Don't get me wrong with 3 stars, I love the concept of the product but I have bought quite a few of these and I feel they need to be sturdier, they break/perish quickly and I just feel for the price... See more

Very slow delivery even when paid for express..

I ordered some bottle holders over 6 working days ago and paid extra for express delivery 1-2 working days. I have emailed them twice and also tried to contact them via online chat but no answer. I have the tracking information and it doesn't look like it will be here for a few days still. Really annoyed that I paid £5.50 for express delivery and it's currently slower than their standard delivery times and they are not getting back to me!

Their reply states that they have refunded me for the express delivery. This was offered to me, accepted but never completed.

Hi Laura,

We’re really sorry to hear about the trouble you had with your order and that your emails went unanswered for a while. Unfortunately, we had an unexpected email issue around that time, which caused us to miss a few messages, including yours, and we’re truly sorry for the frustration that caused.

Your order was dispatched within our 1–5 working day window, but it looks like the courier experienced a delay in transit, which was out of our hands. We completely understand how disappointing that must’ve been, especially after paying for express delivery — which is why we refunded your delivery fee as soon as we became aware of the issue.

We’re really glad to hear you liked the product in the end! If you need any more help at all, please don’t hesitate to drop us an email at hello@buttercuppetproducts.co.uk, we’re always happy to help.

Best wishes,
The Buttercup Pet Products Team 🌼

poor customer service

i've ordered from buttercups pets a few times in the past and really like their products but the level of customer service i have experienced this time isn't good enough! i placed and order on the 4th june and paid express delivery which wasn't despatched untill the folllowing monday which was the 9th june i had already sent a message on the monday through the website to find out when my order would be being sent out i had no reply but at least it had been despatched, the tracking then didn't change from 9 pm on the monday night so on the wednesday i emailed to ask them what was happening as i wasn't getting any help from evri, i did get a reply to which was said that the products will be re sent out i will get a new tracking link if the original one cant be used, i had emailed back saying that was fine and would appreciate that fast
forward to today no reply from the company and no replacements have been sent out, evri have finally got intouch to say the product is missing, i understand small business are busy but it is no excuse for such low level of service,

Hey Chelsie,

Many thanks for being a repeat customer! We're so sorry to hear about the bad experience you had the second time around—it seems something, somewhere, went really wrong.

After taking a look at this, we can see there were numerous attempts to reach out to you to get this sorted, but unfortunately, we never heard back. Please note this isn't to say you ever received those emails, but we just wanted to make it clear that we did try!

We also noticed a bank chargeback on the order, which means the case is then in the hands of the bank and we're unable to take further action. That's why we weren’t able to send out replacements in the end—we couldn’t get in touch, and the chargeback process limits what we can do on our end.

That said, we'd still love to make this right. As a gesture of goodwill—and we completely understand if you'd rather not take us up on it—we’d be happy to send out your original order free of charge.

Just drop us a message at our alternate email address: info@buttercuppetproducts.co.uk, and we’ll get that sorted for you!

Warm wishes,
The Buttercup Team 🌼
