Excellent service again from the studio…

Excellent service again from the studio team (Beth, Steph and Bex) - all of them were exceptionally helpful with a template problem I had, ensured that I was using the correct templates and that the fold lines on my artwork would be in the correct places. Great communication and a pleasure to deal with!

Great company to deal with

I have been dealing with Route 1 Print for quite a number of years and always found them reliable and well priced. Orders are dispatched on time and the staff are always pleasant and helpful whether on the phone or by email. My account manager David is very attentive and keeps in regular contact with me, updating me with any new products or services. I had an artwork issue recently which was my own fault and Bex Taylor in the artwork team was extremely pleasant and helpful, getting my issue resolved very quickly. Top marks!

Excellent customer care and quality products

Been printing with R1 for about a year and I’m consistently impressed with both their quality products, as well as the customer sales and studio teams. Both teams are friendly, efficient and helpful. Plus they know the products and processes inside out! Special mention to Beth in the studio, as well as Emily, Elina and Ophelia in customer service. Just a delight to deal with!

Printing Issue Help

I’d like to give a special mention to…Beth

I’d like to give a special mention to Beth at Route One for being consistently helpful, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. She always goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly and is quick to assist with any queries or requests.
I’d also like to recognise the rest of the artwork team for their excellent work handling complex design projects. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to deliver high-quality artwork within tight deadlines is impressive. Turnaround times are consistently fast without compromising on quality, making them a reliable and valued partner.
A great team to work with – highly recommended.

Issues resolved effectively

We had an issue with a delivery going to the wrong address. When R1 was notified, they was reprinted and they arrived the next working day. Unfortunately, there was print errors and the client wanted a refund. Ashley Doughty from R1 was very understanding and very helpful throughout the entire process. Unfortunately, issues can occur but its how they are dealt with that matters. And Ashley further strengthened our relationship with R1 ensuring they are our No.1 supplier and 'go to' company for printed material. The customer service is exceptional which allows us as a reseller to offer the same level of customer service.

Thank you for making us your go-to supplier for printed materials.

Completely useless now to trade and…

-- In response, not the right response at all. You have consistently caused issues with orders through your own website issues, stock problems and logistical errors. We are entitled to a good service and you have fallen short on every occasion. When this was raised with you, your instant response was to close our account and cancel all ongoing jobs. That's not a rational response by any business means.

Closed our account because we complained about the poor customer service. Customer of 14 years - now entirely banned and blackmailed into returning another customer's job before we can have our own, despite it being four days late.

Completely useless now to trade and otherwise. Every single order has a problem. The point of a trade printer is we leave a job in your hands and you deliver a trade service. Instead, we get constant excuses, late deliveries, problems with website and just a pathetic sorry each time from a script. The worst customer service in the printing industry by far. Absolutely abysmal but more than happy to post us letters every week asking us to visit for a tour?! Out of touch beyond belief.

Hi Jacob,

We apologise for the inconvenience caused. As discussed, we are more than happy to complete a full reprint once we have received the item back. In relation to your other order, this was attempted to be delivered by the courier, on time, on the turnaround that it was ordered on. However, the delivery was rejected at the location.

In relation to your account being closed, we value every customer and don't close accounts without good reason. In this instance, the decision followed repeated conduct towards our staff that fell outside what we consider acceptable. Our team has the right to a respectful working environment, and we'll always stand behind them on that.

We appreciate that this isn't the response you were hoping for, but we believe it was the right one.

Thanks
