Poor Service

When I entered the store, I saw 3 staff members stacking a shelf at the back of the store who didn't even notice me. I returned to the checkout with my items and nobody was there, so I had to call out loud for a member of staff to come over. Eventually, begrudgingly someone did.

I then asked a simple question regarding stock replacement times and dates of an item I regularly buy there, and the assistant wasn't sure of the answer.

I will be using the other major pet store from now on.

Care check prices carefully.

Love the choice that they have in stock. High quality items to pick from.
However need to be carefully that you are charged correctly, the item we purchased had a wrong barcode and item discription, so were charged for a larger item than we purchased.

We're glad you appreciate our selection and quality. We regret the incorrect charge due to the barcode issue. barcodes are provided in products by the supplier , so we would need to raise such issues with them We'll review our processes to prevent this error from happening again. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
