Excellent after sales service

One of my roses died after planting it and after sending the company a photo, they replaced it immediately.

Thanks for sharing sorry to hear you lost the first plant, but good to hear the replacement was handled quickly after you got in touch.

Hope the new rose establishes well and performs as expected going forward.

The two roses purchased

The two roses purchased were for an anniversary gift for our daughter and son in law. The gift was delivered promptly arriving on the exact day of their anniversary!
Lynn quickly planted them in their garden and was highly delighted on their quality etc. We will send her more roses on her birthday in a weeks time.

I have bought roses from Peter Beales…

I have bought roses from Peter Beales for forty years and still intend to. They have all thrived and give us enormous pleasure. Visiting the centre at Attleborough is a great experience, plenty of help and advice, lots of shopping and a super café. (My latest purchase is a rose box)

Shaken Upside Down During Delivery

Rose box was upright on delivery but on unpacking nearly all of the topping bark had emptied out into the box so looks as if the box had spent time upside down and possibly shaken to dislodge the bark!

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about your experience on unpacking.

While the box may have been handled correctly at the point of delivery, it does sound like it may have been turned during transit, which can sometimes cause the decorative bark topping to shift. This won’t affect the health of the rose itself, but we completely understand it’s not ideal to open.

If you have any concerns about the condition of the plant itself, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us and we’ll be more than happy to help.

Unhappy customer

I was very disappointed with the quality of this rose. It only had one decent shoot and when I removed it from its container all the stuff (root ball} just fell away leaving the bare roots. I did correctly dig a large hole and carefully planted it. It has substantially wilted and doesn’t look very healthy.

Sorry to hear you’ve been disappointed with the condition of your rose that’s not what we want for our customers.

All of our roses are covered by a one-year guarantee. As they are living plants, some variation can happen, but the issues you’ve described don’t sound as expected for a healthy plant on arrival.

We’d like to take a closer look at this for you. If you’re able to, please send a few photos of the rose (including the roots if you have them) along with your order details to support@peterbealesroses.com. Our team can then assess things properly and arrange the right resolution, whether that’s care advice or a replacement if needed.

The order took six weeks to arrive

The order took six weeks to arrive, although the website stated that it would be dispatched in 5-7 days. I tried calling 5 times, and on two occasions there was no answer. I spoke to an agent on three occasions, and each time I was given a different reason for the delay. Finally about 30% of my order was sent to me, as the other items were out of stock. I will say that I was dutifully refunded for the roses that I did not receive. Overall a very frustrating and disappointing experience with this company.

Reply from Peter Beales Roses

Thanks for your feedback and I’m sorry for the frustration caused here.

A six-week wait alongside unclear communication isn’t the experience we aim to provide. Stock availability can sometimes change quickly, but you should have been kept properly informed throughout, and the mixed messages you received from the team clearly didn’t help.

While I’m glad the refund for the unavailable items was processed, the overall experience you’ve described isn’t acceptable and we’re taking this on board internally, particularly around communication and stock accuracy.

If there’s anything further you’d like us to look into regarding your order, please feel free to contact us at support@peterbealesroses.com with your details and we’ll review it for you.

Roses fine but DPD were hopeless

Roses fine but DPD were hopeless. On second delivery attempt they left them by the front door where they could have left them in the first place. I think they tried to mis-deliver them or not at all.

Thank you for your feedback, David.

We’re really pleased to hear that the roses arrived safely and that you were happy with them. However, we’re sorry to hear about the experience you had with the delivery from DPD.

We rely on them as our courier, but we completely understand how frustrating delivery issues can be. Your comments are helpful and we will pass this feedback on, as it’s important they know when the service hasn’t met expectations.

Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review, and we hope you enjoy your roses.
