Completely unusable. Says it works and it really just doesn't. Royal Mail is killing itself with the inability to see that it is unable to provide a service to humans without other humans to provide this service. Just Ruining my life one step at a time. Thanks, Royal Mail, Im just glad the queen isn't alive to see what you have done.

Suddenly unsupported and is not integrating with my store anymore. What are we supposed to do. No information has been provided. Extremely inconvenient with no communication. Please update us immediately. Complete shambles.

It's good enough, however would be much better if:
- you could load a credit to avoid going through gpay/worldpay/paypal everytime you paid
- you could copy the order details, so if doing a resend, you could copy the original order details and make a new order out of it.

Thank you for your review. Please be aware that you can actually clone an existing order by selecting the order on the order grid (click the grey circle), select the Clone option in the resulting bottom right menu and Select Go. I hope you find this useful.

The update to incorporate Click & Drop App has been a disaster, as the app is not compatible with Shopify and I have now lost access to all my previous orders - if you are going to do an update and require an app download, you need to make sure the app is compatible and accessible!! I will now be forced to switch from Royal Mail, having successfully used Royal Mail and Shopify for the past two years

Update: Yes I deleted the integration upon your advice, but am unable to re-add the integration as it keeps taking me to the app download page and upon trying to download it says the app is not compatable with shopify.

Thank you for your review and really sorry to hear about the problems you have had. It looks like you haven't yet tried to create a new Shopify integration after deleting your previous problematic one, which may well solve your problem. If that still doesn't help then please contact our Customer Service team team who will investigate and try to rectify the problem for you.

PLEASE can RM fix this app - when it works it's great, but several of my orders fail to pull through, and there's seemingly no reason for it. This didn't happen with Squarespace, so I have no idea what's going on. Right now, when I click on the app within Shopify I get 'business.parcel.royalmail.com refused to connect.'

Update - Hello again. As you will have already noticed we are pleased to report that we have fixed the issue with your account and your shippable Shopify orders are successfully importing in to your Click & Drop again.

Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused and if you have any further issues please contact our support team at clickanddropsupport@royalmail.com.

Regards,
The Click & Drop Team.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your review and we are really sorry to hear that you have been having problems with your integration.

We have been investigating the integration behaviour on your Click&Drop account and it seems there is a discrepancy between your order product information being provided by Shopify and the information we are expecting to receive.

We will continue to investigate to narrow down the exact data issue and if required will contact Shopify for clarification, but please rest assured that we will do what we can to get your integration up and running again as soon as possible, and appreciate your patience in the meantime.

Regards,
The Click & Drop Team.

Doesn't add orders to click and drop account, so you still need to manually type out order details which seems to to be more work than just copy/paste and posting at a post office.

Update, while yes there has now been an update, it only displays about 7 days worth of orders, we're mostly a MTO bespoke shop with lead times of upto 7 weeks, so this still renders the app useless for us. the click and drop integration on etsy allow for all orders of any age, so why shopify is limited to 7 days i don't know.

Thank you for your review. As detailed in our help guide, upon first creating your integration there can be a small initial delay before your first orders import into Click & Drop, and we have checked and can see that all of your orders did subsequently import very shortly after you posted your review. Please don't hesitate to contact our support team if you experience any other issues.
Thank you for your update. For reference all Click & Drop integrations will only import store orders made within the last 7 days, but may go back further than this at the point of first creating the integration. I think it would be worth contacting our support team directly to help us fully understand your specific use case and if there is a way to accommodate it within Click & Drop.

*EDITED IN RESPONSE TO DEVELOPER'S REPLY BELOW*

Our errors are occurring due to our online store being integrated multiple times on C&D, as opposed to a single integration that's creating duplicate orders. This issue is caused because every time we launch C&D - regardless of wether it's from within Shopify's dashboard, or visiting the app URL link directly (as recommended by the developer themselves in their reply below) it still creates multiple integrations - so even if we access C&D via a direct URL, it still continues to create multiple integrations and subsequently, cloned orders. For us, this recommended workaround is no longer working consistently and needs urgently addressing for all users.

*ORIGINAL REVIEW*

I honestly cannot comprehend how bad this app is, if you want something to assist the derailment of your online business, use this app.

As others have said, the synchronisation is terrible, it constantly re integrates your online store so if you have, let's say, 10 new orders for example, it will show up in the Click and Drop app that you have 30 new orders, and then the order numbers will not sync up to the back end of your shopify. Every time we open this app, it reintegrates as a new store connection every time, causing endless clones of multiple orders that become incredibly difficult to keep track of.

It used to work not too bad. I remember seeing a review on here a while back where someone said to never to launch the app from your shopify dashboard, but instead just bookmark the URL for the app's home page, and visit it directly from a new tab to avoid the repeating integration issue. This hack was working well for us for a while, up until recently, whereas now it seems that regardless of wether you access the Click and Drop app via shopify dashboard, or by visiting the URL directly, it just doesn't sync up correctly to your store and/or pulls in an absurd amount of duplicates.

Surely this must be one of the biggest and most used services for small UK online businesses, and this is the state of the app and it's functionality? The fact that the same complaints have been echoed on other reviews for so long shows RM's total lack of support or motivation to actually fix these errors too. Diabolical. Please hire a new, competent developer team that actually does their job.

Thank you for the extra information.

To avoid any ambiguity for other readers of this review, once a Shopify integration has been setup within Click & Drop, users wishing to manage their orders within Click & Drop should navigate directly to the Click & Drop home page (https://business.parcel.royalmail.com).

If you still experience multiple integrations in the future despite doing this please do not hesitate to contact our support team as soon as practicable.

Best Regards,
The Click & Drop Team.

Thank you for your review and and sorry to hear that you have been having problems with importing orders into Click & Drop.

In the last few months all of your duplicate orders imported into Click & Drop have been due to having multiple Shopify integrations setup on your account, so it seems the issue is how multiple integrations are being created rather than duplicate orders being created by a single integration.

As you refer to in your review, we currently recommend not using the Open button on the App listing to navigate to Click & Drop as this will currently trigger a new integration creation process. We are investigating a resolution to this issue with Shopify.

It looks like your most recent orders imported since deleting your duplicate integrations have not had duplicates created, so if you have any further instances of duplicate integrations being created despite using a bookmark to the Click & Drop home page, or have problems getting orders to import at all (which you seem to make reference to) then please first refer to the following Shopify help pages:-

https://help.parcel.royalmail.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115001447813-How-to-integrate-your-Shopify-store

https://help.parcel.royalmail.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360008874693-Troubleshooting-your-Shopify-Integration

If you still have issues after using these guides please don't hesitate to contact our support team at clickanddropsupport@royalmail.com for further assistance.

Once again sincere apologies for the issues you have been having.

Best Regards,
The Click & Drop Team.
