Ordered 8 days ago.
Ordered 8 days ago.
Made several attempts to contact them. There's no telephone number and my shoes will not come before my holiday.
What's worse was I could have got them cheaper from another online retailer next day for slightly less... But I foolishly carried on waiting.
Since no one will answer me and they'll arrive whilst im on holiday (prolly not till after knowing these guys) ill open a PayPal dispute.
Terrible online store for a great product
Wow where do I start?
When you are buying from an official DC UK website you expect a decent level of service and reasonable delivery time right?
Wrong!!!
The warehouse for these goods is in Belgium/France and therefore it adds a lengthy processing and delivery times.
The customer service contact details are there, not a phone number however just an email address.
They won't reply to you though I tried on 5 to 6 occasions and nothing.
It's a tragedy as Dc shoes the product are excellent and I have worn them for a long long time.
Just don't buy them from here, there are plenty of other UK dealers who are in the UK who will dispatch quickly. You will have them in less than a week.
Update still not shipped after 2 weeks, customer service is non existent. Cannot cancel the order or change the delivery address either.
This really is the worst online store I have ever dealt with.
Very poor customer service and returns…
Very poor customer service and returns procedures! I have ordered 8 items from DC and 2 of them have arrived with damage present on the items. DC expect you to photograph the damage and send them pictures before they will potentially send you a label you can presumably print off yourself to return the faulty goods without incurring costs to the customer. They also take ages to process and ship your orders and to reply to emails. I would advise people to avoid them until their procedures and quality control improve.
Very bad customer service
AWFUL ABSOLUTELY AWFUL
AWFUL ABSOLUTELY AWFUL! The order has not been shipped for more than a week the customer service is very bad! DO NOT SHOP WOTH THEM, WORST COMPANY EVER NO RESPECT FOR THEIR CLIENTS.
Just plain confusion
Ordered a pair of shoes, did not receive any email confirmation until I emailed their customer service asking for one, received an email saying my order had shipped with a tracking number, but when I clicked on it showed a parcel being delivered to Belgium (I am in the UK). They then claimed that because the parcel could not be delivered it was being returned. Email only customer service has been less than helpful. Do not order from them!
*** Update***
They refunded me the price I payed for the shoes, but not shipping, despite them sending it to some unknown address in Belgium
Please be careful when placing orders
Ordered 2 pairs of shoes from their website this afternoon, upon finishing placing my order I received an error screen instead of a screen confirming my order had gone through. The screen literally read BUMMER! Then in a text box that doesn't read properly on a mobile told me the bummer was that it couldn't send me back to the websites homepage
As previously stated the text displayed at this point was unreadable and because it takes so long just for the order to show as placed on their website (over half an hour). It made it look like something went wrong and the order had not gone through so I placed the order again this was not the problem
The problem came after I noticed both orders where now sitting in processing on my account. I quickly went to their abysmal contact us section on their website to find no phone number and no live chat. The only option was an email form that I filled out, explained the situation and sent off, it is of my opinion this is the only system they have for the purposes of the farce I was greeted with next
The reply I received is printed below

Your Customer Care DCShoes
Thankfully I ordered with a credit card and they hadn't just eaten up my food budget for the month but still the very idea that they can't cancel an order with an hour of it being placed is utterly staggering it's not like they are some small time clothing website DC is one of the biggest brands on the planet
Still maintain the actual quality of their products is above almost all others but their infrastructure and customer service leaves plenty to be desired, please be very very careful when placing orders any small mistake will be paid for out of your pocket regardless if it is your fault or not
Absolute rubbish, orders to UK cancelled
Absolute rubbish, placed 4 or 5 orders, all of them been cancelled 'not in stock' / 'logistics issues' blah, blah, blah. No chance to speak to customer service. Best way to loose faithfull customers!!!
Have been a DC fan for some years...
Have been a buyer of DC Shoes and clothing for many years, usually from the high street. Due to the pandemic and needing new shoes and some t-shirts I finally braved their website. Since August 2021 I have had 3 orders of varying sizes all of which were received in 5 working days, their loyalty scheme is fair if you often purchase their products and the quality is what I've become accustomed to. There are frequently deals/offers which helps with the budget and all of my orders have been delivered by DPD so fair warning the day before delivery and a 1hr delivery slot (provided you get a driver willing to wait the 60seconds it takes to get down the stairs) I've only had to deal with customer services once regarding a loyalty points issue which was resolved via web chat in under 5 minutes.
One thing to be aware of - Shoe sizes tend to be a bit tight, I've had many pairs of Nets, Graffiks, Pure, Versatile and Stags over the years and I always need a half to a full size up. I often wonder if this is cos Ken Block likes to exaggerate... Another thing to note (which is a bit weird to me) if you order footwear and clothing they will arrive in separate packages. My first order was 3 pairs of shoes and 4 t-shirts, shoes were delivered in a box with ample room spare for the t-shirts, yet they were packed in a separate poly bag.
Absolute joke
Absolute joke. Ordered shoes on 22nd December and appreciated they would take longer than usual. Heard nothing until 25th Jan when I chase it up. They refund me stating "there weren't any available to fulfil your order". So... why take and keep my money???
DC-JOKE
What an absolute joke of a company. Ordered shoes on 13th Jan for my son's birthday on 21st, was aware that they might not arrive in time but would arrive shortly after.
What a joke as they haven't even been sent yet.
Received a shipping confirmation email on the 19th finally until I checked the tracking number to discover that does has not even received my item yet so no possible way have they been sent yet.
