  4. J K Mcghee –

    Product:
    Service: The website needs to reflect the pricing better I.e. The drop down should price per weight band that you sell
    Vendor response: I am puzzled. Each product page does, have a drop-down menu showing the packing combinations for that tea such as 125g or 250g, packet or tin caddy.

  12. Mr A Hooker –

    Service: Prompt and sufficient order processing

  13. Derek Smith –

    Product: A pleasant, light. Not quite as much flavour as my ideal Sri Lankan OP would have.
    Service: I like the range of teas and speed of service. I have 2 comments about the website:-
    1. ordering is a slow process. Price is a factor in what I order but I only find the price once I’ve clicked all the way through to the product. It would be useful to have that information upfront.
    2. I have been trying to find a way to use a different delivery address but haven’t been able to find it.
    Vendor response: Thank you for your constructive comments.
    1. On 21st February we introduced various changes to our shopping basket and checkout which we hope will make shopping quicker and easier. We realise that having the price with the tea details can be inconvenient but many customers prefer to have all the tea details on a single page.
    2. If you wish to ship to an address other than your billing address please tick the box ‘deliver to a different address’.
    I hope this helps.

  15. Katherine Ellis –

    Product: I do love this Ceylon Dimbula, hence I ordered lots!
    Service: Arrived next day.

  16. B.S.Mason –

    Product: My mark is related to this order. However, I have tried their Dimbula before, found it to be very good & is the reason for my new order.
    Service: My first contact was by telephone, the staff povided excellent assistance. Their shipping however lets them down.
    Vendor response: Your order placed on 30.12.14 was despatched to France on 2.1.15. We note your comments made on 10.1.15 however there is undoubtedly much mail in the system from the festive season so overseas delivery may well be somewhat slower than would be expected.
