In stock at the right price

They stocked the product I wanted at the right price which thankfully meant I didn't have to use Am**on.
Item arrived safely and in good time.
Having a high street presence also means a lot to me.

I bought a powder coated steel Vida XL garden dining set from Robert Dyas for my mother and it started rusting after a few months. I called them today as I could see it for myself (I don't live locally to where it was delivered) and I was told that because I am out of warranty by 4 days (it was 12 month warranty) there is nothing they can do. After being put on hold, Customer service gave me a number for Vida, who are constantly closed and they will only liaise with you on Chatbot. Really poor quality product and poor customer service. It is a case of buy cheap, buy thrice unfortunately.

Good Afternoon Lyn.

I hope you are well today.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us here at Robert Dyas.

We are sorry to hear that you have experienced issues with your Vida XL garden dining set, particularly after only a few months of use. We completely understand how disappointing this must be, especially when the set was purchased as a gift for your mother.

At Robert Dyas, our standard warranty period is 12 months from the date of purchase. As the item is now outside of this warranty period, any warranty-related concerns need to be raised directly with the manufacturer, Vida XL who will be able to advise you on the options available.

We are also sorry to hear about the difficulties you have experienced when trying to contact Vida XL. We appreciate how frustrating this can be when you are looking for assistance with a product.

Thank you again for taking the time to provide your feedback. We hope that you are able to get the matter resolved with the manufacturer as soon as possible.

Have a good day!

Good Afternoon,

Thank you for your review, I hope you are well today!
I am very sorry to hear about your experience you have described, this is certainly not what we wish for our customers.

Having looked into this I can see that a courier query has been raised and we should have a response within 24 hours. Once we have a response we will reach out to you with an update,

We appreciate your patience whilst we work to resolve this for you.
Kind regards

Disappointing delivery service

Disappointing delivery service

I placed an order with Robert Dyas on a Tuesday, with delivery expected the following day. However, by Thursday I received an email advising that my order would be delayed.

I called on Friday for an update and was told that it would be delivered later that day, which it was. However, this was still two days later than the original promised delivery date.

My main frustration is that I had to contact Robert Dyas myself to find out what was happening. If an order is going to be delayed, customers should be proactively kept informed rather than having to chase for an update.

The order eventually arrived, but the delivery experience was disappointing and could have been handled much better.

Basically no staff went to pick up the item. The girl couldn't leave the till untill someone came to receive her. Eventually someone came so she went to get my item and didn't come back, so I then had to wait for another member of staff to turn up to get it. 20 min of my life I won't get back

I found the right little lightbulb in among the large range of other lightbulbs.
So far so good.
But hey, Robert Dyas Chiswick, what are you doing setting aside a large space at the back of the store for a Post Office? Have none of your local staff explained about the queues that about to destroy the branch?

DX express have not delivered my barbecue .They are telling Robert Dyas the address was incorrect and it was absolutely correct.DX do not answer emails and use a dreadful non user friendly AI system.After 3 hours of calls to Robert Dyas I still dont have a delivery date.Robert Dyas staff have been very good bot cant see to get an answer from their courier.By contrast I ordered planters which arrived within 2 days with excellent service from the different courier service.
At 10.10 today I was told I would be rung back by Robert Dyas in 20 mins and I am still waiting for the call.Like Saturday with the customer service agent was on hold to DX for 45 mins we then agreed she should give up.I have called oRD on 8th,10th and 11th
