Didn't B&R explain this on here a week or so ago? Can't remember details but planned to lease part of a Site while extending warehouse elsewhere?

[Guest Owen]

I am sorry to learn of this. But it is probably self inflicted. And it could be another sign of the Sport dying slowly. If that is the case, it will Studs going out of business next

[cowman]

Re-location: You've seen a sign outside our premises which originally referred to a sub-let on the site (lorry park) We have a 4 acre complex and not all of it is used by us although we own the entire facility. We infact are considering moving to a property that will be 100% pigeon equipment (separate from our sister company, EverythingForPets.com). Depends if we can find a tenant for all or part of our present site. If we move it may be only a few yards to the new business park.

Is Their Going To Be A Shop? Yes, of course

We hold £100,000s of pigeon equipment IN STOCK. If you don't believe us please visit and ask to see our warehouse.

Service? We try our best and are continually reviewing our procedures.

I know that Christine looks at this Forum because she wrote to me after a put a comment on here. So this is for her benefit. I have dealt with B&R in the past and have been very happy with the service although the telephone manner of some of the Staff has always been suspect. In recent times the service has been very bad because of the lack of honesty of B&R when they take orders without having checked to see if the order can be filled. If the Customer was given the information as to how long they would have to wait and allowed to make the decision as to whether to continue with the business, no-one would have reason to complain. In addition to that, the Staff need to receive training in the way they should treat the Customers. This applies as much to the Managers as the more junior Staff. They need to know that a mail order business stands or falls by the treatment that Customers get. Contrasting the behaviour of the B&R staff with the way that Taylors treat their Customers should form a guide as to how things should be done. I understand that many people think that it is part of the North of England manner to be blunt, but I think that most people do not find it charming. Just rude and bad mannered.

dont know if they know this, probably do now, but even before that, not disputing some are not getting good service, have heard a few complaints, i dont deal a lot but do and have done for a couple of years and get their catalouge sent to me each year, dont know what their depot is like, but they look like they put up a good stand at Blackpool, thats me talking about looking, cant say anything on service, there

[gulkie]

sorry but i agree with fifer i have dealt with them for many years ,even up untill last week with not

a lot of problems, ok so they do make mistakes but what company dont

[Guest IB]

No offence, but B&R go back to when I was a teenager in 1960's when I remember they took small adverts in BHW. If they go under (which I doubt) I believe it would be the equivalent of our former 'National' pigeon courier folding. Yes it was replaced by many smaller organisations, but none cover the former's complete service or price.
