This company are charging Northern…

This company are charging Northern Ireland customers £24 for delivery of a few travel cups (DPD (2-4 working days) (Excl. Local Import Duty & Tax): £24.00).
Yes £24 delivery to another part of the UK.
I ordered elsewhere for £3.99 postage to NI for the same product. 83% cheaper for delivery.
I order a lot from mainland UK, but I’ve never come across this sort of extortionate postage combined with a poor email response.
*I didn’t place my order because when I came to check out I’m wasn’t prepared to pay £24 for delivery. I emailed asking about cheaper delivery options and wasn’t offered any in the replies. The delivery issue/correspondence was part of my experience (trying to) shop, so I feel it’s entirely appropriate to leave a review - especially as I tried to engage to find a solution.
**The cups were only slightly more expensive from the other website (£26.99 vs £26.40 & £26.99 vs £25.80).

Hi Christine,

Thanks for your review,

I can see you’ve left a 1 star review without placing an order, so you haven’t really had an experience with us and are only disappointed with the delivery pricing, this shouldn’t be something to warrant a 1 star review..

The delivery options are priced according to what it costs our company, our products range from as little as 5g all the way up to 100kg+, it's extremely difficult to price delivery internationally but we try to be as reasonable as possible.

Post-Brexit it has becoming very challenging in exporting products, we are doing our best to continually improve our offerings, but as it stands, this is the only (reliable) option we can offer.

If you’re able to arrange delivery cheaper, we also offer a collection option too for you to arrange your own delivery.

We have many happy customers in Northern Ireland, our loyal NI customers shop with us as they appreciate our product range and service.

We feel this review is unfair as you haven’t placed an order with us and you’ve left us a negative review because your not happy with the pricing structure of our delivery options.

Despite our disappointment in the review, we will continue to work on our delivery options and improve them moving forwards for our customers.

* In response to edit:
Our customer service team responded explaining that unfortunately we didn't have any other delivery options. It may not have been the response with a lower price you expected, but there was a customer service pre-sales response nonetheless.

You have clearly left us a negative review because you're not happy with our delivery prices to NI, I've explained that unfortunately, we don't have any other reliable options right now, especially post-Brexit.

Hopefully we will have more options in the future, but it's not fair to leave a negative review because it's not cheap enough.

You can buy most products online through our website for a fraction of the price of other marketplaces, hence you attempted to shop with us in the first place, you then found cheaper delivery elsewhere which brought your overall total down and you decided to shop elsewhere, which is absolutely fine, but we shouldn't be given a negative review for this.

Always had good service

Always had good service, I have used many times. If there is a product out of stock, we are informed quickly and offered an alternative. All correspondence has been answered swiftly. Good range of products for our business and will continue to use.

Problem Sorted Quickly

My relationship with ShopCoffee didnt start the best, granted it was not entirely their fault. But that does not matter as they were quick to resolve the issue and received my coffee machine the next day

Bad costumer service

I bought a reusable coffee filter and after using it there was sediment left in the coffee. I wrote to Shop Coffee to explain the problem and request a refund however after many emails, some which suggested the customer was wrong not the product, I gave up. Despite being a loyal customer I wasn't treated well and therefore will not buy from them again.

Hi Mike,

I'm sorry to hear about this, we don't manufacture the product, although we only list products from brands we have confidence in. I'm surprised to hear you are disappointed with the product as we've sold many of these without any negative feedback, and so I'd like to learn more to help get to the bottom of this.

I'm more than happy to look further into this and come to a reasonable resolution, please call us on 01223 904 908 and I can promise we'll take care of you.

Thanks,

Maz

Delivery rip off

I ordered cups and paid for next day delivery. It took 3 working days so I complained and asked for refund of the extra cost. I was told there was a lead in time for the order so no refund. It is ridiculous to allow customers to pay £8.99 for a delivery they can't do. Will not order from them again

Hi Rachel,

I'm sorry, but it was clear on: 1. the product page, 2. cart, 3. checkout and even on your 4. confirmation email PDF invoice. That's 4 places where the phrase "Dispatches in 2-5 working days" was stated and in 3 of those places in bold, red text, along with the following notice:

"Please note, dispatch times vary by product and where possible, we'll display this beside each product shown in your cart. Upgraded delivery will speed up your delivery but not the dispatch times."

I think it's extremely unfair that you've left us a 1 star review when it was made extremely clear that this product would have a 2-5 day dispatch time.

Your chosen delivery method was next day and it was indeed sent on a next day service, which means you got your order delivered on the 3rd working day, well within the 6 working days it should have taken.

We actually fulfilled your order in half the time!

I request all our customers and potential customers who see this review to look at our other reviews across all platforms and you will see that over 95% of our customers are extremely happy with our services and recommend us to others.

For customers who order expecting unjustified partial refunds further down the line, I'd recommend other conglomerate marketplaces, not ours.

We're already extremely competitive, offer value added services and really take care of our customers, but we won't stand for unfair requests and review threats.

Brilliant

Very fast, good price, delivered in 2 days, it was much quicker than expected and packaging/item was completely flawless condition. 10/10 service, no issues!
