Smudged, between me and you I don't know why I get so much hate on this forum. Every time we release something new there is a Gardiner's sale which never happened before... They should be thanking us!

We've got the mark 2 range of phoenix coming out now, I think a few on here may even have some... I wonder if Alex will offer this to all his customers, it's only fair... And may prove expensive ;D!

Perhaps the time you somehow funneled Gardeners Poles url straight to your website didn't help with the animosity you feel?

  Well, it turns out that I have been sent the wrong pole. I have got the hybrid pole. Apparently the Hybrid has blue ends and the 'X' has silver ends.
   I was quite mad when I phoned them today and found out, because if I hadn't already got a full carbon pole I wouldn't have known the difference, and would have been ripped off for 80 or so quid. He assured me it was a mistake.
   When sending out poles that look the same, they should be checking them to make sure customers get the right ones. I bet no dearer poles have been sent out, mistaken for cheaper ones.
  Mistake or con. I don't know but my faith in WCW has been shaken.
  Anyway, they said they sending someone out tomorrow to exchange the pole.

Jimmy, looked into this and as discussed wrong pole sent out... I can assure you we have sent out full carbons before to customers when they have only order composites, funny enough they don't complain! We've upgrade the pole quality along with colour coding  the material for the mk2 range (red, blue, black and distinct marking for the Neon poles). It will be very clear which is which going forward..

Apologises for the mix up, I'm as disappointed as yourself... :(

Whenever I've looked at the phoenix poles they are always labeled? Phoenix x has an 'x' and hybrid has a 'p' so why not on the wcw ones??? Bizarre

I've had no complaint from any service i've recieved from WCW, they've been great. But now with this one sentence you have destroyed any faith that they know what they're doing. How are you finding out, after the event, with no complaint you've sent out the wrong gear ? Looks to me like you're trying to make inaccuracy acceptable by the fact a recipient may benefit from it. Thats neither here nor there, your ordering system is inefficient, or so it appears from what you say , and works or it doesn't ?

How can a company send out the wrong pole? I don't understand? That's ridiculous, you can't confuse the poles. There's definatly labels on them, I go to a local supplier for mine and they are always labeled.

Every, and I mean EVERY, company in the world (let alone forum frequenters) has sent a wrong product/service out at some point in time....the same way you've probably cleaned the wrong property or missed a part of job, etc.... Didn't amazon have a massive pricing error costing £10000's just the other day?? When you do something 1000's of times, is there anyone who performs flawlessly every time? I'll give you a grand if you find someone!

Come on CleanClear lets get real.....

Jakey, the pole just has a phoenix sticker on it



Stephen I don't want to rubbish your business but this is just basic stuff. If your sending out poles the first thing you do is check that you are sending the right one.
 If you could just deliver the right one tomorrow please (even if i do have to wait in for delivery.)  Thanks

PS I have used the other pole a couple times as it took a bit to realise.

Jimmy, mine all have a second sticker with the model number, they read fp18x and fp25x I beleive, can't remember off top off my head... (18ft and 25ft) x stands for carbon

So no idea why they didn't have a sticker on yours...

Jimmy, this is where we are at now....the confusion is, i'm guessing, the transfer of new products - all black poles meaning carbon. We have about 5 warehouse staff packing boxes all day so it seems like it was a case of 'pick something up and put it in the box.....'

Easy mistake to make for the warehouse staff if you ask me.
I many of times in the past have cleaned the wrong house or bought the wrong dog food getting the puppy brand instead etc. everyone makes mistakes.

Agree 100%, colours could be a challenge for the staff, especially if English isn't their first language and they can't read the boxes.
