Mercuro Reviews 40

Ingrid kept me up to date with the delivery schedule even when changes had to be made.

Nice furniture, I would use this company again.

I can keep the item until January to avoid inconvenience to myself which is great and suits me perfectly. Absolutely great service....Thanks especially to Ingrid who I have dealt with on a couple of occassions.

I ordered £1000 of furniture from Mercuro six weeks ago. Although (before payment) their customer service was fine, I have heard nothing since placing the order - despite repeated attempts to contact the company through their website by email and by phone. Having done some research (which I should have done before purchasing) it seems they have set up in various guises over the last several years and that I am by far not the only one who has experienced difficulties.

My advice would be to spend a little more and buy your furniture from someone reputable. I now have to go through the lengthy procedure of trying to reclaim my money via my credit card provider.

I tried to buy a table from these guys, they took my money (nearly £600), didn't deliver anything, when I emailed about it, no reply, when I called, no reply, eventually someone responded to my email and said they were dealing with it. Again, disappeared off the radar. Ended up having to claim against them on my credit card and eventually my bank refunded the money and reversed the transaction.

I ordered a Kitchen Dresser back in August 2012, They took my £602 immediatly and told me my item would be in stock with in 6 weeks.

6 weeks came and went and nothing was heard, I emailed customer services they had no contact number, I recieved a very polite email from an Indgrid, who assuered me if I watined a few more days delivery would be arranged.

I had over 20 emails from Ingrid between August and December with all manor of excuses. when I finally gave up and asked for a refund.

I was told it would take 10 working days for it to be processed. 10 working days later still no money. Ingrid informed me SagePay had failed to process the refund and I should contact my bank to get the money back from her company.

I phoned SagePay who told me they had suspended Mercuros account and to go through my bank.

I then went back to their website which was no longer live.

I contacted my bank and luckilly I had kept every email between myself and Ingrid and thankfully NatWest were able to recoup my £602 last week.

Believe me this is not an honest company their address is a PO Box their is no office in Camden.

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!

I ORDERED FURNITURE ON THE 7TH OF JUNE - WAS GIVEN LOADS OF EXCUSES FOR NON DELIVERY RIGHT UP TO SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR 2012 SO I CANCELLED THE WHOLE ORDER - THEN HAD A TERRIBLE TIME TRYING TO GET MY REFUND - I HAVE NOW RECEIVED FULL REFUND AT THE END OF NOVEMBER 2012

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND MERCURO TO ANYONE!!

Paid my money back in September and was promised the furniture in 6-10 weeks. Kept in touch with them through that time and received re-assurances that the furniture was on its way. Now that the 10 weeks are up I am informed by their customer services that they cannot supply and cannot provide a refund.

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING!

We ordered a chest of drawers and was told immediately that this item was no longer available. After two and a half months they still have not refunded our money. I complained to ISIS who have now de-registered them. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

This review site does not feature on their website. The 5 star reviews on their website are from a different review company which customers are not directed to. I am now trying to reclaim money via VISA otherwise will start taking legal action.

I ordered an item of furniture on 17th July 2012 with a 6 week delivery time, it's now 9th November and I am still awaiting delivery! No correspondence from Mercuro unless initiated by me. If your happy to wait until the Queens Platinum Jubilee for your furniture, fine, if not I'd shop somewhere else.

Oh dear, oh dear,

After more emails from myself, Mercuro have told me that my furniture was ‘damaged’ by their carriers! They offered to order me a new one but given their unrealistic delivery times I have cancelled my order and am awaiting a refund.
The theme that runs through most of these reviews is that Mercuro blame lots of other parties for the delays and NEVER accept any responsibility themselves.
Also NO offer of compensation despite holding my money since July!

After placing and paying for an order of £318.00 on September 18th 2012, I was informed that the item was out of stock for a few weeks so I decided to cancel my order and was assured that the money would be refunded in a few working days. 47 days have passed, several emails chasing payment and I still have not received any refund.
I would not shop here again.

