They don't just say - if I can help - they do

The personal touch is not something that I expect in this day and age. The fact that Rachel contacted me that day to thank me for the order. When I contacted her to try to amend the order due to my mistake it was not "well the order stands its too late now" it was "lets see how we can help with this" and she did! It wasn't a big order in the scheme of things but there will be others and if I can use Cost Cutter I will.

Hi,

Thank you for the great review!
We will pass your lovely compliments to Rachel.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great customer service

Great customer service. Great furniture. Only reason not a score of 5 is that it wasn't delivered on the day we agreed but this was immediately resolved and the furniture was delivered on the next agreed date.

Staff were helpful

Staff were always on hand to help. One parcel went AWOL but they chased up a replacement and never dallied. The equipment which was for SEN children was assembled straightforwardly with no difficulty and is sturdy.

Thank you for your review, Alison. We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the product, but disappointed to read your comments about customer service.

Your query was being handled with the supplier, which meant we needed to wait for confirmation before providing a final update. During this time our team responded as soon as we had a resolution.

We understand that waiting can be frustrating, but your enquiry was being actively managed throughout. We’re sorry you feel the experience did not meet expectations, and we appreciate the feedback.

Fab purchase, would definitely use again

Really pleased with the pedestal received. Fits perfectly under my desk. Super quick delivery and very good communications with the seller. My only concern was the carriage costs but the low price for the item compensated this anyway so still a reasonable price

Hi Vicki, thank you for your review!

Beware of the delivery charges!

UPDATE

I have been asked by Costcutters to change my original review below, on the basis that the ad I found for the company when I googled (which stated free delivery) had been placed by a third party and was inaccurate.

However, given that there was no information on Costcutters' actual website about delivery charges, and that I only found out at checkout that the delivery charge for two A4 display books was £12 (which luckily I noticed in time), I think that my original review still stands.

I have now found another excellent UK company where I bought eight similar items plus two other items, with delivery, for less than I would have paid for two items with delivery at Costcutters.

I have just reviewed the other company, should anybody wish to check it out.

FURTHER UPDATE

I see that Cost Cutters have now responded to my post.

I have indeed been in correspondence with them. Unless they have now changed it, delivery prices are not shown in the delivery information on their website.

When I pointed out to them that this was not transparent, as they claimed, they did not reply.

Trust Pilot have emailed me to confirm that despite Cost Cutters' complaint to them (mentioned at the end of their response below), everything I have said on here conforms to their guidelines.

ORIGINAL REVIEW

I wanted to buy two presentation display books. These were just over £3 each.

I couldn't find any information on the website about delivery charges, but when I had googled it said free delivery. I have a screenshot of this.

When I went to check out, I found I was being charged £12 for delivery 😮

Needless to say, I will be buying these items elsewhere.

Beware!

Hello Sue,

We are disappointed to see this review remain in place despite the clarification we provided after reaching out to you directly in good faith.

No purchase was made, and to our knowledge, no contact was made with our team prior to this review being posted to clarify delivery charges or raise any concerns. Our team is always available to help customers understand pricing, delivery, or product information before placing an order.

Following your review, we investigated the screenshot you provided and confirmed that the “free delivery” message originated from a third-party affiliate deals website, not from Cost Cutters UK. While we understand how this may have caused initial confusion, this advert was not published by us. We therefore have no control over the information shown in that listing.

Delivery charges on the Cost Cutters UK website are calculated and clearly displayed during the checkout process before any payment is taken. As you confirmed in your review, you saw the £11.99 delivery charge before completing the order and chose not to proceed. At no stage were delivery charges hidden, misleading, or added after the fact.

For full transparency, our delivery information is publicly available here:
https://www.costcuttersuk.com/shipping-delivery

We have contacted the affiliate platform responsible for the incorrect advert and asked them to correct the delivery information and review any other listings they may have created for our products.

We welcome fair and accurate feedback. However, leaving a negative review based on incorrect third-party advertising, particularly where no purchase was made, and the checkout process functioned exactly as intended, presents an unfair and misleading reflection of our business, despite our efforts to explain the situation clearly and transparently.

We would also note that referencing another supplier within this review is not appropriate in this context, and this has been reported to Trustpilot for review under their guidelines.

Our reading tree is a great addition to our EYFS area! It has inspired us to recreate and redecorate the room into the Jungle! We now have leaves covering the walls and monkeys hanging from our new reading tree!

Excellent service from Cost Cutters

Excellent service from Cost Cutters. Stephanie, our account manager, always goes above and beyond to make sure we get great quality furniture at the best price. She’s incredibly patient, helpful, and full of great suggestions. I’d highly recommend Cost Cutters, especially if Stephanie is assisting you.

Incredible service, highly recommend

I cannot thank Cost Cutters and their staff enough. I received incredible service received by Rachel Shotton, I made a last minute urgent order for my son's birthday. Rachel went above and beyond to ensure I received the item in time. Thank you, and I look forward to more purchases with this reliable and trustworthy company.

Discount code

Your website offered me a discount code as a new customer for my order and sent it to me 24hours after I placed my order

Hi Mr Wales,
Thank you for getting in touch.

We don’t currently offer a specific discount code for new customers.

That said, we do run a number of different promotions from time to time. If you’re able to let us know the discount code you were sent (or forward the email if possible), we’ll be happy to look into this for you and get a clearer understanding of what may have happened.

Kind regards,
Cost Cutters UK

Pleased that they sell items you…

Pleased that they sell items you wouldn't normally be able to get but annoying when you're sent a 10% off code and it only gives you 1% 😂

Thank you so much for your review - we really appreciate you shopping with us.

Just to clarify, we don’t currently offer (and haven’t previously offered) a 10% discount code. If you’ve seen a “10% off” code on a third-party website, it’s not an official Cost Cutters UK promotion.

The code you’re referring to is one of our basket-value discount codes, where the saving is worked out from the total value of your order - so the more you spend, the more you save.

Thanks again for your feedback, and we’re glad you found what you were looking for with us.

Excellent Customer Sevice!

I have received the best customer service from costcuttersuk.com, thanks to Lucy Cook. From start to finish, Lucy has been incredibly easy to contact and always responds quickly, which makes such a difference. Any issues I have had have been resolved promptly and in the most professional manner, leaving me feeling completely supported as a customer. Her friendly, efficient approach and clear communication have made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the service I have received and look forward to working with Lucy again on future orders. She is a real credit to the company.
