No delivery, and unresponsive customer service.
I ordered some insulation from these folks, and at the time of ordering, the delivery was estimated at 2-4 days. That was okay, because my project needed the materials in 5-6 days.
5 days later I called to ask why I hadn't seen the goods, or even a shipping notification. The phone didn't answer on multiple occasions so I used the web chat. They told me: "your boards are getting cut down today (Friday) for dispatch later so delivery will be Monday".
On Tuesday I contact them again to ask why I still haven't seen the goods, or even a shipping notification.
Update (19 Jun): I started to dig through companies house information and found the details for the parent corporation: kgdistribution.co.uk. I called their sales phone number which was immediately answered by a helpful guy who was concerned about my problem. He took ownership, and a couple of hours later I received an update, along with a TNT tracking number.
The goods arrived this morning.
It really shouldn't have been necessary to do all this for an order. The company could have defused the situation by providing timely updates and responding to customer inquiries. They chose not to, so I won't be using them again.

No delivery yet ....
My previous review below.
The online ordering system was smooth and simple. The post order support since non-delivery was excellent. There apologies generous and full refund was without challenge and prompt. I was disappointed with non-delivery but have only positive statements to make about the company.
No ordered products delivered despite my chasing the order. And despite receiving an email stating a second dispatch would be arranged. Sent two emails asking for refund on defaulted order, no refund yet progressed over 2 weeks from request.

Order #2649
Updated 29/06/24
After receiving a phone call from Buy Insulation customer services to discuss my issue I would like to say that the issue has now been resolved. I would also like to say what a refreshing change for a company to contact you the way Buy Insulation did with me and display empathy towards how I felt.
The insulation product I purchased was good and the company has now shown a great level of importance towards their customer base being totally satisfied all round with their overall experience.
Many thanks and kind regards
Order #2649
Product seems fine but delivery time is a major issue. Paid for express delivery 1/2 days and some 8 days after ordering received my order. Was told by Buy Insulation the order was despatched day 2 after ordering and would be delivered day 3. Obviously order didn't arrive due to issues with the delivery company they use, TNT, who I was informed by Buy Insulation via a phone discussion are causing them issues with customer orders. Contacting TNT is frustrating to say the least as you are dealing with an A I device.
After eventual delivery I contacted Buy Insulation via email with all the details regarding the delivery issues but have never received a reply. Maybe because I requested a refund for the express delivery!!!

Fantastic Service
Purchased 'ODE' 100 and 200mmm loft roll and a knife. Elliot in customer service calculated how many rolls of each I required for the area which was a great help. I received the goods next day but only paid for standard delivery 2-4days.
Rolls were excellent quality and the best price I could find anywhere online. The knife is sharp and very sturdy.
I will only be using BuyInsulation.co.uk in future for any insulation needed for my project.
