Thank you for the review but am puzzled as to why you have only awarded one star if you experienced good service and nothing was wrong! Please can you reassess your rating.

I paid extra for next day delivery and received it 2 days later, if I knew it wasn’t going to come next day I wouldn’t have paid the extra cost. When I received them they were ripped but unfortunately you cannot send them back as “once the seal is broken, they can not be returned”

Dear Holly
I am sorry you are not happy with us. Your order was placed after our offices were closed so the item was despatched the next day and was sent on a 24 hour delivery as you requested and was delivered the following day. If the goods were faulty when you opened them then please send a photograph of the tights showing the tear to hello@dancedirect.com who will sort this out for you. We always do our best to make sure our customers get a good service.

Dear Tracy
Returns are processed within 14 working days of receipt of your parcel, and as we have just had an extended Easter break that would account for the delay. The returns team are working hard to catch up and you should receive your replacement soon.

Great workout through dance

The dance class run by Hayley Anderson is well organised, starts on time and is well attended. The class is great fun and a good workout commensurate for the varied age range of the attendees.

I am sorry you are not happy with our service. I can see the replacement we sent to you in February but cannot see any further correspondence about the 2nd leotard. Please can you contact hello@dancedirect.com so they can resolve this issue.
