Used to be great but now Customer service is awful. Bought a dishwasher and they sent incorrect paper work. Just called 3 times to tell them. Once just heard them laughing and joking about an annoyed customer. Other times I was just cut off. Will use curry’s next time.

I recently visited the Clarins section in John Lewis, High Wycombe, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. From the outset, I felt that the service was inconsistent and unfair. While other customers were receiving polite, attentive service and beautifully packaged products, my experience was entirely different. The item I purchased was handed to me without any packaging or even a bag, which felt dismissive and unprofessional. Additionally, no samples were offered, and I was made to wait a long time before being served. When I asked for advice on a foundation, the staff member didn’t seem interested in speaking to me or offering any guidance. Her lack of engagement and unwillingness to assist left me feeling unwelcome. What stood out most was the clear favouritism shown by this staff member. It seemed as though she was choosing her customers based on appearance or perceived status. If you don’t fit a certain “posh” image, you’re overlooked or given subpar service. This kind of behavior is unacceptable, especially from a brand like Clarins that prides itself on quality and customer care. I left feeling undervalued and disappointed, and I would urge the management to ensure all customers are treated equally and respectfully.

Went in to buy a TV, not a cheap one I might add, and the tech department were helpful enough, however the lady on the checkout (HW4330 High Wycombe 27th November) was absolutely atrocious. Angry at apparently being asked to do something she thought was beneath her, she was completely snappy and rude, and virtually barked her questions at us. In fact, she was so rude to us we went home and immediately cancelled the order and bought the TV elsewhere. Also, the toilets here are really poorly maintained and pretty shambolic. No soap, half not working, no paper, floor filthy, bad smells. Yuk. In no hurry to return. John Lewis is going down the pan by the look of it.

I visited the store hoping to purchase one of two Chromebooks I had seen on the website. Online availability showed they were in stock, so I wanted to confirm before making the purchase. However, when I showed screenshots of the items to a staff member, he couldn’t locate them on his system, as I didn’t have a product code, even though I showed him screenshots of item with all details, I quickly found the listing on my phone, but it didn’t display a product code. When I asked if it was available at another store, he mentioned Liverpool—hardly a practical option for me. I then suggested checking nearby stores like Peter Jones in London. He said it showed availability there but couldn’t confirm for sure. When I asked if he could call the store to confirm, he told me he couldn’t. Exasperated I left. On way out frustrated , I asked to speak with a manager. The manager was helpful and explained that staff can no longer call other branches to check stock in real-time; instead, they can only send a message request, and someone will get back to the customer later. Something the first gentleman didn’t offer. So it appears the system makes it impossible to confirm stock before traveling to another store—hardly helpful for avoiding wasted trips. I had already tried calling Peter Jones tmyself earlier, but no one answered. Overall, I’m very disappointed. In the past, I could always rely on JL for excellent customer service. Sadly, that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

Good size shop. Bizarre behaviour by woman who served me at till. Very unlike any experience I've had at John Lewis. She avoided eye contact and sort of barked questions at me in monosyllabic ways. I felt like she forgot she was serving a customer and had mistaken me for a dumb machine. It was horrible. Cold. Clinical. I felt like I needed a warm blanket and a hot tea and remind myself I am a human being. Is this the unfortunate effect of over mechanisation?

A strange security man followed myself, wife and 2 year old son around the shop this morning. It was a very odd and unusual feeling and I felt there was some racial discrimination behind this. Funnily enough I was there to purchase a £300 Reiss coat but the piercing eyes at the back of my head put me right off. Security man in the grey trousers a size too small; perhaps act more inconspicuous next time or just let the innocent brown people shop in peace. Off to Westfield we go instead.

Bought school shoes for the first time for my 4 year old son on 02/09/24 to wear at school for 12 hours in total this week and they are so scuffed and rubbish quality. Shocked that wearing these shoes for a total of 9 hours has done this. I was meticulous in ensuring my son takes them off after his mornings in school. Horrified to discover these in this state on Friday 06/09/24. Went into the High Wycombe store on 08/09/24 to request an exchange or refund and was denied either of these, stating this is “general wear and tear”. The comments from dep manager, Shazeena that I ought to “educate my 4 year old son on how to look after shoes”, totally insulting and ignorant. Does she have any clue what children at 4 year old are like? Elizabeth, other deputy manager was polite however, still refused to assist with either a refund or exchange. Did not expect this customer service from JL, particularly as we went to JL specifically for quality. Will not be going in there again. Absolutely flabbergasted by their lack of customer service. Terrible quality of shoes of the Start Rite range for children.

