Don't bother trying to call them to book a delivery, I've been on hold for 45 minutes as no1 in the queue but no answer yet I hear a beep every now and then as though I keep getting put on hold. Don't waste your time.

Absolutely shocking service from this company. Twice they arrived at destination and called wrong number and then left without even making an effort to get in contact with me. When I phoned up the first time, I asked them to call me half an hour before so I could meet them at the premise and gave them the mobile number to call, confirming it twice them and they still called wrong mobile number. Second time had the guy at NextDayCatering, the company I bought the fridge from call and confirm all details with them, rearrange delivery for the next day and again same thing happened. Eventually cancelled

I have seen some of the poor reviews regarding this company especially regarding the drivers. However my dealings with this company regarding the delivery of my French doors was nothing but excellent. I was contacted to arrange a day. I received text confirming. The driver (Rory) contacted me on the day saying he was about an hour away. He arrived on time and was most helpful and polite.

What a jokers these people are. I am just surprised they are still in business. And I dont understand how come big commercial companies like Bunzl and Lockhart using these amateurs. Marie from customer team only ticking boxes and do not rally care whether you got the items or not. Top management on hols and no one to talk to. Tailer- the driver cannot find the place but then once in he made a call and when not answered he didnt even tried to wait and went off. This sadly happened on numerous occasions. Avoid these jokers. 3 stars- someone was really generous.. if I could give them zero

Worst courier service I have ever used. Charged and additional 69 to redeliver because they arrived when we were closed, even though we told them our opening times. Rude staff too.
