“They’re selling trees from other suppliers at extortionate prices. The sizes are hyped up to make you think you’re getting more for your money. Shop around, there are better tree/garden companies than this one! Read these reviews before you buy from this company.”
“Fantastic service from Trees on line. This is our second order from the our first being of a weeping willow 7 years ago which is a much admired focal point in our garden. This time the size ordered was out of stock so the great sales team took the discussion to supply a larger one at no extra cost. The tree has arrived and we are thrilled with it. Hopefully it will mature like the last one in less time seeing the head start it has. Fantastic service guys…”
“Fantastic. Website made me laugh out loud - very unusual for me. It was a very informative site. I was kept informed as to the progress of my order. Great quality tree arrived. My email was replied to the same day. Cannot be bettered. WOULD USE AGAIN. I really do not understand the comments from the grumpies. I consider trees online one of the best sites I have EVER bought from.”
“Total waste of time dealing with this company. Communications terrible and products selling are non-existent.
Be prepared to chase for updates and prepare to be disappointed.”
“I ordered a Blireana Ornamental Plum Tree with pink blossom, however then being a typical woman, changed my mind and decided i would prefer a white blossom tree ! I emailed the site and after a conversation explaining what i would like i was sent a Prunus chocolate ice flowering cherry tree. It is in wonderful condition, very quick delivery, and customer service was above and beyond, Highly recommended and i couldnt be happier.”
“Tree (willow) arrived last
August looking ok but within 24 hours collapsed and all the greenery turned brown, contacted site and advised must have been the courier in very hot weather. Tree had to be radically pruned and has recovered this Spring but is less than half the size that I purchased, it will take 2-3 years to be at that growth again.
Tried to email under warranty for a partial refund, no reply and second emails now bouncing back as undeliverable.
Will not use again or recommend”
“Ordered from the website that looks like a throw back to the late 1990s when Windows 95 was a fresh release. Sadly, the stock keeping matches the website and the tree was never in stock. After leaving a fair 3star review on Trust Pilot, the owner decided to email with a patronising and condescending tone. He even responded that they were right and I was wrong. What kind of business speaks to their customers like that?”
“Excellent site which we've used on multiple occasions, both for larger ornamentals and smaller volume trees. Great service, brilliant humour, and a very friendly "human" feel. Trees are spot on too! Absolutely recommended.”
“having just discovered this site EXCELLENT & love the humour
extensive information not found on other sites, obvously very knowledgeable growers & passionate.will definately be using & reccomending them in the near future .

“Seems you can leave reviews based on their political beliefs and satire rather than their products and service (see reported review that is still up)
If that is the case then have a look at trees-online.co.uk for a light-hearted and allegedly funny communication style free of corporate dullness.”
“A company that does not supply exactly what you ordered, diseased, then tells you it’s consultant has said it’s normal for that particular tree ,when every other expert says it’s not and the tree is likely to die. But online all trees look perfect and in good condition. The trees are sent by couriers that do not give a dam about how they are thrown about in the vehicle. They may be well packed at first but will not be by the time they arrive. Any warranty given is never adhered to, just excuses and your fobbed off with the words it will be alright next year, if it lasts that long.”
“Purchased 12 fraser fir a few months ago, been in the ground a few months now and looking good. Helpful advice over the phone, if you can get through they seem popular. Would use again.”
“Trees-online also operates as Internat Consultancy and Management Ltd, Sycamore Drive in Chesterfield. We bought plants from them based on their advertised guarantee at the time. The plants died within a month and we were asked to send photographs. The owner replied by saying his 'tree expert' had said they might not be dead and that we should wait a year before they would give us replacements. We examined the plants and they were definitely dead above and below ground. A year later and the plants we transferred into pots were still as dead as the ones in the ground.
The owner spent months harassing us via review sites because we left a negative review. He made every excuse to try to blame us for his plants dying instead of honouring his warranty. He's even left comments over a year after ordering claiming it was our fault because we dug the plants up. They were already dead!
Avoid this business like the plague. The owner has no integrity.”