I had a lovely shop assistant called Shabela Begum and Laura Creed. I took their names so that I could make sure they were mentioned in this review. Being a teacher, I was given a voucher to spend in JL. Again, being a teacher, a teachers wage is not one you usually use to spend frivolous amounts on make up and skin care! However, I came in with the voucher and both sales assistants were welcoming, kind and helpful. Shabela colour matched me and helped me pick out a lovely selection of items, and then assisted me to get 15% off if I became a JL app user. It was a wonderful shopping experience and I am very grateful to them both.

Extremely disappointing customer service. I shop here regularly, and the experience is always dependant on who you get to help you at the till point. Today I got a lady ( assist number W4871) who was so unhelpful and indifferent while she was putting my items through the till point. She demanded to see my receipt for the item I bought earlier. Demanded is the right word - there was no please, thank you, sorry for asking. None of that. However when the manager was called, suddenly all the pleases and thank yous came out. Interacting with her ruined my whole experience on that day.

There was an error in the measuring of my curtains and the attention to detail, friendliness and efficiency with which she dealt with the problem was superb. I felt she went over and above to ensure that I was happy. Thank you Alison and also to all John Lewis and Waitrose staff as you are all always extremely helpful and friendly.

Eight months later and we went back to the store, this time for pans. The first clue should have been the fact that at 3.00pm on a Saturday we could park close to the door. Gone are the days when a knowledgeable partner could offer advice. Instead, all the assistant could do was to scan a bar code and show me the product on her smart phone, something that I could have done at home. When we tried to buy something that was on display but not available on the shop floor, out came the smart phone again to check stock. When the assistant came back from the stock room with the wrong item, we left the store. Later we bought the same pans from Amazon for 30% less and delivered the next day. This used to be a wonderful place to shop but sadly - no more! Hence the half empty car park on a Saturday afternoon. A nice store but don't try to buy curtain material. They are obviously set up for ready made curtains and have no material in stock. When we went in to order they persuaded us to buy more length than we needed and when it arrived it was in two pieces. No way to discuss this without driving to High Wycombe, no wonder they have problems.

This store does not have effective safety measures in place. My son was leaving the bathrooms when the door closed on his hand and partially amputated his finger. He is 6 and the whole incident was incredibly traumatic for him. Albeit the staff on scene being very helpful and caring, I have attempted numerous times to escalate a complaint to head office health and safety and I am always told someone from head office will call and it never happens. You have vulnerable customers such as children and the elderly, there is an easy solution to implement for this health and safety risk but JL have refused to have the conversation with me. Be careful with your children in these stores. Edit to add: I followed the advice in the JL reply to follow up for support. They advise they will reply in 24 hours and over a week later I still have no response.

Most patronising staff in the cafe! Constantly getting nagged whilst trying to study due to not buying ‘regularly enough’ despite constantly spending money on food that is far too overpriced!?! Almost £4 for the thinnest cake slice, which is stale most of the time, its utterly ridiculous. Perhaps if the food was actually good i would go back for more but the quality definitely needs to be improved. Overall, just very rude staff and poor quality food do NOT recommend.

Wife and I went for some breakfast. It was not very busy. I had full English breakfast and pot of tea, wife has avocado on toast with salmon and poached egg and a pot of tea. This came to over £21 which I thought was not good value. The total cost of items on my plate was about £4.50 , and they charge £9.50 the quality was ok but , if I had bought 2 bacon rolls which also came with 2 pots of tea included it would only have been £10 rather than £21. So be aware of the special deals as the normal menu is a complete rip off. I know what I am talking about as I have been in catering for 43 years.

Shame on him - shame on them. I how he loses his job.

Without earbuds for 3 weeks. Picked up and fault reoccurred within 24 hours. Now being told to go in a third time to arrange a refund or replacement. JL used to command loyalty. Service has deteriorated- other reviews have picked this up- I’d shop around and go with the best price, you don’t get peace of mind with JL any more. Never knowingly undersold is history.

I complained and was told that he didn't know about the other counter as he was just covering for someone.

