Access Denied !

I've been a customer of JD Williams for decades, I recently attempted to log into my account and was met with an "Access Denied" page. I called customer service line to investigate, I was dismissed by an overseas call centre agent who informed me that my account had been permanently closed due to a period of inactivity. My account was deactivated without any prior notice, warning, or communication from JD Williams. Because of how this closure has been processed on their servers, they have blacklisted my home internet connection. I am completely locked out of accessing their website! I have emailed them with a formal complaint!

Item ordered weeks late and damaged. Not been provided with a sensible route to refund.

Absolutely terrible experience. The item arrived weeks and weeks late and when it did, it arrived completely damaged ( the armchair and the box it came in ). I am now being asked to organise for the armchair to be returned in order to get a refund. I have advised the box it was sent to me in is not in a fit state to send back and therefore requested to be provided with a box to send the armchair in, otherwise, why should I have to go out of my way to buy a new box to return this item in? Horrific experience altogether.

I am confused

I have just spent an hour trying to find a product advertised on TV by JD Williams. Why are they allowed to do this if the dress seemingly doesn't exist. I would have liked to become a customer but have no confidence in them now.

No refund on postage , beware

Ordered an item, it didn’t fit and was not very nice, they now charge delivery, but if item doesn5 fit and needs returning one still has to pay postage, not acceptable. Will definitely not beordering again, or accepting emails .

Would advise that delivery date is not correct was assured by 4 agents and on the confirmation email my order would be here within 5 working days at the latest I have chased up every day to be promised the same thing, I placed an order Sunday for a hot tub and was assured it would be here on Friday, it is now Friday and have now been told it will not arrive until Monday, however nobody will be here to collect it and I have booked the day off today to ensure I’m here to sign for it

Jetwash was never delivered.

Jetwash was never delivered.
Jd williams got my address wrong.
They then would not deliver to correct address. They then would not refund the £269 back to my card.
Jet wash was ordered 18th April 2026. And 6 weeks later they still have my money.. beware they don't deliver ..beware they take your money and don't refund. if I don't get a refund after next week 7th week then I have then got to claim money back via master card.
This is a nightmare company who have a history of deliveries going missing...beware don't use this company.

I placed an order for a kitchen…

I placed an order for a kitchen appliance online. I was given an order date which was a ten days after I made the order. A couple of days before my expected delivery date I had received an email saying that there was high demand for this product that I had ordered and it would be delayed. Just over a week later I was asked to arrange another delivery date which I had made. Three days after I arranged this delivery I received another email saying that the demand is high for this product and I won’t be receiving it on the arranged date and they would be in touch to arrange another delivery date.
If I had to wait for over six weeks from the time I ordered this product I would be asking myself do I actually need it.

Do not order Large items

Please do not order any Large items from this Company,you have no chance of a Return/Refund if like me,your item arrives damaged.
I am so disgusted and can not believe that they can get away with this kind of Service what about the Consumer Rights Act 2015 you should be able under Law entitled to Return for a full refund if item is damaged.Seems that does not include J D Williams?

Remind me why I stopped buying from…

Remind me why I stopped buying from you? Yes many
reasons and here is another. I have contacted you three times with a promise of a reply within 24hrs. Nothing. I ordered from you a bench and a bistro table and the matching chairs. Given a date and time for the bench to be delivered. Delivery driver arrived came to door went to van came back said he could not find our item. Eventually it turned up a few days later damaged and scuffed paint. Then the table and chairs where booked for delivery different company phone call on morning of delivery sorry they couldn't find them? Now they are ready for delivery on Friday this week a week later. I have paid £10 for one large item delivery and £3.99 for the other item. So I have paid £13.99 for the items to be lost damaged, cancelled and a rearranged delivery. This is just not good enough and all so have had NO replies to my messages.

Customer service in need of improvement

Customer service not organised, helpful or even responsive. I placed a high value furniture order which arrived damaged and this was confirmed by myself and the courier via images and no resolution has been offered.
*UPDATE*
Resolution given after some time. Thankful for this but still not a great overall experience. Hopefully it was just a one off! Customer service and packaging needs more care.

This is one of the worst companies I…

This is one of the worst companies I have had the displeasure of dealing with. I returned 2 x items in one bag (as requested) used their returns label and got a proof of posting over the counter at my local Royal Mail branch, as requested. BUT I have not received my refund. Contacted this company via Facebook Messenger and waited more than 2 DAYS for them to reply to me. I was asked the same questions over and over again, verify this, that and the other. I complied with all their requests ... they have never got back to me!! So, then contacted JD Williams via their 'Live Chat' the customer service operator went through all the same questions (again answered fully by me) and finally he said I would receive my refund in 24 hours ....... Yep you've guessed it, I still haven't had my refund and I have now waited 10 days!!! Dishonest, badly run company! DO NOT USE THESE DECEITFUL COWBOYS!!!
