no tracking updates, no way to get assistance, no help whatsoever, their website says to chat to them via a button that does not exist. Awful awful company and service, becoming as bad as Evri, which is as bad as you can get.
I believe this is the third item that has been entrusted to Whistle that hasn't been delivered.
What are they doing with all this stuff!!
Worst company going. Just put attempted delivery even though it wasn’t. Phones/offices always closed even during the times they say are open.
Absolutely Awful...I had to re organise my work schedule 2 days waiting for a delivery that never arrived on its due date. They basically lied about when it was in transit but clearly this was a lie...cheap and awful courier company ...DO NOT USE.
Zero stars.
Package has been at depot a month (obviously lost..) and no way to contact them.
Luckily I’ve been refunded by the seller.
With al these bad reviews why are companies still using them??
Surely it’s not cost effective to have to refund customers constantly?
Tracking is beyond useless. Every package ends up stuck at depot for days on end or gets deliveredtothewrong address. I will stop using Music Magpie altogether if they continue to use Whistl. I've had Orders from the USA & China arrive much faster then items from within the UK!
I hate whistl I bought a dvd from music magpie promised within a day delivery I waited for a week for a refund and saying they lost it I hate this delivery service
Music Magpie service and reputation is suffering because of the sloppiness and apparent incompetence of the Whistl tracking system and delivery service. It is a shame. Music Magpie used to be a great company to deal with.
USA customer here, I ordered an item through Walmart via musicMagpie (I love them). I placed the order back on September 17th. Over a month went by and I started to wonder what was going on. I was confused because the first time I ordered from mM, their shipping was perfect, even with me being in another country. I reached out to them and a customer service rep named Paul said it was shipped around that date. He included the tracking number. It was there that I discovered that the problem is Whistl. There were only 2 tracking updates over the span of a month. What happened? Where is my package? And perhaps the best question of all: What are they doing with everyone’s packages once they get them? Hoarding them for themselves? Completely unacceptable. What a horrible move for Magpie to switch to this abomination of a company. I will NEVER order a thing from them again until they ditch Whistl. Point blank, period.
May as well whistl into the wind. Multiple packages lost through this company. I now go out of my way to not use them
Never had any issues ordering from Music Magpie on eBay, but it seems they've recently switched to Whistl as their courier and now it's an absolute joke. I've had two Music Magpie orders gone missing in the last month. One was claimed to have been delivered on a day when I was at home all day - having searched around my property nothing was there. A second parcel was claimed to have been delivered at 3 AM - total fabrication - who's delivering at that time? I now have another Music Magpie order, tracking shows the item has been stuck at their warehouse for the last week. Doubtful I'll receive it. What are they doing with these parcels?
Appalling service, parcel picked from vendor 12 days ago and no further updates.
I cannot fathom how they can be in business
Item stuck at depot for a week. No tracking updates since. No way to talk to an operator - only a very basic automated chat which gives no answers. Their website is so basic it's laughable.
Music Magpie: stop using them!
Have come to the conclusion they don't deliver to my address in London as the last three items sent with them have not arrived. If you find a company using them then just a matter of counting down the days until asking for a refund.
I had a message to say my parcel had been delivered but it hasn’t . Nobody had been to my house all day. I know that because I have reviewed the footage on my security camera . Dreadful service
How do they remain in business ?
Have had 4 packages not arrive recently on as many occasions. Tracking says delivered. .. untrue .. no knock at the door etc was in all day on those occasions. Totally hopeless as others before me have said. I had no choice with Whistl as they were the preferred choice of the retailers I was purchasing from. Too many poor performing companies in the UK. ...
2 of my small packages delivered to the wrong address on 2 consecutive days, despite clearly typewritten labels with correct address. Then again on 12/10/2025, I received small envelope that was delivered to another wrong address, or rather was left OUTSIDE the front door on 9/10! I am still waiting for other items which tracking says "delivered"! Where to though, is anyone's guess! Have sent an email to Customer Services, awaiting response.
just left package (dvd) poked into letter box, by time had got to door (30 seconds) he was shooting off in his crash helmet towards his bike with a cheery smile like that makes it ok.
Ordered from music magpie via eBay like I have so many times before with no issues. But this time 3 cds coming as 2 separate parcels. 1 saying delivered at 03.24am on Tuesday 7th October not received. Who delivers at that time??
Second parcel not received but saying delivered Wednesday 8th October. There logo should say you can whistl for it. Diabolical service
