What people say

Customer service lied to me & refused a full refund.

I ordered a dark green rockabilly dress on 31st July 2025 expecting to get a dark green dress, when I received the dress, it was clearly a light green dress instead. When I pointed out the mismatch in colour to customer service and they said and I quote 'absolutely the same"- obviously colourblind then!! I only got a 60% refund when it should have been 100% especially that the colour was definitely not as advertised What's more, shortly after I couldn't help but notice that they hastily photoshopped the dress colour to match the one I received on their advert! Pixelated at that. Wow, they lied to my face so I would think I deserve a 100% refund for the misadvertisement & dishonesty! So, I'm going to be honest here, this dress and the jewellery are worth a lot less its advertised for. Also lying to a customer so blatantly is not really a good look for this "company"(!)

I purchased a smart biometric door lock from Lighting Box, which arrived damaged and had never been used. It still had its original protective film attached. Despite providing video evidence and reporting the issue within two weeks of purchase, Lighting Box refused to accept responsibility, instead blaming incorrect installation. This is particularly absurd considering that an identical lock had been fitted to the same door by the same professional technician, with over 25 years' experience, and worked successfully for five years. Rather than honouring my request for a full refund under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, Lighting Box has dismissed my complaint based on its supplier's speculative assessment. In my experience, Lighting Box is refusing to honour my statutory consumer rights and attempting to shift responsibility onto the customer. Extremely disappointing customer service. I would strongly advise potential buyers to think twice before purchasing from this company, particularly if something goes wrong.

After my first write review

After my first write review, the LightinTheBox, did not do anything. Here was a problem: I order a shoe men size 42 as my emails approving that, they sent me size 43. When I asked them to send me a correct size that I ordered. They told that I have to pay extra money, the shipping money. I am leaving the judgment for you!
