Hi Ian,

We've searched our system and unfortunately, we can’t find any orders associated with your name or email address. We've also checked our email and chat communications and found no record of any contact from you or your email.

Could you kindly let us know if the orders were placed under a different name or email address? We’d really appreciate the opportunity to look into this properly and see what went wrong.

As you can see from our previous reviews, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service both online and in-store. This kind of feedback is not something we take lightly, and we’d love the chance to make things right.

Regards,
Michael.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE

Zero customer service when a faulty electrical item was returned to them. No feedback, no apology for the inconvenience and several weeks later issue still not resolved.

This is customer service at its Irish best. Ordered items online (great website experience) - confirmation received - got an email about an hour later “would I accept a substitute for an out of stock item ?” Said yes !! The sub was slightly more expensive, but nobody came looking for the difference. All items shipped next day.

They have excellent customer service

They have excellent customer service. The first delivery left me short an item. They returned with the missing item the same day. If you have any queries etc They will get back to you straight away. I had ordered awkward heavy building items and the delivery guys were so helpful. They brought everything in to the back garden without even having to ask. If there was 10 stars would give them and more. Thanks to everyone working in TOC.. Highly appreciated

Picture of a powerhose on their website did not match the contents of the box. Description did not give details. When I realised I contacted support. Was offered a return, but I had already used before I realised. Asked for a partial refund as a show of good faith on their error but was denied. Significant cost to obtaining the add ons that appeared included in the website purchase

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about your experience.

We always aim to provide clear and accurate product information, and we regret that, in this case, there was an error with the image and description, which did not match the contents of the box.

As our support team explained, we were happy to offer a full return and refund. However, as a discount was already applied to your order, we were unable to offer an additional partial refund.

We understand this may have been frustrating, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. If there’s anything further we can do to help, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Regards,
Michael.

Very disappointed

Very disappointed ordered an outdoor rocking chair which said there was 1in the shop. Sent my son back to collect and it was out of stock. Need to update website regularly so not to cause disappointment

Reply from Tadhg O'Connor Ltd.

Hi Michelle,

We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment.

We’d like to clarify that, as outlined on our website, customers are advised to wait until they receive a collection confirmation email before coming to collect their order. This is to help avoid situations like this, and we regret that it caused confusion on this occasion.

While the website did display one item in stock at the time of your order, we later found that the remaining rocking chair was unfortunately damaged and therefore not suitable for sale.

We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

Regards,
Michael.

Very bad packing
