Royal Mail said the package was damaged…

Royal Mail said the package was damaged in transit and returned to the sender. Still waiting on a reply from A-kem.

Hi William,

I’m sorry for the delay and confusion caused by Royal Mail in this instance. I was advised by you that the parcel was damaged in transit and to be returned before delivery, which has not happened.

Despite having no response from Royal Mail at the time, I still sent a replacement out free of charge to ensure you were not left without your order. That is the standard I operate to, even when the issue lies with the courier rather than the business.

As a small independent company, I rely heavily on customer feedback, and a 1-star review for a Royal Mail handling issue does not accurately reflect the service provided by A-Kem. I always take responsibility for resolving problems, but I cannot prevent damage caused once a parcel leaves my premises.

I hope the replacement arrives safely and that you’re happy with the product itself.
