LK Bennett Reviews 

I Ordered a pair of sandals, my card has been charged, but no sandals have arrived. It is a month later. Scam!!!!

I had a bad experience with LKB. During the period when the website was being closed, I was still able to return the item and I received proof of delivery for the return. The items were received by them, but the money was never refunded to my card. In the end, they kept both the returned items and my money.

I ordered several items from LKB and since the 7th May I've been trying to speak to someone in Customer Service regarding a refund. I have sent a number of e.mails and left several VM messages but have heard nothing. Unfortunately I missed the deadline for getting a refund as was in hospital after breaking my hip. I have explained this in my countless e.mails and VMs, I would be happy to pay for the postage and have been trying to locate an address for the warehouse but i haven't been able to find anything! Does anyone know an address where i can return my items? I'm getting the impression that Customer Service no longer exists and judging by the comments ive been reading there's a lot of people having the same problems I'm encountering. I have given one star for the customer "I don't care" team as i would of given zero if that was an option.

They are dollar store quality very light sandals. I was not happy when I found out that they were coming from China. Horrible customer service i have asked for a refund. I can get the sane sandals at the dollar store

Dreadful customer service

0013642101 Refund £29.80

That is a total of £972.81 in Refunds owed to me.

As I write this email the total refunds I can confirm I have received was only totalling £418.77. I am still missing Refunds worth: £554.04.

I have been chasing their customer service for weeks and nothing. Concerned that because they are closing, I won’t get my refunds. I hope they do the right thing and refund the funds owed to me.

I am very disappointed to share a deeply upsetting and distressing experience at Canary Wharf store on Saturday, 11th April 2026, at around 4:30 pm.

I was shopping with my daughter in the shoe section, and from the outset we were polite and respectful customers. Despite this, the store manager was immediately rude and dismissive, refusing to assist us and stating, “No, I’m not going to help you.”

Shortly afterwards, while we were calmly trying on shoes we intended to purchase (and ultimately did purchase 2 shoes), her behaviour escalated. She became increasingly aggressive and hostile and instructed us to clean and organise the entire shoe display along the back wall, effectively asking us to carry out staff duties. Her tone was intimidating and completely disproportionate, particularly in a busy store where other customers were also handling items, yet we were the only ones singled out.

We were repeatedly spoken to in a rude, aggressive, and demeaning manner and were referred to as “acting like animals” and “messy,” despite remaining calm throughout. As two South Asian women, I strongly felt we were being racially profiled and unfairly targeted compared to other customers. At one point, her behaviour left us feeling uncomfortable and intimidated. Other customers also became concerned and intervened, asking her to leave us alone.

The situation escalated further when she refused to serve us at the till, stating that she would not complete our purchase and that we “did not deserve to be served.” This was extremely shocking, particularly as we were paying customers attempting to complete a legitimate transaction.

She then called Canary Wharf security to complain about us. However, when they arrived, they intervened and made it clear that she could not refuse service to paying customers or instruct customers to carry out staff responsibilities. They handled the situation professionally, listened to both sides, confirmed that her behaviour was unacceptable, and apologised to us in her presence before ensuring that another member of staff completed our purchase.

We have lived in the Canary Wharf area for over 20 years and have never experienced anything like this before. We also run our own business locally and understand the importance of proper customer service, which makes this experience even more disappointing.

While we are grateful for the professionalism of the security team, the behaviour of the store manager was aggressive, rude, discriminatory, and extremely distressing. It left us feeling unfairly treated, singled out, and uncomfortable, and we sincerely hope this matter is taken seriously and properly investigated.

After countless emails to customer service,forget trying to telephone them they are not taking calls, I am more than £300 out of pocket. Having been really happy with lk bennet over the years I am now extremely upset that they can take your money and not deliver the items. Legally I am not sure how to recuperate this money and it says their website is closing.

I have been double charged for an order of £690.20 and only received 4 of the 6 items I ordered. So I have been charged an amount of £690.20 for the full order..and £556.10 for same order minus the 2 amounts of the missing items....so £690.20 + £556.10 = £ 1246.30.
And I have only received goods worth £556.10. Nobody has responded to my emails. I have been a loyal customer of LK Bennett for years and this is how they treat their customers! Rotten unscrupulous disgusting treatment!!!

BE VERY CAREFUL AND TAKE ALL NEGATIVE REVIEWS SERIOUSLY. I Placed order. Heard nothing. I Chased….. to be told order cancelled as stock not available. So why accept order with “ your order was successful “ email? Took me to chase delivery to find that out. Company is in a chaotic mess and not just financially.

Be aware of this company have taken my money with no hesitation however I have not received the goods
I have called a few time and followed up with a email still no response

Please be forewarned everyone. Ordered 2 dresses, one arrived in crumbled envelope, the other was not in envelope and no information sent on its absence. No on answers phone and email not responded to. Out of pocket by £74.75 . Luckily the dress that arrived fits. Don't bother to order online as they are under administration, you'll be the last and least important creditor to receive money back for failed service.

I ordered a handbag in February to match shoes I had bought for my daughter’s wedding. I was charged £113, but when the bag arrived it had a sales tag attached stating £56. I emailed the company and got a rude reply staying I had been charged the online price. I arranged a return and paid the postage of £4.95. I returned the bag via Royal Mail and got proof of posting. However tracking shows the parcel is stuck in Royal Mails Corby warehouse showing postage not paid. I would advise anyone considering purchasing from this company to think again as returns are not being processed.

Very bad and costly experience returning an online purchased item. 2 weeks ago, I used the LK Bennett return service and paid £4.95 to return a dress! The item is being held by Royal Mail as LK Bennett have not paid enough postage. Customer service initially told me that the problem is with their returns company and not them. Currently, they are not answering the phone and live chat is offline. With no refund likely, this has cost me about £138.00. I will be contacting my credit card company.

You have been warned.

Ordered two dresses. Arrived in a large, very battered and flimsy cardboard box, rolled up inside together in a single piece of tissue paper. Box was left outside in the rain so the dresses were damp and crumpled. Returned both, unable to return in store as had paid by Apple Pay so had to pay another £4.95 to return.
Would never shop online with LKBennett again, dreadful experience and a very stark contrast to an instore experience

Really bad experience returning online purchased item. I had to pay for postage and then pay again for the bounce back of the parcel because according to Royal Mail - LKB not responding - so my parcel was returned back to me. In order to collect this parcel from Royal Mail I had to pay £7 penalty.
No refund from LKB. I tried calling - no response.

I have ordered twice from the website recently and they order never arrived. As it was an international order there were international credit card charges which they took months to refund the first time and now the second time are still disputing. It’s my fault for not learning my lesson and ordering again after the terrible experience the first time . Never ever order from them

To warn LKBennett customers: track deliveries, returns, charges and refunds very carefully, or consider not buying from them at all.
I have been charged twice for an item that wasn't delivered. The customer care line is not answered because they are 'busy' and email responses take weeks. I was eventually promised a refund which hasn't arrived.
A thoroughly unpleasant experience and I remain out of pocket by £236.30!

Great delivery and amazing returns when required. Speedy and so efficient. Definitely will be buying here again.

Wow all these bad reviews. Ordered a jacket, arrived within 4 days unfortunately it was too small and had to send back. I received my refund within a couple of days maybe I was just one of the lucky ones.
