An order I placed months ago was wrong
An order I placed months ago was wrong, I called before I placed this order and was assured that the wrong items sent previous had now been sorted out on the website and in the warehouse. I placed a very large order again and exactly the same things were sent wrong again.

The delivery driver is so rude
The delivery driver is so rude. He was not allowed to bring pallets into the building so we had to unload in the carpark in 35 degree heat.

I am really sorry to hear this. We will investigate this on our side and come back to you, thank you.
Delivery Driver Poor Service/Company response
Delivery driver left over 30 parcels outside the school without even letting us know, then just drove off on 23/6/2026. following response i feel i can upgrade this review to match how i feel the company will insure that the deliveries of goods is handled better and feel an apologetic gift of biscuits etc. is a nice extra touch.