Have asked for my money back so I can purchase a pair elsewhere and told no refunds or cancellations so now I have to wait for them to arrive so that I can send them right back and then get a refund.
Their terms and conditions state that they process all orders within 24hrs yet my order wasn't processed until 18th and delivery from Belgium is 7-10 days yet 6 days after I placed my order and they haven't even been sent.
Don't waste your time or money.
Good quality trainers
I didn't deal with their website (bought trainers in a store) but I normally get through trainers very quickly - I wore these a lot and they lasted me very well and were very comfy.
Great price, good delivery time
After reading the reviews i was very sceptical and I thought I wont receive anything. I emailed them a few days after placing my order, they’ve sent me the tracking number and 1 day later dpd local delivered everything in the right size, brand new condition. They’ve even gave me a return label ( return in UK ,not in Belgium)
I don’t know if the delivery address is anything to do with it ( I live in London) but everything was fine.
order was well past the due date
order was well past the due date, tried tracking and only ever saw one update i.e no movement on the package.
i attempted e times to mail customer service via the website and no response at all.
only after searching a phone number did i get in touch. After a couple more days the parcel was deemed to the lost.
i was however offered a refund but i really wanted the gifts i had purchased and promised.
i was quoted "logistical issues when i belive the true story was that one item was no longer available in the size and both items were no longer on sale.
sorry to say im done with DC's
Pleasantly surprised
Ordered a hoodie, was a little worried after reading reviews, but did think most people maybe go on here to review when they've had bad service. Anyway, ordered on a Tuesday, given tracking info, arrived a week later, which considering coming from France didn't think was bad. Nice hoodie, good price, so overall happy and glad I gave it a go. Unfortunately now keep getting sales emails in French!!
DC shoes 👟. 🙌
I ordered then read reviews ..😏.
To my suprise a fast delivery 🚚 regular updates ,
All goods arrived together same day in two separate packages ,
I ordered four pairs of shoes one of which was free ,order 2 get third free....😁👌
1 X DC pure hi top
1 x DC cure hi top
1 x DC striker white
1 x DC striker blue...
All shoes were of good quality ..😉👌
All shoes were ordered in a size 8 UK.
ALL shoes came in a size 8 however they all fit differently
DC Pure hi top great fit
DC cure hi top far to small like a size 7
DC striker white ..a slightly small size 8 length good width size
DC striker blue , to small like a size 7 1/2
It baffles me how the same company with such a following and had such a great reputation has lost its way.....! Great delivery and customer service , but can't understand how the sizes are so different between shoes they must all have to follow guidelines to measure with the same model foot...😏. 👟
Come on DC get it together...! ,You have a big fan base , and alot of followers...! We love Your style and quality...! Order# 9329356
Do yourself a favour, just shop somewhere else
I bought a set of high top shoes from them two weeks ago. Returned them via Royal Mail signed for service, and thankfully paid via PayPal (so I have a chance of opening a dispute to get money back).
Shoes come up half a size too small, so consider this if you must buy from this frankly terrible to deal with company.
E-mailed them twice to confirm the return, all ignored. Now opened a dispute with PayPal. Thankfully i returned the item with Royal Mail signed for service as after 2 weeks no sign of any refund.
Do yourself a favour, if you buy this brand don't buy direct. If you do buy via a high street distributor be prepared for issues if you have a warranty issue. This is a company hiding behind covid for incredibly poor customer service.
I give very few poor reviews on here, and only give them when I feel a company is seriously reneging on its responsibility. Go buy Vans, Converse or something else from a skate shop and save yourself a load of hassle.
Don't event bother, get Vans...
Should have checked here before I ordered!
A 1 Star review is far too much credit to this company! Having placed orders in the past with no issue I went to get a couple of new pairs of shoes. When I got to the checkout I see there are 3 old addresses along side my current address. So I think as I'm never going need to order to my old homes or workplaces again I delete all 3 addresses, leaving 1 up to date address. I go through the checkout and everything looks ok. I get an email confirmation and the billing address is correct, but the delivery address is one I've deleted.
I email customer support about their mistake and they say if I've made a mistake I should return the order when it arrives. Don't think they read my message at all. How am I supposed to return items I do want from an address I won't be able to retrieve them from (an old office for a company an no longer work at and that are not at the address any more anyway). I email back and explain I just need the delivery address to be changed to the billing address as per the details I supplied on the website.
They come back to me a second time still claiming this is my mistake and suggest that I can update my addresses on my account but they will not update the address on the order (even though it's not dispatched yet) and I will just have to wait to see if the delivery fails and wait for it to be returned to them to get a refund.
I again reply to explain that this is their mistake and they should just update the address on their system. They are after all attempting to send to an address I did not give them and that was deleted from my account before I placed the order. Having worked in eCommerce for a number of years I'm well aware this is technically possible up to the point the order is handed over to the courier, and just a mild inconvenience on their part, but hey, it's their mistake.
At this point they stop replying to me, I've sent a series of email so follow up, but I get nothing back. I'm not sure why they think this kind of childish behaviour is acceptable. It really is a simple request, please change the shipping address to the one I chose at the checkout. I don't know why they are being so awkward about it.
Like may other people have said, their customer service is shocking and I don't think I will be buying from them again.
Item missing from order - Impossible to speak to anyone
Item was missing from my order. Contact forms on the website are useless. No other way to get in contact.
Daylight robbery, if only I'd seen the Trustpilot reviews beforehand. Instead I instinctively trusted a huge supposedly reputable brand.
