SCAM - Sent a (horrible) faulty skirt and now in a dispute about a refund

Was sent a horrible top and skirt set that looked gorgeous on the photos.

Firstly, not the same fabric
Secondly, the lace was off to one side, so it looked ridiculous
Thirdly, terribly made - the 'lining' was just long enough to be visible at the top of the slit

I could go on.

The major problem, though, was a big hole where the waistline hadn't been sewn together.

I contacted Mae London for a refund, and after conversing with the lovely 'Julia', quoting the Consumer Act 2015 to her and threatening to go to the Ombudsman, Mae London is adamant that they're sending me a replacement, which I a) absolutely do not want, and b) which violates my rights as a consumer.

I'll keep you posted.

Good customer service

I ordered a dress which when it arrived, I realised I had ordered the wrong colour. I sent for the correct colour and emailed the company to ask about a return. It took a while initially to receive a reply, but after that every reply was quick and helpful. I was very happy with the customer service and would recommend this company.

Avoid this company at all costs

Avoid this company at all costs, they give the impression they are London based but in reality the items come from Asia, the delivery time is weeks, the quality is awful and if you want a refund you have to pay the shipping costs which can be more than the item, avoid avoid avoid

The quality of the dress was very poor…

The quality of the dress was very poor and also the neck line looked like bardot which it isn't a bardot neck line.
Also unable to return because Mae London say it costs £20 to £30 to return plus other additional costs. Also the items took nearly 2 weeks to arrive, when I checked out online to pay for the items it say they would arrive the following day

Absolutely awful

Absolutely awful. Do not buy anything. Cheap and nasty fabrics, sizes so small they would only fit a child. Stay well away. You then have to pay for postage plus another amount so not worth sending it back. Awful, just awful

Scam company

Scam company. Dress ordered was not as advertised. Cost £35. I have emailed back and forth for a return address, kept offering me 15% discount to keep the dress or select something else. Finally have an address, which is incomplete so I still can’t return. Bought using a gift card so I can’t claim my money back via card. Absolutely useless company AVOID

Not London based, expensive to return

I was unhappy with the product quality and was aware that I would have to pay return shipping but the company gave a breakdown of the estimated costs as follows...
Just a quick reminder: return shipping costs (usually £20–£30), a handling fee of £2.99 per item, and any customs charges (£6.99–£10.99 per item)
FYI for anyone wanting to buy I wouldn't unless you are definitely not going to want to return

SCAM company

SCAM company, do not order from MAE London, based in china. 🇨🇳 The service is horrible and you will receive a product that’s not as you saw advertised. I ordered a size 16 and received a top in a size 6 that’s different material not something that anyone will wear. No refunds. No response to emails.

AVOID - horrible company, items priced at £30-£40 but charging £20-30 to return an item + £3 handling + £10 customs charge. Items are shipped from China and take weeks to arrive.

DO NOT BUY...SCAM SITE!

I bought an item advertised very openly on their marketing as being made from a cotton fabric, looking high end, concealed zip detailing etc. What arrived was a cheap replica made from dodgy fabric and elasticated bands and exposed zips as opposed to the high end sewn garment marketed. They even allude in emails to the fact that "its common in the industry" for this to happen.🤯

Now won't refund the full amount, expect you to ship things back to China (despite selling from the UK) for £50 but offered a 15% refund if I kept the garment. No acknowledgement they had mis-sold or falsely advertised which is breaking the law. Escalating through my credit card provider...

Poor comms, no phone or address yo deal with them directly, only email. Do your research unlike I did folks!

0 Stars-SCAM

***THIS IS A SCAM- DO NOT BUY FROM THEM- RETURN POLICY DOES EXIST AND THEY BULLY YOU TO AVOID REFUNDING PROCESS***

I emailed seven days ago to request a refund and 'Julia' continues to respond offering anything but to grant me a refund. After 6 e-mails, she has agreed to facilitate the refund and decided to disclose then the fees associated to it, and it turns out is not only the £2.99 they mention in their returns policy.

I have never come across a company where you refund something and lose money. Julia has just informed me that I would have to pay for the return shipping costs to their warehouse, IN CHINA, which amounts for £20 to £30, on top of the £2.99 'admin fee' (Julia e-mailing you to offer to keep the item), plus 'potential' courier fees, £6.99 to £10.99 per item, which means that after having paid £44.99 for the item, I would potentially end up with extra £42 on return fees, but Mae 'China' and not London, only mentions £2.99 'admin fee'. I shall reiterate that this is 'Julia' trying to convince you to keep the item and she will give you 20% of your money back.

From what I see here, it looks like negative reviews are not responded to and there are many.

Shocking behaviour. Please do not entertain it, do not fall for these items. AVOID!

Very poor quality

Don't be fooled by the online photos ladies, I have just received 2 dresses that are awful quality and dont look anything like the advert.

I have sent a few emails requesting a return and not had a reply. So disgusted with the service and the dresses.

The company is in china not London

The company is in china not London . My items arrived and are absolutely shocking . Skirt falls of me it’s so big and too top to tight to wear . Asked for refund and then hit with the fact that it will cost me more to return it then I will get back . Offered me a 15% refund and so I’m now £42.50 out of pocket . Ads are misleading - terrible products and overall just a scam with glossy adverts

Do not buy from this company! It is a scam

This company is based in China not London as implied by their name and website info. Products take more than a month to arrive and look nothing like the adverts on Facebook. Items that arrived are of a very different colour and completely different fabric (cheap and nasty) and are basically completely different to what is advertised. I would go so far as to call this a scam

Very disappointed

Ordered from what I believed was a company in London. My own fault didn't read returns policy -
just didn't think businesses could stoop so low.
Certainly will not be ordering again.
