Difficult delivery
Delivery of the bulk order proved challenging, but they managed on the third attempt. Always helpful. A text saying delivery possibly at 07.00 was not great and first attempt at 07.50 was challenging.

Hi Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
I am saddened to see that you have had a poor experience with us due to the lack of communication around your order being ready to collect.
I apologise greatly for this and for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
I will look into this further, to see what caused this to happen.
However, I am pleased to see that you have had a really positive experience with our branch team.
Kind Regards,
Charlotte
Expensive and always a hassle.
Expensive, have to haggle and even then it’s often cheaper elsewhere. I use them if in a convenient location. Feel the one man band customer is not valued at all and it’s too much effort to serve me sometimes. Some of the team are excellent but sadly not all.
