Thank you for your review. We apologise that your order wasn't with you last Friday. The delivery driver ran out of driving hours and unfortunately we weren't notified, otherwise we would have passed the information on as soon as we received it. We pride ourselves on keeping customers informed through every step of the process and so we're disappointed that we fell a little short of the mark this time. We believe you now have your equipment and if you need any further help or advice please get in touch.

Thank you for your feedback. As stated on our website and all acknowledgements and sales order emails which you received, commercial deliveries are to kerbside only. Delivery drivers will not bring units into the premises unless an unpack and position service has been paid for. This service is only available where premises have flat level access. This is a standard practice across the industry. FFD Customer Service.

“Didn't get the product”

Helpful Report

Posted 2 years ago

Thanks for your comment. The delivery company have attempted to make delivery on four occasions, however no-one has been at site to accept delivery. As this is a purchase in a commercial capacity, and as is stated on our website and on order confirmation emails, somebody must be at site to accept delivery as drivers will not leave packages unattended. We understand that a fifth delivery attempt has been made and you are now in receipt of your order. If you have any further queries about your order, please get in touch and we'd be happy to help.

“Before buying for this place double check because if u want to return or refund it they will refuse to take it back and also I'm still waiting from them to see why the wheels not locking”

Thank you for your feedback. In contrast to what you have said in your review, we do accept returns and issue refunds in certain situations, such as when equipment is delivered faulty and it cannot be repaired by the manufacturer. Unfortunately, as is clearly stated in multiple places on our website, user error during ordering is not accepted as grounds for return or refund. As is detailed on the product page, the unit you ordered has a hinged lid not sliding and the castors are non-lockable; this has been explained to you previously. We strongly urge all of our customers to check the specifications of the product they are buying prior to order to ensure that it is suitable for their needs. If customers have any queries, need further clarification on specifications or wish to check that the equipment is what they need before placing an online order, we encourage them to contact our sales team by phone, email, WhatsApp or live chat, who can then make sure that the intended product is a suitable choice for their needs. If you wish to discuss this further please contact our team who will happily explain our policies to you. The FFD Team

Thank you for your feedback. When you placed your order our team highlighted multiple times that due to the bank holiday all deliveries would be delayed by a day. This information was also present in a banner on our site. Your delivery was made on the day advised by our team and within the 2 hour time frame which we supplied to you. Our emails which invite our customers to leave a review is automated and therefore, as the system doesn't take into account bank holidays, you received your invitation the day prior to the delivery date that was advised by our team. Please be assured that all orders that are placed with FFD are fulfilled. Should you require further clarification or have any other questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the team and we would be happy to help.

Hi Jonathan, thanks for your feedback. We apologise for the issues that were present when you received delivery. We acted as soon as you notified us of these issues and all should now be rectified. If we can further assist with anything please let the team know and they'll be happy to help.

“ok up until the point that we had an issue - then absolutely terrible”

Helpful Report

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We have looked into your case and can see that an online order was placed with no interaction or assistance from our team. Unfortunately, you had ordered the wrong unit, a fridge instead of a freezer...frustrating but this does happen sometimes. When you contacted us, you informed our team that you had removed all packaging and protective film and had, in fact, used the equipment. As the item could not be resold as new, it would have to go into the graded section. Charges for returning your wrong order were set according to our terms and conditions. Our sales team did try to suggest an alternative course of action that would have potentially seen you recoup more of the costs however, as yet, we haven't heard anything from you regarding how you wish to proceed. We understand it's frustrating when a genuine mistake has been made however charges are set out in our terms and conditions and we are unable to waive the return costs. If you would like to discuss this further, please get in touch and we'll happily talk through the available courses of action.

“Very unprofessional after placing order they eamiled me out of stock . waste of time”

Helpful Report

Posted 4 years ago

Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We appreciate hearing from all of our customers. We apologise that your order wasn't available. Stock levels across the whole industry and indeed others, are extremely volatile at the moment due to a combination of factors. While we do our very best to keep our website updated with these stock changes we can sometimes miss the odd one of the circa 12,000 products we have on the site. We did email you as soon as we were notified that the product was out of stock and refunded your money immediately. Please get in touch if you wish to discuss this matter further. The FFD Team

“Fridge was so noisy that couldn’t be used in the home whatsoever, should have had a very strong advisory stating this, had to sell it myself at a big loss”

Helpful Report

Thank you for your feedback. As a supplier of commercial refrigeration we do state on our product pages that our bottle coolers are for commercial use and are not recommended for domestic use due to the higher power consumption and increased noise levels. If you would like to discuss this further please get in touch and we would be happy to listen to your concerns.

