Hi Leigh, thank you for your feedback.  
We're sorry you haven't had a positive shopping experience with us.  Your email was responded to the day it was received, which was the day you called us, which was 14.04.2025, the day your orignal order was placed.  Two days later you advised you'd make the payment on either the 16th or 17th, and duly confirmed payment had been made on the 17th (the day before Easter weekend), but without any reference details. Our accounts team located a payment without a reference number, from an account with a different name to yours, which we then had to check with you, to see if this was your payment.
Despite these delays and the long weekend we were able to process your order on the 24th, using the address you originally entered when placing your order and can see this has now been delivered.  While this has not been the most straightforward of experiences, and definitely not the norm, we trust you enjoy the wine and will consider shopping with us again.

Very poor service and lack of communication when my wine order never made it to its destination, due to being damaged! No offer of compensation, quite frankly appalling customer service. It’s been 2 weeks and my order has still not been delivered!
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!

Disappointing Delivery - read others review before purchasing

Made an order on 2/12/24, after 10 working days, still have not receive my parcel and I am based in Wellington. Lack of communication, I will have to email and call them for an update. Did not receive my tracking number for my first parcel that they claimed was "delivered" but got damaged. Needed the parcel as Christmas present for boss who has now finished work for the year. This is so disappointing. Do yourself a favour, read others review before purchased, buy at your own risk.

Update: Delivery did not make it because they have now 2 bottles "out of stock", was offered bottles of higher value when I called them on 23/12, but will not make it before Christmas. No communication before that. Wonder why they haven't offer me that earlier and get the delivery going? Asked for a full refund. Real disappointed and shocked with the service. What a joke.

Update: Was promised a full refund and still have not received. This is turning into a nightmare.

Hi Shu, thank you for your feedback and call this morning.
We do our best at all times to get orders out the the door as quickly as possible.  With circumstances beyond our control - high volumes of orders which caused minor dispatch delays, staff absence due to sickness - we have been challenged in all areas over the past week and a half.  
The delivery email you received was triggered by your damaged order being received back in our warehouse.  We are aware of the confusion that this email can caused, however as this particular email is controlled by New Zealand Couriers We're deeply sorry that two of the items ordered were out of stock, and were more than happy to replace these with items of a higher value.  As our stock is shipped from Auckland, we could not guarantee delivery to Wellington by tomorrow.  We also did not want to get your hopes up by advising the order would arrive tomorrow, only for it not to happen, as explained to you over during our call, and this you accepted.
As requested, we have now refunded you in full.

After 1 month I have received only part of my order. After me chasing up via several emails I have had 3 separate deliveries of parts of the order with no explanation at all about why the order was still not delivered complete. No communication that has not been instigated by me. Poor delivery tracking. I still have wine I did not order and no indication I will ever receive what I did order. This company has no business being in wine delivery IMO. Lesson learned. Never again.

STupdily made a second order before the first one was delivered. I'm still waiting on the first one, over a week later, I live in Christchurch, I understand that's the South Island but seriously, if my cat food can come from Hastings in 3 days, why cant my wine arrive in a week. the lack of communication is astounding, apart from telling you when you have paid nothing! I got no tracking email, nothing. I wonder if either of my orders will ever turn up, given some of the other reviews, I expect little if any effort to actually deliver it and this shift worker will spend ages chasing it up. Very disappointing. Expensive lesson to learn

User experience 0/10

I ordered on 10 February two boxes of RTDs. These arrived and one was wrong. I emailed using the "contact" section on the website 14 February. 26 February I had heard nothing, so I called and spoke to a very frazzled women who apologised and couldn't find my email anywhere. She said she would ship my correct product, send me a courier ticket to send the wrong product back and give me a discount on my next order but that I would need to drop the wrong product at a store in town as I am rural. I waited and didn't hear about next steps until I got an email from someone 4 March saying that they understood I "wanted to return wine" which isn't correct. The email included a return form, and instructions on how to return my incorrect product indicating if I didn't have a courier ticket that was okay and the courier would know what to do. And I waited for my correct product to arrive. Between 4 March and 11 March there were several emails to indicate I had not received the correct item yet and was still waiting. This was not sent until 13 March and a 10% discount given for compensation for waiting over a month for the correct item and needing to drive 15 min into town to drop off the wrong one. 15 March when the correct item arrived I emailed again to indicate my frustration with having to return a $24 product, having wasted my time and energy getting this far and all for 10% I will NEVER use and will be encouraging others to avoid this business. I havent received a reply to this email. 20 March I was able to drop the incorrect item into the shop in town that was given to me. I did so with no courier ticket as I never received one and was told the courier would know what to do. 21 March the courier called me to ask about the item not having a ticket and I explained this was what I was told to do. They told me they would sort this with vineonlone. Less than 3 hours later an email arrived with a courier ticket that said it would be picked up FROM MY HOUSE. Saving me a trip into town. This was obviously only instigated by the courier calling them. I will not be purchasing again, and will be telling anyone who will listen how it took me a month and a half to solve a $24 problem. Wish I had never told them my order was wrong and just kept the wrong item it would have been easier than performing unpaid work for them. Disgusting.

Hi Brooke,  thank you for your feedback.  Excellent service is very important to us, and we can see we have failed on this occasion, for which we are deeply sorry.  If a customer in non-urban or rural, our couriers require that anything that is being returned, is dropped off at their local drop point.  This is because a third party service is used to deliver the freight from the New Zealand Courier depot to a rural address, this we have no control over.  The driver you encountered was obviously going above and beyond the Company's normal practice and we have not encountered this particular scenario before.  The discount you were offered, was done so by way of honest apology Brooke, and we appreciate the frustration you have experienced.

on time and easy. My only comment for the Platinum wine was I didn't know what wine I was receiving from the comm's I received. Unless I missed something.

System Gremlins…

There is nothing wrong with the product or delivery system. What rankles is that is an automatically generated subscription order and for some reason it was generated twice. that then took some administration to get one order cancelled and refunded. Now I see the same has happened with this review request, generated twice. There is a gremlin in the system and I am getting peeved.
