Absolutely Appalling
Absolutely shocking behavior from a boutique shop that claims to care about plants. My order (13198WS) arrived completely ruined, packed appallingly in a tiny cling-wrap roll and random scraps of cardboard. The roots of this decades-old tree were actively impaled by planks of wood, and the entire plant was crushed on its side. On top of that, it was delayed for days by DPD after being sent to the wrong depot, forcing me to pay an extra £10 just to get it delivered on Thursday after it left on Monday.Seeing a beautiful tree treated with such severe negligence broke my heart. I even spent money hiring a handyman for track lighting and bought an expensive Lechuza pot, all completely wasted now. While Conservatory Archives finally refunded the tree itself, they are stubbornly refusing to refund the £48 delivery fee. Why should I be out of pocket for an utterly failed delivery that destroyed the product? To make matters worse, the staff on the phone gave me nothing but a bad attitude and they have never once apologised. I previously took down a negative review hoping they would do the right thing, but their customer service is non-existent. I am totally shocked by this reputable shop's conduct. I am now taking this to my bank to force a full chargeback for breach of contract under the Consumer Rights Act. Avoid this place at all costs.