This was on line customer services! I had a pair of pJ that felt like I slept in cardboard I was quite shocked as the company that made them seemed great loca. I continued them to explain they were quite shocked and said definitely a default! I washed them to see if that helped but no. They suggested I go back to JL and return as faulty! I said it was over 30 days as I had warn them I couldn’t return them. They pulled up faulty items on the JL website and said definitely return! I had originally bought 2 pairs one for my daughter but she didn’t want them. So they were returned in the time frame I was refunded no worries. Honestly you thought I was trying to get a free £1000 TV! They took ages to respond I explained the fault happy to return so they can look into it etc. Nop I have wrong dates, wrong information then a you have already returned it honestly!! I don’t have time for JL email tennis? It’s a £30 pair of PJs I thing it was! Just trying to help the company get them back to look into! Honestly wish I hadn’t bothered! Finally after I say I’m going to do a review I get £12 refund as a good will?? Good will for what exactly you all wasting my time, not looking at the details no listening to the problem or point or following you policy!! I’ve wasted far more of my time than £12!

We had a nursery appointment with a gentleman called Alexander. I seldom ever leave a review on the same day of a visit but wanted to do everything to ensure that my opinion was out there whilst it was completely fresh in my mind. Never ever ever have we been made to feel this welcome during an appointment. Whilst most of us would have been completely shattered by the end of the week, we received the most upbeat and well engaged service for a late Friday evening appointment. Alexander was nothing short of incredibly professional, highly knowledgeable, helpful and friendly to us. It must take a great deal of might to talk for 1.5 hours straight and no doubt there are a number of appointments per day of this duration. To be able to maintain a high level of service right up into late on a Friday evening is commendable, it is refreshing to see that kindness is not a dying breed and I do hope John Lewis recognises its true gems! Please don't ever change Alexander. Great work. :)

Not any other damages. So came back and decided that never shopping again with these liers/ scammers again its far better to buy stuff from amazon or temu instead of going to these scammers never buy goods from them triple the prices and same quality as some cheap third grade product.. And if you do need to pay triple the price ,please always make sure get clear instructions on insurance that they give on goods.

Came here looking for a fridge/freezer after an unsuccessful trip to Currys in Slough. Currys didn't have most fridge/freezers that I liked in stock, so a quick Google search showed John Lewis did have them in stock and offered free delivery (unlike Currys who were looking for a min of £60 for delivery!!) Knew exactly what I was looking for when I went in to John Lewis. Went straight to fridge/freezer section and was greeted by a very friendly young man who offered to help. I told him what I wanted (there was an example fridge in the store to show him!) and he advised that they didn't have this one in stock. Rather than attempting to sell me a much more expensive one that I didn't want, the colleague did a search to see if they had it available in other colours. I was very pleased to find out the fridge was available in stainless steel for the same price and with much lower energy usage!! This was great news. Really grateful to the staff member for his efficient service this afternoon. We were in and out the store within the hour!! Very happy customers and looking forward to receiving the new fridge/freezer on Monday!

I would give it no stars if I could. I don’t usually complain but I’m completely fed up with John Lewis and their attitude to after care. On the experience we’ve had, I would definitely think long and hard before you purchase through this company. We chose to buy from John Lewis because we trusted that they sold quality goods and have reliable after service. Both have been proven wrong. After many technicians trying to repair our TV, they have washed their hands and told us they will do nothing about it. The story is long and frustrating but it has been going on since the beginning of October. Speaking to other people, they are also experiencing similar low quality, dismissive service. I will never purchase from John Lewis again.

Great store with plenty of parking. Huge place with lots of helpful staff. Could do with a few more staff on the tills at busy times, but otherwise, a great place to browse around.

I bought a pair of headphones from John Lewis in high Wycombe, I must say the service I got from Rosie in the electrical department was awesome 👏👏👏. I must say Rosie is an asset to John Louis. She has an amazing attitude and was cool calm and extremely helpful, she had wonderful knowledge about the products And any questions I threw at her where she was not sure she would immediately check and would explain it to me In the way I would understand. I quiz her on other products like the Sonos Roam which again she was wonderful. She done her very best to give me a fulfilling contentment that I was important to her and John Lewis. Also would like to compliment her parents on raising a wonderful young lady. 👏👏👏👏👏

You are joking, right? Went to do a bit of shopping at the John Lewis branch at High Wycombe. After spending a small fortune on shopping, thought I’d get a cup of tea and a cake from their restaurant. Can’t say I was at all impressed on either the cake or the cost. Not sure where John Lewis feels it can exploit a customer with a slice of cake barely thicker than my finger for £4.25 Lesson learnt, and I won’t make the same mistake of visiting the restaurant again.