“We ordered a fridge yesterday under the promise that it would be delivered the next day. The time slot for delivery was 8am to 6pm. It is now 6.40pm, the fridge never came and nobody contacted us to tell us anything. And because it is friday we are now left with no fridge for the weekend and no means of communication with this company until Monday. We now have now lost out on all the refrigerated stock that was supposed to be kept and sold during the weekend. Disappointed is an understatement.”

Thank you for leaving feedback on your recent experience. We send our utmost apologises for the delivery issues you experienced. We endeavour to work with professional, reliable manufacturers to ensure that our customers receive the quality service that we pride ourselves on as a trusted supplier. Unfortunately, human error does occur, as is the case here. On this occasion, the manufacturer offered compensation and supplied a direct courier service to resolve the issue as speedily as possible. Once again, we apologise for your inconvenience. The FFD Team

“Why cant they give you a delivery slot am or pm, Carol never replies to my emails, just ignores them. Is this a way to run a company. We are all busy in life, run companies, giving an am or pm really is not that painful”

Our sincerest apologies for the lapse in communication, Carol has been off sick for a few days and correct email forwarding was not set up, I understand you've since been in contact with another member of staff who handled this query for you.

Thank you for your review. Please accept our apologies that your call was not responded to. Once we received your call on the Friday we did pass the information onto the manufacturers service department, requesting that they give you a call to go through setting the temperature. I have called them again this morning; requesting again that they call you.

“Ordered a quiet cooler, that model wasn't in stock bought a more expensive one that's smaller and noisy. No good for me now you want to charge me over £100 to take it back?”

Company's Reply Thank you for your review, we are sorry that you are finding the unit noisy. I have checked with the suppliers of the unit you have ordered and the original one that you looked at. The unit that you have has a rating of 45 decibel. The unit you were looking to order has a rating of 50 decibel. All commercial refrigeration on the bottle coolers have a similar rating as they have larger compressors than domestic units due to them being opened and closed on a more frequent basis. When in a bar environment this is not noticed due to the surrounding ambient noise. all of the suppliers charge a re-stocking fee and transport for returning units, as per the terms and conditions agreed to when the order was placed. Please do not hesitate to contact me direct should you need anything further. I have all of the information on your order should you wish to return the unit.

“Failed to deliver either of my 2 orders on time, when I called to ask where my delivery was I was told I would get a call back with an update. This never happened! Very poor customer service on this occasion.”

All our orders are direct from the manufactures and they deliver via their chosen delivery companies. All orders over £200.00 + VAT include Free Standard Delivery. Free Next Day Delivery is included on around half of our products, they show this with the Free Next Day Delivery logo. ALL Standard Deliveries have a lead time of 1 to 5 working days depending on the product selected. Our customer services will advise on an exact delivery date. The website does not state that a next day delivery service is available on the XW30 wine cooler. All deliveries on this unit are 2-3 days. With regards to the Empire unit they do deliver on a next day and I was given the information from them on the unit’s ETA. I can only apologise that the delivery company did not deliver to you on the day we were informed and, although we endeavour to get back to all inquiries; we are sorry that your call was not returned.

Thank you for your review. We received a call from you on 13/03/17 to notify us of the issues you were experiencing. The engineer attend the same day and the parts were delivered the following day. The engineer did attempt to contact you on Wednesday 15/03/17 to advise of the engineer re attending, with out success, so a voicemail message was left for you. As per our telephone conversation today ( Monday 20/03/17 ) the engineer is attending today to fit the part and have your unit up and running for you.

“Order took 4 days to process Once processed was given a 10 day delivery date and arranged for someone to be in all day to take delivery. At 11pm I received an email saying my delivery would be the next day ( a different day than they said) and that if nobody was in there would be a re delivery charge. Poor disorganised service. Have gone elsewhere ( Hopkins) for the other items I needed and got better service at same price.”

Thank you for your review. I have looked into your order and it was placed at 08.32 am and confirmed within an hour of the order being placed at 09.33 am. The delivery lead time for this unit is within 7-10 working days. We contacted you via email as the contact number entered on the online order was incorrect. The email was sent the day before the delivery 06/10/16 at 10.34am. We book all deliveries in the day before it is due. This was for delivery on the 5th working day 07/10/16. As in the terms and conditions accepted at the point of order and we remind customers when booking in that charges may apply if there is no-one there to accept the delivery. This is so these charges can be avoided as all commercial deliveries are between 8am and 6pm. You did request the delivery date to be changed but as this was on the day of delivery we could not facilitate this. The delivery was successfully made at 3.15pm on the 07/10/16. We apologise that having the delivery early was not to your satisfaction.
