“Think we've all been missled by the name Thompson-Mogan instead of Thompson AND Morgan! I shall now inform the original company and also complain to e-bay, which is where I made my purchase from. I thought it strange that T and M were selling on that site!”

“My order for a trio of canna lily orientalis was placed by 15th June and I was informed that delivery would be within three days. This was then changed to the middle of July. It is now the end of July and I am still waiting. According to my order record, it is scheduled for delivery on 28th February 2022! This is the most disappointing birthday present I have ever ordered. A previous order, 26th May has still not been received.”

“Ordered hanging baskets with fuchsias in them. One arrived late, totally destroyed in transit, complained and eventually two more arrived, one unannounced. Both in the same damaged condition as the first one. Very cheap flimsy hanging baskets, plants tipped out and soil everywhere ! Cannot believe how they are still trading sending out rubbish like this. Will never buy from them again !!”

“If I could give zero stars I would. Sent me 13 plants of which several were dying. I planted the vaguely healthy remainder only to watch them die too (of late tomato blight as diagnosed by RHS) and infect my entire greenhouse with the loss of all my existing 20+ tomato plants. I sent T&M photos of the greenhouse devastation they caused and asked for plant and soil replacement costs of £45 (I sent a copy of the receipt for the replacements). They said they don't give compensation and offered me a £25 voucher. Never again - run don't walk in the opposite direction.”

“Unbelievably absolute rubbish service Unbelievably absolute rubbish service, Paid nearly £1000 for some artificial hedge rolls, and 2 weeks later it is still sitting in the couriers warehouse, call them to ask where it is and they don't eben know, No order confirmation, nor invoice or tracking numbers, I had to constantly chase to the point I gave up and asked for a refund. They don't even know what a VAT invoice or credit note is so it can be filed with accounts.”

“Waited weeks for 48 thimbles..what T&M laughingly call plugs! Do yourself a favour, stay well clear and support your local shops and nurseries instead.”

“I have been a T&M customer for many years, but things have just got worse. No delivery, yet again, ``must have got lost in transit`` and ``sorry, none left to send to you``. I have put up in the past with less than 90% success rate, but this year, 8 days delivery time on earlier orders has ruined nearly all plug plants. Perennials ordered in January and again in May all failed to arrive. I now read in Which magazine (May 2021) that T&M fall next to bottom in customer satisfaction surveys. I just purchased plug plants from a rival firm with prompt delivery and 100% success rate.”

“The same experience as so many reviews here. Dreadful isn't the word. Ordered the 72 perennials described as 'spectacular', plus Maxicrop treatment back in March. Delivery dates kept changing and luckily I'd taken screenshots of the mythical dates or I'd be doubting my sanity. I've ended up buying locally to fill gaps. Plants arrived yesterday, package and plants are battered, dead or non existent. Have potted on some more in hope. I had a great experience with Crocus last year in lockdown, kept me informed and plants flourished. This is exactly the opposite, 'spectacular'? I think not. Unless you count the spectacular disappointment/waste of money. Never again, use your bargepole at full tilt.”

“Ordered Pirennial Plugs on 13/03/21, delivery specified as end April, didnt arrive, so delivery revised to 17/05/21, didnt arrive, so contacted T & M, didnt reply until prompted, delivery revised to Mid June. Plants eventually arrived in a poor state having been in transit for a week. Order took 3 months for delivery of inferior quality plants. Never again...... wish i'd have read the reviews before ordering.”

“My personal opinion is that I wish I had read the reviews before ordering as I would not have touched this company with a barge pole as they state blatantly unachievable timescales for delivery times on their website! I placed my order on April 11th and my particular items were advertised as being out delivery in 3 working days, so far so good. However this is not the case as once they have your payment, they change the goal posts by saying it won’t be delivered for at least 2 weeks (or much more). When contacting customer service, you are met with a standard response: “Unfortunately, as we are dealing with live plants delays can occur if the plant are not quite ready to be dispatched.” This should be made clear BEFORE they take payment as they give customers false expectations and then hit them with unacceptable delays in delivery. My order for bare root strawberry plants was delayed and came 2 weeks after the advertised delivery date. Unfortunately 4 showed signs of disease and have since died. My Calibrachoa Postiplugs did not arrive until 28th May, almost 7 weeks later. The customer care team (via their s.media email) were actually very apologetic and did their best to try and resolve my issue and, having worked in customer service myself before, I do feel sympathy for the customer care advisors as they must be run ragged, trying to fight fires caused by T&M’s unsustainable business model. It appears that this issue is not a new one as highlighted in an consumer champion article in The Guardian in 2019. Suffice to say that as a new customer who recently discovered T&M, I will never use this company again which is a shame for them as I am a very keen gardener who invests heavily and they will miss out on hundreds of pounds of potential future orders.”

“I wish I had read these posts before ordering. The 'garden ready' plants are nothing more than bigger sized plugs and although the geraniums have survived every begonia once planted into pots/hanging baskets has rotted off at soil level. The Cosmos are more than half dead (and they are hard to kill usually. Simply a waste of money - don't even consider it!”

“Very disappointed when after a long wait my geraniums arrived dead. I put it down to experience and waited for my veg plugs which took even longer to be delivered. Didn’t expect them to be so bad.”

“Why can't you give less than one star? It's all this company deserves. No respect for customers at all, just keep sending out pure and utter rubbish. How they still trade is beyond me. Never again will I part with my money to wait over 3 months to receive dead plugs that wasn't even fit enough for the compost heap.”

“I don't know what it is like to order for myself but ordering a gift to be delivered to someone else is a nightmare. I just could not get the system to recognise that I am the billing address and my friend is delivery address. I have been and changed it now but given the order I made in April has not despatched yet I don't know if it will actually go to the right address. Plus bombarded by daily adverts but unable to take advantage of money off for referring to friend and neither is he. I am going to unsubscribe as soon as know the delivery has been made.”

“If it was possible to give less than 1 star, that's what I would give. Every negative comment on here is correct and I wish I'd read them before ever buying anything from this company. AVOID.”
