“Ordered an item from them which was quickly delivered but faulty. Emailed the sales team twice including pictures of the damaged item and go no response. Won’t be using BES again and will advise my team to do the same. As poor a customer service as you can get.”

Hi Jack Cunnington, Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry that the courier did not deliver successfully on the Saturday specified. Thankfully this is very rare. Please note that we take customer service very seriously, reflected in our overall 4.7/5 rating and so we will raise with our couriers (DPD as you state) at our next service level meeting. Sincere apologies. BES

Hi Leonard Gumbs, Apologies about the confusion but rest assured you will NOT lose out re full calibration/shelf life etc. Please see below. We hope that reassures you and clarifies the position. Regards, BES "Testo appreciate when BES buy their analysers that they may not be resold immediately, therefore some shelf life is required when it comes to calibration. When it is time to calibrate your analyser, you will need to include a copy of your BES invoice which will show the date of your purchase. Testo will then calibrate for 12 months but only charge you for 9 months (or reimburse you for the 3 months if you pay in full via their website). It is no trouble to provide a copy of your invoice at any point should you not be able to find it when this time comes."

“Ordered a crimper on Thursday for Saturday delivery, needed it for a Sunday-tuesday install. It didn't arrive, rang up Sunday morning, they could see the order but had no clue what happend. They said it'll probably arrive Monday but to ring back on Monday morning. This halted a very time sensitive job. Rang up Monday, staff very apologetic, they said their not sure what went on, and are sending it out for a pre 10am delivery Tuesday, I waited In for it. It didn't arrive on Tuesday either.... Arrived Wednesday instead. Staff were very apologetic and professional on the phone, nothing against them, but this will be the first and last order with BES. Not that it makes much of a difference but the press tool sent was a different make than the one I ordered on the website to. Zupper rather than alpha press but they seem pretty similar.”

Hi Ashley Thursfield, we are very sorry to hear that our courier has let us both down on this occasion (thankfully a rare occurrence) and we can only apologise profusely. Note: we have regular meetings with our couriers and delivery metrics/performance are always reviewed, so we thank you for highlighting your experience. On a more positive note we do hope you enjoy using your press-fit tool. It is an excellent product. We note that you ordered a Z-Press (Zupper) part number 25348 and an extra jaw 26951 – Alpha Press 35mm M profile jaw (these fit the Z-Press machines as well as the Alpha-Press) -so we actually delivered exactly as per the order you placed. Apologies once again re. your delayed delivery. BES

“I placed an order based on the information provided on your website, which clearly stated that the disabled toilet I urgently required was available for next-day delivery. During checkout, I was even able to select a delivery date, which confirmed this expectation. I had planned the installation around this schedule, as it was needed urgently before an important assessment. However, on the expected delivery day, after waiting the entire day, I contacted your customer service team around 6 p.m., only to be informed that the delivery time is actually around 14 days. This is extremely disappointing and misleading, as the website was not updated to reflect the true delivery timeframe. I relied on the information provided and made my purchase accordingly.”

Hi Sharmali Sivakanesan, thank you for your feedback. Whilst we state on the product web page '7-14 days UK delivery' for direct deliveries it seems our delivery calendar offered 'next day' in error this for your order. Sincere apologies for the confusion. Our web team are investigating and will remedy for future orders. Thank you for bringing to our attention. Regards, BES

“I have used BES on many occasions they have never let me down. However this is the first time I have had a delivery from DX as it was a larger item. They delivered it late afternoon and a day late which caused me all sorts of problems with my job and I had to work on Saturday to resolve the issue. Not BES's fault and their customer service dealing with this was great but DX let you down this time.”

“I've ordered and payed for 38 valves but I only received 24 valves and no explanation. Order #1002831957 On the invoice I received, there are no materials I purchased listed, nor their prices – only the total amount paid. This makes accounting for the purchases very difficult. Invoice 3075611”

Hi Marek Rosowski, thank you for your feedback, although it is not what BES wish to read. Sincere apologies as your experience falls well short of our normal excellent service (overall 4.7/5 stars) We have investigated your delivery which is a despatch outside of mainland UK. As you state only 24 valves out of 38 were initially delivered within our specified time scale. Unfortunately at the time of your order we were out of stock re. balance of 14no. (very rare). Your despatched back order delivery has subsequently been stuck at DPD (also very rare) with a number of failed attempts to deliver. To ensure that this delay is resolved quickly one of our team is working closely with DPD, so that you get your follow up package. Once again we are very sorry about this but thankfully instances like this do not happen very often. Regards, BES

Update#2 apologies Mr Rosowski. As per your conversation with one of the BES team, customs have now released your second package. We are following up the reason for the customs delay from our side, to prevent this happening again. The hold by customs is very unusual, as the first part of your order arrived without delay. Apologies once again. BES

“Placed an order on a Saturday morning and paid over £15 to have delivered before 10:30 Monday. Items arrived at 17:20, waste of money paying for delivery before 10:30. Had an engineer on site that was unable to complete the job and had to return the next day.”

“I payed for per 10am delivery, the item didn’t turn up. I rang the office to be told I will be with me by 12.30 so I got two of my guys to drive to the job to be told at 2oclock the brackets would not be delvered that day by quite a rude person on the phone. This issue has cost me £500. I wanted to make an official complaint and was told I would be rang back by a manager and still have not had a call.”

“Purchased an analyser for next day delivery for it not to come the next day . Then when I rang BES up I simply asked when I would receive my analyser they told me it would 2 days later which was a problem when you start to book jobs in . Obviously it didn’t arrive to days later and I rang again to only told my analyser would be in 3 weeks time due to stock allocations. None of the above was mentioned on the website or on the second phone call. So if you need a analyser sharpish to keep your work loads sorted i would go elsewhere it’s cost me money and a whole bunch of headache of angry customers”
