No response from customer services re damaged items
Generally 5* products, BUT had serious issues with recent order
I would usually give this company 5* (I’ve bought from them several times).
However, this time one of my items arrived damaged (wood badly dented and not in a useable condition). I tried contacting customer services several times with the photos, but haven’t had any response to my emails. Also another item in the order didn’t have the screws with it.
There’s no way to contact customer services other than the email address on their website. There’s no confirmation that my emails have been received or that they will be dealt with.
So I now have a damaged dressing rail, and a chair that I can’t assemble. And there’s no telling whether I’ll get a replacement or refund? Such a shame as I really love their products.

Hello Mrs O
Thank you so much for your continued support and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about the issues with your recent order, this is certainly not the experience we want any of our customers to have.
We completely understand your frustration, especially given your previous positive experiences with us. The damage to your dressing rail and the missing screws for your chair are unacceptable, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused.
It’s also concerning to hear that you haven’t received a response from our customer service team.
Please could you send us a direct email to info@greatlittletrading.co.uk with your order number and the email address you used to contact us? We’ll make it a priority to resolve this for you, whether that’s a replacement, refund, or sending out the missing parts.
We really appreciate your kind words about our products, and we hope to restore your trust in us.
Kind regards

Placed an order and still had heard nothing 3 weeks later
When I emailed they replied sorry they were unable to fulfill my order
Surely they should have contacted me and let me know instead of me having to chase up?
Unfortunate because an order that I placed several months ago was good which is why I chose to use them again. Not now though, I now have to hunt around for a suitable birthday present to be able to give on Monday

Good products, bad customer service.
Order 2 items, heard nothing for 10 days, the item eventually arrived over 2 weeks after ordering, this was after I had to repeatedly chase the company. The product arrived after the birthday party it was a present for, overall a very disappointing experience.

Hello Nathan
Thank you for your honest feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the delay and the inconvenience it caused, especially with the gift arriving after the birthday party.
We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait without updates and to have to chase for information. That’s not the experience we want for our customers, and we’re actively working on improving our communication and order tracking processes to prevent this from happening again.
We really appreciate your past support and are sorry we let you down this time. If there’s anything we can do to make this right, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Amazing company
We are absolutely delighted with our experience with GLTC. The customer service team went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after, and I am truly grateful for the generosity and care they showed.
The bunk bed we got is excellent. It’s solid, well made, and it’s very pretty. This is our second bed from GLTC, and once again the quality has met our expectations.
It’s rare to find a company that combines such reliable products with an excellent customer service. We wouldn’t look anywhere else for our children’s furniture.
