“My order went in on 20 April. I accepted that in the difficult circumstances of lockdown delivery would take longer than usual. I was told up to 21 days. It has been 28 days and no sign of any delivery. All e mails get an automated response saying that it could take up t 21 days. No answer when trying to phone them despite the automated message saying that someone would respond in 15 seconds. Al in all a very poor service.”

“I understand that during the covid virus it was difficult for firms to deliver goods. Having said that it was over a month before I got my order. When it arrived the plant plugs were in a terrible condition and have only been able to use 35 plug plants out of 80. The packaging was fine so it was not to do with that. The plants looked badly looked after.”

“Ordered took 6 weeks to arrive. I appreciate it’s difficult times but really feel this company has over stretched themselves. Emailed to chase and never received a response, eventually got through on the phone and said my order would be dispatched within a week. It arrived this weekend and I am hugely disappointed. Such poor value. The plug plants are tiny and virtually dead. One perennial which cost £7 looks very poor. Such a waste of money. I certainly won’t be placing another order and wouldn’t recommend anyone else does.”

“Blimey. Was about to order over £100 worth of plants but having read the reviews below, I will take my money elsewhere!”

“My bank (used debit card) charged this company’s bank for my full refund, surprise 24 hours later I get a personal email saying they’re on way. All come dry and just thrown in a box and half dead. Plugs were just loose, some could’ve even be saved. Japanese anemones meant to be 9cm are about 1cm and look like a little leaf poking out of the soil where I’ve planted them. Awful awful service. AVOID.”

“I could have written half of the complaints below. I ordered £90 worth of items on 32 March. Received the compost a couple of weeks ago but no plants. No response from them. Unacceptable”

“Placed an order on 8th April. Confirmation of order received saying delivery would be 7-10 days. Nothing received almost a month later, emails only get an automated reply saying delivery will take 21 days.....and to only chase orders after that time, further email queries receive exactly the same response! Completely useless customer service.....suggest people shop for their plants elsewhere.”

“Demand is obviously too much for this company, shut down the website, stop taking orders and fill the orders that have already been paid for, no response to emails and premium rate phone number which leaves you on hold indefinitely.”

“I ordered 40 Begonia plug plants from Blooming Direct.When they arrived they had been squashed into a narrow plastic box -and bent by the postman. When I opened this box many leaves and stems were broken off .I managed to save only 15 plants out of the 40! (and to be honest I am not sure that they will survive!) I contacted Blooming Direct twice but they never had the decency to reply. I understand that they are very busy during the Corona Virus but this is not good enough ! I have purchased other plug plants this year and they were in a similar plastic box but then they had an outer cardboard box for protection .I will never use this company again .Poor customer services and poor packaging.”

“Still awaiting plants ordered through Wowcher, I did expect a delay, however I did expect my queries to be responded to, wowcher were not interested and told me i had to go through the merchant website which appears to be closed.”

“Where do I start. Placed an order on line due to ‘Lock-down’ on 17th April. Wanted to add 2 additional items to order but was told this was not possible. 7 days later received an email confirming the 2 items had been added to my order and the money had beef debited from my account. Rang them on the high tariff number explaining I had sourced the items from another company. Got a refund after a bit of a struggle. As for the original order still awaiting delivery. They have clearly taken on too many orders and are unable to offer a creditable service. Have today emailed the company insisting on a full refund if plants are not delivered by Wednesday (21 days from order)”

“Hi Don't order from this company! Placed a £75 order with them and only the compost arrived, no plants. It's now more than a month and nothing. No response to emails and no-one answering the phone. Absolutely shocking!”

“Ordered on 31st March still waiting for delivery, customer service is non excitent and a Premier rate phone number which I was not aware of until the bill came. I have now contacted PayPal to refund my money. I understand we are in an unprecedented situation but just an email to let us know what's happening would go a long way. Just ignoring the customer makes them nervous.”
