Dreadful

Purchased a mannequin online. Have been trying to arrange a return. Nobody is coming back to me. In store personnel don't know what a mannequin is, nobody can assist.

Avoid. The worst company to deal with

Even though we changed provider
They are STILL trying to debit our Revolut. Thankfully they are blocked.
Worst company to deal with. They try to get you to pay a month forward and don't take your deposit off your current bill. I have cancelled my direct debit in order to try to get someone to return my calls. Wouldn't mind but it's my first month with them. And yuno, please don't leave a reply saying "contact customer service " it's impossible.

Hi Regina,

I tried looking for your account with your name so I could try and help you but I could not find it. I have sent a request to you to provide some details to help me locate your Yuno energy account.

Sorry to hear that our advance billpay system isn't to your liking. The system actually has many benefits and can help give you insight and eliminate shocking bills.

We predict how much electricity you will use each month from your current and previous usage. You then pay, by debit or credit card, based on our Prediction (kWh & €).

Example

You make a €95 payment on your chosen billing date

You keep tabs on your daily usage and spending through the Forecast

You adjust your activities based on how it compares to our Prediction

You pinpoint and reduce your peak-use periods throughout the month

Your actual electricity consumption for the Billing Period amounts to €80

We deduct €15 from your next bill!

Hopefully this explanation has helped give you clarity on how we bill and why we do it.
Kind regards,
Sasha,
Yuno Energy Team

Beginning to be concerned

Beginning to be concerned. Sent canine samples 7 weeks ago, from Ireland, supposedly, to Ireland. About 2 weeks later I recieved a sample recieved email.
Nothing since.....
I emailed last week, and this was the reply, which was from the UK:
Reference Number: EDLI-BRD157961IE and EDLI-BRD157960IE

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, there are no updates yet in your case file. As soon as an update is available, the admin team will let you know.

Thanks and regards,

I am beginning to feel that this is a scam. I do hope not. Their website says results take 5 days.
Edit: it is now April 1st, and still no results.

Dear Regina,

Thank you for your review, and I completely understand your concern. Waiting for results without clear updates can be frustrating, especially when expectations are based on shorter turnaround times.

I’d like to reassure you that your samples were safely received by the laboratory on 5 March 2026, and your case is currently progressing within the normal processing timeframe. For this specific analysis, the turnaround time is approximately three weeks from the laboratory receipt date, rather than the shorter timeframe mentioned on the website, which applies to other types of tests.

We also identified a small administrative issue on our side that affected the timing of one of the automated notifications you received. This has now been addressed internally, and I sincerely apologise for any confusion it may have caused.

Please be assured that this is not a scam, and your case is actively being processed. I am personally monitoring your file and will make sure you are updated as soon as the results are available.

If you have any further questions or would like an update at any time, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help and ensure everything is handled smoothly for you.

Kind regards,

Review of Dyson Ireland


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Don't believe the next day delivery hype

Dyson promises next day delivery.
They do not honour this pledge.
Make sure you are not depending on them to honour it.
I placed my order yesterday and the An Post representative did not have it this morning.
I contacted Dyson and their agent rammed it down my throat that it would be delivered today. I told him that the post had already been delivered and the item was not. He still insisted that it would be delivered today. Needless to say? It didn't happen.
If they are going to pledge next day delivery, they need to use a courier, not the post office.

Slightly disappointed

Delivery as promised. Delivery men were very nice, however, I was left to unpack the smeg fridge myself. There was a pallet on the top and bottom, full aerboard surrounds, and strap sealed cardboard. The gentleman said that it was just his job to deliver it.
I am a 66 year old female. It took me a long, strenuous time to remove the packaging. A little helm would have gone a long way.

Review of Brown Thomas

Not very honest

Purchased the 2025 advent calendar. I was very disappointed to find it contained some samples given out by brands. I contacted customer services, who fobbed me off by saying that "not for resale " meant that they were produced for the calendar...which they had sold..to me. I have been given these samples many times in-store, I know a free sample when I see it. CS told me to return the calendar, at my own expense, knowing that obviously I had already opened it. Not a great display of honesty, Ciprain in customer services needs to know that the customer is always right. Particularly loyal ones.

Awful customer service

Ordered on 6th of September. Not delivered yet. I have been in line to speak to an agent since 9.48. It is now 10.54 and I have been next in the queue for 30 minutes. This company need to hire more agents, or get rid of the ones they have. Edited to add, I gave up at 11.20. 1 hour 30 minutes. I guess that's what they hope people will do.

Awful customer service

Received 3 deliveries today. One item was supposed to be a two piece, in fact, only the waistcoat was in the bag, and it reeked of cheap perfume. It was obviously something that someone else had returned. The returns portal expects me to pay for the return.
Emailed customer service, no response. Contacted them on Facebook messenger, as requested by their website, at 13.49 today. It is now 17.39 almost 4 hours later, and no response, even though I have kept messenger open.

Awful online service

Returned shoes within 48 hours of receiving them. That was 21 days ago and still no refund. And yes, I have contacted customer service and they basically said, wait.
Doubt that would happen if you were in the UK.

Don't believe the promises

Don't believe the next day delivery hype. Ordered a quite expensive bag on 19th February (Track ID: 614725185) for an event on the 21st, now on 23rd of February and not delivered. Stick to Riverisland folks.

Dreadful customer service

Purchased an book on December 24th. It is now 18th of January and it has not been delivered. They use the worst courier in Ireland, namely fastway. Customer service simply don't care. They are refusing a refund, despite it being 25 days now. My auditor recommended this company and he is solely disappointed that he did.

Dear Regina Hetherington,

Thank you for writing your review for Blackwell's. We are very sorry for the delay in receiving your order on this occasion and for it taking longer than the usual 10-15 business days to arrive safely with you.

In regard to requesting a refund, for international orders, we advise to allow 25 business days (term excludes weekends and bank holidays) for an item to arrive before we can discuss next steps with an order.

Review of Brown Thomas

Beware of so called guarantees

Purchased an expensive hair dryer, less than a year ago, via Brown Thomas. The nozzle started to swivel of it's own accord. Brown Thomas told me to contact Ghd directly, (so much for their guarantee). Ghd said they would send a replacement nozzle. That was many months ago, and despite contacting them several times since, no replacement has arrived. Shocking customer service and BT don't honour guarantees.

Stop the BOT replies…

All the platitudes below don't make up for letting customers down.
Email from GLS
"Oh no...
We really wanted to deliver your parcel today!
Sorry we didn't meet you today.
But don't worry: even though we don't know what's in your parcel 21596549542 we know how important it is to you. That's why we'll continue to take care of it."

I don't want them to bloody take care of it. I want it delivered.

The deliveries have gone downhill…

The deliveries have gone rapidly downhill. I have a dog on a special diet. I always reorder when I get down to 10 tins, but Zooplus have changed courier this year and it takes up to 2 weeks now for delivery. Plus tracking is never available. Shame, they used to be very efficient.

Sad to write this review

UPDATE. Followed instructions below and they tried to sign me up for a subscription service...BEWARE.
Ordered a printer. Arrived without the ink that was to be included. Spoke to Waterford store, guy said he could not send out the ink, we would have to collect it. This would involve a two hour return journey.
Went to their website to buy the ink, website said, instore only...So had to buy full size ink cartridges from Fieldmaster, which cost €133. So the printer turned out pretty costly. Sorry to be writing this review as Harvey Normans are usually on the ball.
