“won't order from this company again, from the start difficulty getting someone to answer the phone, then logging online to track orders was even more difficult, used online chat after 9 days of hearing nothing to be told order will be another week and another order will be followed up. lost order. oddly enough half of the delivery turned up that afternoon without any notification.”

The team will acknowledge the complaint within 48 hours & advise how the matter is being escalated and resolved in a timely matter. Kind regards Team @ BPO

“Ordered facia boards, they never contacted me to say they had problems getting them , then when I contacted them they said they will refund me my money, week later still no refund had to contact them again and they said they had refunded, which they haven’t so I’ve raised a dispute with pay pal as that’s how I paid, stay well away from this company bunch of amateur cowboys”

Helpful Report

“The company is impossible to get hold of. Live chat is never available and the phone line is never answered. If you put out a recording that says "We are experiencing a high level of calls", then that is not a high level - it's your normal level and you're doing nothing to improve the situation. There really is no excuse for not answering a telephone call where people want to spend money with you.”

“Was told by the sales team, "that they had checked with their local distributor" and was promised that delivery would be either the following Wednesday PM or Thursday AM, neither of which materialised! Spoke to building plastics again via live chat and was told that they would look into it and call me back.....still waiting for that call! Called the local distributor myself and was told that "the items are not in stock" and "delivery to my area is only on a Monday" Unlikely to be with me by next Monday either! Do not fall for this companies lies!”

Hi Craig, Please can you advise of your order number as we cannot use the name Craig as a reference to find the order? Please call 0333 121 4800 and ask for the customer service manager Kathleen who will be able to help you resolve the matter immediately. I can honestly say that the sales team are not giving out false information or lies, we would only pass on the relevant information we have at the time. Regards, Anthony

Hi Craig, We have located your order number now, we have emailed you and also left a voicemail. We will be delivering your order on Monday 25th July. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. Please feel free to contact us using the above details if you require anything further. Regards BPO Ltd

“Very poor service and a purchasing process that is somewhat restrictive, time consuming and customer unfriendly. I had waited weeks for a confirmed delivery date and ultimately had to cancel part of the order because they would not commit to providing availability of materials ordered - the credit card bill arrived well in advance of the delivery of materials. To top it all....packaging and some materials were damaged and require replacing. This process is also very very poor from a customer's perspective and I have a project that has sat stagnant for weeks as a result of dealing with this company. Do yourself a favour and buy elsewhere.”

“Placed a order with you on the 25 August , order number 130490 informed you that I was going to return a 5 meter length x 300mm length of soffit plus 2 facia brackets to Eurocell Abingdon they have informed me they have refunded you the money, trying to get in touch with you is like trying to get I touch with someone on the moon, could I please have my refund, terrible communications.”

Hi John, I am sorry for the delay in your refund but this has now been done, you were served twice on the online chat facility which we responded accordingly. Refunds do take a while and we do have up to 14 days to approve a refund to you as per our T&Cs and the distance selling act. I hope you will use us in the future and appreciate your feedback and valued custom. BPO Ltd Team

“I placed an order almost two months ago and the item has still not arrived. In the current climate, I can appreciate this is a problem for many companies. However, the customer service and unfulfilled promises have left me really frustrated. Contacting the company had to be done via Live Chat, but responses were significantly delayed (it has taken over an hour to respond to my three questions!) - promises of call backs/updates did not happen and no apologies or understanding from the company. I have wasted a significant amount of time trying to work out where my order is and I have now been forced to cancel my order as I can't wait any longer - I just hope the refund is processed as promised without any need for me to force a refund via PayPal. UPDATE: As seen in the reply by the company, there is still no apology forthcoming and, as I have come to expect, no call was made to update me regarding a refund. I've had to escalate this though PayPal to try and recover my money.”

Hi Michael, thank you for getting in touch. I will get the customer service manager to give you a call and sort out any issues in regards to your refund.

“I was informed by email that my delivery would arrive yesterday. Today I received a email to review. I have still not received the delivery and not even a phone call or email with an apology. It is meant to be delivered with their own van so they should be able to give me some updates.”

“Terrible company to deal with. Advised of a delivery date, waited in all day. Arrived the next day so lost a days work .cannot get through on the phone ( on hold for 30 mins ). order was delivered in 2 parts. The skirting and internal corners were delivered the following week. On opening the package the Torus skirting I ordered turned into chamferred skirts but got the correct corners ( which of course did not fit the incorrect skirting. tried again to contact the company. Still not picking up the phone and 2 weeks later still no response to my email. Had to buy replacement corners from Amazon to get the job done so £14 out of pocket. Products were fine but the customer service is completely non existant. Buy from anywhere but here. Order number 57143”

“Did not receive full order And no communication to say why”

Helpful Report

“Awful experience! The fact that they didn’t deliver the correct amount of items on the order wasn’t the problem, these things happen. It was the absolute lack of communication, I have literally just been ignored and left in the dark as to where my length of fascias is. Even now a week after delivery I still have had no acknowledgment what so ever, Completely lacking in customer service 👍🏻”

“Excellent product. Very pleased when it eventually arrived. I understand the problems with covid but it took 6 weeks to get delivered. First e mail after ordering on the 31st august told me the eta was 15th September. That came and went. Numerous phone messages left and e mails sent with no response. I eventually asked pay pal for a refund and I received my order within a week! Caused me lots of problems with workmen and decorators.”

