Hi Lynne,

Thank you for your review. We're really sorry for the delays and inconvenience caused.

We have reached out to the supplier, and it appears they have been experiencing issues with their texting system. We have passed on your feedback, and we expect your delivery to take place on Wednesday.

Kind regards,
The Buy Fencing Direct Team

Very poor quality panels

Very poor quality panels. Claim to be treated but not treated at all and have arrived with green growth on all the panels. Very flimsy and not worth the money at all.

Good quality panels built to the advertised size.

Delivery was done at the announced time and driver was super helpful.

I won't look anywhere else for fence panels in future. This company was A1.

Fence never arrived

I paid for a specific delivery slot (given I had workmen booked in to complete the work, and I obviously waited in on the delivery day for my order) but received no communication beyond a delivery note with photos of a random location just 15 minutes into my paid slot. The delivery note said ‘delivery not signed for, driver ran out of hours’. There was no initiative from the delivery partner or company. I had to call to enquire. When I called to rearrange, I was told there was no option but to go to the back of the queue. That meant waiting another week and a half with no guarantee. I was told there was no possibility for me to be put on the next delivery van, or even the ones after, I’d be at the back of the queue as if I’d just ordered there and then. This is totally frustrating and a kick in the teeth after already having missed the paid for delivery slot. Apparently even non-paid for slots can’t be nudged in delivery time, hence going to the back of the queue - a backwards system if you ask me. I asked for a refund instead, and ended up buying from another retailer who delivered exactly what I ordered, on time. Disappointed and frustrating. Would avoid.

We would like to clarify our position as an online retailer. We do not distribute any goods; all deliveries are made directly by the supplier. Therefore, we will be passing on your feedback, along with our disappointment in the service you received.

Kind regards,
