Delivery, returns
and support

What customers report about getting an order, sending it back and reaching a person. Every point links to its source.

How is Not On The High Street delivery?

Delivery experiences depend on the individual seller. Some customers report items arriving on time or ahead of schedule, and one Google Play reviewer likes the express option. Recent Trustpilot reviews from August to October 2026 repeatedly describe late parcels, orders cancelled after payment, and stock problems found only after ordering. Older Reviews.io entries describe the same pattern.

How do Not On The High Street returns work?

Returns data is thin. One Trustpilot reviewer says return postage cost £6.95 on a £29.40 item. Another says a refund of around £200 stalled for weeks. Others report quick refunds for orders that never arrived. One App Store reviewer says orders cannot be cancelled even before the seller accepts them.

How is Not On The High Street customer support?

Support is the most divided theme. Many Trustpilot reviewers praise fast, kind help and a quick resolution. Others report waiting up to two weeks for a reply, being unable to reach anyone by phone, and email being the only route. Sitejabber and Reviews.io reviewers describe being passed between seller and platform, though Sitejabber has only 4 reviews.

How is Not On The High Street quality?

Most reviewers who comment on quality are positive, especially for jewellery, cards and personalised gifts. Complaints concern individual sellers, such as faint engraving, weak upholstery tufts, a night dress with oversized sleeves and a misspelt personalised tray. Customers report that listing photos and descriptions sometimes do not match what arrives. Some call prices expensive, while others say prices are good.
