I read bad reviews before ordering

I read reviews before ordering, majority of people says what delivery takes ages and no communication.

But it’s not true! My order was fulfilled next day and parcel arrived within 4-5 days by standard delivery.
Packaging is outstanding too!

Good day,

We are sorry for this bad experience.

You have ordered on the 22nd of January and we have dispatched your order on the 24th, as soon as we received customs approval (this avoid customs to have to pay for any import taxes, as we take them in charge for you).

As you have also contacted us during the weekend, we have send you the tracking informations this morning immediately at 9am and were happy to inform you that the parcel was out for delivery.

So the delivery only took 3 business days, which is a normal time frame for express delivery from Germany to the UK indeed.

Please let us know, if we can help any further, as we have already contacted your via email a few hours ago.

Kind regards,
Urban Drinks

Ordered but not acknowledgment or bottle

I have ordered a bottle of Slipknot No.9 Whisky on the 14th December as a guest through the PayPal pay option. Although I have received a confirmation from PayPal that the payment had been taken and confirming my information - including Email and Delivery Address - I haven't received any confirmation from Urban Drinks UK and no Bottle has arrived all these days later. I sent an email on the 23rd but haven't received any reply. the Facebook and Twitter pages seem to have not been uploaded since 2020, so I am trying to find an response from this .

Order not acknowledged or fulfilled

I made an order for a bottle of Jack Daniels master distiller No.6 and the required delivery fee on the 16th December as a guest. I unfortunately closed the page before realising that I had not received an email acknowledging my order, so I have no order number and can't track the order. However the payment has been taken from my account and still there has been no emails from either Urban Drinks UK or Fed Ex. I have submitted an enquiry email re this matter and still heard nothing. So I have no idea whether my order will be fulfilled or not. Disappointing as was due to be a Christmas gift and I am potentially out of pocket to the sum of £58.80.....

As a result of this review I was contacted within 2 days regarding my order and assured it was being processed.
They did ask me why I had not contacted via the help link or email on the UK website and I explained the link wouldn't work and my email went unanswered.
In the communications regarding my order which they confirmed, I did request an confirmation email with my order number and tracking information but this never happened.
However today I have received my bottle which was really well packaged to ensure no damage to bottle or box.
Thank you Urban Drinks UK for my product and for responding to my review and direct emails.
Just a shame I had to resort to Trustpilot as I was unable to communicate with you via your site
