Terrible customer service
My new pole and many other accessories delivered ok, slightly annoyed as it states clearly you need to be at home to sign for it but it was just handed to me, no signature asked for. When ordering a new pole you have the option to purchase a free or discounted brush. I accidentally selected the wrong brush which I emailed them about and asked if I could return the brush I didn't want and could I pay the difference for the one I wanted and fully expected to pay for any postage costs. Basically I was told no, they don't do exchanges, the brush was free anyway. But I could return the complete order, pole included, which would be refunded. Then I could place a new order have another pole delivered with all the accessories and with the brush I wanted. This is ludicrous, it meant I would have spend another £400 to start with, pay more to send my total order back, rather than just a brush and then wait until a refund was processed. I requested a phone call from Gardinerpolesystems which did occur, but after checking and ringing me back, they couldn't help, instead it was suggested I sell the brush on Ebay and buy another brush from them at full price. As a loyal customer this being my 8th pole from them I was disgusted at their level of customer care, there was none! How easy it should have been to return one brush, deliver the one I meant to order, charge any difference including postage and process the necessary administration.
