Their machines are literally the worst I`ve met with. there are 2 in my workplace both of them using faulty goods lift system, so sometimes I can`t even start the transaction because the machine just detect wrong lifting mechanics. Pricing is ridiculous, £2.10 for a 500ml bottle of soda. not to mention those not even rare occasions when I don`t get the previously paid goods because on the randomly chosen spot the soda bottle sits on the top of the spiral. Often wrongly stacked loosely refilled hardly supervised garbage.

Exceptional 24/7 Vending Service with Outstanding Customer Support

Exceptional 24/7 Vending Service with Outstanding Customer Support

We’ve been using RSL for our 24-7 vending needs, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The convenience of 24/7 access to fully stocked machines has been a huge benefit to our patients, staff and visitors alike, but what really sets this provider apart is their top-notch customer service.

Whenever we've had a question or needed support, their team has responded quickly, professionally, and with a genuine willingness to help. It's clear they care about both the quality of their machines and the satisfaction of their customers. Restocking is always timely, machines are clean and modern, and any issues (which are rare) are resolved promptly.

Reliable, responsive, and refreshingly customer-focused — I highly recommend RSL to any business looking for a worry-free 24-7 vending solution.

Dan Kennedy and The Vendor Boys have been working together for 12 months now, and throughout this time, the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. Most recently, Dan helped me with two new vending machines, and once again, everything went perfectly.

Dan is incredibly knowledgeable and always goes the extra mile to make sure everything runs smoothly. The delivery of the machines was quick and right on schedule, which made the entire process seamless. The team handling the delivery and setup was professional, friendly, and ensured the machines were installed exactly as needed.

There were no issues at all during delivery or installation — the machines were up and running in no time. Dan’s attention to detail, excellent communication, and commitment to providing top-quality service really stand out.

After a year of working together, I can confidently say Dan is reliable, efficient, and genuinely cares about his customers’ success. I would highly recommend Dan Kennedy to anyone looking for a trustworthy partner for their vending needs.
