If I could give zero stars then that is…

If I could give zero stars then that is what this company would get. I ordered trainers on the 28th March 2026. I received an email telling me that my order is delayed on the 2nd April. No contact from Whistles since.

Checking the track my parcel option on their website offers no clues as to the status of my order. So I email them, via the website yesterday morning. I received a generic email, which told me precisely nothing about my order and when I can expect to receive it.

This is the first, and last, time I will order from this company. I will start a chargeback with my bank once enough time had elapsed.

If you are thinking about buying anything online from Whistles I would strongly recommend that you don’t.

Fabulous, friendly shop

I’ve been in to Ilkley Whistles two times recently and both times I’ve had excellent and friendly service. The first time I wanted to buy a wine coloured quilted jacket. The small was too big and there was no extra small in the shop. The lovely shop assistant rang Edinburgh (who were also fabulous) and the coat was delivered the next day to my home!
I then ordered a sweat shirt and shirt online. Having ordered the small ‘Toujour’ sweatshirt I thought that medium would give a more relaxed fit. A different but also great shop assistant helped me to send back the small and found a medium in the window. Perfect! Very happy and can’t recommend the shop and staff enough.

Disappointing experience!!

I’ve visited the Whistles store in White City many times in the past and always had positive interactions with the staff, who have been consistently friendly and helpful. That’s why what I experienced last Friday was so shocking and really disappointing.

While trying on clothes in the changing room, I could clearly hear someone who appeared to be in a management role speaking loudly and extremely disrespectfully about other staff members at the back of the store. This went on the entire time I was there, making it impossible to ignore. It was incredibly unprofessional and created a very uncomfortable atmosphere.

What should have been a routine visit turned into a genuinely unpleasant experience. Hearing that kind of behaviour completely changed my perception of the store, and I left feeling uneasy and unwelcome.
What made things worse is the young lady who helped me heard it too and looked upset, i felt very sorry for the staff member, but through it all she remained professional.

Hello there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
I am truly sorry to hear about what happened during your recent visit to our White City store. This is absolutely not the standard of professionalism or atmosphere we aim to provide, and I understand how uncomfortable and disappointing this must have been.
What you described is completely unacceptable. No customer should ever be exposed to disrespectful behaviour between staff, and no team member should be placed in a situation where they feel upset or undermined in front of customers. I appreciate you recognising the professionalism of the young colleague who assisted you despite the circumstances, we will ensure that your kind words are passed on to her.
Please know that we take this matter very seriously.
I value your support and would really appreciate the opportunity to restore your confidence in us.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Poor quality items, worse customer service

About the items - I purchased a pair of trousers at the end of May 2025. Almost immediately they became unhemmed. Now they are basically disintegrating- there are pulls all over the leg, the pocket is shredded, and they’re essentially not suitable for wearing out the house.

About the customer service - I contacted whistles over a month ago about the repeated quality issues I’d had with these trousers. In this time I’ve received only two responses from them and had to send 5 chaser emails and a live chat message to get a response. I’ve been offered a £25 goodwill gesture despite the fact the trousers are unwearable, and they’ve just been ignoring me since, so I can only assume they have no intention of giving me any sort of refund.
When I contacted whistles about the unhemming, they did offer to cover £25 towards the repair but wouldn’t pay this to me until I had a receipt, an unnecessary faff. I never took them up on this, so to be offered the same £25 again for yet more quality issues is insulting.
