“It hasn't arrived yet”

Posted 7 years ago

Thank you for your review and your order. We are sorry to hear that you encountered problems when dealing with us. We understand the delay with your order has caused great inconvenience for you and we are as disappointed as you are with the most recent delay. The products themselves are manufactured in house but unfortunately we have been let down by our suppliers of the raw material which we source externally. Please accept our apologies once again for any inconvenience caused.

“Further to my earlier review about my fruit cage damaged in transit, I called last Saturday and was promised that the replacement uprights would be sent express delivery on Monday. It is now a week later and they have still not been received. I received an email on Wednesday telling me to dispose of the old ones which will require a trip to the dump so really bad service on three counts now. So disappointed as have used Harrod before with no problems. Will never use them again.”

“No pegs were supplied. The special brackets were very impractical. The short fat screws would not penetrate the wood with a screwdriver, and the brackets needed to be fixed below soil level. (There was no room for an electric drill to be used.) The cover was labelled 4ft x 4ft, but was undersized, (more like 3ft 6in). Consequently one corner of the cover split and tore, when it was being fitted. I had to buy my own mounting brackets and a tarpaulin for a cover. The only serviceable parts were the tubular hoops used for the frame. £74.90 wasted!!”

Thank you for your review and your order. We are very disappointed to learn that the item you ordered did not meet your expectations. As we are always trying to improve both the products we supply and the service we provide to our customers, we have forwarded your findings to our Product Development Team, who have the remit to evaluate any products which may be considered to be underperforming. We do state in both our catalogue and on our website that the PVC covers are designed to fit on the inside of our 4ft x 4ft Raised Beds so will be slightly smaller than this size. We will however, pass your comments on to see if this information can be made clearer. We understand that the issue has been resolved with a member of our Customer Services Team and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

“When I confirmed my purchase the delivery charge more than doubled - very much "sharp practice " Don't contact me again!!!!”

Thank you for your order and review. You comment on the cost of delivering an order outside of the UK mainland. We would like to explain the situation regarding delivery and prices across the country. As the range of products we manufacture and supply is so diverse in size and shape, we have to rely on couriers, to deliver the vast majority of our orders. To calculate their delivery tariff our couriers split the country into various zones governed by postcodes and unfortunately, delivery to some areas attracts an extra charge. We realise this is not an ideal situation but as our trade increases, we hope to be able to reduce this charge so deliveries to the whole of the UK mainland cost exactly the same. If it is any consolation, we do not add a surcharge to the figure our couriers charge us; in fact, we subsidise the £15.95 delivery cost on every order. Wherever possible, we try to send our products by Royal Mail or similar postal services but, as we mentioned above, the size, shape and weight of many of our products precludes this. We hope this is of help to you and thank you again for your order.

“Hi. This is the second email I've received asking for a review of the products I've ordered however I haven't actually received the products!! It's been 4 weeks since ordering and I've been promised phone calls and emails to keep me up to date on the parts that are out of stock but so far I've received nothing. The customer service has been shockinginly poor.”

“I waited nearly a month for delivery. Despite the website saying goods were in stock at the time of ordering, it turned out that one component, the butterfly netting, wasn't. Although Harrod chased the supplier concerned it took ages for the netting to arrive in stock. Whilst Harrod was quick to respond to my emails enquiring about progress, the company was not proactive in contacting me first. Furthermore, in spite of the long delay for the goods to be ready to be shipped, and despite a specific request from me that they were shipped by express delivery, they appear to have been sent by the slowest route possible - at the time of writing this, five days after everything was in stock, nothing has arrived at my house. Whilst I've used Harrod a number of times in the past, the bad experience this time has put me off using this company again.”

“Very poor. First time I used this company, ordered parts but they never arrived. Sales team didn't have a clue what happened. Will never use again”

“The delivery service was very bad, e.g. phone number left on the card they left was no longer valid. Seems you rely on people taking a day off to receive parcel.”

“I recently purchased a Cherry tree sleeve which seemed like a good idea however, it is too heavy, the one bough I managed to put it on bent almost to the ground with the weight of it. It is also so stiff it is very difficult to attach the ties. A total waste of money.”

“VERY slow delivery - it took weeks to come. I would use Amazon next time for faster delivery Quality seems okay , but it's expensive for what it is.”

Thank you for your review and your order. We are sorry to hear of the delay with your delivery. This was due to stock issues with our Rigid Heavy Duty Butterfly Netting. Whilst most of our products are manufactured by ourselves, regrettably the Rigid Heavy Duty Butterfly Netting is a bought in product and we are completely in the hands of our suppliers regarding stock dates. We understand that your order has now been delivered and we would like to apologies once again for any inconvenience.

“It would be good to review your company and quality of goods if I had received them. It's been one delay after another and very poor customer service .Ordered the day after my Chelsea visit and it's only a few days off the 1' st of July. What more can I say!!”

“I ordered an item online on 22nd May as a birthday present. On the website it stated that the item was in stock. The next day I received an email to say that the item was in fact out of stock but that HH was expecting delivery on 27th May. I have since received an email every week telling me that the item will be delayed for yet another week. A month has now gone by and I have still not received my order. When I rang customer services I was assured that the item would be arriving but this is clearly not the case. I am extremely disappointed.”

“They do not, in my experience, have any concept of what good customer service is, let alone great customer service. Archaic ordering system only allows full delivery options when orders made by phone - but the web site doesn't tell you that. "Customer service" unable to,say when delivery would be made. Delivery got lost, or was never despatched properly, so it arrived over two days. Carrier had no tracking method available. When it arrived, this was not what I expected nearly £200 worth of staging to look like. Dented trays, lower shelves are not height adjustable, slats do not fix in place, not as robust as I expected for the premium price. Bent corners to two trays. Given that I had to argue to get even a refund of postage due to the delivery mess up ( no other compensation was offered) I didn't bother complaining about the quality as from my experience so far I had lost the will to live over this product and this company.”
