Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback!

We're really sorry to hear that you've been having some issues with your recent deliveries.

We aim to make things as easy and convenient as possible for our customers, so it's disappointing to hear that this wasn't the case here.

Following on from our conversation yesterday, we can confirm that we have taken further action with the courier to ensure that your deliveries arrive directly to you and are not delivered to another building on your site. We will continue to communicate with you to ensure you're completely satisfied with the service received both from IBC Simply and the couriers we use moving forward.

Once again, we're so sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Best wishes,

It took a very long time to get the stock initially. We chased the delivery and was supplied with a consignment number along with my name signing for delivery. I spent a long time looking for the stock thinking that I put it up somewhere without realising. When I asked IBC to check with their courier service, they came back to me saying that they never sent the stock in the first place which was not only an utter waste of company time, but my time also.
Though we will be continuing to do business with you as our customers like your products, this was not a very good first impression.

Rest assured, we will look in to what went wrong here and identify where we could have done better, to ensure that something similar doesn't happen in future. Further to this, one of the team will reach out to you today to discuss this matter further.
