AVOID,AVOID, AVOID

Avoid, After a week of no communication regarding a £1050 purchase I was then told it was not in stock after I demanded it still gets delivered on the original date they seemed to find one. The delivery was a total shambles with the delivery driver going to a hospital appointment

Do not buy from Lincs Aquatics!

I bought a Fluval Edge from Lincs Aquatics in May 2022. From the beginning the pump kept stopping, sometimes every day! I contacted Lincs Aquatics and Arran replied and said to remove and clean the propeller, which I was already doing. It didn't make any difference, the pump was obviously faulty.
I contacted them again, twice, and received no reply. Then the pump stopped altogether and I couldn't get it started again.
As it should have still been under warranty, i tried to contact them again and then gave up as worried about losing my fish and bought another pump, at a cost of £40! Low and behold, it's working fine!
I will NEVER buy from the company again as they wouldn't uphold the warranty.

Claim items in stock just to get your order.

Don’t order from them. The website stock is misleading at best and likely a blatant lie. Ordered a small tank in stock on their site for next day delivery. Waited a few days didn’t hear anything. I called and got told the person I needed to speak to wasn’t in. The person in the shop couldn’t help at all. Then got an email a week later saying it would be 2 weeks as they’re not in stock and coming from Germany. I have written several times since and nothing. It’s now three weeks and I’ve requested updated and now a refund as I got the tank elsewhere. Save yourself the drama and heat ache. Their communication is terrible and they claim to have items in stock simply to get the order. They go silent if you ask for a refund. Still waiting.

Avoid this company

Avoid this company. They are clearly advertising stuff on there website that they don't have in stock. I ordered some koi food. Money gone, then get a email saying they have no stock. Blaming the supplier for updating there food range. Stuff still being advertise. Take it off your system or put "sold out".

Initial poor service remedied

Next day delivery was nearly two weeks late. Despite refusing the order and trying to cancel it it was resent. Lincs Aquatics have now remedied this and given me a full refund. I am happy with the service

Visited the aquatics after we went to the garden centre, it’s a little hidden gem if you are into fish keeping.

The place seems to be going through some changes, but staff are friendly and very knowledgeable!

We brought some fish food to feed the fish which the kids really enjoyed and kept them quiet for 10 mins thinking they was feeding sharks.

Made a purchase from Lincs Aquatics a few weeks ago.

From start to finish they have been amazing! Every email and phone call I have made has felt personal, unlike these automated responses you seem to be getting everywhere now.

They really do put the customer first.

I ordered some tetra pond sticks, had issues make the order online, phoned them up and the chap I spoke to on the phone helped me, and two days later it arrived at my door!

Will be returning!!

Do not bother ordering online with these people, they probably don't have what you want.

Ordered and paid for Oase IceFree Thermo 330 on 1st Sept, item in stock usually despatched within 24 hours is what was stated on their website. Payment was taken.
Close of business next day I get an email "Unfortunately, we are experiencing some technical issue's regarding stock due to a new system the item/s you have ordered is currently out of stock but we do have the following"
They then list two other items that are not suitable - neither have a thermostat so with todays energy costs are not a real alternative.
I called to ask if I could just leave the order in place for when stock does come in and I am told not until next year! Really? Ice prevention devices not available until after winter.
Looking at the reviews on this site for them, it seems their stock system leaves a lot to be desired as well as leaving me out of pocket. I also believe that taking payment for stock you do not have is illegal in the UK although the guy I spoke to with an extremely irritating manor calling me buddy and mate informs me this is quite OK.
Avoid and use a decent supplier - I am going back to pond planet in Middlesborough.

Excellent service and a great customer experience. Went into the store Tuesday

Went into the store Tuesday. The lass on the till was so helpful and helped us decide on a water feature for our garden. The stock level was checked at the distribution warehouse and delivery confirmed for Saturday to Northampton.
Was contacted on Friday to confirm delivery and given an approximate delivery time. Arrived as and when promised and now installed as centrepiece in back garden.
Excellent service and a great customer experience.
Well done all at Lincs Aquatics

Avoid this retailer

A case of sod's law: everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. Original delivery was a week late, then after prompting several times it arrived but not to my door as promised. The cabinet collapsed twice and the replacement parts were sent to the billing not the shipping address. Eventually they offered a full replacement but my god, what a shambles. If they refunded my wasted time as well then I would be a rich man.

