Light In The Box
reviews and complaints

I placed an order for a jumpsuit and got a confirmation email stating my order was received and being processed. Two days later received a email stating my order was cancelled due to payment timeout. The money has not been refunded or returned into my account.

When I login to my account my order number and order is not available but an option to add the cancelled items again.

I am also not able to contact customer service.

I have placed an order with Light in the box.

The contact page does not allow me to contact them as it says I have no orders.

I placed the order on 19/05/2023 and simply want to check the order status.

How do I contact them?

I don't think I will buy from them again as it is too difficult to contact them.

You are replying to this message saying I am missing important information. You then supply a link stating this will tell me what else to add, but the link just takes me back to this page. I'm going round in circles.

Hi! I have ordered on “ light in the box” on april 29, 2023 2 dresses for first communion for my daughter. On the website is information about delivery 3-5 business days, I got the items on may 20,2023. I don’t need dresses anymore and would love to return, because first communion is over. I would like to return items, but problem is that website didn’t send to me confirmation, tracking number and order number. Please help me with this. Thank you

I ordered a holding hands plague and what I ordered and what I got is 2 different things, I got a cheap and nasty plastic thing, not at all like the pictures they advertised
Disgusting I have added pics, the first 2 are what I got the other ones are what they advertised
I wish I had read all the reviews as I would not have wasted my money
I WILL NOT order anything from them again

Non existent customer service! Tried to ask why one item on my order was not being processed, as it was delaying my order being shipped.
Told it was because of being 'very busy'
I asked for delayed item to be removed from my order so rest of items could be shipped. Next day went to my account and see my complete order of 14 items were cancelled! To add insult to injury, I have to wait 29 days for refund! 🤨

On 1st April 2023 Light in the Box advertising sale garments in AU$. An Online order was placed for two Sale Coats at the discounted AU$ price. Payment of AU$121.67 was the cost for 2 Coats plus Delivery as follows. ProductsStatusOrder Operation

Order Date: 2023-04-01

Order Number: [protected]

Order Total: AU $121.67

To date only one item was delivered. The second item has automatically disappeared and Light in the Box is ignoring that the second item was ordered and paid for.

This company is extremely dishonest. The sender is a P.O. Box in Chullora, NSW, Australia.

I have encountered dishonesty issues with a company called JustFashions New from the Chullora address.

I want to warn all unsuspecting customers to be extremely wary of these two companies.

Good morning Light in the box, Yesterday I was told that my order was shipped with counterfeit postage and it could not be delivered. Also, I was told the package was being held at the post office and it would be sent back to the sender. Yesterday, I did receive my order from the Post Office. The jacket that I ordered was damage with tear in the front of the jacket. Also, the jacket had some black grease or glue in the shipping package it was shipped in. I order the jacket for my vacation May 12th thru the 20th, 2023. Please send me another jacket as soon as possible and a return label to me so I could return the damage jacket. I will be leaving on Friday morning for my vacation, and I would greatly appreciate if you would expedite my new order. If you're not able to provide me with my order before I leave on the 12th of May. I would be able to provide you with address for my vacation and maybe you would be able to ship it there Federal Express or UPS overnight services.

Thank you very much,
Mr. Tony McDougal

I ordered a dress advertised as made of linen. The picture showed a dress with the creases you see on linen garments. The item received was a very cheap woven polyester material, poorly made, and not as pictured.

When I tried to make the return on the website, it kept telling me to download the app on my phone. Given the sleazy nature of the whole process, I would not do that.

Finally I found a way to get around that and I filed for a return on the website. I had to provide a photo and description. (As if they don't know the material and the dress description don't match.) The request was acknowledged as received on screen and they promised to send email within 24 hours. Never received an email. When I tried to re-start the return process, got denied with various excuses - you already filed for a return or you waited too long to request a return.

Do not waste your money. This is not really a legitimate site, despite claims it is.

On April the 18, 2023, I placed an order from light in the box, order number [protected]. The item was an abs stimulator, in blue and black. It was for sale for €28.99. After taxes it was €37.99. This amount was taken from my PayPal account and the date of may 5th was given for delivery.. The tracking number I was given was YT2311221266030082. I have not received my purchase although the tracking app says it was received.. I have had someone at my home waiting to receive this purchase however nothing has still arrived... I am bitterly disappointed with this service and request my money back or my item ASAP..

