41% One Star Reviews! Do not order!
PLEASE, Please take notice of the 41% one star reviews before ordering!! I wish I had noticed this before spending a great deal of money on a case of wine for a friends birthday. If I could give a negative star rating for service and delivery, I would. My birthday gift of a case of wine arrived damaged with broken bottle that damaged the labels of other bottles and cut the hand of the gift recipient. I called and I emailed Wine Insiders immediately. After multiple attempts to get someone on the phone, I did talk to a customer service rep. I was offered $25 online credit for a future order initially and then, after "speaking with management," they added another $20. Why do they think I would ever order from them again with the worst customer service I have experienced in a very long time?? I know they have insurance on these Fedex deliveries. I sent 3 photos showing the broken bottle and the damaged box. This was a gift!! I asked them to redeliver the case of wine and asked if they can have Fedex pick up the damaged box with remaining bottles. They refused and/but stated they would be using my photos to address Fedex, and more than likely they will be getting a refund from Fedex themselves. DO NOT order from this company.
