Pleased with order

My order arrived well packaged. Very pleased with the Christmas tree which will be very easy to assemble and switched on in minutes.
A lovely addition to my present decorations and will enhance my lounge.

Lovely (very early) Christmas display

Early Christmas shopping as I missed on this item last year. It was a good price and delivery was perfect- not left on a doorstep and actually rang the doorbell. The item is lovely and it was good that the company notified me that it was available now. Sad I know preparing for Christmas in July but at least I know this item is here and I know my daughter and her family will love it.

Great service

Great service - ordered a Christmas decoration and not only was it much more reasonably priced than other places, but also delivered super fast!

Coca Cola polar bear Christmas tree decorations

After ordering two Christmas tree decorations, I was very pleased to receive them in just a few days, reasonably priced and exactly as described. The recipient will be thrilled to add these to his collection. I would definitely buy from here again, very happy with my purchase, Thankyou very much.

My parcel was left in an unsecured…

My parcel was left in an unsecured location and I did not receive it. The seller relied solely on a photograph of the package left unattended as “proof of delivery.” A photo of a parcel sitting somewhere other than my home address does not demonstrate that it was delivered into my possession — only that it was left there.

I am still seeking a full refund. Based on how this has been handled I would not recommend this company. Absolutely disgraceful service!

Note- Southwood Garden Centre as you are refusing to respond to my emails and calls - Royal Mail have advised me that you need to complete the “claim form” this is standard procedure when parcels are lost or stolen! Why are you refusing to complete this standard request for Royal Mail? 

Who Claims: The sender should initiate the claim, as they hold the contract.
Where to Claim: Use the Royal Mail online claims centre for the fastest service, or use a P58 form available at Post Office branches.
Evidence Needed: You must provide proof of posting and evidence of the item's value.