I am writing this on behalf of the person that ordered and have given me permission to do so. I ordered a wedding guest suit of this website. I want to return an item when I’ve emailed the company they have said that I cannot return the item as it was specifically made for the order this isn’t stated in your policy I have throughly read though it. When we have tried to return it we have had difficulty as it isn’t clear on how to return the item either.

Light-in-the-Box left me in the DARK. I foolishly ordered from this company before checking reviews or with the BBB. Out of the 12 clothing items I received, only 2 are worth keeping. And 2 other items were in the package that were a size small. I would NEVER order a SMALL ANYTHING ! I'm a Midwestern meat & potatoes girl. Now I'm trying to return the items, and I'm jumping through hoops. They will NOT tell you where to send the returns unless they "approve" your returns and send you some sort of "ticket". And to "earn" a ticket, they expect you to measure everything and send THEM the measurements. Shouldn't THEY KNOW the measurements of the garments THEY supposedly make. How would you measure bike shorts with the crotch stuffed with 3 inches of foam. What a joke ! And I'm not about to send MY personal measurements out on the www ! They jerk you around until the 30-day time limit has passed. Consider it this way:

ALL SALES ARE FINAL

Ordered a pair of shoes. Arrived and beautiful but too small. There is nowhere on the site that will give me a returns slip. When I go on to customer services on their site it tells me they cannot refund dresses that have been custom made. I have tried to tell them it is not a dress it is a pair of shoes that were not customer made but are too small. I am even happy to have them replaced with a bigger size. But it then blocks you off

Cannot find an email address or phone number.

I'm trying to return a dress I bought that is nothing like the picture on your website. I keep getting messages telling me I've got customer service messages but it won't let me open the message so I can't see what they say.

I've also bought a Bluetooth speaker for the TV, but can't make it work as the instructions are in Chinese and the woman speaking when I switch it on is talking Chinese, I am English and don't read or speak Chinese! So I can't get it to work, how am I supposed to be able to set it up with no instructions that I can understand in my own language?!

This is very bad customer service and I'm not pleased at all. Feed up of wasting my money on this site! Won't be using it again!

I have received my parcel today of 5 items, all of which I am extremely disappointed with. Nothing fits properly or well and the fabric which was advertised as linen, definitely is not, being of very poor, thin quality.

There is no invoice or returns ticket in the parcel and I have found it impossible to raise one on line, having gone round and round in circles for the last hour, even when installing the app.

It is completely unacceptable to sell inferior goods and the to not offer reasonable means for a refund.

I received my dress on 2 May 2023. On 3 May 2023, I tried on the dress and found that the bust area was so small I couldn't even get it to go across my breasts. I notified the company immediately only to receive a request that I take my measurements and pictures to prove it didn't fit! I was outraged that they believe I owe that proof after just requesting to return 1 day after receipt. This is not a custom made dress!

I ordered a blue cotton sleeveless dress from Lightinthebox, I am a standard 18, when it arrived it was just too small all over so I needed to return it.

I was told to get a refund, I would have to take photos showing a tape measure on the dress to prove I had ordered the wrong size. They would decide if I would get a refund if not I could keep the dress that didn’t fit and get a 50% credit note or a 30% cash back which would be put on my account, I don’t have one, and I could transfer it out.

All this took about 10 emails and about a week, surely like every other company I have dealt with my word should be taken that the dress didn’t fit and a full refund made.
This is totally unacceptable.

I ordered something from this site it was told that it was delivered I have not received anything I keep reaching out the customer service no one is reaching back out to me I asked for a tracking number to track my package my event is on Thursday I paid for expedited shipping I have not received a notice to say where's my package nor have anyone contacted me concerning my package I'm very upset and will not use this company ever again

On April 5, 2023 I ordered 5 dresses. I never received a confirmation email about my order. I noticed that PayPal paid $123.00 to Light In a Box for my order. I tried contacting this company many many times. When I would try to sign in the password I saved would not be accepted. So I selected the forgot password option. A message came up that a email would be sent to me to reset my password. No email came so I tried again and again and again. Never did I receive a reset email. Without signing in I could not communicate with them. So I contacted PayPal about my problem and they contacted the company. I have received the dresses. No invoice in the packages and no email from this company. Now I need to return them because the quality is very poor and the fit is off. But I once again cannot connect to their website because I have no password. I MUST have their okay to send them back. What a terrible mistake doing business with this company. If you can please help me. Thank you.
