Poor customer support

I bought a product from them which was branded 'Kennedy' - Cromwell said this was their own brand name. The instruction booklet contained no contact details of who to go to for support and it was not very clear on some points. The device had to be loaded with a cartridge which involved unscrewing the top. The top was so tight , however, that I could not budge it with my hands . I rang Cromwell for assistance and the operator referred my inquiry to their technical team - but they never got back to me.

BEC,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced with your Kennedy product and the support you received.

I recently tried to contact you by telephone to discuss your experience personally, however I was unable to reach you. As I was unable to speak with you, I have also sent an email in the hope that we can better understand the issue and see if there is anything we can do to help.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the instruction booklet and understand how frustrating it must have been when you were unable to remove the top of the device to load the cartridge. We also apologise that, after your enquiry was passed to our technical team, you did not receive the follow-up assistance you were expecting.

At Cromwell, we aim to provide clear product information and responsive customer support, and we're disappointed that we fell short on this occasion. Your comments have been shared with the relevant teams so we can review both the product documentation and our internal communication processes.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and hope to hear from you soon so that we can assist further if possible.

Kind regards,
Donna
Customer Resolution Team.

Have been useless on the last two…

Have been useless on the last two orders I’ve made and your communication is horrendous.

I will certainly look to find a different supplier from now on

Great serve and product

Great serve and product, what made it really great that they found a courier who can find us, which shouldn't be hard as we're the only place on the postcode, with the nearest other property a mile away and located centrally in the country but many fail even in these days of great technology so thanks again

Churchill exceptional service

I ave purchased from Churchill previously. Now I had to order spares for my broken tap extractor tool, after loaning it out to a colleague.
The ordering process was very easy and the turnaround time from placing my order to delivery was exceptional.
Top marks from me Churchill.
