Parcel arrived, no damage, all ok. However it took too long to arrive by Parcel Force (might have been on strike). Ordered on 25/8/23 arrived on 4/9/23. Other that this, no problems, thank you

Excellent and VERY prompt delivery

Placed my order for 4 x 2kg tubs of fish food for our fish in our pond and some pond treatment. The website said to expect delivery to be 3-5 working days. To my pleasant shock, the delivery arrived the day after I placed the order. Excellent service.

Good plants but poor delivery service

Sadly the courier service let down WoW. They don't have enough drivers. I received a text informing of delivery, I stayed in ALL DAY as they wouldn't leave plants otherwise, nothing arrived. This happened for the next 3 days. When delivery was finally made, the driver was lovely and apologetic, insisted I opened box and checked contents were still ok, just in case. I had only bought marginals which were still damp and easily perked up. WoW take note!
