The order placed was delivered promptly and the plants were all securely packaged in their own pods which prevented damage during transit. Each plant was a healthy specimen with good roots so quite im... See more

Plant quality better than expected

Plant arrived healthy, well packed, and much larger than I expected. It has settled in well and seems to be growing away. The only thing I would have liked is an email saying when the plant had been dispatched, but that is a very minor point considering how excellent in terms of value for money this plant was. I’d rather be thrilled by the plant quality than have them spend more time on admin! So it really is a minor point.

Poor customer service

Failed to confirm delivery. Did not respond when asked if I should expect the delivery on the planned date. 1 of 5 root ball trees was delivered separated from its root ball. Have not responded (in a week) to complaint about that.
==
Unfortunately, things got rather worse since then: not one of the 5 trees has survived: produced little green leaves which shrivelled and turned brown. This despite being in a line with other hawthorn saplings from last year which are doing fine, all with drip line irrigation. So £250 for 5 twigs!

Placed order but almost a week later…

Placed order but almost a week later before I was advised that it would take almost a month in total took place and deliver order. Cancel the order as a result and was assured that it would not arrive on the expected day but it did and had to be returned and had to call again to ensure a refund was forthcoming.
Error was confirmed to be on their part and always result in the end

Good products, poor delivery.

Good products, but had a poor experience with the delivery service. If couriers behave like they don’t care, which happened with two couriers in this instance, then it reflects very badly on the company whose products they are delivering.

Hi there,

We are very grateful and pleased you are happy with your order although we are very sorry to hear that the delivery service was not of a high standard. We certainly do not accept or expect this from our couriers and like you say, it reflects badly upon us. We will make a note of this order and raise it in our next meeting with them to ensure this doesn't happen again.

If you would like to discuss anything further with us please do not hesitate to contact us on theteam@impactplants.co.uk.

Badly packed and sub-standard

The two plants that I ordered were inadequately packed with the result that they were found to have been thrown around in transit.
One of the two plants had several dead shoots clearly browned.

Hi there,

We’re very sorry to hear that the plants you have ordered have arrived out of their packaging. Unfortunately, we have no control on how the plants are handled once they have left our nursery, although we do stress how important it is to the couriers that are products are handled with care. In our experience, any damage to the plants caused by transportation does not leave a lasting effect and once planted, the plants should recover and thrive. If you wish to discuss this any further and believe the plants to be badly damaged, please do contact us immediately so we can assist further.

If you would like to discuss anything further with us please do not hesitate to contact us on theteam@impactplants.co.uk.

Refused to communicate any delivery info.

Due to being physically disabled I asked for communication as to when I could expect delivery, so I could have some help to move them out of the sun. They did not bother with that at all just delivered and now stuck in the box in full sun for the next few days because of their REFUSAL to communicate in any way. Delivery can be anywhere between 3 days and 2 weeks.

Hi there,

We are extremely sorry about the lack of communication regarding the delivery of your order. Parcelforce send out an email the day before your delivery and a text on the day of delivery with the delivery timeslot. The only note we received on your order was ‘do not leave elsewhere’ unfortunately from this message we would not have know you needed us to contact you prior to delivery. We certainly would of had we known.

Since you have brought this to our attention via email, my colleague Judi has been in touch with you to arrange fresh plants on a date to suit you and at no further cost. I believe you agreed a date of Friday 15th march for some new plants so we hope that you are happy with the order.

Again, please accept our apologies if we have caused you any stress or inconvenience and we can assure you we certainly did not intend to. Please contact us if you require any further assistance.

Many thanks,
Impact Plants

Delivery and plant quality was excellent, however the Potting of the plants was awful, I had to keep the Plants in the boxes so the customer couldn’t see them

Great plants all packaged well

Great plants all packaged well, clearly labelled Live Plants, Fragile..... unfortunately the courier did not express the same view as plants had been tossed around prior to delivery damaging two of them... Contacted impact plants who were super helpful and resent two replacement plants straight away, no quibbles which arrived in mint condition.... would definitely buy from these guys again and looking forward to planting out the shrubs.
