Tree came snapped - only partial refund given I ordered an olive tree as a sentimental gift for a family member. Upon arrival, the tree was snapped in half where the support rod ended. Almost every leaf on the tree has fallen off and it was basically bare. While I understand that some plants get stressed in shipping, this was excessive. I contacted the company by email and on the web page. The "live chat" listed on the website was non existent. I provided pictures of the tree and answered the question of whether the box had been damaged. About a week went by with no response, and when I finally did hear back, I was offered a medium size plant of a different kind as they were out of olive trees. They only offered a portion of the price I paid, and when I questioned why I was told that the pot wasn't damaged so they wouldn't be sending another one/refunding that portion. I had already explained that I didn't want another plant as it was only an olive tree that held the sentiment and just wanted the refund. What need do I have for a pot without the plant, and it was a gift (which I had stated repeatedly). There was no option to send the pot back. All they did was refund a portion of my money. Now I have no gift, and an expensive pot.

Will never order from The Sill Again The Sill did finally reach out and offer me a $15 dollar credit. I won’t be taking avail of the offer because their prices are much higher than other venues for the same item. The money tree I purchased from The Sill continues to degrade. I felt it much more economical to just purchase a new one from another venue which is much lower in price than the Sill, even with the credit they offered me. However, I must state, they did finally reach out and offer some compensation. I have tried and tried to contact The Sill. I ordered a money plant and it came in and looked healthy. However, upon following all instructions of caring for this plant, it has started to die. These are supposed to be easy to care for plants. I’ve contacted The Sill and they do not bother returning emails. No phone number and chat doesn’t work. I will never order from this company again for the simple reason that they have non existent customer service. So, ya better hope everything goes correctly and stays that way because these people are obviously so arrogant that they feel they don’t have to answer to anyone regarding their product regardless of the issue.

The Sill Stole Money From Me The Sill took my money and did not provide a product for that money. After 3 requests, they're not able to produce a tracking number or anything to my satisfaction. They take over 1 business day to respond to every single email to buy themselves more time to find any answer. This is a poorly run service that sells overpriced plants that you can get at your local nursery for 1/3rd of the price.

Dead Olive Tree - TERRIBLE Customer Service Ordered an Olive tree for a Christmas present. Delivery to Oakland, CA. Also paid extra for the winterization,. Tree arrived dead after 2 weeks. Customer service is a joke and only willing to refund for the dead tree, not tax or pot - what's the point of full service if the main product is dead? The worst part is the customer service and their failure to reply or offer adequate service. Seems to be a planter pot selling scheme.

The Sill has provided the worst… The Sill has provided the worst customer service I have ever experienced. It is extremely difficult to get a reply from them - expect to wait days. I received a plant in terrible condition, then a replacement in the same state, and they still have not refunded two plants I never received after nearly a month of my follow ups. Shockingly terrible service. Buyer beware. Follow up - Despite the message below, I did not receive any response or contact. from The Sill. Again, absolutely atrocious.
