APPALLING CUSTOMER SERVICE. The pair of citrus trees I bought arrived damaged and in very poor condition. I immediately rang the customer service centre and was told I would get a full refund and my return postage refunded if I emailed photos to their head office team, which I did. However I was offered either to keep them with a 50% refund, or return them at my expense. I tried to telephone the person who emailed me to discuss the issue but the number she gave me was the general call centre and they told me they could not give me a telephone number for her (not what I call good customer service) so we could only communicate by email. The direct selling laws state that a customer does not have to pay to return faulty/damaged goods but pointing this out made no difference. The cost of returning them was prohibitive and so I am left with 2 substandard trees. I will not be shopping there again.Product:
too early to tell
GardenBargains Comments
Thank you for your feedback.
I can confirm that the photographs we received showed two trees in good health with minor damage; my colleague therefore offered a 50% refund, which we felt was appropriate in this instance.

Most complaints are dealt with fairly promptly but my mini rose won't be available till October.Product:
I had received the wrong ones but when I told them they were replaced. Hopefully it is the right one. No flower but good plants
GardenBargains Comments
We are really sorry about the availability of your Mini rose. Sadly, this is because the bare root season does not start until October. Please know that we will ensure a replacement is sent out to you at this time.
