I was given some sample gold tea teabags at this years chatworths country show. It was a good move by Ringtons as we are now a regular customer and just wouldn't dream of buying anything else. we order online and delivery usually comes in around 3 days. really have renewed our love of tea and everybody that comes over comments on what a nice cuppa it is

Bullying behaviour
Salesmen keep turning up every week saying we've made an order and therefore need to pay them but we've done no such thing! I was given a leaflet by a salesman and that was that. You can't bully your way into getting new customers, it's disgusting.
Edit: I don't want to call to complain as I'm worried it will cause further problems as they know where I live and might know who's complaining. They've started coming twice a week now, it's horrible.

I've been a Ringtons customer for many years because their products are second to none. I've recently started to order my items from them directly online, which is more convenient for me rather than the door-to-door service. The items are sent out promptly and arrive on time. I can't praise them highly enough.

Excellent service
Excellent service, & prompt delivery. I learned that Ringtons were doing a new selection of teas, including mint, & camomile. I have tried them, & they are absolutely delicious. Great if you want a little break from caffeine.

Disappointing …
I have been placing orders for many years without problem. I hope my most recent was a one off as at least two packets of ginger biscuits were completely smashed. Not like Ringtons at all.

Reply from Ringtons Ltd
We're so sorry to hear this - please can you send an email to tea@ringtons.co.uk with photographs of the smashed biscuits so we can look at putting things right for you? Please include your order reference and a brief description on the email.
A really nice cup of tea.
Had a tea and biscuit hamper for Christmas from my brother,enjoyed the gold label tea so much i purchased some more.