Not only were they late with their estimated delivery date (6-10 weeks) - they went 3 weeks over estimate and still could not tell me when my order would arrive.
When I cancelled they withheld 20% of the cost and I had no redress.
All in all appears to be a very dodgy way of running a company.
Never again!

Made an order over a month ago. Was immediately informed that the items were out of stock but that they would be in stock within 1 to 2 weeks, so I made the order - mistake! They actually arrived in stock after 3 weeks. I was then told the courier would contact me and delivery would be made within 7 days.....I'm still waiting having heard nothing from the courier. I've since sent 2 emails to Mercuro's Customer Service Dept. asking them to expedite delivery because of the delay....buy they haven't even bothered to reply. I can live with delays - these things happen. All I ask is that the Customer Service Dept keeps me updated and does everything it can to sort things out. This is where Mercuro are so bad...when it's gets difficult they just ignore you! If you read the other reviews you'll see this is a recurring theme for them. Are the items good quality? No idea! Maybe one day they'll arrive - or indeed their (so-called) Customer Service Dept might even lower themselves to get them delivered for me - a customer whose money they've had for over a month!

.....Well, further to my above message - another week has now gone by! Still absolutely nothing from Mercuro's courier; absolutely nothing from Mercuro; absolutely no response from their so-called Customer Service Dept....and obviously still no items. I'll keep you all posted and sincerely hope anyone reading this review thinks seriously hard before ordering something from these people!

It was bad enough that it was only AFTER I placed my order and they took the money off my card that they told me my item was not in stock.. But now it's five weeks later and still no sign of my goods and no reply to my email asking for an update.
To be fair I was asked if I was prepared to wait but was misled into thinking it would only be 2-3 weeks before the item was in stock.
About to try and cancel my order. Hope I can get my money back.

I live just outside Aberdeen and for some reason they want to class my address as Highlands and Islands and charge me a delivery surcharge of £50. Most internet based companies do not do this - so I am cancelling my order and going with another comany that treats customers fairly and only charges them the real cost of delivery.

Had to wait longer then first stated but was kept up to date by email.
Very happy with my sideboard when it arrived, delivery all went to plan and had no problems. Driver very helpfull unpacking.

Do not buy from these people, the delivery estimates are not accurate, and you can only email them to get any information which means that they can (and will) just ignore you if they want to. We have bought 3 items from them, in two separate transactions, the first was late and we had a bit of grief getting any information out of mercuro, but because of the price we tried a year later to buy some other items. We ordered these in January, we're told there would be a small delay, but would have both items by the end of march. One item has finally arrived (at least a month late), but it is now June and I am still having to chase them for the second item. My advice is to pay a bit more but get decent service by going elsewhere!

Really love the product and the price was great - however a 3 month wait was way too much and only being able to email was infuriating. Clearly customer services is manned by a non British person as the written english was terrible!!!! When the product turned up after 3 months it was in good condition and I have no complaints. Although I was really worried I had ordered a high value item from a dodgy site and would never receive it!!!!!!

Not only did I have to wait over 10 weeks for my order when I got it it was the wrong product, now they refuse to call me insisting on email contact which is just so slow and laborious, and still have no idea when I will get the right item. Disappointed

I order a gate leg table to be delivered to Belfast. Four weeks later I was told I had to pay £54.20 extra to deliver the table to Northern Ireland even though a delivery address had been given at time of ordering. The price of the table plus delivery charges were taken at the time of ordering but as yet one week after cancelling the table the money has not been reinstated on the card. This is no way to do business for any firm.

Ordered furniture in July 2011 and finally cancelled in December 2011, the option they gave me, as they were unable to confirm if and when furniture would arrive. They have had full payment since July and despite several emails promising to refund my money they have not and now will not even respond to my emails. Use them at your own risk but you have been warned!
