Broken vertical rod
I had an issue with a broken rod on a vertical blind. I contacted Shade and Story and was very well supported by Mark who arranged with the team to send a replacement vertical rod. The customer service with this company is excellent, professional, prompt and it was a pleasure. Highly recommend them and will definitely shop with them again. Thank you to Mark and the team. He is a star!

I bought a large blackout blind from you on the advice of John Lewis.

Dear Roger,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We're very sorry for the confusion regarding installation and understand how frustrating this situation must have been. Based on the information you were given, we can appreciate why your expectations were different.
Shade & Story supplies made-to-measure blinds, but we do not operate our own measuring or installation service. Where installation services are available, these are arranged separately through John Lewis & Partners. We appreciate that this may not have been made sufficiently clear during your purchasing journey.
One of our team will be reaching out to discuss your concerns further and see how we can assist. We do hope you'll be pleased with the quality of your blackout blind once it is installed.
Kind regards,

Instructions not very good.
Product arrived promptly but instructions failed to mention that no screws were included. The instructions themselves weren't that clear so I wouldn't recommend the product.

Dear Rebecca,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that your blind arrived promptly, but we’re sorry to learn that the instructions were not as clear as they should have been.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the fixings. As outlined on our website, screws and wall plugs are not supplied as standard, as the appropriate fixings can vary depending on the surface the blind is being installed into. That said, we understand how this may have been unexpected and will take your feedback on board when reviewing our guidance.
We’re sorry that this has impacted your overall experience, but we do appreciate your comments as they help us to improve.
Should you need any assistance, our team would be more than happy to help.

Problems with fitting and slight damage
Communication with the company during manufacture and delivery was good. Unfortunately I found the product really difficult to fit. It took about 4 hours and various hacks so it didn’t fall down. Once I finally unrolled the blind, I discovered a slight fault (a pinhole of light) showing through it. My now I was so exhausted with the process I couldn’t be bothered to complain to the company as I couldn’t bear having to go through the same fitting process over again. It’s up and working now but it isn’t perfect.

Dear Robin,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you found our communication throughout the manufacturing and delivery process to be good.
However, we’re very sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced during installation and the fault you noticed once the blind was fitted. We completely understand how frustrating and time-consuming this must have been, especially after putting in so much effort to get everything in place.
This certainly isn’t the experience we want for our customers, and we would like the opportunity to make this right for you. A member of our team will be reaching out to you to discuss this further and see how we can assist.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we appreciate your patience.
