About Happy Beaks

Written by the company

Here at Happy Beaks we love all things feathered, and it gives us joy that everyday we can help birds live a healthy life. Our aim is to deliver the best quality bird food possible, as fast as possible and at the best price too!

Now more than ever, nature needs a helping hand, and that’s why we started Happy Beaks. By providing nutritious, high quality bird food at a price that is affordable to the masses, we can help you, help nature; and that feels great!

Of course we don’t want to give you just any bird feed, which is why, when it comes to our suppliers and bird food, we check, check and check again. Any feed or seed that comes through the doors of Happy Beaks, are and always will be, from the best bird food suppliers possible.

Happy Beaks offer next working day delivery with every order, as standard. Why? Because you wouldn’t want your birds to wait for their dinner, so we won’t make you wait for your delivery either.

Whatever your reason for using Happy Beaks, we’re just happy you’re here. By feeding the nature in your garden, you’re helping the world around us and doing something great!

From everyone at Happy Beaks, cheers!

Selling items not in stock, poor customer service

Well, where to begin? I ordered two 25.5kg No husk No grow no waste wild bird seed on 17/2/23. Free mainland UK postage which is advertised doesn't include Inverness, but I took the hit, as it still worked out cheaper than my regular supplier. BIG mistake.

Items were listed as in stock, with estimated dispatch date of 24/2/23. So much for next day delivery. When I asked when my goods were to be dispatched, the date then moved to 27/2/23 and, in the following email, maybe the end of this week (so towards 3/3/23), as the goods weren't in stock at all, and there was no guarantee they'd be dispatched on 3/3/23, two weeks after my original order.
I asked for a refund, which was agreed. But it was initially just for the goods and not the £14.99 extra delivery charge. I mean, it's not cost the company to dispatch something they haven't actually got in stock yet! I did get that refunded, after another few emails.

Now back with my original provider, who are reliable and, when they state free UK delivery, they actually mean it.

Good afternoon.

Thank you for your review however, I am so sorry to hear you have been so unhappy with our service.

I do believe that we refunded you your postage as a goodwill gesture before you cancelled your order. The issues unfortunately are with our larger bags that are due to be despatched this week. While we would be able to provide you with smaller bags at the same price it would mean cancelling your order and starting again.

I can also see that we have applied a full refund to your account to include the Meal Worms that you have already received.

As always, we are looking into ways on how we can improve so thank you for your feedback, this will be passed onto the relevant department.

With best regards, Clare.

Excellent service.

Excellent service.
The delivery company (Evri) left my parcel in an unsafe place & it was not there when I got home.
I notified the delivery company but got no response.
I then contacted Thompson & Morgan Customer service & they immediately issued a replacement.
Excellent result.
Other customer service departments should learn from this. Thank you

Excellent vendor but poor shipping company

Very good product, but the company is being let down by its choice of shipping company. Order number one resulted in someone else’s box of wine delivered instead of birdseed. The shipping company seemed incapable of finding the original order. Happy Beaks was contacted and immediately and cheerfully re-shipped another box of birdseed which was safely received. Faith in vendor restored. Order two arrived, but again the shipper delivered it wrong - to a neighbour. But we found it and retrieved it. A good company that has my business despite shipping issues.

A very impressive experience

I have been a satisfied customer of Happy Beaks for some 18 months, but recently had two occasions where bird feeders I had bought failed to live up to expectations, with two vanishing without trace. Yesterday, at around 2pm I emailed them to tell them what had happened, but made no request for refund or otherwise. Three hour later I had an email from Becky on the Customer Service team advising me that both items (one puchased in May and the other quite recently) would be replaced. I'm both surprised with te speed of response and most grateful for the unexpected outcome.

Good afternoon.

Thank you for your review and please accept my apologies for any disappointment or upset caused, this is never our intention.

While I am unsure what has happened, I am keen to get this resolved for you. However, there is very limited information within this review that I can use to find your order. Please do email us at info@happybeaks.co.uk with your order number and delivery address along with a brief description of your concerns. On receipt we will investigate further for you.

Wide range of choice

Wide range of choice, competition prices and fast delivery for items in stock. On one occasion, when the courier delivered to the wrong address, Happy Beaks customer service were very helpful and promptly resolved the matter.

They don't Make a Drama Out of a Crisis

I have shopped with Happy Beaks on many occasions and have always found their prices competitive and their service to be very good, especially when I recently had a glitch with my order. Once I contacted them they were quick to rectify it and did not make a drama out of a crisis. I will certainly return in the future.

Dismayed!!

I have for the second time had to cancel an order for no grow no mess bird seed, and request a refund. No indication on the website that the seed is out of stock, indeed it says that despatch would be within 24 hours if ordered by midday. Have been told that despatch will not happen before 15/8/22. Just not good enough. Will not be returning to this company.

Happy Beaks are part of the BVG group

Well I have to say I've not used Happy Beaks that much because they are dearer than most others.
I noticed today an email address from them as my order for no grow bird seed will be delayed considerably. It is
noreply at thompson-morgan
Now I had no idea that Thompson and Morgan were part of or possibly owned Happy Beaks. I cannot find any reference to it on their site or on google.Ah I have just found it. I know that this is not a review as such but I thought it worth sharing the knowledge. I have shied away from using Thompson and Morgan as I read some bad reviews, but several companies including Dobies are lumped together here at bvg.
So who do you get in touch with, to lodge a complaint or a good review? Explained here, but I'm unable to post a link. Look up BVG brands

Dreadful

Dreadful, the claimed they had a bird feeder in stock, which I ordered for my father's birthday, took my money promised to deliver and only 3 weeks later when nothing arrived, when I complained did they admit that they didnt stock the product and could not source it

Do not order from Happy Beaks

Do not order from Happy Beaks. I ordered over £150 worth of bird food (one of their bundles). Nearly a month later and I am still waiting for my items. Communication is shocking / inexistent. I chased, got given a dispatch date. Items still haven’t turned up, no communication, no explanation. It’s daylight robbery. Something is very wrong with this company. Do not, I repeat do not order from them. I am going to leave reviews wherever I can because this is beyond unacceptable.
