IDS have a great stock of just about everything you need for your dance school. Delivery is prompt and if something is out of stock you are kept updated every step of the way. Back order is such a useful tool, making sure your needs are met every step of the way.
Very easy to deal with especially when you need to speak to an agent. The calls are answered promptly, with very helpful agents on the line to resolve any query you have. The online ordering service is great too, easy to navigate with easy payment options.

Terrible service

Terrible service. After returning an item and cancelling an order due to the item not being in stock I requested a refund. The company did not respond to my emails and have only offered me a partial refund through PayPal. My previous experience of this business has always been fantastic however after this recent experience I will never order from them again.

Dear Caroline, Please contact us with details of your order as I cannot find any recent transactions on your account. We do not like disappointing our customers and would like the chance to put this right, particularly since you say you have always had fantastic service in the past.

We are always happy with our experience when placing orders, you deliver very swiftly and your customer service is excellent.

The only negative feedback I have is your website is so SLOW! it's very, very frustrating when browsing the different items and sizes available. I would give you a 2/10 for site speed. Is there anything planned to address this?

Thank you for you review. It is good to hear that you are happy with our service and I will pass your comments on to the team. As far as the website is concerned we had an update on our website which caused a few issues but the IT team are aware of it and have been working hard to correct it. We value the feedback and are working tirelessly to improve the situation. We’re sorry we’ve fallen short of your expectations on this occasion.

Great costumes, uniform and customer service

Great costumes and uniform, speedy delivery, brilliant customer service!
IDS have been absolutely brilliant through this very rough year. They returned my cancelled show costumes and refunded. Customer service was above and beyond. Thank you.

Excellent service as usual. Only one item out of stock but (not surprisingly, given Covid-19) expected in later in the year. Had to use another supplier for this item pro temp.

Thank you for the lovely review. After a prolonged absence of classes, we are seeing higher than normal levels of Dancewear purchasing . Whilst we hold over double the inventory of any other competitor, that doesn’t always mean we ourselves aren’t impacted occasionally by our own suppliers during this time. Whilst we always hope to despatch everything from stock, sometimes there can be delays. Hopefully your next order will be 100% fulfilled.

GOOD QUALITY AND WORTH WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

Love the costumes and customer service was good! Had to make a refund for 2 costumes. It took almost a month for the refund but I'm still happy to keep purchasing costumes with IDS. Quality is superb and worth what you're paying for. Thank you IDS.

Disgusting customer service when the order was wrong!!

Disgusting customer service!!! After a ‘difficult’ order process during which no-one seemed to have any product knowledge and I was passed from pillar to post. Sent the wrong items and then Tyler who is apparently a Team Leader tried to make out they were doing me a favour when ‘resolving’ matters! Perhaps customer service need to brush up in their knowledge of the Sale of Goods and Services Act! This order caused me an inordinate amount of inconvenience and IDS were nothing but patronising.

UPDATE TO REPLY:
Thank you for your reply however it took two more long telephone calls to put this right. Further the order being wrong meant a two hour drive in my time, at my expense and my inconvenience. In addition stating that I was told not to ‘bother returning the items as it would not be worth the postage’ does not fill me with confidence as to the quality of product. The items are of no value to me if they do not fit. I was offered in compensation a £25.00 credit which is not any compensation at all and under the Sale of Goods and Services Act is not in fact compensation. I am entitled to replacement goods which you have supplied but also compensation for any loss and damages which you have not supplied.

Hi Anastasia, thank you for your review. We have been investigating this for you since last week and are in contact with you almost daily. Unfortunately as the parcel was delivered to an old address we will need to wait for this to be returned to us before we can issue a full refund.
