Terrible delivery experience

I cannot comment on the blinds as they were ordered on behalf of a client. However, the delivery was appalling with the most discourteous driver I have EVER encountered. He was having difficulty finding the property and was so rude on the 'phone that I hung up. He handed the items (which were large and heavy) to my client and offered no assistance in carrying them. It is obvious that my client has a severely bad back but no offer was forthcoming. RW4Y - you need to investigate this because if reflects so badly on your company.

Hi there, we're so sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with our couriers. We will raise this with them as this is not the level of customer service we would give. Just to clarify that all deliveries are kerbside only and that it would be the driver's discretion to carry into a property boundary.

Products good, Customer Service very disappointing

Products are good - our windows and blinds are fifteen years old now, and we have just had the first need to repair a blind.

However, very disappointed with Fakro Customer Service, a real "Computer says No" attitude - flat refusal to engage with us on either repair or replacement unless we could produce the blind's serial number and, despite thorough examination of the blind, we could not (we recall now there were some adhesive paper labels which came off after several years in the sunshine and which we did not keep).

We were subsequently able quite easily though to identify a replacement blind on Fakro's linked blind vendor partner's website - quite why Fakro's Customer Service couldn't/ wouldn't help us with that is a mystery.

It's a real shame that we will never know whether our original blind could have been repaired, which we would have preferred given the pattern is no longer available, so we now do not have a matching set in the room.

Also, it is a waste if we've had to throw the existing blind away, if it could have been repaired.

A 40 day delivery!!

Having ordered the replacement seals at the end of January they finally arrived 40 days later and not within the 20 days originally quoted which was disappointing.

Hi Peter, we're really sorry about this experience with us. This was delivered in 27 working days which is unfortunately over the 20 days we advise, this is down to all parts being manufactured to order.

We are extremely sorry for the delay and tried to keep you updated regularly but we understand the frustration around this. Apologies again and hopefully when you order from us we can rectify this for you.
