Dreadful dreadful experience
Awful experience which reduced me to tears.
Having experienced issues cutting and matching the paper (which in all fairness the company did follow up my query in emails) it was never going to work as you can’t cut their lengths and reuse/match the patterns.
Mind the Gap know this and you will be stuck with half a job and a very bitter taste if you don’t buy 3 more drops from them!
My issue was delivery of information and attitude.
The company were right, me the customer, was wrong.
Why should ‘Mind the Gap’ solve my problem, when clearly what they supplied was correct. Why should ‘Mind the Gap’ be out of pocket, after all they’ve done nothing wrong.
I couldn’t get a word in edgeways.
I was informed that ‘our wallpaper comes in these lengths and we do not cut to order’ ‘you don’t need to cut our wallpaper, these are the lengths’ … many times.
And yet, I was sent an email telling me how to cut and pattern match!
Which is impossible, unless you want to join it each drop!
Wastage is immense. Both material and financial. So unless you’re hanging an entire drop. If you need to cut it and match like a standard wallpaper. DO NOT buy from this company their product, although beautiful, is not fit for purpose.
Attitude over the phone reduced a woman in her 60’s to tears. When I asked to speak with someone senior, a manager, I was told ‘I am the representative of this company’.
I asked if she (Diana) was an owner, again ‘I am the representative of this company’.
Talked over. Twisted my words. No desire to meet a customer half way to solve an issue which was causing upset.
Eventually, as I was getting very upset, I was offered a discount of 30% off retail price of £219.
On checking their website I found the paper was in their sale list at £175,
Once postage @ £13 was added (which on my original order was free) the discount was £9!
All in all a dreadful dreadful experience.
Please please read ALL reviews before making your purchase. I am not reviewing the quality, delivery or product to be poor, as it is beautiful paper.
However the customer service is inadequate, challenging and rude.
If anyone else has similar issues and the need to speak with the company, your experience may well reflect mine.
My review may help someone else to avoid my experience.
