I paid for a gift box

I paid for a gift box. Received a leaking bottle in a plastic bag. Gift was for a male colleague and had a pink cheap gift card attached with the wrong message written on it. Very disappointing

Daylight robbery

Didn’t have what I purchased had to call me with a solution and I paid £10 for next day delivery and didn’t receive it the next day. Disgusting

We would like to express our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you've experienced with your recent order, both in terms of product availability and the delay in delivery.

After reviewing your concerns, we have taken immediate action to address the situation. To ensure you receive your order promptly, we have proposed an alternative solution. We are pleased to confirm that you have agreed to substitute the unavailable 35CL bottles of Hennessy VS Cognac with 2 bottles of Hennessy VS Cognac 20CL, at no extra cost. This adjustment also includes an additional 5CL as a goodwill gesture.

We understand the importance of a seamless shopping experience, and we regret falling short of your expectations. Additionally, we acknowledge the inconvenience caused by the delay in delivering your order on the promised next day. As a gesture of goodwill, we will be refunding the extra £4 you paid for next-day delivery.

The service was brilliant

The service was brilliant. I couldn’t see how to add a note to a gift so I used the live chat. Nobody responded to the chat however I received a call from a lovely guy who sorted my request. Very efficient and helpful
