Review of Dunelm

Review of Photobox


Rated 4 out of 5 stars

High quality product, tricky website

The product quality is high, and I have several of the canvas prints myself as well as having given some as presents. Delivery is usually prompt and secure.
The website, however, I find quite difficult to use. Uploading pictures seems a bit hit-and-miss: sometimes it seems to work fine but sometimes I have to make several attempts. The most annoying thing, however, is that you can think you're ordering one size of product and the website converts it to a different size without warning. Once I was aware that this was happening I looked out for it, and recently had to make three attempts, exiting the website completely between each, to ensure that the product I was checking out was what I thought it was. You have to stay very alert throughout the process.

Review of Spire Healthcare


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I have been given my life back.

I attended for a total hip replacement, and could not have received better care than I did at Spire London East.
Unhurried, efficient and discreetly attentive, all staff treated me with dignity as an individual.
Mr Lamba's surgery has already (6 days on) almost liberated me from painkillers.

Review of Hayloft


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Good range and value for money

I have ordered several plants from Hayloft in recent months. They arrive very promptly, well packed and in good condition.
The plants tend to be quite young - more so than you would find in a garden centre - but in practice this means that they establish more quickly, as well as being cheaper.
Hayloft offers varieties that are difficult to find elsewhere, and I shall definitely be ordering from them again as I believe they offer good value for money.

Swift, accurate and efficient service

All stages of the process went smoothly and efficiently, especially as my GP responded very quickly to the request. I was kept updated at every stage, and the accurate order was delivered well within the predicted timescale.

Review of Yorkshirehandmadepies


Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Succulent, tasty venison pies

Well filled as always, the venison pies had just the right balance of gaminess with sweetness from the Yarm sloe gin. There was one very tough piece of meat but they were generally succulent and tasty.

Thank you so much for your lovely review and your support! We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the venison pies and appreciated the balance of flavours, the Yarm sloe gin is definitely a favourite of ours too.
We’re sorry to hear one piece of meat was a bit tough, that’s not what we aim for, so we’ll keep an eye on that with our butchery team.
Thanks again for your feedback, it really helps us keep improving!

Review of AXS UK


Rated 3 out of 5 stars

A fraught experience, but I got there in the end!

I wanted to buy the 'Family Offer' for Gladiators at the O2, but seats were disappearing as I was trying to work out how to use the site.
I couldn't find a 'Family Offer' option anywhere, and the question bot couldn't help me. In the end I just booked four tickets together (not sure how - swiping them?) and accepted I'd have to pay a non-discounted price. However, when I checked out, it was converted to a Family ticket. This was a great relief, but my experience would have been a lot less fraught if the procedure had been clearer from the start.

Review of J Parkers (Retail)


Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Ordering late in the season meant plants were not very strong.

I ordered some Helichrysum plugs which arrived quite quickly, but they were not particularly strong and two of the six have died. Admittedly, I ordered rather late in the season ( not being able to find any locally) so all the best ones had probably gone.

Review of Triodos Bank UK


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Not only the most ethical bank, but also very efficient.

For only £3 per month, I can be sure that I am using the most ethical bank available in the UK. This is really important to me, because where we keep our money is one of the most critical effects we have, on society, environment and the future of the planet.
As a bonus, on the rare occasions when I have needed to contact customer services they have been unhurried and most helpful. The app is easy to use.

Review of Pharmacy2U Ltd


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Prompt delivery, accurate prescribing

With walking made painful by hip arthritis, it is such a relief to get prescriptions delivered by Pharmacy2U.
So far, this has happened through GP consultations, and the delivery has been prompt and accurate.
I have yet to order repeat prescriptions online, but am confident that this process will be equally reliable.

Prompt and accurate delivery

On this occasion, my medication was ordered by my GP during a consultation, so I have no experience yet of ordering online, but the delivery itself was prompt and accurate.

Review of Anytime Fitness UK


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Anytime Fitness Bexleyheath is helping me manage my arthritis and boosting my feeling of wellbeing.

I've been made to feel welcome at Anytime Fitness, by both the staff and other customers.
Adam, who has been doing my induction, is thorough in explaining how to use all the machines to achieve effective results (I have a health referral for arthritis), and we add new exercises in at a pace that is easy to accommodate.
I am enjoying the (?) circuit class on Tuesdays, where the activities can be modified to my particular circumstances but are still sufficiently demanding.
Other users of the gym are friendly and encouraging, and have helped me out when I have needed assistance or information.
I think this is going to help me get back to a level of fitness I haven't enjoyed for some years. I am already feeling much less stiff than I was. By itself I do not expect it to eliminate the arthritis pain, but it will help me manage it and boost my general feeling of wellbeing.

Healthy plants, carefully packaged, promptly delivered.

As a previous customer, I recently ordered a couple of Dierama plants from Westcountry Nurseries. They arrived promptly, carefully packed in sustainable materials, labelled, and in good condition. They are healthy plants and I anticipate they will do well.
