Not honouring their terms and conditions of sale I was shopping on their UK website for Black Friday and there was an offer for a free gift (hair brush) after you purchase a certain amount. The offer was meant to last until end of 26/11 but for some reason when I tried to place the order in the afternoon, the offer expired and switched to something else, even though the free gift was showing as in-stock on their website. Tried calling them but was told the item is now out of stock and there's nothing they can do.

Still no items - buyer beware Purchased items a week ago online, and nothing is shipping. Status has not changed, I've contacted customer service both via chat and by phone and no resolution. You cannot even cancel the orders unless you do it within 30 minutes of placing the order, which in itself is crap, since they aren't even shipping it out. Buyer beware! First and last order with this company! I'll be disputing any charges at this point through my payment company.

Dreadful customer service After several long phone calls, I was finally offered a refund of 20% off my order, that was originally offered by Aveda as a first time purchaser. The discount was not applied as I had samples in my basket and so that apparently negated the offer. Problem was, I did not add these samples, Aveda did, and there was no way I could remove them! After 3 long phone calls, the woman FINALLY agreed, "as a goodwill gesture" to refund the 20% (and only after I told her to cancel the order immediately). My order of £154 should have meant a 20% refund of £30.80. What I have actually received is just £23.10. There is no point trying to call again, it was like banging my head on a brick wall. Needless to say, I will not recommend or buy from the company (or indeed Estee Lauder) again. The items will be returned as soon as they arrive. Dreadful customer service - and I wish I had read the reviews here before I started this waste of time debacle. UPDATE: Despite Aveda asking me to contact them by email, which I have, it's clearly just a ploy to make them LOOK like they care about customers. No reply whatsoever...

Its more like what didn't go wrong Its more like what didn't go wrong. Trying to redeem point to make a purchase but the codes they provide are too long and can't not be used. Unqualified rep Raven was useless and their entire website. What's the point of accumulating points if you can't use them. Aveda customer service is at its worst, they're a bunch of i d i o t s!!! Don't bother using their products or website

I called them many times they never… I called them many times they never picked up and I mailed them many times but they never responded.
