“Shocking company ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 1961Strickland on 08/04/2024

DONT NOT BUY FROM THESE TWIRPS! these idiots sent me a bottle with a loose lid with 2/3 of the bottle gone, potentially the drink could of been tampered with, save your health and order from a more professional company ????‍♀️ these idiots don’t do customer service either it’s the customers fault…..

“Hideous Customer Service!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 28/02/2018

Ordered two bottles, one for myself and one for a present. The one intended as a gift to my surprise had a free glass in a boxset... On further inspection, the glass had smashed (presumably via their courier, wouldn't be surprised if it was broken before it was wrapped though to be fair). Small shards of glass fell onto my bedding and rug where my two year old plays, I contacted them, with pictures, yet their customer 'service' could only "offer their utmost apologies". Now I don't care about losing a glass that I never intended to buy, what I DO care about is the sheer disregard for their customers, delivering a DANGEROUS item that I was unaware of. Imagine if I had given that present without checking and my friend had cut themselves on it, I would be mortified and do more than just offer my utmost apologies. DISGUSTING, VILE, INCONCEIVABLY HEARTLESS AMATEUR BUSINESS! Stay well away. They do not deserve your money!

Interesting... I found I was charged close to £40 yesterday by these guys, yet I've never heard of the business until now. I've had my card cancelled and reported this company to my bank's fraud team. Sounds like they've taken this, as their new business model :(

UPDATE!

I managed to call through, and the kind lady had already noticed the transaction as there were a series of orders placed at the same time to be delivered to the same person, yet each order had a different billing address.

I had a pleasant experience calling and speaking to them. I haven't placed an order with them, so I can't comment on what that aspect of the business is like.

“Just not good enough”

★☆☆☆☆

written by aaronhowe on 04/08/2017

Ordered some cocktails for a party as I had been given a promo code to use, everything showing in stock on the website but then I get a call an HOUR after it was supposed to have been despatched to say they "discovered" they don't have stock. Even today the stock shows as being there on their website - absolutely shoddy, no way I'd use these people if I had an urgent or specific need.

written by kateg1983 on 16/03/2017

I had a question about an item i was considering so I contacted the team. Their response was rude and abrust and I was told to 'Google it yourself' when I informed them i thought it was a little rude I was told I was speaking to a manager. I will never use them again after this. Disgusting.

“Awful. Go elsewhere!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by GuadalupeAllen on 29/12/2015

Having ordered two bottles on December 19th to be delivered before Christmas for presents, and paying extra for the 'guaranteed delivery', I received an email on December 23rd saying that due to the volume of orders, that I would receive my bottles on Christmas Eve by Royal Mail 24hr delivery. I didn't. I received an email on the 28th saying that I was going to get a full refund within 5 days. No apology or explanation. Had they told me that they were too busy to fulfil orders, I would have gone elsewhere. Truly appalling customer service. I would not recommend, nor use again.

“Terrible service. Do not use this company ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by vidaaleks on 22/12/2015

Placed my order on the 11th dec. stated delivery 3-5 days yet nothing has been delivered. Customer service person replied saying is out for delivery a week later and goods shall be delivered today 22nd. Guess what? No goods! I'm not surprised by the reviews I've seen. Please don't be tricked and don't use this company. I Really hope that my refund I requested will be done asap so I can just go to asda and by it myself.

“Wrong product delivered”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 27/02/2015

Ordered a crate of Nigerian Guinness foreign extra and Dublin Guinness foreign extra was delivered in error. I sent a photo showing the product they had sent me which was 5 pounds cheaper per crate. They sent me an email back saying I was wrong and that it was the new label for the nigerian version. I phoned up and explained and eventually they agreed to refund me the difference. However since then I have had no reply by email and no refund has been made. Avoid this company.

“BEWARE!!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by MRMHAY on 10/10/2014

Received special offer email showing some decent savings to drag you in.. ordered Whisky and took payment only to be mailed following day saying not available and offering non discount/uplifted price alternative...... This is a ploy to get customers suckered in through promotion of stock not acually available then expect to swap for full price alternative after payment taken...!!! otherwise upto 10day to refund.. do NOT order from them....!!! you have been warned...BEWARE!!!!

“Cheap whiskey in an expensive bottle”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 25/01/2014

Recently order from these for a birthday present before xmas. The product arrived and looked as expected (I have had the same whiskey before). However, after giving the gift and opening the bottle the whiskey (bruichladdich black art) it was clear that it was a cheaper whiskey in the bottle. Having tried the brand a number of times before I reported the problem to customer services who refused to take it further as the bottle had been opened and refused to tell me whether a negative review would be removed from the site on purpose. All I was told was to talk to the distillery who have never caused me problems before and who I have ordered from previously and had it not been for the discount in the price I would have done so again. If you wish to guarantee what you are getting please go elsewhere as both the product and the service has not been up to standard. Next time I will pay more and order directly.

“Dire customer service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 14/12/2013

Ordered 350 miniatures for a charity event as table gifts on next day delivery. Order place Monday night at 00.45am so I would expect delivery Wednesday paid 19.00 for this service. Rand Wednesday to find out where it was after taking the day off to be told they hadn't processed it. I said ok but I must have it on Friday, I'm not at home Thursday. It turns up Thirsday afternoon!!! Hopeless and refusing to pay back delivery charges when they certainly didn't fulfill the requirements. Steer clear plenty of others to choose from!!!

