I first started using YouGarden last year when I had a totally new garden to plant. I originally bought a pack of 3 dwarf buddleias and later on bought a tree. I also bought plants this year before coved 19. I was initially quite impressed by their service as I ordered the plants and they came within a reasonable length of time whereas other companies I have used before take the money for plants and then see to grow to order leading to waits measured in months I first became somewhat dissatisfied when I tried to invoke their lifetime guarantee as one of my buddleias died. I did not notice that their phone number was a premium rate number until the call used all the credit on my phone! My understanding of the law is that all companies must now publish a standard rate phone number and as far as I can tell YouGarden is clearly in breach of this. There is also a catch in the lifetime guarantee. If you ask to have a plant replaced under the lifetime guarantee you have to pay the £6.99 postage charge, and YouGarden have not been willing to include the replacement plant in with another order. I do not remember hw much the buddleias were originally but they were not much more than £6.99. I have bought more plants from them recently than I would have done if it were not for covid 19 and they have all come, all be it later than I would have expected but yesterday I received an Apple tree with leaf curl. I find this really unacceptable as this could potentially infect every other tree in my garden, and it actually came in a delivery of four trees. I have sent them an email about the tree which is covered under their 30 day unconditional guarantee, but of course I can’t burn it until I get a response from them. Long waits for deliveries and customer service only by phone seem to be par for the course under covid 19. I am currently trying to find out what has happened to a cosmos that I ordered from Sutton’s in March. My concern is how the customer service is provided under normal circumstances, the lack of a standard rate phone number, which I think is a matter for trading standards, an whether the guarantees are genuine. I may post again when I find out!
