The tree was totally dead, I called to speak to someone. No one picked up the phone or returned the messages!

Awful service - DO NOT USE. Tree was delivered late, hurled through the front door by a grumpy delivery driver. Decorations were broken and lights not included. Offered a £9 refund! Decorations must cost about £30 to source from Asia and charge over £380!!! Actually the worst value for money experience we have ever encountered.

This was the worst tree I have ever had. Despite following instructions it started dropping before Xmas. I have just removed it and spent 2 hours clearing up needles inside. Outside is a mess but I am 72 and just don’t have the energy. I have never in 43 years taken my tree down before 12th night. I will now have to pay someone to clear up outside as well as paying you to take it away. That’s rubbish

The people who collected our tree took the wrong one. They just grabbed the first one they saw without asking. This tree did not belonged to us and the owners are furious!

We have been getting trees from you for ten years, or thereabouts but last two years have really not been good. I have already (via my husband Matthew) sent you an email telling you that the tree this year however, beautiful was virtually dead upon arrival but haven't heard anything back. On top of this last year wasn't very good either. I was hoping then that that was a one off, so I never complained but now it seems to be a pattern. Susanne Levin / Matthew Bell

Worst experience ever. I always get my trees from pines and needles brockwell pk, but moved to Wallington this year so ordered a fraser fir online that cost me £104 with delivery. When it arrived I cried, it was the ugliest tree I have ever seen, all misshapen, unequal, broken, and sticky with sap. I then struggled to get through to their services to resolve, so many calls/emails, had hassle over getting a full refund and had to chase them repeatedly to collect the tree as they expected me to just keep it in my front garden and dispose of it in the new year. Never again, I found a lovely local nursery and got the most beautiful 7ft Nordman fir for £55.

Last year they were great. The two men that delivered the tree were festive and dressed in kilts. This year the two men were grumpy, not very friendly and did not set the tree up in a stable way. After they left I went to move the tree over a bit and it was lopsided and fell on our tv and broke the screen. We had to replace our tv plus the actual looked like it was already dying. Very dry and browning even though I put water in the bottom stand straight away. Very disappointed this year and I will be using them next year.

I waited all day. Delivery was late (past 10:15pm) and when they arrived they had the wrong tree. I had to reschedule delivery for another day and wait again. There was only one guy without a kilt and the tree did not have a net over it so the needles fell everywhere and I had to spend the next day cleaning all of it. I will not use them again or recommend them to anyone.

The tree was just awful, in a terrible state, perhaps that’s why it was reduced but would have been good to be told that it was mishapen.

For its size this Christmas tree with delivery was very expensive but we wanted the convenience of having it this year and our normal supplier wasn’t delivering. It was squat and thin with an awful shape to it and despite daily watering it started to drop very quickly

The tree died after 1 week and was thrown away before Christmas sadly. Disappointed to say the least :(

Despite watering the tree regularly, it started withering after 5/6 days. I had to dispose of it on the 25th. Very bad experience.

I paid extra for a delivery by 1230 on Friday December 17. By 1340 I had no notification that no tree was coming, despite having my family gathered for decorating. Upon calling the company, I was informed the tree had gone to the wrong depot and wouldn’t be delivered until Monday. When it did arrive, it was dry and the bottom scarred over with sap—left by the door by the courier and not even delivered in as promised. Despite speaking with two customer service people no one even offered to refund the delivery fee—a service I paid for and didn’t get.

I ordered a tree, order #438240. I called, and no one picked up. My wife emailed, no one responded. We received a sparse, balding tree that was shedding its pine needles extremely quickly. It’s impossible to decorate because of the pine needle loss, the smell is of an old tree, and all around it’s the worst Christmas tree we’ve ever had. It’s been a real disappointment to the kids. I originally wanted to rectify it with the company but now that I’ve had no response I advise you not waste your time with this company. I will have to buy another one.

Pines & needles got my order wrong, delivering a tree which was larger than ordered. So much so that the tree took over the whole room and couldn’t be used. Notwithstanding that the error was on their side, upon re-delivering the correct sized tree they refused to pick up the original tree, leaving me with the issue of disposing of a 10ft tree. Customer service experience poor. Won’t be using them again.

Tree was delivered broken. Not in transit… they had reattached the top with bamboo and cable ties! and no ability to discuss this with this company as mail box full. I used them in the past for my business with no issue. But this experience has been appalling. No more business from me, but based on the above they don’t care less

I ordered a 5-foot potted tree, what was delivered is less than 4 feet and so crooked it's nearly sideways. It can't even stand up on its own, it needs to lean against a wall. It's quite pathetic. I can't believe I was charged 80 GBP for this. Even worse is the customer service. Although a guarantee of satisfaction is promised, I have been trying to get in touch with them for four days via email and phone, with absolutely no response. I feel cheated and don't think I'll ever order a tree for delivery again.

Very poor quality tree. Worst I have ever bought with discolouration and needles falling off if you so much as touch a branch. I wish I had asked the name of the person who served me as so many of the 5 star reviewers below know the names of the people who work there.
