“Terrible company. Paid for next day delivery. Called twice, each time I was assured that they made a mistake and it would dispatch that day. A week later and I still haven’t received the item. Customer service staff are entirely incompetent. How hard is it dispatch my order?!”

Hi Alex, Sincere apologies as we have not met our usual high standards on this occasion. We made an error (new starter) with your initial order. We recognised the error and immediately dispatched an express delivery (FOC) as a replacement to make amends. Unfortunately you were not in to receive the order 'next day' and so your package was taken to your closest UPS 'collection point'. Of course re. initial error, we will be addressing our staff training to ensure we meet our usual high standard of service. Once again we apologise for the inconvenience. Regards, BES

“I ordered from here and was told I would revieve my order in 3-5 working days. I didnt recieve it so I called them and they said there was a problem with the packaging but they would send it in the next 3 working days. again I did not recieve it so I called again and was told they would get back to me which they didnt. I then called to cancel my order and ask for a full refund and they told me they will get back to me to discuss further without cancelling the order. Yet again no call so I had to call again and was told my order had been cancelled yet no money had been refunded. I said if they cancel my order I then need a full refund and I was told I would get it in 5 working days. waste of time, shop elsewhere.”

Hi, Thank you for your feedback. As per your conversation with a member of our team we are unable to accept the return of 'used' products, as per our terms and conditions. Also for this product our web description clearly states "NOT suitable for standard half hard copper pipe" Apologies. BES

Sincere apologies Malcolm. Sadly one of your items was out of stock due to a supplier lead time delivery delay and the Christmas holiday period. Thankfully this is very unusual but of course inconveniences you. We are very sorry about this delay. We are awaiting an update from this particular supplier. Apologies. BES

“Absolutely horrendous, I ordered via PayPal, it auto populated my previous address, my mistake I didn’t check. However, I called to simply change the address and got the most confrontational computer says no staff member I’ve ever spoken to in my life, couldn’t change the address and said it was cancelled. A few hours go by no refund or confirmation of cancelling, so I call back to chase it as I need the stuff/re-order and she got irate at the fact I’d rang back in to chase my refund and cancellation confirmation? The tone of voice and the way a simple matter was dealt with I’m just lost for words worst customer experience I’ve had, I genuinely thought it was a prank at one point! I still have no confirmation now. I’m well aware it was my mistake, but there’s a way of dealing with issues and customers and trying to argue over a simple matter isn’t it.”

Hi, Thank you for your feedback although it is very disappointing to read. BES set very high standards and we have fallen short on this occasion. We are very sorry that a relatively simple admin error then impacted your overall experience with BES. Please note a confirmation email will follow to support the verbal cancellation. Apologies once again. BES

“Placed an order with various items, came with parts missing (told it was a picking issue) 1 item missing from the order, informed that I had cancelled it (why would i cancel my own order) - it had been done internally and told it would need to be re-ordered. Re-ordered it and paid, now been told it has been cancelled again and is no longer available, we had not been informed or refunded despite it being cancelled 10 days ago. No reason given by customer services or the smarmy manager.”

Dear Jeremy, Thank you for making contact with BES, however, we are confused by your feedback. Upon investigation we note that your order was placed on the 26th and Royal Mail have provided us with a photo POD showing that your goods were delivered successfully on 27th. Please contact BES customer services if you still believe you have not received your goods. Regards, BES

“The delivery service UPS which BES uses is the worse postage service and in past several times I received delivery after 3 or 4 days not next day. The main reason I was using BES was because of the next day delivery which UPS can't provide it. I use to order regularly from BES , its all OK and still I do order but not as much as before .”

Thank you for your feedback. Our service levels are monitored with UPS and they remain very high. However, occasionally UPS do not deliver 'next day'. We are very sorry if you have experienced a slight delay. Regards, BES

“How is this product advertised at £783 on Facebook and on you own website at £653?”

Helpful Report

Posted 3 years ago

Thank you for your feedback. It is very difficult to ascertain exactly what you are referring to with the limited info. provided. However, the difference between the two prices you state is VAT, which is 20%. Facebook includes VAT whereas the BES website states 'with' or 'without VAT' dependent on what setting you have chosen ( see the top right toggle switch displayed in the corner of your screen) We hope this helps.
