“It says, "delivered". It hasn't been. The website says, "once it's been delivered, it's no longer our responsibility".
I have a DOOR CAMERA. I know it's not been delivered.
Never again”
“If I could give no stars I would! I bought a "Grow Your Own Magazine" which offered readers free seed potatoes and a reduced cost for 3 large patio pots to grow them in. All you had to do was pay the poatage.
You had to go to the You Garden website and choose the patio potatoes and the 3 large pots. At the check out you entered the code detail in the magazine. Once you had done this you could see the free poatoes and the reduced cost pots. As a new customer you were then prompted to put a welcome code in which gave you a further 10% discount.
I received my pots a couple of days ago. No potatoes ! and I was charged the full amount for the pots ! I contacted You Garden customer service by email and the reply was "sorry but this was your fault".
You Garden are conning genuine customers of "Grow Your Own" magazine out of money. Money is tight when you are an old aged pensioner like me”
“I ordered a black adder phormium . What I received was not the same plant as I had previously owned. It was a much smaller purple phormium. Not worth the money. Very disappointing.”
“I ordered a mushroom kit in September, it arrived in good time and i was looking forward to plenty of 'home grown' mushrooms, to date i have had 4.! I rang to complain only to be told i haven't given the kit long enough to produce more mushrooms. I maybe wrong but i feel let down by the attitude of the lady on the phone and your company, i followed all the instructions to the letter so something can't be right, hence the 2 stars...”
“D & D
Tried to order a pair of Cypress trees from You Garden by phone today. Problem arose when it came to the delivery cost. On the advertising pamphlet the price was given as £6.99 but I was quoted £16.99 for the service although our post code, AB15 7LG is a normal delivery and not in Highland as stated by the sales person. No problems with other delivery companies when ordering online or by phone. Disappointed and cancelled the order. Very poor service.”
“Ordered over 2 weeks ago and Still waiting for order , keep sending emails offering money off more orders but fail to bother about existing order. Luckily I paid by credit card and am making a section 75/78 claim on that meaning I will get my money back don't use this company for anything total waste of time”
“Appalling customer service. I ordered some pansies and a perennial. After a couple of weeks where I didn’t receive any updates on dispatch I contacted the company for an update and was given a dispatch date of the end of September, some weeks after I made my order. At the beginning of October I had to contact them again to ask where my order was and was given another date of 13 October. I was informed that they would not send the order until all plants were ready. I then received the perennial on its own, and an email saying the dispatch date would be the middle of October. It’s now 18th and the information hadd so not been updated. It has felt like pulling teeth to get any information from them and I have just cancelled that part of my order. Seriously disappointed - surely keeping customers up to date shouldn’t be that hard?”
“Wished I’d read the reviews before purchasing.. ordered a toffee tree and a Jasmin plant, both came in extremely poor condition , paid over £60 for both (above garden Center prices)!, sent photos, return accepted, returned at post office, said they never received them (even though I have Amazon tracking number ), refuse to refund. Disgusting. I’ll keep fighting for my money but shabby behaviour to say the least .NEVER AGAIN! Local garden Center for me in future”
“AVOID. Unreliable, not honest and completely hideous customer service. Plants on order for months, told the whole preferable be delivered today, 26th june. Called to find out time of delivery to be told by the most belligerent and obnoxious customer service person I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with, that they hadn't been dispatched and half of the order wasnt even available. We've planned the whole landscaping of our new garden around this order and spent £1600.00. We've now cancelled the order which will take 14 days ton process!!!! Funny how it doesn't take that long to take your money when placing an order”
“Order made on 9 may didnt arrived till june 3 dispite calling the company no word from them till 2nd june then on 3rd of june the box arrived i opened it only to find two dead hanging baskets ive sent the company the photos and asked for a refund of £39 still nothing !”
“i bought a bareroot cherry bush from you 8 years ago plenty of blossom then developing fruit falls of, so far only had half a dozen pea sized fruit. very dissa pointed. will not buy again does not produce as promised.”
“I ORDERED SOME PLUG PLANTS AND WHEN THEY ARRIVE THEY WERE ALL VERY WET AND ONLY 3 SURVIVED SO I COMPLAINED AND WAS TOLD A REPLACEMENT WOULD BE SENT OUT THIS NEVER ARRIVED AND WHEN I COMPLAINED I WAS VERY RUDLY TOLD THE ORDER HAS BEEN PLACED AND YOU NEED TO WAIT 7 DAYS FOR IT TO ARRIVE, THIS IS NO GOOD IF IT IS PLUG PLANTS AS THEY NEED TO ARRIVE QUICKLY FOR THEM TO SURVIVE.

I SHALL BUY ON EBAY AS POSTAGE IS FREE IF I CANNOT FIND WHAT I WANT IN THE GARDEN CENTRE.”
“Absolutely perfect plants!
My order arrived as scheduled and in absolutely perfect condition.
The plug plants I received are by far the very best I have ever had via mail order. I cant recommend the company highly enough
I also had some fruit trees delivered last year and they too were packed beautifully and in excellent condition Great company!”
“I purchased a bush cherry tree a few years ago..Porthos I think it was called. Through my neglect it died. I contacted you garden and they replaced it. I was really thrilled..I told them it was my fault. I have given them lots of orders since and I for one am really delighted with the strong young plants I have received. Also Ioved the free bee book I got and lately free secateurs.What is to complain about ? Excellent company..highly recommend ! Rosemary Smith”
“I will never buy from this company again, plants arrived packed upside down and virtually dead, b&q clearance 50 pence plants are better than these, 20 odd pounds down the drain !!”
