The order was quick and easy to place, and paid £9.99 for next day delivery as needed the parasol at short notice. Very disappointed with UK mail, sent me a text to say they would deliver between 6-7pm, so made sure I was home from work, only to find a card through the door to say they had tried to deliver at 13.25. Rang them the next morning, to discuss , and they were very unhelpful, couldn't give me an estimated delivery time, wouldn't leave in garden as signature was required, and said I would just have to take the chance and see if I was in. Couldn't take the risk of not getting, so went and bought another locally. As it happened it arrived when someone was in, so had 2. This one protected my friend well from the sun, but broke by the end of the day. It was only £6.99, so didn't have high expectations , and it was a small price to pay to not get burnt.
