Angling Direct are still giving delivery times for in stock items as 12-14 working days.
How much longer do they reckon they can keep doing that?
Totally unacceptable to me as a customer.

Shop elsewhere then 🤷🏻♂️
Everyome is struggling to keep up with demand, shops, couriers, Royal Mail. At least they are letting you know how long to expect to wait. I'm sure you'd moan if they never said how long the delays could be and you had to wait 10-12 days?
I don't get what you are expecting of them?

Yes I ordered a couple of things around 3 weeks ago and had about the same. Dispatched about 5 days after ordering and another 2 days delivery. However I'm disappointed that they are not even offering a 24 or 48 hour delivery option at a cost of course. I was looking to order a bait boat but I'm not prepared to wait 12-14 working days for it. As was hoping to use it when I go fishing in next week.

Sign of the times fella, no doubt they are working with less staff than normal, have to work to strict 2m guild lines, delivery companies are running flat out, for some reason mail order is pretty busy, I guess it will be until everything is a bit more like normal,

It's just the way it is with the current situation at the moment they are probably working with minimal staff which ain't help with getting high numbers of orders to pick package up and get out the door . Plus their probably struggling to get stock from the tackle manufacturers that's why they are quoting them times if they need to order it

Maybe you should have ordered it 12-14 days ago... just saying.

Unfortunately as good as my local shop are, and i do use them a lot they don't stock everything or have the means to order it in.
They did a Tracker order for more a few weeks ago though, and only took a few days to be able to collect from the shop.
Im moaning because i've ordered quite a bit of stuff recently from many suppliers (Prestige Carp Porter) for example ordered on Sunday and delivered today.
12-14 days is way more than other retailers are doing.

Can you do click and collect?
When I bought mine I drove to furnace lakes I think it was to pay for it and get it

could be something to do with what couriers they use or only post at certain times when orders are at high. I ordered 100 meters of armour cable from up north last Thursday it was here in Essex sat morning..

I phoned Angling Direct this morning to cancel an order as I need the items for the weekend & they cannot say when they are likely to be sent out. The woman I spoke to was very nice & cancelled the order & issued a refund straight away. She said they had a lot of people cancelling orders. Now that the shops have opened, I can just pick up what I need from my local tackle shop