“I would not use this company again as when you have a problem there is no one to speak to.”

“DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They are a scam. I purchased from them on the 13th of June and received an acknowledgement email on the 17th June stating my order had been dispatched, then absolutely nothing. This is when I found out they do not answering calls or emails. I e-mailed them on the 11th July asking about the order, then called a few times, no answer. E-mailed again on the 18th July asking to cancel. No response. Calls are not answered at all. They have taken my money, my bathroom is still unfinished after nearly 3 months, I no longer have access to a plumber - he's been cancelled twice and I had to pay him for wasting his time. I need this order to be cancelled so I can buy it elsewhere. I find it appalling that the company doesn't honour orders, has tenacity to send out a dispatch e-mail then doesn't respond to e-mails or answer the phone. And they are STILL accepting orders from people and taking their money. This is a complete disgrace. I have read the reviews on here and it is the same story.”

“Please do not use this company - unless you want to be robbed! They have taken our money and not delivered the products we've paid for. I have spent hours trying to contact them on the telephone, with no reply. I have also sent them 2 emails - again with no response. I have today issued legal proceedings against them. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!”

“I paid you £560 in March for soffits and fascias that were never delivered. You dont reply to my emails and your phone is never answered. This is disgusting.What is your game? I sent the above review and got an invitation to email BPO, who would look into matters. Of couse, this was to show an answer on the reviews website and they have not responded to my email, let alone given me a refund”

Hi Mark, Sorry to hear about this, if you would like to contact me directly on the email customerservices@bpoltd.co.uk I will look into this straight away for you. Many Thanks, BPO Ltd

“Beware of using Building Plastics Online. I have used BPO before without any issues but this last order I now regret placing. Firstly, although they advertise PayPal as a payment method, this wasn't available at point of pay only WorldPay which is not the same. I received an order acknowledgement email with an ETA of 27/07/20. It still hadn't arrived a week after this. After trying numerous times to contact BPO I finally got through. They returned the call to tell me it would arrive the next day, Wednesday. It still didn't and as I found out that the order was coming directly from my local Eurocell store. I called Eurocell directly later that afternoon. They said it was on the lorry but would be delivered the following day, Thursday. As it still hadn't arrived by mid afternoon and couldn't get an answer on the phone I got in my car and went to Eurocell. I got an apology but was shocked when they said they couldn't deliver it as BPO hadn't paid them. Apparently this has happened before with this company. I was desperate for my order so I tried to call but after waiting 10 minutes listening to a recorded message saying "my call will be answered shortly", I emailed BPO asking them to call or email me by midday on the Friday or I would cancel the order. I didn't hear from them so I cancelled with BPO and paid Eurocell myself. They kindly gave me a good rate but I am waiting to see if BPO honour their 30 day refund guarantee. I'm not holding my breath as it's been 13 days since I cancelled and I still haven't heard back from them. I'll probably end up having to go to the small claims court. Pandemic or not, this is no way to run a business. I don't even think that they hold any stock but sell other peoples products. They are nearly impossible to contact. You are better off going directly to the main supplier and negotiating a rate for yourself.”

Hi Paul, Sorry for the service you have received. We were constantly trying to get the order dispatched from the depot along with several other orders they have for ourselves. I can honestly say we have issues with this depot and the fact that your order was not delivered was simply down to the inept attitude of the staff in this depot. I can confirm that the refund has been processed at your request. I hope you understand due to the current climate that we are extremely busy and the phone lines do take a while to answer. Many Thanks, Building Plastics Online Ltd

“Ordered cladding on 22/07/20, was sent email saying delivery will be week commencing 27/07/20, nothing turned up! Sent numerous email but they won't reply and they don't answer the phone ever! Disgusting customer service! They have basically stole my money!”

“Iv used building plastics online couple times now mainly because they are the cheapest around however every time I have experienced the worst customer service ever. Orders been delivered with parts missing, then my last order which was placed and said a 5 day lead delivery time was exepected actually took them under a month. You won’t be able to get through to them via their contact number as they just don’t answer, but luckily I had direct number through to one of their managers who basically kept saying it’s coming tomorrow. These delays cost me hundreds and they didn’t even offer a discount (which when your spending thousands with them routinely you would expect to be a given) instead they offered full refund knowing I wouldn’t of been able accept because I wouldn’t be able to get a new delivery sooner. Overall they are cheap but they are that bad Iv changed supplier and now use claddingwarehouse.com who are only slightly more the cost but they will go out of their way to deliver. Iv you don’t mind waiting till when ever they feel like delivering your incorrect order then these are the guys other wise go els where.”

“This seems a familiar tale. I ordered over £100 worth of skirting in May and was informed a couple of weeks later that it had been dispatched. The delivery never arrived. I have emailed numerous times and tried live chat and phoned countless times but have never had a reply. I have requested a refund but still have had no reply. To make matters worse, judging by other reviews that customers who have ordered long after me have had deliveries of the orders. I do not believe that someone at the company would not have had time in 3 months to organize my delivery or refund. I have never given a review before but then again I have never bought from a company with total lack of customer service. It looks like i will have to try to recover my money somehow. I would have to say avoid this company at all costs.”
