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.

I ordered a potted rose from your company(on a Sunday). I almost immediately emailed to increase the order to two roses and and to invoice me with the balance owed. This was completely ignored and one was dispatched. No contact regarding my email.

Thank you for your review, and I’m sorry to hear about your experience.

Your order was placed on Sunday 22nd March at 2:57pm, and our customer service team operates Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm. We work through emails in the order they are received when the team returns, however your order had already been picked, packed, and dispatched at 9:54am on Monday 23rd March before the team had the opportunity to see your message requesting the change.

With potted roses we aim to dispatch quickly, often within 3–5 days, but during quieter periods orders can sometimes leave within a few hours of the working day beginning.

We completely understand why you were hoping to amend the order and are sorry we weren’t able to catch it in time before dispatch. If you would still like to place an additional order or need any assistance, please do contact our customer service team and we’ll be happy to help.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Could do better

On a positive note my order arrived quickly and in a sturdy box.
However my rose is lopsided with one shoot having lost its only leaves due to the string tie catching them. The other 3 are growing very close together.
Customer service have not responded to my email request for a replacement.
This rose is not to the standard would expect and certainly not worth the premium price paid. I wouldn't have picked this plant at a garden centre.

Reply from Peter Beales Roses

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear you were disappointed with the rose on arrival.

We’re pleased the plant arrived quickly and safely packaged. Having reviewed our records, we can see your email was received on 20th March and the enquiry was passed to one of our rosarians, who responded and closed the case on 24th March.

From the photo, the rose appears healthy and already producing strong new growth, which is a good sign that it will establish well once planted. Roses can sometimes look a little uneven early in the season as new shoots begin to develop, but they typically balance out as the plant grows through spring.

That said, we completely understand wanting the plant to meet expectations, especially when purchasing a premium rose. If you still have concerns, please do reply to the original email and our team will be very happy to take another look and assist further.

Thank you again for taking the time to leave your review.
