Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service from knowledgeable approachable staff. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Offering a high level of customer service

I have always found the online and telephone support very good, always giving the impression of a personal and high level of customer service. Also to mention the important physical presence of Saffron on the High Street. As a customer, these are very important strengths. Please maintain this approach, it keeps the experience positive, is a valuable selling-point for the business and is something sorely lacking with some (too many,) companies and institutions.
