Non existent customer service throughout my experience
I placed a preorder with Planters on 20th March for five planters and matching feet. I ordered expecting delivery on 1st April.
I received no further information about my order and when it failed to arrive, I contacted them to ask where it was. I was advised that it would now arrive on 7th April, which I accepted.
Once again the parcel did not arrive, despite a message from the carrier DHL, saying that it was delayed, and would arrive on 8th. I contacted Planters on 10th April for further clarification, and was advised that it was being collected and would arrive over the weekend of 11/12th April. The parcel did not arrive! I tracked my parcel using the DHL link which still showed my parcel delayed; basically my parcel was lost in the system but had been with them since 2nd April!
On 13th April I contacted Planters again for their update, and an explanation of why I was receiving information that did not hold true. I was basically fobbed off and told that it would take them a day to get in contact with DHL and that I would be called back. The call did not materialise and unprepared to wait any longer I called back and asked for a refund of my order. I was informed that until they could contact DHL to confirm that the order would not be delivered, I could not be refunded.
I explained that it was not my issue, and asked to speak to a manager, even offering to attend in person to get the matter resolved!
I was miraculously put through to a manager who issued my refund there and then, which I have now received.
Today, 17th April I have just turned away a DHL delivery of the items that I originally ordered! That’s 17 days late, with no customer support coming directly from Planters and despite me cancelling the order and being refunded.
Shocking company to deal with when things don’t go to plan, with dire customer service. Will never use them again!

Wide product range and impeccable customer service
Great range of products and prices. We could not find what we wanted in the garden centres and then found Planters and just what we were looking for. Excellent customer service. A sign of a good company is how they react when things don't quite go to plan. We had a glitch but Planters dealt with it efficiently and quickly. No hesitation in recommending Planters.

Disappointing packaging. V good customer service
Ordered a £169 galvanised planter and received a dented and peeling planter. Asked for a refund and was offered a 20% discount which I refused, offered 30% off and then a replacement, so agreed on a replacement. The customer service at this stage was great, no issues and happy to listen. Planter 2 arrived, dented again. The packaging was laughable, no decent cushioning and the box hardly closed. Emailed customer service again with images and currently waiting for a response. Would not buy again from this company given the damaged items.
Edit 16/4. Customer service have been fab and a personal message from the MD. Thank you

Ordered 2 large planters
Ordered 2 large planters. Money taken and and delivery organised for 2nd. April. From then I have been trying to contact both DX [ delivery agents ] and Planters. I'm promised a call back but absolutely nothing happens. I have never before had to deal such an awful Company. So fed up, I have cancelled and requested a refund. They have not even acknowledged this so I am not sure what to do next.

Dear Mr James,
Thank you for your review and we're sorry for the experience you've had — this is not the standard we aim to provide and we apologise.
I can confirm that a full refund has been processed and a goodwill gesture has been sent across to you. I hope this goes some way towards making up for the inconvenience caused.
Your case will be raised at our next directors' meeting to ensure we understand what went wrong and prevent it from happening again.
Should you remain interested in our products, we would welcome the opportunity to restore your confidence.
Kind regards,

Terrible customer support
I ordered & paid for two oak barrel planters. When they didn’t arrive I contacted Planters who told me to contact the seller directly (didn’t know they were just a middle man taking a profit). Got given the company’s name by Planters. Contacted Tulipy who had no record of my order or payment. Contacted Planters who told me I had to deal with Tulipy. Don’t buy from this company as if there’s a problem they don’t want to know. Got a refund by going through my bank.

Dear Mr Brookes,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We'd like to clarify that Tulipy and Planters.co.uk are one and the same company — there is no middleman involved. Planters.co.uk is our trading name and Tulipy LTD the registered company name you will see in Companies House. We can see from our records that you did receive responses to your enquiries and were dealt with in a timely manner by our team. We sincerely apologise for the delay with your order delivery, as this is not the standard of service we aim to provide. We're sorry the experience left you feeling this way and hope you would consider giving us another chance in the future.
Kind regards,
