  Service and customer care was Poor, very poor. Only one item received - and that differed from website description - and was delivered late!The other item proved to be unavailable, but no communication from John Lewis saying this until non-delivery of item queried! Plus John Lewis even took three days to answer that query, and then only with a limp apology stating that the item was unavailable because it had been 'returned to supplier'? Items ordered as presents, so lateness of delivery and communication (after 10 days, and then only after query) from John Lewis stating order was unavailable left no time to arrange replacements from elsewhere. When queried, only a single line response with a stock apology and made up reason. Poor service and poor customer care, extected better from John Lewis, have a regular shopper at John Lewis for over thirty years, but will give web site store a wide berth from now on!

  Attempt one - got less than half of products ordered. call up ask about other half, find out one item is missed off the list, did not know this as they did not send me an invoice telling me what items I had actually ordered! Never happened to me before. Called them told me the items never reached delivery firm, will resend 4 days later. It is now 4 days later, I call and they have booked my delivery for tomorrow! I will have to get off work early again to wait for it! Item I added to order is now coming with a seperate curior for some reason, that cannot deliver in the evening, not even sure how I am going to get this one and considering it is the xmas tree that is a bit of a worry. Who knows if the other half of the decorations will come tomorrow. I have complained and their complaints proceedure is apparently for me to send an email to a generic email address. Not sure if anything would come of it. I would never ever use them again
