Damaged outer packaging
The outer cardboard packaging was badly damaged, but luckily the inner boxes were mildly scuffed at the edges.

Antwoord van Macfarlane Packaging
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for taking the time to review us.
We're sorry to hear the outer packaging for your order arrived in that condition. That's usually a sign it's had a rough time in transit, so while it's good to hear the inner boxes came through with only minor scuffing, it's certainly not the standard we want your delivery to arrive in.
We'd really like the chance to look into this for you. If you could get in touch with our Customer Care team at customercare@macfarlanepackaging.com or on 0800 2 88 88 22, quoting your order number, we'll see what we can do to put it right and make sure it's fed back to help prevent it happening again.
Thanks again for letting us know.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team

Order placed on 4th August
I placed an order on 4th August. Estimated delivery was 3-5 working days, it is now 8 days and I have received no communication from the company whatsoever.
Macfarlane was a personal recommendation but I will be suggesting people use anyone but Macfarlane unless I have an update & apology

Hi Nick,
Thank you for your feedback. We're very sorry this has been your experience. Going this long without a word from us simply isn't good enough, particularly when you'd chosen us on a personal recommendation. We completely understand the frustration.
One of our team has since spoken with you and followed up by email: your postal tubes are being booked into stock and we've asked the warehouse to prioritise dispatching your order. You also made a fair point about stock visibility at the point of ordering and our web team is looking into clearer communication on availability, so this is less likely to catch anyone out in future.
We'd genuinely like the chance to put this right and win back your recommendation. If there's anything else you need, please reply to that email or call us on 0800 2 88 88 22.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team

Ordered on the 7th of August, not until the 11th did I get any indication my order would not be fulfilled due to a lack of stock.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for your feedback. We're very sorry this has been your experience and you're quite right to flag this.
When items are out of stock or on backorder, you should hear from us within 48 hours of placing your order. On this occasion we didn't meet that standard. Waiting until the 11th to learn your order couldn't be fulfilled isn't the experience we want to give and we apologise for the lack of communication.
One of our team has since been in touch directly with an update on the postal tubes and an in-stock alternative for the labels, so we can get your order moving as quickly as possible. Please reply to that email or call us on 0800 2 88 88 22 and we'll sort it out for you.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team

Hi Bill,
Thanks for getting in touch, and we're sorry for the concern here - waiting on an order you're expecting is never a good feeling.
Having looked into this, our records show the order was delivered on 3rd August and left in a safe place, which is within the 3–5 working day delivery window for your order. One of our team has already reached out to you directly with the delivery confirmation and the details of where it was left, so please do check there in the first instance.
If it isn't where we've indicated, or anything doesn't look right, please reply to that email or call us on 0800 2 88 88 22 and we'll get it sorted for you right away.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team

you sent the wrong polythene bags and a week later I am still waiting to hear when the correct ones will be sent & the wrong ones collected for return totally unacceptable i needed them today have to improvise

Antwoord van Macfarlane Packaging
Hi Steven,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
We're sorry this hasn't been an ideal experience for you. Receiving the wrong bags is frustrating enough, but being left waiting a week for an update on the correct ones and the collection is not good enough, especially when you needed them for a specific day.
We understand our Online Customer Care team has now been in touch by email with two options: collecting the incorrect bags and arranging a full refund, or sending a replacement in the next available size. We want to get this put right in whichever way works best for you.
If it's easier to talk it through, please call us on 0800 2 88 88 22.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team
A good company and easy to order
Easy to use website to find what you want to order. Prices were good but I thought the delivery charge was quite high at £10.99 + VAT but I think they still deserve 5 Stars. I only ordered a few rolls of Fragile stickers. We normally click & collect but didn't have time to do it this time. Ordered on a Friday and delivered on the following Tuesday which I thought was good as well. All in all a great company!

Hi Colin,
Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear your order was delayed and understand how frustrating this must have been.
Your order was dispatched promptly from our side, but unfortunately there was an issue during the courier delivery process which meant the goods did not arrive as expected. As soon as this was brought to our attention, our Onlien Customer Care Team contacted the courier to investigate and kept you updated on the progress.
To avoid any further delay, we have arranged a free replacement order for you, which has now been dispatched. Our team will also reach out to ensure the replacement delivery has arrived with you in the coming days.
We’re sorry again for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team

Hi Malcolm,
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We're very sorry you had this experience.
When our products are shipped via courier, you should get system-generated emails letting you know when items have been dispatched and when they're out for delivery. We're investigating why this hasn't happened in your case. The only exception is when this is on a pallet, which uses a different delivery service.
We've asked the Online Customer Care team to get in touch with you to ensure delivery is rearranged.
We hope you'll consider giving us another chance.
Best wishes,
The Macfarlane Packaging Team
