Beware !!

The goods arrived on time , but because I was busy refurbishing my bathroom, put them down to one side in the original packaging and forgot about them until I needed them. When I open the goods I found that all 4 pieces I ordered where scratched and marked all the down the 2400mm length, obviously I informed plastic supplies direct, but because I didn’t inform them within 48hrs they weren’t interested in refund or replacement,10 days late that was obviously my fault but that is no excuse for them to supply substandard goods which no one would buy off the shelf, obviously they don’t have any type of quality control , so online buyers beware!! If the goods had been damaged in transit there would have been tell tale signs on the packaging which would have alerted me to look . The packaging was not damaged in any way. It was only when I did unwrap them that the goods that I was disappointed with the scuffing and scratches. It looked to me as if they were wrapped and packaged in that condition!

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you are frustrated and have left us a 1 star review. Your order was bubble-wrapped and shrink-wrapped and the products were in perfect condition when they were sent, if they had been damaged in transit we expect you would have immediately checked them which was not the case. The terms and conditions which you agreed to when placing your order states that any damages need to be notified to us within 48 hours, you notified us 10 days after delivery. This is ensure that reports of damages are genuinely caused in transit and not the result of being left lying around on-site after your order was delivered.

Incorrect description on website

Ordered several soil pipe fittings, including a strap boss fitting that was advertised as having a nut and bolt fixing. When it arrived, it didn’t include them. I contacted the company and was told I could return the item, but I’d have to pay return postage — despite the incorrect product description being their mistake. After a few emails, they said they were escalating the issue to head office, but I never heard back. Poor customer service and no accountability. Now out of pocket and still need to find the correct fitting elsewhere.

Hi Alan,
We sent you a code to print out you FREE RETURN LABEL on the Friday, July 11, 2025 at 11:11:04 AM, 5 days before you wrote this review.

The full story...
We explained that the picture for the product was correct but the "nut and bolt" mentioned in the description which was a typo and we thanked you for spotting it.
You then argued that you wanted the nut and bolt, we replied explaining that a nut and bolt would not work with this product.
You asked for a returns label, and we sent you a code for your FREE RETURN (email was sent to you Friday, July 11, 2025 11:11:04 AM)
We also offered to send you a nut and bolt if you really wanted one, even though it would be useless for this product as we had explained to you.
You then sent another email and demanded a free return and were rude towards the staff trying to help you.
We re-iterate, the returns link we have sent you is for FREE RETURN POSTAGE and we will issue you with a FULL REFUND once the item arrives back with us.
Not sure what more we could have done, and don't think leaving us 1-star reviews on both Trustpilot and Google is justified.

incorrect sizing advertised and doesn’t exist apparently

I ordered end caps for my worktop as they had the raw edge. I ordered 600mm by 30mm as that’s the length I needed and when they arrived they were 630mm in length leaving a huge piece of metal sticking out. When I called them to let them know I had got the wrong size and can this be returned and replaced they advised they don’t actually sell 600mm they are 630mm even though they advertise them as 600mm and was then advised I need to saw the end off. Just to also mention there is no mention of having to do this, or that the size isn’t correct or any additional work needs done. Also very unhelpful on the phone and basically told me they couldn’t help me so I’m now left with a raw worktop. I really would shop around and find your items at a different store.

We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the product you have received. This was explained to you on the phone and we confirmed with you that To have an edge trim exactly 600mm you would need to purchase this in either a left handed or right handed product which is not what you ordered. The product you ordered is universal product to go on a left or right hand side of a worktop by simply turning over and trimming down to 600mm.

Plastic Supplies Direct are happy to send damaged products

I ordered Freefoam Fascia covers from this company. What turned up can only be described as damaged and they had been cut roughly. I am really disappointed by this company and how they have treated me. I will now have to go out my way to get a new supplier. Definitely haven’t been aggressive, the only person who has, is the chap who runs this company.

The customer purchased the wrong product which their photos have confirmed and we offered a return in every correspondence with them. However they were aggressive and blamed us each time for their mistake, firstly accusing us of selling fake products, now altering their review to say they are damaged. We are always here to answer any query prior to ordering for all customers if they are not sure on what product to purchase for their needs.

VIP treatment for a small order

I only ordered a small item to replace a damaged one and they shipped it the same day by Royal Mail 48 tracked. On arrival the item was the wrong type and they shipped a replacement the same day I notified them. If this is the service I got for a small item I'm sure it will be just as good for bigger orders. Brilliant!

Gutter replacement parts.

Found their website really helpful to identify the parts I needed to repair a gutter damaged in the recent high winds. Prices were reasonable and good standard delivery time. Would therefore highly recommend.

Parts damaged in delivery

The parts were exactly what I ordered.
Competitively priced.
Downfall was the packaging as one of the plastic items was brocken in transit, they needed to be wrapped in bubble pack to protect them and not just pushed into a jiffy bag.
For the price it was not worth the hassle of getting a replacement, as a bit of plastic glue solved the problem, now just hope it holds.

Hi Stefan,
We are sorry to hear that one of your items was damaged in transit. You did not report this to us, if you would have done, we would have sent you a replacement. We are glad you managed to solve the problem yourself with a bit of glue. We have never had an issue with the parts you ordered being broken before, however, we will speak to the packing team and review our packing of these items. Many thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Hi Sabbirahmad,
The item you ordered was a 50mm Push-Fit coupler. The fact you say the coupler was too big, suggests that you are trying to connect it to something other than a 50mm push-fit pipe? If you had have contacted us we could have offered you advice prior to you placing your order, if you contact us, we will be glad to arrange a return. Thank you.
