Fear not folks, now that the TAS shop is up and running you will be able to get all your stuff from there. :excited:
Everyone makes mistakes as the Dalek said climbing off the dustbin.

That is a real shame - I ordered some great items from them and always found the service & delivery excellent.

:( I used to buy all my egg boxes from them

Me too  :(
Fear not, my neighbour sells egg boxes (and LOTS of other interesting things  ;)) on his website

Just had some lidded hayracks from this company www.frenchall-goats.co.uk. Excellent product and good value I thought.

Please be "extra warned". I was one of those with an outstanding order, for electric chicken netting, placed in October 2013. Today I was clearing old bookmarks from my browser and tried Ascott's before I did so. I was amazed to find the usual website up and running.

I phoned and asked them what was going on. They found my order on their computer records, so they are also using the same computer records. Because the name of their limited company has changed, they say they can carry on trading with the same online infrastructure, but honouring none of the outstanding orders. And yet they still trade online as Ascott, just as before.

I certainly wouldn't deal with them again.

Thanks for the update Dave, I was on the site a couple of days ago and did wonder why it was still open for business.

We've only just started our shop and it might be worth a look for you: http://www.tasshop.co.uk/

Any feedback on range, prices etc welcome. We can source many products on demand.
