Excellent customer service
The team were really helpful when discussing the board I was interested in. Due to the postal strike there would have been a delay in getting the board to me but George offered to deliver the board to my house himself (a 2.5 hour drive for him!). That is what I call excellent customer service!

Hi Rod,
Firstly we are so sorry that you have been disappointed with the quality of service that you have received from Parcel Force. Thankfully as we said on the phone, this is the first and hopefully last time for a disappointment like this for any of our clients.
We appreciate any feedback that we receive as this allows us to continue to grow as a new family business within the watersports world. As discussed, we look forward to you receiving your parcel following your frustrations by tomorrow... and in time for your holiday which is great news!
Once again thank you for your constructive feedback and we really do hope that you enjoy the pump!
All the very best,
Emily & The Watersports Centre Team.
Amazing service!
Amazing service! Called up to see if there was any fin screws available, and told on the phone they would be ready whenever I could get there. I paid online and was at the store 15 minutes later to be greeted by very helpful and very friendly staff! I couldn't recommend these more!
