Hi Malcolm,

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re genuinely sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating it must have been to not receive your order and to have the payment returned without any explanation.

This isn't the standard of service we aim to provide. If you’d be willing to contact our customer service team on info@leylandsdm.co.uk with your order details, we’d appreciate the opportunity to look into what happened and provide further clarification.

Many thanks.

Well I've ordered for the second time

Well I've ordered for the second time. Ordered for delivery but still waiting on it the first time I got a refund this time I'm waiting on it. Who ever made the website has either put click and collect into the same button.coz I pressed the delivery. So am I going to get my item that I ordered or not.

Order was unable to be delivered to…

Order was unable to be delivered to home address in North East despite this being the second order and we had received the first order. Numerous phone calls to various numbers who were unable to help or provide a customer service number so spent ages on phone chasing an order. Eventually spoke to someone in Finance who went out the way to help and kept up to date with us and payment returned and ordered cancelled as unable to deliver even though explained had received first order but pleased with the ladies help in finance as was getting stressful with all the calls and unable to help.

Hi Graeme,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we’re really sorry to hear about the issues you faced with your second order. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been, especially after successfully receiving your first delivery.

This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, particularly when it comes to communication and support. We’re looking into what may have caused the delivery issue and why it was so difficult to get clear assistance.

We’re pleased to hear that our colleague in Finance was able to step in and support you during what sounds like a stressful situation and once again apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Many thanks.
