Hi Paul,
Thank you for your feedback!
We’re glad to hear you’re happy with our service and delivery times. We completely understand that too many emails can be a bit much, maybe we need to work on our “email diet”! 😉

We really appreciate your recommendation and your support.

Reply from JL Brooks

Hi Wayne,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re very sorry for the confusion and frustration caused by the cancellation of your order without clear communication.

After looking into this, it appears the issue was due to a training oversight with one of our newer team members. This has now been addressed, and our procedures reinforced to prevent this happening again.

The cancellation was necessary because the Lister’s Chorizo we had in stock was very short-dated, and no fresh stock was due to arrive within a suitable time frame. However, we should have communicated this clearly to you, and we sincerely apologise for not doing so.

Thank you again for your feedback and understanding.

Kind regards,
Selina

Hi Max,

I’m so sorry to hear that you were disappointed and that you didn’t see any of my emails informing you of the issues we were experiencing due to the extreme weather conditions we recently had, including Storm Goretti. It’s such a shame to receive a disappointed review when these delays were unfortunately out of our control, and some communications were missed along the way.

I do hope you enjoy the Pomme Bears, and thank you again for your order. Your custom is very much appreciated, and we hope to provide a smoother experience for you in the future.

Kind regards,

Crisps were stale

Crisps were stale. When I contacted them, they said they were just whilesalers and gave me a link to contact the manufacturers directly.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

I’m sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the crisps you received. As a wholesaler, we do not manufacture the products ourselves; however, I was hoping that the details I provided would allow you to contact the manufacturer directly, as they are best placed to investigate quality concerns and offer a suitable resolution.

I do hope you were able to contact the manufacturer directly, as they are always keen to ensure customers have a satisfying experience with their products.
