Has anyone had any dealings with world of camping.?

We bought a coleman sahara 8 from them last week and when we errected it the main steel pole that runs the full length of the tent at the top from front to back is badley corroded and very very rusty. (looks like it's been submerged in salt water).

We e.mailed them twice about this problem asking what they intended to do about the problem. they responded to the first one by saying they will get back to us, But since then four days we have heard nothing..... so has anyone else had any problems with this company?

I had a faulty kitchen stand from them last year but the customer care was excellent. It was collected and replaced within a couple of days of my contacting them. Hope you get your pole sorted.

Why not phone them.  I got our last tent from them and dealt with them over the phone and they were very good. Tel :01872 552 778

They're probably waiting for a reply from Coleman at a guess. They might say replace the tent or just send you a pole out.

Agree with magically we purchased a Monty 4 from them which we found had a couple of faults - after phoning customer service they arranged for the tent to be collected  and  the next day a new one was delivered, just in time for our first camping trip to the New Forest on the bank holiday weekend. excellent service

I've used them a couple of times and had excellent service.

As we live not for from St Agnes we don't buy from the website but go to the shop (Aztec Leisure). The boys in the shop are excellent, really helpful and cheerful with it. Always try to find what you want. Never had to take anything back yet though.

Yes I have and found them to be excellent.  My order was out of stock however they kept me fully informed throughout.

Funny, there is another thread running Here that is praising how good they are.  I have always had excellent service from them and so far couldn't fault them in any way.  Hopefully, it is just an oversight on their part.
