followed the instructions to receive a label by email and after 3 days still waiting and no reply, 2 follow up emails sent. I have also contacted you on the contact us section on the website. It’s unacceptable not to give a returns label and then leave it this long when the returns window is only 14 days long! Won’t be ordering again when the returns process is this difficult.

Follow up: returns label sent and return

Hi Hannah, Apologise our warehouse did run our of returns labels to put into customers parcels for a week, this has now been resolved. We have extended our returns to 21 days to allow for customers to request one from us or the link can be found on our returns section on site. So please do not worry about your returns period.

Please ensure to only email us once, as if you repetitively email us it stacks your email with the date of last emailed, rather than first. So apologise i can see you have been waiting 1.5 days for a response. We have responded with your label now

Will definitely keep in mind for future occasions

I've always found it difficult to find dresses that flatter my figure without looking too conservative. Hope & Ivy offers more variety of styles, lengths, and colours than most brands, and I've found their delivery services to be very reliable when ordering. I recently wore their Sharon wrap dress to a wedding and not only felt comfortable, but received multiple compliments! I've never been very confident in my arms, but this dress took away all my worries - I'll definitely be buying from them again in the future!

Poor customer service

Poor customer service. Returned item, was told up to 10 days AFTER it has been received in warehouse. Ridiculous amount of time to wait for a refund.
Still waiting....day 7

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. 14 day returns but you can only return with a DPD returns label which they don't send to you and it cannot be downloaded online. No phone number and the customer support email address does not respond. I will not order again!

I am still waiting to return my item…

I am still waiting to return my item even though i have emailed several times. I have been overcharged also on the receipt. Not impressed with the returns process and as yet stuck with a dress of poor quality. Would not buy from this website again

Not cool return behaviour

I returned the Mila dress via can royal mail and Hope and Ivy received this on 21st July.

The same day I got a stock alert that I had turned on from when i was trying to buy the dress originally, as dress was out of stock in nearly all sizes so i would have been hoping someone would return so i could buy the dress. I had been waiting for weeks checking every few days online as well.

So same day they get the return it is back in stock... clearly my return since stock was scarce on this dress.

Hope and Ivy, what isn't acceptable is holding my money when you not only have the dress but have it online to be resold. Yet I am still not refunded.

To me if they process the dress to resell online, doesn't that mean the return is processed and they should refund me as part of that process?

Apparently not. I got an email from them when I queried this saying I have to wait 10 working days. So they are quick to take my money, quick to put the return back online but not so quick returning your money even though its been processed and they are making money off my return.

I will never shop here again, really is underhand what they are doing.

Hi

Just to reassure you we would never re-sell your return without processing your refund first, and our system simply wouldn't allow it. We purchased 100s of these dresses so it was more than likely it was another customers dress that was available to buy on site.

I'm Beth the owner and we simply don't run our business like you suggest. I am happy to help you first hand to ensure this, please drop me a call on 07812538710 if this query has not been resolved for you yet, thanks

I ordered a Hope & Ivy dress from ASOS

I ordered a Hope & Ivy dress from ASOS. I paid £85. The first time I ordered the dress had a white stain on the chest so I returned it to ASOS and bought another. I wore the dress without a stain to a wedding, I washed my hands with soap and some water splashed on to the fabric and it stained it instantly. The fabric is so cheap and easily damaged for £85. I got one wear out of the dress. I've also commented this on multiple instagram posts to warn other potential customers but Hope&Ivy keep deleting the comment. I'd really avoid

Hope & Ivy's customer service has been an absolute dream.

Unfortunately I didn't receive correct dresses, (mistakes happen!!), I dropped the team an email and my query was dealt with and a refund issued in a matter of days.

Big thanks to Bettina, a real asset to your CS team.
