Stress caused me to go elsewhere.

At the beginning I felt that this was a professional company and everything was going smoothly. But as time went on, I had to keep chasing for information and discovering things that hadn't been pointed out. In addition I was misinformed about certain requirements and I became very stressed. I didn't feel comfortable handing my dog over to them and so I decided to move companies, even though I knew I'd lose my 15% deposit. In emails to the manager, I diligently highlighted the issues and reasons for cancelling with them but it seems that their only interest was to protect their employees. I've no doubt they'll respond to this review stating that they were exemplary but I have evidence that proves otherwise. It's a shame that profit is more important than customer service. And I've learnt a lesson - get a few quotes in to compare before committing as I was astounded by how much I saved by going elsewhere.

Hi Matt, We are sad that this was your experience. The safety of your pet is our first priority.The recommendation was thus made to use a larger crate as well as your pet entering the EU under commercial requirements as you are not travelling within 5 days of arrival.We hope your pet travels safely.

Hi Petport, I have no idea what your response refers to. Think you've got the wrong client as I had no issues with crates and my dog is going on the same flight as me.

Hi Matt, during our comms you indicated that you were flying ahead of Audrey, who would stay with family members in SA, and as such required us to send Audrey as commercial entry to the UK in-line with EU directive. We also recommended increasing your kennel size on assessing Audrey’s measurements.

These aren't the reasons I took my business elsewhere, Justine knows exactly why I cancelled . You can't even respond to a review correctly. Proves my point.
