Review would have better but one of the four glasses was broken (it has now been replaced at no cost to me) and there was a mixup with my address.

My order 519973 (or 7841128 since there seem to be a mess up with my order number) was placed on 12 May 2023, with the promise that it would be shipped in 5 business days. Now, after 14 business days, while my order has still not arrived, the after sales of Cookinglife do not reply to any of my e-mails, WhatsApp messages or don't pick up the phone (after 30 minutes waiting, it automatically hangs up). Extremely lousy after-sales service (I would put no stars at all if that was an option). I have been a satisfied customer so far but this was the last time I ordered something from Cookinglife.

Very poor packaging, very poor delivery arrangement and terrible customer service. They didn't wrap the plates and glasses properly. When I received the parcels, many of them are broken. They put my delivery address without door number to DHL, after that, they think it is my problem with DHL. I tried to reach them to tell them my door number, but there is no way to contact them in time. I called them back, no one answered. I emailed them, the auto system saying they will reply in FIVE working days. But I actually never got any reply. I finally reached them via WhatsApp, but they just keep saying sorry and tell me it is the problem between me and DHL. Because of the redelivery, I received my parcels late, I couldn't open my parcels right away. I received my parcels on 4th December from my neighbour, I opened them on 27th December and found most of them are broken, I sent them photos via WhatsApp right away on 27th. They didn't reply to me on 28th. They replied to me on 29th December and told me that I am too late. I should report goods damaged to them within 24 hours. Later they said I should report within 72 hours. Then they said... 14 days... This company is doing business in their own kingdom? Where is EU regulation and customer protection? I know I open the parcels late, but I didn't expect a company sells plates and glasses would wrap those fragile products in such an inappropriate way! They send out my order by filling in a door number they picked and asked me to collect my parcels from the neighbour. The problem is they put in No.4 but I live in No. 312! They don't care and they asked me to rearrange delivery with DHL. They shouldn't do delivery so cavalierly. They shouldn't wrap products so cavalierly. If you are selling ceramic plates and glasses, do it properly and carefully! Otherwise you are just making more rubbish to this planet! I will never buy anything from them.

Charged €13 for return label that doesn't work. Stuck with pan I don't want.

I don't like to give bad reviews, but... When I get charged €13 for a return label that doesn't work and after 3 trips can't find a 'DHL parcelshop' in Ireland that will take the return, it's a tempting notion. After a month of calling CookingLife's phone number and getting a message that "due to maintenance we are currently not reachable by phone" and after multiple attempts at phone and message contact via the WhatsApp number on CookingLife's website netted no response, it's starts becoming an attractive option. After multiple ignored emails to info@cookinglife.eu asking for help, it becomes a certainty. This is either a company on its way out of business or one whose business model 'sell and forget'. Either way I won't be back...

FRAUD

After spending hundreds of dollars with this shop, my package arrived late, ripped open, with missing and damaged items. I immediately contacted them and sent numerous photos to of the damage and the courriers statement that the package was damaged in transit. All I get is a run around from customer support, automated spam responses, and a refusal to make the situation right. I'll be contesting it with my credit card company and hope they enjoy the chargeback for all these little games.

This company is a hassle to deal with, provides no support to customers, doesnt provide any modern order tracking, and knowingly provides inaccurate delivery times on their site. They also don't respond to customer issues, instead sending you in an endless circle of automated responses punctuated with the occasional unhelpful remark or lie from an employee who refuses to help you or honor what you paid their company for.

I have emailed 20+ times, no response on their Whatsapp number or their telephone number. I have reported you to my credit card company and hope to get a refund. You are criminal - I have been waiting for a response since JANUARY! One of the items I received was broken. Don't you dare ask me to call you, I have tried. Email me back ASAP or I will file legal papers to you.

Dear customer, Thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with our service. We have recently switched to a different system. This is because in our previous system, many messages, such as emails and Whatsapps, did not arrive. However, the transition of these systems causes an unwanted delay in all processes around order processing. As a result, we were also unable to respond within the required time. Our apologies for this! Unfortunately, with the information, given here, we cannot find an order in the system. If you have sent us a message, we will respond as soon as possible. Unfortunately, due to the backlog caused by the change of systems, this may take longer than you are used to from us. We are working hard to clear the backlog so that we can offer you a better service in the future! Apologies again for the inconvenience. Kind regards, Team Cookinglife

This is the worst service I have ever experienced shopping in the internet. Made an order on the 20th of May and I am still waiting for a delivery or refund. The customer service is a joke and the supposed “Trusted shops” guarantee is another, with their non ending "We are currently checking your case.” Total waist of time and money

Deliver very slow

Deliver from this firm has been very slow. Item ordered 7 days ago has only reached southern England and will probably take another two days to reach Scotland. The web address makes you think this is a UK business but they are Dutch and the warehouse is in Holland so anything comming to the UK hs to go through customs, Never again

Definitely don’t place order with this company

I would never deal with this company again! The item I ordered promised a 2-4 day delivery. I then received an email informing me they could not fulfil the order in this time and would email me when it became available. Customer services does not answer the phone or email requesting refund.

They aren't answering on questions about my order (I wrote to them on Whatsapp). My order still hasn't been sent, and it has been more than 2 weeks (delivery time was 4-6 days). I'm very disapointed, cause I was counting on that order.

Very sorry to hear it! Sometimes, the products are not directly available from us but have to be shipped from the manufacturer instead, and this can take longer. This is usually disclosed on the product page, however. Please do not hesitate to reach us by phone during working hours to resolve this matter!

If this is a scam site it makes sense, if this is a real business its the worst business in history.

No communication, no delivery, nothing, i am waiting on my order way past the due date, i have tried every method of communication and if i didn't know any better I'd be sure this is a total scam.

What you state on website does not match with reality eg delayed items, no customer service response etc. I still do not know anything about my order as you do not reply

No shipping and no answers on email or WhatsApp

No answers on email or WhatsApp. I ordered two weeks ago and one week ago. Not a single item has shipped or email answered, but my credit card has been charged for both.
