Profits come before customer service or the welfare of the dog
I have been driven to write a review after my last 2 (out of 3 in total) have fallen way short of the standard I expect to receive with regards to my orders of raw dog food.
My previous order arrived defrosted and leaking. Mersey Raw advised me to simply refreeze and use it when I asked for it to be replaced. They made it clear that they would not replace it. I decided (erroneously as it turns out) to give them a second try.
The latest order arrived with 13/30 tubs smashed and broken, several items defrosted and leaking. My first instinct was to pick up the phone - it was then I discovered they don’t advertise a phone number. This says a lot to me. I emailed them with images, no response, I posted a review on Facebook and hey presto, a reply. After much wrangling on my part, for them to refund me (as there was no way I would use them again, once bitten twice shy), I was offered less than 50% of the amount I had paid for the damaged goods with the line ‘you can take it or leave it we are not prepared to give you anything else!! Needless to say I have had to accept this as some recompense towards the damaged goods.
I would like their lack of care and consideration to be known by all. The items were damaged as they were loosely thrown into a box way too big for the quantity ordered. Instead of accepting this, they sought to exonerate themselves of all blame. It is a shame that we cannot upload photos here to highlight the chaos that was the contents of the parcel that arrived.
To make things clear, I had a 10% discount on my order which made each of the 30 tubs I ordered £2.70. 13 of these were damaged beyond use and yet more defrosted. I requested my money back on these items. I got £18 back from them whereas the value of the smashed tubs alone was £35.10. Be warned. To add insult to injury my husband got a nasty cut trying to sort out the good from the bad. From a health and safety point of view this is concerning.
I would not recommend this company to anymore feeding their dogs raw food.
