I purchased a fountain in December 2020. It was in stock. I contacted them in January and was told it would be 10-12 weeks from the date of my order.
To date, I have not received (nearly 16 weeks later).
The item is now more expensive at other websites, and they still have my full payment.
I confirmed on numerous occasions i would get my item.
Customer service is appalling
Terrible, in fact WORSE than terrible. Customer service is shockingly bad, no communication despite repeated attempts for updates on our orders. And it wasn't a one off as my wife and I tried 3 different orders (thinking we just had an unlucky experience the first time) but each time the experience was beyond woeful. Our last order we're still waiting for 3 months on and Primrose's Customer Service team have failed to respond to 5 attempts to get an update. Refunds are hilarious - they refunded part of our first order 2 months after placing it with a made up number! Feels like this is a joke of a company who are happy to take your money and then do nothing, just sit on your cash for months. Truly shocking bad service in this day and age. As online retailers ourselves there is no way we'd still be in business if we traded the way Primrose does. And using Covid as an excuse for terrible service, failed deliveries and no comms is just not acceptable. Avoid Primrose at all costs.

Table and chairs were delivered relatively quickly and no major issues. Upon assembly I found that the glass on the table had two deep scratches in it, approximately 2cm and 1cm in length, which I reported straight away online! Now this is the reason for the rating, I still haven't heard anything from Primrose to try and sort out the issue, with either a replacemwnt top. So considering the price paid, I would have expected the customer service to be far better than it is and at least acknowledge the problem.
So far received. 2 pkts of seeds. They arrived 2 days after ordering. Already planted. Can't wait for them to grow. Still waiting on rosemary plants. They did say 5-10days.should be within next 2 days. Looking forward to receiving and planting them. Would highly recommend. Primrose. Fantastic value for money.
Took my money, didn't send goods, had to chase them, told to wait 5 days for a reply. Have up to be told they didn't have the items after all and lost nearly 2 weeks waiting off the planting season. Offered money back & apology that they failed to let me know. Not good practise if you want to maintain a good reputation.
This is a shame of a company, lie take your money but don't send out goods
I find their reviews on their own website hard to believe as other independent review sites have submitted very similar experience like I had. No hope of getting to speak with anyone dismal customer service, lie about orders and a nightmare to get a refund or goods
I didn't get mine had to resort to daily emails to get money back
Cannot stress how much to avoid. Companies like not fit to be operating, taking peoples money and completely disrespectful & disregard customers
Won't be ordering again from this company. Placed a order for 3 plants. When I received them one of the plants were missing only to be told 3 weeks later I wouldn't be receiving it. Also one of the plants I did received were damaged. Sent 2 emails and got no response. Communication and product quality was rubbish for the expensive prices paid
Ordered a tree for my sisters birthday 14th April 2021. Didn't arrive. DX couriers had no knowledge of my order. Asked for a refund two weeks ago and promised 2-8 working days to hit bank account. 19th May was 8th day and today 20th still no refund. They eventually respond to some emails but don't answer the phone. So if you want to lose money go ahead and try to place an order.
Unfortunately from an order of 6 items, I have received two (absolutely fine, no problems here), two have disappointingly been cancelled, and two have disappeared without a trace. The plants that have arrived are lovely but unfortunately because of the other problems I would be unlikely to recommend Primrose or use their website again.
Ordering was nice and easy, lovely lady on the phone. Tried to call to see where my order was and was greeted by a not so nice lady on the phone. My purchase was a birthday present and was unsuitable so emailed and called to return, I was greeted my another rude customer service man. I finally got a return number and address and I’m awaiting my refund.
