Fast delivery and well packaged

Overall, I’m happy with Fishdeal — the delivery was fast and everything was well packaged. The only issue was that some of the lures I chose arrived in different colours than the ones I selected; I didn’t request an exchange in time and later it was already too late. I’d be happy if you expand the Hearty Rise range in the future. It would also be great if, in case of a colour mismatch, you could send a short notification/confirmation so the customer can decide how to proceed. Despite that, my overall impression is positive and I would order again

OK this time

Firstly, not UK based despite web address. Have had issues with misdelivery not being resolved previously, however on this occasion no issues. Shame they don't put any cushioning in the parcels too, just 2 reels in a box so the reel boxes arrived damaged. Reels OK though

I ordered the tent on Saturday making the most of the 20% off deal.
It arrived safely on Thursday.
I erected in my garden, it turned out to be a windstorm. The tent stayed out assisted by weights .
I was able to enjoy two hours in the tent.
Fantastic buy. Would buy again.

Hi,

We’re very sorry to hear about the difficulties with your order and the split deliveries. We understand how frustrating it must have been to have multiple deliveries over several days and to deal with missed time slots.

Sometimes parcels are split by the courier due to size, weight, or warehouse processing, and unfortunately these decisions are out of our hands. Our team always does their very best to coordinate and monitor shipments, and we regret that in this case the experience was far from smooth.

Please contact our customer service team if you’d like us to review this specific order and provide further assistance.

Kind regards,
Team Fishdeal