I have requested more informaiton on this, if you could respond to the TrustPilot email or email us directly at Contact@LincsAquatics.com so we can look into this.

Thank you.

______________________________________________
EDIT:
Unfortunately, Fred has not gotten back to us regarding this review! We are unable to locate this customer's order so therefore we are unable to comment on this situation.

Normally in this situation where the customer is waiting a week for delviery is because we deliver on our own vehicle and we only cover set postcodes on set days, for example Nottingham, Derby, Birmingham are all on a Thursday and Sheffield, Dorncaster and part of Lincolnshire is on a Tuesday.

We do this so we can cover more of England using our own transport to make sure the items arrive with you on time. So for example you order you tank on Thursday but your delviery run falls on a Thursday you would be waiting a week for delviery. We think this is ok as you are getting our own team helping you to carry it in, instead of left on your drive on a pallet.

In regards to cabinet collapsing, as mentioned I can not see no record of your order as you have not provided Trustpilot with more infromation, if there was an issue spare parts these would be sent out ASAP. But in some cases we might not be holding that spare part as it would need to come from the supplier. If this is the case there would of course be delays.

Overall, from what you are saying it dose not seem like you had a great experience, and we would love to fix this! Please contact us so we can look into this!

Cancelled my order with no explanation

I placed an order over the weekend and they just cancelled and refunded it, without any explanation at all. I won’t be using these again!

Hello, sorry about that.
The item you ordered was out of stock and should not have been visible to buy. As soon as this error was noticed all of the products was cancelled and refunded ASAP this was a one-click auto option, as we didn't know who brought it.
We did this as we want to make sure you, the customer gets your money back as soon as possible as this was an error on our part.
You should have been notified via email and/or SMS that the order was cancelled.

Seems a bit of a joke set up

Seems a bit of a joke set up. Website showed items in stock so I ordered. Next thing I get an email saying none in stock but would be week after. Chased it the week after, no reply to two emails. Then I get a message to say they havent got item and issue a refund notice.

This place needs to get a grip. Clearly they have no idea what their stock levels are compared to whats showing on website.

Communication is poor too.

*Firstly, we do not activily use TrustPilot to get reviews, instead we use Reviews.co.uk - To find what our customers this please check us out on there*

I have requested more information about this, so we can look into what has happened!

In regards to communication, I am unable to locate you at the moment so I can not see what communication has been made with you. We do try and contact customers who have issues with stock within a 24 hours.

The website has just been updated, and goes live on the 23rd (tomorrow) which has a live link with our in store stock. There was a delay in getting this to go live which was out of our control. We understand that this is not ideal for you, but we have been working on this since the start of last year.

Once again we are sorry for the experience you have had with us!

lincs aquatics alford

just returned from the alford store and amazed how bad the marine side is looking cyano and hair agae all over the fish stock tanks and as for the coral display tanks what corals they had were dieing or dead apart from the mass of xenia thats taken over, really looks like the lizard snakes and spiders are now more important, was a long time customer but this last trip did it for me over the years quality has gone

Hello Curt,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience about our store.
In response to the minimal choice in regards to marine stock, this was only down to the fact over the festive period we was unable to get new stock in. Due to the bank holidays around Christmas and the increase of orders being placed with everyone shopping online, it would not be responsible to import new stock and for livestock to get "lost" on the travel, and then to be left in the holding area whilst every where has closed down for Christmas.
We are however getting a new shipment in tomorrow, and will be back on track to get new delivery regularly. This will not only give you a good choice of marine fish, but also corals, and reptiles.
We would love to see you back in store, and would love you to see the new fish and stock we have coming in!

Absolutely fantastic service

Absolutely fantastic service. I was looking for a BioOrb so phoned them up. As a complete beginner they helped me choose everything I needed and gave me really good advice. Everything arrived well packaged and as described and very promptly. Nothing was too much trouble. Competitively priced. I certainly would recommend them.
