I returned £100 worth of dresses to the correct brands address, and a month later I am still waiting for a refund. The proof of return receipt has been sent to the company and I have still not received my refund. You have to wait 3/4 days for a reply to your emails and majority of the time they do not respond. I followed all the instructions for returning my items and they are still not giving me my money back.
I do not know what else I am expected to do, terrible customer service would avoid at all costs.

Nice clothes but they are just a "broker" of other fashion labels. If you have to return something you have to pay and if your order came from different suppliers that means sending multiple packages back for one order.
Costly mistake for me as it cost £18 in postage to return 4 items from one order.

Bunch of thieves!
February 19, 2019

I have had the worst shopping experience with this comp-any ever! Please avoid them!

They sell poor quality of clothing and shoes! I have been waiting 3 months for a refund of £145.00 which I had to chase about 10 times - if I didn't email SilkFred on a regular basis, I wouldn't get my money back.

Additionally, I am still chasing a refund for defective earrings.

Hannah, one of the staff members is the worst one to deal with as she never get back to you or basically lies on a regular basis saying that the matter is being dealt with (when clearly nothing is being done!)

Not even once I was offered an apology!

Despite several emails and facebook chats, I have only received £24 pounds of refund (on 10 Jan) and I am still waiting on £107 remaining. I returned the goods between Christmas and New Year. I was told last Tuesday that my goods had been received and to allow 5-7 working days. Its now passed and I'm being asked the same questions and given the same excuses, including false information about emails I was apparently sent, which I don't believe I have ever received. There is no phone number to contact anyone, and no way to raise a complaint. If you look at twitter and facebook there are multiple incidents of the same, as well as goods not showing up. I would avoid if you want to trust you'll get your refund and that you goods will arrive. Even though I like the products, I will not be using again!

Poor refund policy
January 17, 2019

I wouldn't order anything from them again. I ordered 6 things on boxing day 3 items didn't look anything like the pictures so sent them back on 3rd jan. I had to pay postage for these returns and had to send back to different addresses only just received refund back today for these 2 weeks after posting. 1 item took silkfred 2 weeks to deliver and was faulty I am still awaiting the refund for this which was returned on 8th January. I've emailed them numerous times and not got very far. Their customer service is a joke. Just look on trust pilot and you will see reviews left from numerous customers about their poor customer service. AVOID until they sort out their refund policy!

AVOID THIS COMPANY!
January 6, 2019

Clothes were poor quality and the refund process is disgustingly poor! They don't respond to emails and I have found it's a common issue with them. I posted items back over two weeks ago and they still haven't refunded me and don't reply to emails. First and last time I ever use this company!

Confusing
August 21, 2017

When you purchase from this site and you need to return various items you have to send it back by recorded delivery that you have to pay for and items have to be send to individual stockist at different address. Returning can be costly and a night mare
