VERY UNPROFESSIONAL COMPANY AND DELIVERY SERVICE.
I am currently renovating a property that I have not yet moved into, and I made this VERY CLEAR before placing my order. I spent CLOSE TO £500 on tiles and contacted the company the day after placing the order to ensure my delivery instructions were noted. I explicitly requested a ONE-HOUR PRIOR CALL or a TIME SLOT so I could be present to accept the delivery. I even ATTACHED A NOTE to my order clearly stating this — which they acknowledged, but then COMPLETELY FAILED TO FOLLOW. Instead, my order was delivered at 7AM and LEFT UNATTENDED OUTSIDE THE PROPERTY, on a main road, with NO ONE THERE to receive it and NO SAFE PLACE to leave it. I received NO PHONE CALL, NO DELIVERY EMAIL, NOTHING.
When I raised this, I was told the courier chose not to call because 6AM was “NOT A REASONABLE TIME” — yet somehow it WAS considered reasonable to leave nearly £500 worth of tiles UNATTENDED, NOT SIGNED FOR, and COMPLETELY EXPOSED outside my home.
As you can see in the photo, multiple boxes were simply stacked outside by the front window. Anyone walking past could have taken them. I STILL DO NOT EVEN KNOW IF ALL THE BOXES ARE ACCOUNTED FOR, as they were left there for hours without supervision.
When I contacted customer service, I spoke to Stacey, who showed ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY. She repeatedly stated that “YOU PAID FOR DELIVERY AND IT WAS DELIVERED” and insisted it was “DELIVERED WITH CARE,” while actively DEFENDING THE COURIER rather than addressing the real issue — that my CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS were ignored and my order was put at risk.
No apology, no resolution, no compensation — not even a refund of the £40 delivery fee. The only suggestion was for me to go and collect it myself, as if that resolves anything. Because of this, I had to make multiple unnecessary trips, coordinate with my husband, transport the tiles myself, and check everything after it had been sitting outside for hours. This completely defeats the purpose of paying for a delivery service.
THIS IS NOT PROFESSIONAL. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.
Very poor customer service, no responsibility taken, and a complete lack of care for customer property.
I will NEVER use this company again and would STRONGLY NOT RECOMMEND them to anyone.
NOT WORTH THE MONEY OR THE STRESS.
