Java Plants (UK) Sopplyer anyone used them?
Hi.
I ordered a collection of plants from Java Plants a while ago. They took the money from my credit card on the same day I ordered but I have still not seen any plants. Each time I call I get told they were dispatched yesterday......... Then I was promised in an email that they'd be here today, but they're not. So has anyone had a good experience with this company or am I getting the run around. Thanks.

I think that they only post on a thursday, usually arriving the next day.
With all the bad weather the postal service is also up the creek. Id give it a few more days. And can you ask the lord to give us some nicer weather please Mr Pope, it took me 4 hrs to go 13 miles yesterday!!! Mark "The Pope" wrote in message ... Hi.

I used them a couple of times and had no problems. The orders arrived the
Friday following my order and the plants were fine. "The Pope" wrote in message ... Hi. I ordered a collection of plants from Java Plants a while ago.

Well the end result is that the plants still haven't turned up and so I sent them an email to cancel the order and ask for a refund. This they told me they would do and I now have the refund.. The point is I contacted them several times and each time I was given a different dispatch date so I now have to wonder if the plants were sent at all.

I placed an order with them just before Christmas. In January I contacted them... "Where are my plants, you debited my money the day I ordered!" I was also annoyed that their system did not send out a confirming email (so be sure to capture the order details from the screen). They didn't answer my email for a week. By now I was very cross as I order online all the time and this was the worst treatment I'd ever had. Then I got an email apologising and saying that the plants would come out that week. No explanation, but they were coming. Anyway, here is the important part: When the plants arrived they were FANTASTIC quality and they were very well packaged. I bought their smallest economy collection and I was overjoyed. I even had plants to spare and had to give some away! It was worth the wait. The quality was so good (and the cost so low) that I will order from them again. However I am going to be ringing them up - not emailing - right after I place the order, to push for a delivery date. Because of the excellent quality I would recommend you order with them again - but only if you have time to chase them so that your order does actually arrive! -- Flash Wilson -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- rant Outlook - Tools - Options - Mail Format - Plain Text Quote properly.

Well I'm glad you got a good result, but I wont be ordering from them again. The fact that I phoned and emailed them and got a different answer every time suggests to me that they're systems are not up to much. They might produce great plants but I wont deal with a company who's idea of customer relations is to fob them off with lies.

I have used Java - I got good plants in good time - though I ordered over
the phone and not through the NET. I have just ordered some from Green Line - should be here tomorrow - we will see! |

Well some excellent service for a change. I faxed an order to Green
Line Aquatic Plants on Tuesday, quite late in the evening. Within minutes I had a call from them as part of the fax wasn't readable. We sorted out the order and it arrived this morning. The tank now looks great. I know where I'll be ordering plants from in the future.

I have used Greenline many times over several years, and have always had good service and great plants. Phil. |

Well my Green Line plants arrived on-time, we took a while sorting out the
order, but all was OK. The advice given on the phone was OK too. The plants most were excellent - the Echinodorus Tenellus was a bit bedraggled but there was much more of them than I had expected.....In any case they will probably die off a bit before they start growing because of the upheaval that they have endured. All in all - a good response, good plants for reasonable cost. Packaging was OK too and they were delivered cold (as it says on the box - perishable goods - keep cool). |
