"Horrific customer service "

Horrific customer service

Placed an order upon checking out and using Apple ID to pay
I received a confirmation that my order was twice the cost that was displayed previously
I contacted customer service and they refused to cancel the order or provide a refund

Their excuse was that it takes them 3 days to reply to emails and that we are not their only customer

"Tea But Scant Sympathy"

First British Essentials order 10 Oct. Order confirmation email received immediately.
Second British Essentials order 13 Oct.  Order confirmation email received immediately.
And then . . . complete silence.  I emailed on 21 Oct requesting an update about my orders.  No response.  I emailed twice on 25 Oct, once to again request an update about my orders, and once to request that they either update me about my orders or cancel my orders and refund my money.  Five hours later, I received email that both of my orders had been shipped and were on their way.  Order updates at last!

British Essentials prices are on the high side. But their shipping is within the realm of reasonable, not prohibitively outrageous like their competitors.  They do, however, have irresistible, very cheap Special Offers. Unfortunately, they don't offer a choice of payment currrencies. 
 
I took off one star because two of the three biscuit items I ordered were way past their use-by dates. And one star because of their haphazard customer care.
