ISCA Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 A long time since I have posted on Omlet- hello again! I just wanted to send out a warning regarding Wells Poultry- they have applied for voluntary liquidation. My order is weeks and weeks overdue. This was the first time I had ordered anything from them. I have been emailing them and getting no response. Their telephone (which they never answered) has become a fax machine and the website has diverted to another site: http://www.chicken-house.co.uk/ which to me looks like the same site with a makeover. Their address is the same! This morning I received a letter and forms from the insolvency company I had already contacted my credit card company before receiving this letter. As the order was for an item costing over £100 (and less than £30,000!) I am covered by credit card companies insurance and my money will be refunded. Those who did not pay by credit card or had orders of less than £100 may not be so lucky unfortunately I just wanted to give the heads up to others.

WitchHazel Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 WHat a shame. I've bought from Wells poultry a number of times and they've always been great. A complete nuisance for you, thank goodness your purchases qualified under the credit card guarantee scheme. EDITED TO ADD: I've just read this back...I wasn't being sarcastic when I said it must be a complete nuisance for you, I really meant it.

ISCA Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 I never thought your were! I feel sorry for all those who will not get a refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Sad news, I've often bought off them too as their online postage was reasonable. Shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Well I don't remember buying anything from them, not even asked to go on an email mailing list, but I've suddenly started getting emails - when I saw Chicken House I just assumed it was junk mail as I get tons of those.