John Lewis is probably my favorite shop. I usually find something for myself & my home in most of the departments. Since moving from London to High Wycombe, John Lewis has become my least favorite place to shop. I am followed around the store all the time in both busy and quiet periods. I will find 2-3 members of staff loitering at the end of an aisle or area where I am browsing and they follow me to each area. Today was the final straw when I decided to end the day with a nice browse around the shop. This quickly turned into a sad and miserable browse as I noticed I was being followed yet again. I waited in line like other customers at various counters (Mulberry) to be served and was over-looked and then treated with bored, disdain as I made enquires. You've done me favor as I'll be saving money in 2024 by no-longer shopping at John Lewis. I'd rather go without than walkaway feeling miserable from the horrid store experience. I would like to know if the High Wycombe branch specifically train staff to treat fat, black women like common shoplifters, I do not believe my 'type" are the clientle this particular branch are intrested in. Point very much taken.

After sharing a grievance with Donna, in Customer Services, you do not expect her to walk briskly through the Department after you shouting "why don't you just leave" and making accusations of abuse. She needs more training to curb her bad manners and quick temper.

Lovely store, only downside is the cafe. Staff gave us an ice cold “hot” drink/inedible fish but other than the cafe I’ve had nothing but a pleasant experience. The front of store staff are always so lovely no matter what you need help with. I had an accident a few days ago with my laces being caught in the elevator, staff acted very fast, especially those that work for Jo malone. I was embarrassed but they were able to solve the issue swiftly and with Grace. A couple of staff came running with scissors and others tried to pull them out. I’m very grateful to the staff for helping me out & would recommend this place to people of all ages, young & elderly.

I recently needed to purchase a new TV. The info on the TV's now confuse me and I did not know what I needed, as a pensioner I was overwhelmed. A nice young man came to my rescue and explained all to me, which made alot of sense to me, he talked me through it and thanks to him I purchased a new TV. His name is Brandon and he deserves praise indeed. He then took me to the cash desk and talked me through that procedure. Thank you for being patient with me Brandon, you are an asset to the company.

THE PLACE Restaurant - High Wycombe. What a nightmare... queue to enter... queue in area for soup & sandwich. queue for Hot food. queue for Cake & Coffee. All these separate areas Do Not make it efficient, the assistants are terribly slow in dealing with everyone., I ordered the soup, but then refused it as it would have been cold by the time I eventually got to a table, I was still queuing for a sandwich, thats before I even thought about a hot drink. It was a busy time leading up to Black Friday & Christmas but have been here before on several occasions and the service is much the same., You have very pleasant staff working behind these counters but they are inexperienced and need direction., Nobody took any notice of peoples frustration at the poor service. This needs to be redesigned, all these different queues for items!! Definitely not "The Place" for Lunch or afternoon tea unless you are prepared to queue for 25 - 30 mins in each queue.

Afternoon tea here repeatedly grim over several years! Cakes over sugared and tasteless, often stale. The scones on this visit were like rock cakes (and this has happened before). We chose them because the cakes are so disappointing.

Like shopping at the store and usually have a bit to eat in the cafe . Last Saturday (21st Oct) we went to the cafe before shopping and ordered two toasties . After 20 mins there was no sign of the food and asked an assistant to chase it up. After another 10 wait still no food and no contact from anyone. I then went to the counter and asked for a full refund which I got plus an apology but no explanation as to why we didn’t get our order. We’ll still shop there but won’t be going to the cafe again

I knew what I wanted just couldn’t find the boxed items themselves. Annoying experience and so have preferred to order from Curry’s.

