Satisfied customer

Initially there were some problems with the delivery which were, in my opinion, entirely the drivers fault - however the sales team were exemplary in resolving the issues to my satisfaction.
Thank you J L Brooks, I am happy with the products I purchased and absolutely love the assorted tarts all my favourites - Treacle, Cherry Bakewell, Lemon and Toffee tarts - difficult to know which to have first. Just one nice problem with the tarts - they are so large you can't eat a whole one - well I can't so me and my husband are sharing them - the toffee one is scrumptious x

It was the first time we ordered from…

It was the first time we ordered from JL Brook, and to a certain extent even a bit worried what to expect. I have been very pleased with all aspects of our purchase, from pricing, being informed about what stage our order was at, and the delivery. This will certainly not going to be our last purchase.

Loads of emails saying my order…

Loads of emails saying my order acknowledged,being packed and would be on its way.
The next day I got an email saying "Oops sorry we haven't got those products right now"
They did offer an immediate refund or I could wait for the stock to come back in.

Hi Judith,

I’m really sorry that the service you received fell very short of the standard we aim to deliver.

I’ve looked into the case and can see, as you mentioned, that the automated communications were sent out initially. Unfortunately, the office was then informed that the Pipers Jalapeño crisps were affected by a manufacturing issue, which meant stock levels unexpectedly dropped to zero while your order was still able to complete.

I truly apologise for the disappointment and confusion this caused. While we did offer an immediate refund or the option to wait for stock to return, I completely understand how frustrating this experience must have been.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, it’s genuinely appreciated and helps us improve our processes.

The only problem is that after all…

The only problem is that after all these years you have deleted me as a customer. Well, to be fair JLB has responded at once and resolved the problem which was probably down to computer error
