Popped into the Plymouth store to see if I could get some individual Epsom inks. Although they didn't have what I wanted, the assistant checked online and found where I could get them. Very helpful.... See more

Ryman’s Shandwick Place Edinburgh

Claire at Ryman’s Shandwick Place branch in Edinburgh couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly in taking time to show me how to use the cewe machine to print photos from my i-Phone which was quite beyond me. She then kindly trimmed them to size using a guillotine which I very much appreciated. The standard of customer service and willingness to assist was quite outstanding and speaks very well of Ryman’s

Ive been using Ryman romford for years and regular.
I buy my printer inks and stationary from there all the time. But what is really starting to give me the ick is, the constant preasure to look at and purchase the silly childish pens on display at the till!
First, i have eyes, i can see the full display of toot infront of me, if i wanted any of it, i would buy it without the constant need to be prompted.
Im in my 70s, why would i want a pen that looks like a dog? Im not in junior school.

Good Afternoon Jenny.

I hope you are well today.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us here at Ryman.

We really appreciate your continued custom and are pleased to hear that you have been shopping regularly with our Romford store for many years, particularly for your printer inks and stationery.

I am sorry to hear that you have found the repeated prompts to purchase products displayed at the till frustrating. We understand that customers have different preferences and appreciate your point that the products are already clearly visible and that you would be happy to ask about or purchase anything that interests you.

Your comments regarding the way these products are promoted at the till will be shared with the relevant store team. We appreciate that not every product or promotional approach will appeal to every customer and your feedback is helpful in reminding us of the importance of ensuring customers feel comfortable when shopping with us.

Thank you again for taking the time to provide your honest feedback and most importantly, for your continued support of Ryman. We hope to continue welcoming you into our Romford store and providing you with the products and service you have come to expect from us.

Have a good day!

Fantastic shop and service from Alison!

Visited Lancaster branch to get back to school supplies, the shop itself was well stocked with plenty of options and great deals. Alison was on hand to offer support to any questions that I asked and went above and beyond to help me get everything that I needed. Fantastic service and shop!!

Good Morning Robert.

I hope you are well today.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us here at Ryman.

We are very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how disappointing it must have been to realise you had been sold the incorrect printer ink after the packaging had already been opened.

We always aim to provide the correct advice and products for our customers, so we are sorry if this was not your experience on this occasion.

If you still require any assistance, or if you would like us to look into this further, please pop back into your local store. Our colleagues will be happy to review what happened, check the printer and cartridge compatibility with you and provide any support they can.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much better experience in the future.

Have a good day!

The name tags arrived very quickly…

The name tags arrived very quickly which was appreciated as I had a time limit to get the name badges made. However, on assembly the safety pin of the cage was sitting randomly onto the back of the plastic wallet and so sometimes it is high up and sometimes low down the badge. I hope this does not cause a problem for the wearer at the event.

In the Hereford branch yesterday trying to print photographs. My phone wouldn't connect to the machine and so the Manager, Lyn and Supervisor, Tracey offered to help. The machine was still difficult BUT Tracey was BRILLIANT. Whilst Lyn dealt with other customers Tracey sorted out my pictures with endless patience. Highly recommend these staff!

Theo Paphitis please note; UNACCEPTABLE NOISY RYMANS DELIVERIES

Would someone at Head Office please request of their deliverymen to remember that there are resident neighbours in earshot of the RYMANS they are delivering to, and making totally unnecessary NOISE, banging & crashing tailplates & palletts is unsocial & made all the more unacceptable on hot summer evenings with windows open and children sleeping…. or trying to!

Please also NOTE.. owner Theo Paphitis, as our residents would hope you too will insist on your deliveries being made as quietly as possible which i can assure you that your delivery to Kings Road SW3 at 9.00pm 3 Aug this evening was NOT…

Many thanks, a local resident with unnecessarily disturbed children…
