Is Wilko legit?
LegitToday's Wilko is a real retailer, mostly online, but not the chain you may remember: the owner of The Range bought the brand in 2023 after the original company collapsed. Anything owed by the old shops, like a gift card balance or a refund, stays with that collapsed company, not the business trading now.
What we checked
- Brand founded in Leicester, 1930
- Head office in Plymouth, Devon
- Ratings on other review websites: 3.5/5
Watch out for
- A gift card, voucher or refund from the old Wilko shops, owed by the closed company rather than today's business.
- A flat-pack item delivered damaged or with parts missing, where the refund waits on arranging a collection.
- An online order shown as dispatched that never reaches your door.
Did your Wilko order arrive damaged?
We help you write it, it gets its own public page, and you can have it sent to Wilko as a formal letter.

How do I file a complaint about Wilko?
Do you have a dispute or a bad customer experience with Wilko? Report it through our website to maximize the chance of getting it resolved.
We help you write an effective complaint in minutes. Our AI models are trained on thousands of effective complaint letters. Then we push it through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal. And you are not alone: our helpful community is there for advice.
How do I contact Wilko customer service?
Wilko customer service is reached through the help and contact section of wilko.com, which handles orders, deliveries, returns and refunds for the online business trading under the name today. Have the order number, the order date and the item name in front of you before you start.
Say which order you are writing about and when it was placed, because the Wilko name has changed hands and the current online business cannot resolve a purchase made in the store chain that closed. Bring the complaint to us and we push it out by email, on social media and by printed letter.
What is the Wilko returns policy?
Returns to wilko.com are handled under the policy published on the site at the time you ordered, so read it before you send anything back and keep proof of postage. Buyers online in the UK also have a statutory right to cancel a distance purchase for a short period after delivery, which sits on top of whatever the retailer's own policy allows.
For a faulty item the seller is responsible, not the manufacturer, so the complaint goes back to where you bought it. Photograph the fault and the packaging as soon as you notice it, and keep the order confirmation email: for an online order that email is your proof of purchase, so a missing till receipt is not the obstacle it would be at a counter.
How do I get a refund from Wilko?
A refund from Wilko is paid back to the payment method used for the order, once the returned goods have been received, and the request should quote the order number, the date and what was wrong with the item. If a refund is refused for want of the original receipt, proof of purchase is the wider test: a bank or card statement, an order confirmation or a delivery note can each show where and when the item was bought.
Refund refused, or promised and still missing? Take it through our complaint process: we help you write an effective complaint fast, setting out the purchase, the fault and the dates as one document and drawing on thousands of complaint letters that actually worked.
What do people complain about most at Wilko?
