“Order my plants on Saturday 15/5/21. Still waiting for order even though said 3 /7 days. Have sent email twice heard Nothing. Really bad company will never deal with them again. Just had op so thought this would be easy option now going to have to struggle to the garden centre. Would never recommend or use again. Order 5782251”

Hi, I am sorry to hear about the wait as our delivery windows are in working days they would not include weekends or bank holidays. I have looked into the order and can see it is currently out for delivery today. - Meredyth

“I placed my order no. 5759919 on 2nd May with a delivery promised within 7 working days. Needless to say I have not received my plants yet. I spoke to an adviser and was told stock was a problem but the order would be with me within 7 days. Looking at the DX website they haven’t yet received an order for me so that’s not going to happen. What a company!”

“Appalling delivery, ordered plants on 1st May and was told they had been despatched on the 10th May. Today (24th May) the first of three packs of plug plants finally arrived - but it's safe to say I don't hold out much hope of them all surviving. Shame on you Primrose, other similar companies have continually delivered in good time and with high quality product”

“When I read the reviews here, I was concerned that I would be one of many who had a bad experience. But in all honesty, I had a pretty good experience with Primrose, apart from one issue. They mistakenly sent me an entire unit of 72 solar lights rather than the one box of 6 I ordered. It took a little while for them to get back to me when I raised a ticket, but once they did, they quickly arranged a courier to come and collect the surplus boxes. I also ordered a selection of plug plants, all of which arrived in perfect health. I've planted them all out and they're all thriving.”

“Ordered some pepper plants in early may and as of yesterday 21st may 2021 had heard nothing. sent an email asking when dispatch may be and received automated response back This infomed me they were extremeley busy and it may take a while to get a reply back. it also said dont send more emails as i may lose my place in their email queue!!! Received package today which seemed rather small so my husband videoed me opening it. Omg there was a brown paper bag with 2 peppers that were ok but small. Second had 3 manky dead peppers in it oviously being shaken about by the postman. Tried to ring them and had to press 2 for the customer service. This line is dead and cut me off. Rang again on the press 1 button and a man answered. I asked for an email adress to send a video of what i received and he put the phone down on me!!!¬ Buy from this company at you perill!!!”

“Absolute garbage what they sent. Packed plant is a water absorbing paper bag. Inside of box wet and space between plants on another variety was way too big, allowing the plants to fly around inside, breaking up and killing 2 of the 3 plants inside. May be able to salvage the 3rd. Rang them up as I wanted an email address to send the photos / videos took. The customer service advisor hung up on me. Within 10 seconds, so yeah, not impressed. No I was not ranting. Wont be ordering again”

“Plants did not arrive. I allowed extra time beyond published estimate before making several unsuccessful attempts to contact Primrose by email and telephone. Courier (DX) did not receive goods according to tracking information. Dispute now raised via PayPal for refund.”

“Shame I have to leave ONE star - would rather zero. Took my money, no delivery nearly a month later. Contacted many times, empty promises. Cannot speak to a manager, rude staff. Hides comments on social media so people don't see how inept they are. Do not use this company. Would be shocked if my demanded refund actually arrives!”

“I'm not being mean here, just totally honest. We ordered 5 planter troughs for a special occasion, well within time. We ordered the plants the day after and they arrived within 6 days. After 13 days however the planters have still not arrived. The special occasion was TODAY, it could have been so much prettier. The £760 spend is now pretty much wasted. I have just spent 39 minutes waiting on the line to be told that they would look into the matter and get back to me. One star is truly a high rating for Primrose.”

“I wish I had read these reviews before ordering! (However please read added review at ending!). I received my order (unlike many others), but the tree was virtually dead! I called (on line 1 for sales, line 2 is permanently closed!) on the day of delivery, and was told yo email with photos. I duly did this and a ticket was raised which says "being processed". One week later, I have heard nothing. I have added a further message to the ticket with no effect. I phone the sales line today, where the employee told me they had no access to information and could not help me in any way, but all returns were being dealt with and to use the website. The website does not recognise my original customer number and I now suspect that I will not see £58 again!! I have to give credit where it is due. I was contacted by Primrose shortly after leaving this review (probably because of it!) and they have given me a full refund with no expectation to send the damaged plant back. The money was returned swiftly, and it's just a shame I had to go through this process to make it happen!”

“We had terrible service from this company last year. I paid by credit card and was reimbursed in the end by the credit card. I am shocked these customer complaints are continuing and this company really needs to be investigated. I son their own website they are claiming 4 stars. How can this be. Meredith who appears as a responder to the bulk of complaints must be a very busy person or is just an automated response.”

“Ordered goods from this website over a month ago (with a 10-15 day delivery timeframe), paid for the goods and nothing has arrived. Tried calling multiple times but the line says its closed during open hours. A week ago I sent a message via their ticketing system requesting a full refund, and still no response.”
