Beware!!!!!

I ordered a Juwel Rio240 Aquarium from these people on Sunday 30th September. I'm still waiting for delivery after being assured when placing my order that my order would be delivered in 3 days!! Allowing for the distance and time where I live in the Highlands, I thought 3 days was ambitious. Anyway tried to contact these people by phone, straight to answer machine, their at a trade conference not back while 13 October. Sent e.mail, finally got an answer from them, saying my order was now at my local delivery depot and they should contact me reference delivery.
Not filled with confidence and have doubts whether this company is legit. Be careful before you order!!!!!!

Customer service could do with some attention

I have bought things from this site before and been very happy. This time I bought a tank, but it did not arrive on the promised delivery date, Friday. Having waited in all day I emailed them to let them know and to ask if they had any news on my delivery, they emailed back with the courier's phone number and the tracking number and asked me to call the courier direct. I really think that this was something they should have done as part of their customer service to me, my transaction was with them after all. Also, an apology would have been nice. Anyway, I called the courier and they said that they had it marked for delivery on Monday, and it had never been intended to deliver it on Friday. Disappointing.

Having said that, when it did arrive it was extremely well packaged and the delivery man was happy to lift it over my threshold whereby I could slide it into the house. It was also a good price, though I have since seen it cheaper elsewhere.

Disappointing

The website claims that most of their stuff is in stock, yet a week after ordering I have only received 3/5 items, over 2 separate deliveries.
They also claim to process orders received by 3pm the same day. I ordered at 9am, spoke to a very helpful lady who told me she would be able to despatch one (urgent) item if I paid an extra £4.55 for carrier delivery, which I was happy to do. Item was not despatched, and when I e:mailed to query received a very abrupt reply from a man saying 'we made no such promise'.
Very disappointed indeed.

Awesome

Ordered a new filter, air pump and a few bits and pieces and got it the next working day very happy and surprised as advertised Royal Mail up to 5 days so delighted. Downside was pump had as small manufacturing fault and when contacted RA they replaced both the mid and lower sections very quickly. Will definately use them again.

Great Site, Helpful staff and Great products.

I have brought a few things from the site now over the last couple of years, including 2 great fish tanks.
With each order, everything arrived quickly and very well packaged.
The staff were very helpful and quick to respond to my email query and overall i have been very impressed and pleased with RocketAquatics.

Good product, good price and good delivery :)

My tank was delivered very quickly (on the day specified) and was very well packed so no breakages occurred. Also a great price when compared to other sites for the same tank. I will definately be shopping here again!
