I cannot recommend Van Direct highly…

I cannot recommend Van Direct highly enough!
From the very beginning, Amanda Jenkins, my Sales Consultant, went completely above and beyond to make sure everything ran as smoothly as possible. She was constantly chasing updates on my Ford Transit Courier, keeping me informed every step of the way, and always stayed so positive and reassuring throughout the entire process. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and I genuinely felt that she cared about making sure I was looked after. Amanda is an absolute credit to Van Direct.
A huge thank you also goes to Emma and Zoe from the Customer Service and Finance teams. They were both incredibly helpful, professional, and so quick to respond to any queries I had. Their communication and support made everything stress-free.
I’d also like to mention the delivery driver, who I believe was called James (apologies if I’ve remembered that incorrectly!). He phoned me in the Tuesday afternoon to let me know he will be delivering my new van first thing on Wednesday morning and he was just as excited as I was! He was genuinely so happy for me, and his enthusiasm made receiving my new van even more special.
This experience has shown me that it truly takes an amazing team to make everything come together. Every single person I dealt with was kind, professional, and genuinely cared about providing outstanding customer service.
Thank you to everyone at Van Direct. I’m absolutely thrilled with my new van and will be forever grateful for everything you’ve done. You have an incredible team! ❤️🚐

Best Wishes to the team!

Our van broke down in February this…

Our van broke down in February this year and eventually managed to get it booked in at the Citroen dealership Stalantis Turburn Road Birmingham on the 30th March for the warranty work to be completed together with a DPF issue
To date as from today the 26 May the van is still at this dealership and works still not completed
No feedback whatsoever from vans direct and no response or reply to our emails and phone calls
We have ended up hiring another van for now 9 weeks whilst our van is stuck at the dealership

Please keep away from vans direct for your next vehicle as a total shambles of a company and despicable service

We have emailed vans direct customer service and to date still no reply or response

Hi Philip
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that Vans Direct made such a positive impression at your AGM. It’s great to know that the information provided — particularly around transitioning from diesel vans to fully electric — was helpful and informative.
Supporting customers through that shift is increasingly important, so it's fantastic to hear it was well received.
Your kind words are truly appreciated.
Kind regards