I use these guys all the time, never had an issue. I suppose with ALL businesses there are glitches once in a while. To my experience this company has provided me with excellent service over and over again. Unfortunately for you, you had an issue. Tough, It happens. Get over it. Don't dismiss a business and write malicious things about it for one minor issue. Drinksupermarket all the way for me. My days of lugging home chunky litre bottles of JD and Tequila are finally over, home delivery all the way! Keep up the good work Mr and Mrs Drinksupermarket.

“AVOID - Sold out Stock on Sale and no Customer Support”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 04/12/2013

I tried to buy a Jeroboam of Lanson Champagne. Went through the process of inputting all my details and tried to pay and it failed. I received an order reference number and put a request in for advice no response! I then followed up with an email and no reply. The item I tried to buy has been marked as out of stock now and I have still had no reply. Save your money and if you have to pay more it's worth the few pounds to avoid the bother and worry. Still waiting for a reply and still don't know if I will be charged or not or if my item will arrive.

Thank you for your reply.

I final received a reply and was contacted by a member of your customer services team a few days after the order was placed and the email was sent. The emails I received had little information within them and no clear direction that would assist to resolve the problem. They didn’t look very professional and didn’t seem to tie in with the look and feel of your website. This made me feel very uneasy. Eventually I was advised the order had been placed on hold as the payment had failed. The failed payment wasn't an issue on my part.

I confirmed I would like to continue with the order ASAP as it was for an occasion. I was told I would be sent a payment gateway link. This link was not sent for a further 48 hours. The order was needed that weekend, due to all the slow reply times and lack of process and advice on how best to resolve the issue the process took far too long.

Sadly in this instance I felt let down by your company, poor customer service processes with a clear lack of urgency towards resolving customers problems.

Thank you

“Great and Enjoyable as well as safe arrival”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 18/09/2013

I am really pleased with the service and will always use your order service. The box arrived on time and in excellent condition. the bottles were packed really well to ensure no breakage. I received the web site from my sister and will not pass it on to my friends and relations. The stock you offer is extensive which is an added bonus. They are also very well priced, No more walking around the aisles at the supermarket looking for good quality products. Thank you drinks Supermarket. I cannot think of anything I disliked about the service and products.

“Fake bottle of rum delivered”

★☆☆☆☆

written by JCom on 28/08/2013

I ordered a bottle of Royal Oak rum. It appears to be a fake. The label and embossment on the bottle are of poor quality and the revenue tax stamp does not look the same as the ones on spirits bought in a supermarket.In addition, the bottle size, 70cl, is indicated by a sticker that has been put over whatever the label originally says (I know in Trinidad the rum is sold in 75cl quantities). I recommend not shopping here.

“Don't use!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Fionnualagriffiths on 28/08/2013

My sister ordered a magnum of champagne as a shared gift for my daughter and myself for our very special birthdays. She paid extra for speedy delivery and 6 days after promised delivery date it has not arrived. We suspect it is because we live in Northern Ireland and they do not want to deliver to us and if we had known that initially we would have used a different firm. Very very upsetting and dreadful customer service.

Thank you for your feedback, this is appreciated.

Following on from our email communication. Your order was unfortunately lost in the post. Please do accept our apologies from ourselves and on behalf of Parcelforce with regards to this matter. This is unfortunately something that is out of our control.

As advised, we will be happy to offer you one of the following options. First would be to resend the goods to you as soon as possible, and the second would be offer you a full refund of your order.

For either option, please do contact our customers services department via email, or call our offices.

We look forward to hearing from you with ever option you may choose

Kind regards

No, that is not true the parcel was NOT lost by Parcelforce, it was never in their possession. They scan all items onto their vehicles, and even on the rare coccasions that they lose products, there is still some tracking information available. Tthis is clearly not their fault so stop passing the buck. I can only assume that you don't like Amazon's policy of not allowing you to charge extra for deliveries to Northern Ilreland and so decided instead to 'lose' it.

The order (a magnum of Vintage Champagne) was for a special occasion which has now passed, so thank you for spoiling it A refund is the bare minimum you can offer - you should be apologising to my sister and send her something in retribution free of charge - but somehow i doubt you will do that.

“Order let down”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Neiloboy on 20/08/2013

I searched the Internet to find a company that had Russian Standard Gold Vodka specifically with a presentation box. The photos online showed the box and described it in the details of the advert. So I purchased 5 of them as we use them to thank clients for their first order. The price was £3 more a bottle that what I usually pay but I didn't mind as my usual supplier had no stock left. When the order arrived they were supplied as bottles only - I felt completely miss-sold, but I don't have time to mess about with returns etc so I just kept them. Very unhappy customer !

“Not at all good”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 18/07/2013

I made an order over three weeks ago, as a gift to a friend. The order was delivered over 7 days later, smashed to bits. I told then to re send the order in which they did (again took another 7 days). My friend received it just fine but it was in an unlabelled box and there was no form of identification on it, so he didnt realise this was for him.
