That's what you call good customer service

I wanted to give a review about the customer service that I received. We bought a new build in 2023 with Vado shower unit. This year we had an issue with the small attachment holding the shower head, it unfortunately snapped. Initially we looked to buy a replacement for just the small attachment but it wasn't possible, we'd have to buy the whole holder unit which we didn't want to because the rest of the unit was fine. I contacted Vado customer services to ask if it was possible to buy just the small attachment and unlike most companies these days we actually encountered really excellent customer service. A really fast response from one agent called Holly, who kept in touch all the way, communicated about all the information she needed and then said she'd send me a new attachment free of charge. Things go wrong from time to time, but it is so rare to find a company where a real person actually deals with you personally, quickly, sensitively and efficiently. Thank you very much. Keep up the good customer service.

The warranty support service provided by Adam at Vado this week was outstanding. I phoned Vado seeking advice / part numbering for replacement tap cartridges. Adam was quickly able to confirm part numbers, that I had registered for the warranty previously, and 'within warranty' status of my taps: Net result, new cartridges supplied and at my home within three days! Super service, and an excellent example of first-class customer focus.

Excellent Service

I am an ordinary consumer who chose Vado bath mixer taps via researching on line. Upon installation we encountered a usability issue with the diverter. Vado were exceptionally helpful and gave the most extraordinary service to resolve the issue. I truly did not expect this type of bespoke service for a main-stream product where typically you would expect a company to say the product is working according to its specification and there is nothing else that can be done. Instead, Vado went into problem solving mode and came up with an elegant solution. I highly recommend this company for its service and the quality of its product.
