Dominos Pizza - withholding customer money

At the outset, I write this realising we are talking about takeaway pizza during a global pandemic....


But I wanted to warn other East Dulwich customers about the experience I have had with Dominos Pizza Dog Kennel Hill so that it might help inform you which pizza place to pick should you be in the market for a takeaway any time soon!


Dominos failed to deliver my order a month ago, they couldn?t explain why it never got to me, but agreed to send me a refund. I was told this would take 3-5 days and thought nothing more of it. The refund never got to me and since then it has gone from the ridiculous to the absurd. Every time I have chased it up since, I have been consistently lied to and fobbed off by the Store Manager. When I call, they laugh down the phone, give fake email addresses for the Area Manager/Directors etc. Told me they can?t give me customer services or area managers contact details for data protection reasons.


I have never experienced anything like it from a company. It was a ?30 order but the bewildering lack of integrity and customer service on display will hopefully make others think twice about where they choose to spend their money.

Dominic Paul was appointed CEO earlier this year. This is his LinkedIn page: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/dominic-paul


There should be a way to contact him directly through LinkedIn! Otherwise there are links to other managers via same page (down side).

Thank you! That?s really useful, I?ll try him on LinkedIn.


I did actually copy him in to my emails with the franchise but no reply...


I think I will try him on LinkedIn directly though as you suggest as I was just so shocked to be laughed at. It?s not about money so much as the ethics. I?m being laughed at about them not sending me a refund for a service they never delivered.


I obviously have better things to do with my time than chase up ?30 but hard to let a business get away with such contempt for their customers.

Also The Guardian Consumer Champions might be able to shame them into action if there's a potential complaint printed in the paper:


'We welcome letters but cannot answer individually. Email us at [email protected]. Please include a daytime phone number. Submission and publication of all letters is subject to our terms and conditions.'

Thank you so much for your reply and suggestion. I have been in contact with their central customer care but they seem to pass enquiries immediately over to the franchise to deal with rather than have a central department which isn?t very helpful if you then want to complain about the franchise itself. The customer service person for the franchise did initially reply to say they were sorry and would refund me immediately but then didn?t do it; and is now ignoring me...


All very odd.


I?ve never had an experience like it. Despite it costing ?30 to issue a small claim, I?m minded to do so just out of principle.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By ak0910 · Posted

      @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
