“Absolutely appalling service. Ordered & charged for next day delivery. 16 days after order I received a package - contained only part of my order - unfortunately missing the major & most expensive component (£140's worth missing). Package part undone. Bizarrely I received someone else's order in addition to my part order - bit of their order is missing. If you-re missing a whole load of canopy hooks & cleats somewhere in Aylesbury, then I'm your gal. Perhaps you have my 3m stainless steel pole with eyebolts? Held 22 mins on phone, emailed, held another 20 mins. on phone today. Wondering if Primrose is a bit like the Marie Celeste - just about floating, but clearly totally unmanned. Really fed up & disappointed - & going on reviews, I'm not the only one! My advice? Order from someone else. Peeved I even had to give one star.”

“Avoid - avoid - avoid Worst company ever! Please stay clear. Ordered a garden furniture set for £400, arrived faulty. Promised to send a replacement. Sent the wrong parts and won’t accept a return of goods and won’t refund. Only solution is we will send the right parts this time. Unacceptable”

“Placed order 2nd April. Over a month later and having made 4 attempts to contact them and rearrange deliver it has still not turned up. An online business that can’t deliver items is a company going out of business soon”

“I ordered 2 buxus trees 3 weeks ago and have had no delivery. They do not answer their phone and the item does not appear when I put the tracking number in! I have since read reviews on this company and they are appalling! Certainly wish I had never ordered-will bd trying to get my money back! DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!”

“bought over £3k worth of plants which said would be in stock 27th April, then 1st may then saying 1st July. Customer service is utter garbage, dont answer their phone, dont respond to emails. The guy on the trade line 01189035242 said there is nothing he can do and put the phone down on me, said because its sunny all staff are busy doing other things and couldnt transfer phone call as it was monday morning! if things go wrong be prepared to have a long and arduous battle will never buy from them again”

“Awful company! Shocking customer service. Ordered item nearly two weeks ago and despite several assurances I have STILL not received the item. Impossible to speak to someone as they don't answer emails and don't answer the phone either! Been on hold for a total of 127 minutes today on and off all day and STILL not got to speak to anyone! Avoid this company like the plague!”

“VERY POOR SERVICE. I ordered a passion flower that was in stock. Web site said it would take 7-14 days to deliver. After the 14 days i had no message to say the order was delayed. No one answering the phone. Luckily i ordered through PayPal and have cancelled the order, and still no reply.”

“I placed an order for pond plants and water snails with Primrose.Arrived quickly. However, some of the snail shells seemed to be empty. Rang and was on the phone 20mins before they answered. I explained the position and was asked for order number which I couldn't find at the moment. She gave the impressions that it was all too much trouble.I said surely she could find my order through my post code.Finally went off and left on phone for another 5 mins.On her return she said she had been told that there should be something in the shell and wait 3 days. I am not convinced as the empty shells were a different colour from the live snails. Didn't care for their attitude.”

“Ordered fruit bushes, states 3 to 5 working day delivery on website. Took over a week for despatch and then not delivered for 8 days after that. Plants looking worst for wear and not sure they will survive. Very disappointed.”

“This truly has been the most awful online experience I have ever had. Placed order in good faith and have been chasing it ever since. The website is misleading with stock levels and timescales. Trying to get a refund processed is a challenge. No one will return your calls and an email I sent remains unanswered 2 weeks later. I will never ever use this company again”

“This company accepted my order, took money from my credit card, didn’t deliver my order and have not responded to my emails. The order number I have is showing on their system as something completely different to what I ordered! Beware of this company! I am still awaiting a response and a refund 😡”