Very disappointed today with serving. I asked for Korean chicken rice. Rice was scraped from dish as it was end bit and really grainy. She loaded my plate with the coleslaw to make it look good ! My friend had 2 portions of same and her portion much larger. When I mentioned it to lady serving she said that is how it is 2 scoops. Expensive for what I got and I ha e also just spend over 300 in clothing dept too. :(

Ok so after a hectic week I went to John Lewis for much needed retail therapy but instead I left disappointed and very upset. I visited the ladies underwear department only to be ignored by staff member in the changing room, not so much as a welcoming smile, more an annoyed look. I waited as she tended to 2 other customers. I ended up asking to if I could go in. After that I went to the till, and the same lady (Kate) looked at me blankly and I said ‘can I pay?’ She replied ‘can you go to the tills at the end of the store’. As I walk away I realised that I don’t want to trek through the store with a bra in my hand, so I turn back and see Kate serving another customer. Sheepishly she realises I am there and says ‘I’ll be with you soon’. Then tells me she was serving the other customer the whole time, not the case from where I was. Customer service is your title and the main bit of your job before bra fitting. All you had to do was be friendly and polite, tell me you were busy but no, you treated me like a no one. I honestly felt judged because I didn’t look like the rest of your customers. From a Loyal customer for many years who is gutted that you ruined my day.

We recently purchased a car seat and base from JLP for our newborn baby (costing almost £500). We reported a fault with it shortly after purchase (as the straps do not adjust to fit a baby as they grow as shown in-store and on the manufacturer's videos) but the service from JLP has been extremely poor. We have made clear that we live in a remote village and rely on a car to get around and so need a replacement car seat asap and therefore cannot wait for it to be sent to the manufacturer for repair and subsequently returned (especially as JLP could not give any indication whatsoever of how long that would take and when we would get the car seat back). My daughter's first vaccinations are tomorrow and as things currently stand we will be unable to attend due to JLP supplying a faulty baby car seat and failing to provide a replacement or to at least agree to refund us so that we can buy a replacement. JLP were happy to make thousands of pounds from selling baby products to us but clearly have no interest in the safety of our newborn baby or remedying the situation when things go wrong with those products. JLP are insistent that they have to follow the manufacturer's terms and contact them about a repair but it would be well within JLP's powers to issue a refund or supply a replacement in the meantime. THANKS ANDREW - SADLY THE NURSERY AFTERCARE TEAM ARE BEING UTTERLY USELESS. THEY EVEN QUERIED WHETHER WE NEED TO ADJUST THE STRAPS TO FIT OUR NEWBORN (WHEN THE HEALTH VISITOR HAS CONFIRMED WE DO)! THIS SHOWS A TOTAL LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF THE PRODUCTS THEY ARE SELLING. CLEARLY TO WORK IN A CRASH, THE STRAPS NEED TO BE ADJUSTED TO FIT THE BABY!

My wife had very bad experience with the staff as they were not helpful at all even though she has some issues with mobility and asked for help they had not gave her any help at all. Let alone the poor communication skills from some of the staff, and not telling ua the policy that we can not return an item after we open it. I hope to investigate about that and make sure all your staff to be nice and friendly with your customers as john lewis is an amazing company

Plenty of staff, but terribly organised. I went today and there wasn't many people in the queue. However we were told to go to the other till where we would be served 'quicker'. Yet we were kept waiting and people coming in after us were served before us. The coffee was weak and like dish water, we couldn't even taste it. I gave a negative review some years ago, but hoped it had improved. Sadly this wasn't the case, so won't be eating here again.

Just back from a visit to JL on behalf of my mother. A washing machine that has been trouble since we had it. With 3 fixes required JL eventually swapped it. Thanks to Ben who was brilliant and to JL. It may be cheaper on the internet sometimes but that's because you are not buying the service and customer care. Thank you to Ben, I wish you had seen the happiness from my parents in their 90's hearing this was sorted.

Oh my considering this is John Lewis the standards in this restaurant are awful. We were unable to order hot food until 12.00 noon. We decided to go for the baguettes which was a big mistake. It was not enjoyable as they were so hard it resembled eating a brick. Looking across the tables it was not just us struggling as others had taken one bite and given up. I could hear a staff member apologise to a customer that there were no hot chocolates but there would be tomorrow. I just think this could have been phrased better by saying we haven't received a delivery. It is not as if the customer would be returning tomorrow unless local. Overall experience was not good I wouldn't recommend.

Great spot with lovely outdoor soace and oldy worldy interior but terrible pub. I think the idea of 'hospitality' has passed them by completely. The staff really couldn't be bothered. Flat drinks, 1970s style ploughman's and a truly awful salad with congealed dressing. Avoid until they've had some training or can be bothered to try to offer a welcome.

I get the impression that the owners are winding the Taps down. The bar staff are excellent, beer is good but often the selection can be poor. Food is no longer available, but you can take food in. The bar is looking tired, the loos are very retro, if 1970s public toilets are your thing. Its a real shame.
