Phoned this morning to check that they were accepting donations during COVID restrictions, was told that they were not accepting any after today. Said I would be along this afternoon with my stuff. Was told they were not accepting kids toys ,no problem because I was donating clothes.
Arrived in afternoon with 6 bags generously stuffed with mens and womens clothes (some with price tags still on) plus 2 pairs of expensive Dunelm curtains retailing at £180 a pair .
Imagine how I felt to be told they weren't accepting donations because they had received too many. After explaining that I had checked in the morning and had been told they were accepting today they agreed to accept my donation.
However the manner of the staff was so rude and dismissive. I didnt expect a fanfare of trumpets for my donation which would probably have helped them get £500 but a smile and a thanks would have been lovely.
Will still donate to the PDSA but will go to another shop.
I am retired from working for 25 years in a PDSA hospital + quite frankly think you need to change your staff.
I will not be donating anything here again.
