Disappointing experience
Previously had a decent ordering service for tyres. However this occasion (via the cycle to work scheme) has been a nightmare. I ordered a bike and accessories - it’s been almost two months and it’s not all been delivered yet. I’ve had to chase constantly by phone to be told that there’s no reason why it couldn’t be dispatched - only to be told that it hadn’t been dispatched and they were unsure why. Initially it was blamed on one of the accessories being out of stock, so I repeatedly asked for the rest to be dispatched without that part. Eventually I was told (after chasing) the bike had a faulty part from Giant, so they had to order a new part which delayed the build. I was not kept informed and the fact I’m still waiting for the accessories is so disappointing. If it wasn’t a cycle to work order I would have cancelled it and ordered somewhere else. I also raised a formal complaint by email and haven’t received a response. It’s been really disappointing from what I hoped to have been a reliable independent shop.
