As a boutique hotel we ordered a hotel room fridge for our in room facilities. The fridge arrived promptly but does not seem to refrigerate below 16C. There os no obvious way of contacting Host from the website other than creating a support ticket, which we did. No reply.
Strangely we then receive a request for Trustpilot reviews from Host with a message telling me how important customer service and excellence is. Host, here is my feedback: Allow people to interact with you when there are problems and solve them, then we will go to a 5 star review....

Hi Annette - I'm so sorry for the issues that you had with the performance of your Hotel Room Fridge, and that it took longer than we'd like for you to be contacted after submitting a support ticket.

I understand that your fridge was brought in to be repaired under your warranty, but that now a replacement has been sent out to you.

I do hope that you are now satisified with the overall service that you've received from Host - and that the new fridge works well for your guests.

We do ask for all warranty issues to be submitted via the web form as it gets the query to the correct team - you can also get in touch with us on site via webchat or can call our customer services number.

Thank you for buying from Host - we hope we will be able to help with any future purchases. If you do have any further issues, please don't hesitate to get in touch directly.

Very poor service regarding delivery…

Very poor service regarding delivery had to pay £50 after first delivery attempt failed. Their chosen courier used at artic lorry in a residential area and that became our problem! Knowing people who work in logistics they advised that the choice of vehicle is between the seller and the logistics company not the end customer. No detail given that an attic lorry would be used as clearly we would have advised against that, as would many a resident not living on a main road! Wont acknowledge the issue and seems a way to make more income. Do not recommend.

Hi Becky,

We are sorry to hear that you weren't happy with your delivery experience. As you have noticed, we offer free delivery on all standard orders, and we are able to do so because of things like a re-delivery fee on an unsuccessful first delivery.

We understand this has been very frustrating for you, and we have escalated your case to the service provider.

Hope you enjoy your purchase!

Very impressed.

Ordered HOST0683CM on the Saturday and it arrived Tuesday lunchtime. Very impressed. It was well packaged for the journey.
The Ice Cream maker is of top quality and a lot cheaper than the closest competitor.
I love the shape as it has a lot smaller footprint than other brands and takes up less space on the worktop.
