NEVER NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM uggsdirect.co.uk!!! RIP OFF...CON...SCAM

They will take your money in seconds and then you will never hear another thing. No phone calls returned. No emails returned. Dead end. I paid with credit card and had to set up a dispute proceedure to charge the cost back. Thank God, if i paid by debit card/google etc I would be £50 worse off.

Do yourself a favour - stay away from Uggs Direct!!!

they've been mentioned before here:

seems they do occasionally send boots out, but they're often faulty or wrong, and no one can contact them!

The actual boots that they sent were genuine but as I said unfortuantely 2 left footed ones as I could not make contact I eventually ended up driving to Macclesfield to the warehouse where I was able to exchange the wrong boot. Thank god I lived near enough to do this as I feel I still would have had the same boots even now. Extremely frustrating experience.:mad:

I was amazed to hear that people have had problems with the Uggs Direct webiste.

I bought a pair of chestnut ugg boots and a bag to match in 2006, ordered them on line on the Sat and they arrived on the Wednesday. The service was amazing and I still have my boots and handbag.

They were in brand new condition with nothing wrong with them and no faults and I was extremely pleased.

I have never posted anything on the net before but when I seen this I just had to reply.

3 years down the line and I am now thinking about getting a new pair of Uggs and see that the website has shut down for maintenance since May 2009 which is disappointing, I certainly wont be buying any from Schuh.

I bought a pair of Ugg boots in 2005 from Schuh and within 2 weeks there was a hole. I had only worn them at the weekend and as they are pricey, they were in their box the rest of the time.

Can anyone tell me what happened to Uggs Direct and if they will resurface as I really want a new pair???

Why would the ones from Schuh be terrible quality when they're from the same company? I can't imagine a place like Schuh buying all the rubbish stock and selling it on, so there'd be no difference between the ones from the website and the ones from Schuh, as they're exactly the same boots. Nice first post, incidentally

Many thanks for your quick reply and making me feel part of the forum gang :0)

I can only speak from experience and I have never had any other issues with Schuh but was pretty peeved when my Uggs at a cost of £150.00 had a hole after two weeks.

Take it I will need to just shop around for my new pair.

Sounds like you were just unlucky to get a faulty pair from Schuh. The same could have happened anywhere else, and it sounds like a fault on the part of the manufacturer, not the retailer.

Sorry, controversial note here, but I can't understand why anyone would pay £150.00 for a pair of fur lined wellies.

Paltrow...[or feel free to insert name of other celebrity spotted wearing Ugh! boots and thereby causing millions of wannabees to rush out and commit fashion suicide....]

Cue lots of claims about how useful and comfortable they are.......

Personally I think they look like the sort of 'big OAP houseshoes' that my nan used to wear 15 yrs ago.
