What disappointed customers?

1. Delivery issues

"The delivery came could not take it off truck came back next day didn’t let us know till appeared at front door took order off and left in lane previous delivery brought it on to drive" – Trustpilot

"Delivery arrived on the wrong pallet so had to man handle the logs in from the pavement." – Trustpilot

2. Communication issues when something goes wrong

"Ordered from them for the first time, was sent a 10% discount code which didn't work, and when I phoned to query, I was told I should have phoned before I placed my order!!!.

They had no intention of apologising for their misleading wording, and furthermore didn't offer to refund me 10% as a goodwill gesture for a new customer.

Not impressed, and won't be using them again.(obviously I wrote my review before I received an apology and £10 credit, - but I did have to argue for it!!)" – Trustpilot

"I would like to give 5 stars as I have over the last three years and several orders later but the experience with the new Internet platform was far from satisfactory.

Had to make several phone calls to change my password. Ordering used to be one click away, this time three phone calls later ended up placing the order on the phone,

I don't call that progress. In addition absolutely no tracking information in spite of downloading the suggested app.

Absolutely nothing wrong with the product just need to improve IT." – Trustpilot

Atypical / unusual review

"Went to the Calido yard and were shown logs that we wanted. were given 2 net bags of logs to take home.

WeThis web site will not let me wriite what I want without putting in complete nonsense – Trustpilot
