Great Blinds & Service

From the moment I ordered my blinds, a very nice young man came round & helped me decide what was best for my situation. When it came to the fitting, it was done with no fuss & no mess. I can highly recommend Surrey Blinds for the blinds & the fitting. The price charged was very reasonable as well.

Very nice company to deal with

Very nice company to deal with. No pressure sales talk. Quick measure and quote. Very tidy and efficient fitter and all completed within the time frame stated. We are going to have them back again in the Spring to quote for our conservatory blinds.

A good service

I can't find any fault. A prompt appointment for consultation. Delivered and fitted within 3 weeks. The fitting was expertly done, no hassle or mess - even bought his own hoover!

Absolutely awful company

Absolutely awful company with no customer service. From the moment I placed my order they could not have been more disinterested. Couldn't have cared less that I was giving them my business. I had to wait 9 weeks instead of the 5 weeks that I was told for my blinds. During this time I had to ring and chase several times, they never once took the initiative to phone me and apologise for the delay. Come the day of the fitting, two of the blinds didn't fit. On phoning the office to inform of this a female was in no way apologetic for the mistake, just told me I would have to wait for someone to come and have a look and possibly for a reorder. She then said someone would come at 5pm that evening to check. Having waited in, by 5.45 they still hadn't arrived. Again, no phone call from the office to explain, so I had to ring to be told "oh he's just on his way". A simply customer service course for this person would help her no end.

Hello there Sandra,

Thank you for your feedback.

I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with our service.

I have taken a look in to this and I can see that unfortunately there was a delay with your blinds coming in to stock due to a delay with the supplier. I am very sorry that you were not informed of this and I will be looking in to this internally.

As soon as the blinds arrived in to stock, we did arrange a fitting with yourself.

As you have mentioned unfortunately, when the we arrived to fit the blinds, the original fitter was unable to complete the fit on two of the blinds.

We did apologise this was the case and arranged for our Senior fitter to attend your property on the same day to resolve the situation. Unfortunately due to circumstances outside of our control he was running slightly behind, due to the time of day you advised the time was not suitable for yourself, as such we rearrange the appointment.

Once again I am very sorry for the issues you experienced, however I hope you can appreciate we did our best to get these resolved for you, all of your blinds were fully fitted within 2 working days of your original fit.

Kind Regards

Elise

I was so pleased with everything

I was so pleased with everything. I found Surrey Blinds web-site and was impressed. I went into the shop and they were so helpful. The lady who came to measure and advise was so friendly and helpful and the fitter was efficient. The whole thing could not have been better.

Surrey Blinds came and measured an…

Surrey Blinds came and measured an opening for us and installed the blind when needed. It clearly had been measured too short and the fitter tried to tell us they always come up short and that it is normal when it was finally fitted. As the gap was large enough to see under the blind when closed they came back to re measure and confirmed that it was too short and another will be made and fitted. Its now been 2 months and despite calling 6 times in the last month they still have not called me back to let me know when I will see the correct ones. It is clear that the customer service agents just don't care about their customer. They will happily take a message and say someone will call back but they never do. I was told they were on the phone so asked to hold for them but was told they were unable to put me on hold? When I asked who had been told to call me back I was told that it was a director of the company. If even the directors do not care what hope do I have?
I am hoping this review at least gets someone to call me back!

Beware!

Order placed for plantation shutters in early July.
I am still waiting! Customer service is horrible.
You get treated like a pest when asking for updates, or reasons for a delay.
It’s now been 17 weeks since I placed the order even though their sales team proudly tout around the estimate of 10.
When you call, you get told that ‘when it comes it comes!’
This company is a joke and I paid in full.
Wish I gave my money to another company.
Neighbours all ordered from other companies and theirs have been fully fitted months ago.
So disappointed.
At least give your customers an explanation and treat us with some respect. It’s someone’s home you’re dealing with and a person on the other end.

I would not recommend or use this company again. My blinds were due to be installed in August (original order placed in April), the fitter was unable to do so because a part was missing. Two months later and I still have no blinds. Worse, is the unacceptable customer service I have received over the last two months. Rude, inefficient and unresponsive. I call every week for an update, I rarely receive a courtesy update despite being told to expect a call and a resolution.

Lovely blinds and fitter awful customer service

I’m pleased with my product and fitting service but the customer service was disappointing. I ordered and paid upfront for my electronic blinds for my bifold and patio doors in beginning of July I heard nothing from Surrey blinds I had to call them at end of August to see what was happening with my order to be told they were running late with order, and someone would call me back with update next day I had to call twice more to arrange fitting, on the day of fitting they were running 3hrs late because previous job took longer than expected. The fitter was very good and was at my house till 9pm! Setting my blinds up for me.

Hello there Nicki,

Thank you for your feedback,

It is lovely to hear that you are enjoying your motorised blinds. However I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with our Customer Service.

I have taken a look in to this and I can see that unfortunately there was a delay with your blinds coming in to stock due to a delay with the supplier. I am very sorry that you were not informed of this.

The supplier should keep us fully updated on the status of all orders, unfortunately on this occasion they did not follow the process. This has been raised with them to ensure that going forward we are kept fully updated, so we can proactively update our customers.

As soon as the blinds arrived in to stock, we did arrange for them to be fitted.

I apologsie that the fitting consultant was running behind on the day of the fit, I hope you can appreciate that this can sometimes occur due to unforeseen circumstances. We did keep you fully updated with regards to this and completed your fit on the day, to avoid any further inconvenience.

Once again I am very sorry for the delay that you experienced and thank you for bring this to my attention so this can be addressed to ensure this does not happen again in the future.

Kind Regards

When Finally Arrived I Was Delighted

I am delighted with my new shutters which were fitted very tidily.
When Surrey Blinds finally rang to say consignment had arrived I was given a prompt fitting slot.

But have to say that SB gave misleading information about likely waiting time for shipment which was rather irritating. I had to ring a couple of times to ask for information about delay. SB need to be more proactive to keep clients informed.
As a result I have dropped to 3 stars overall.
