Excellent fast service with a quick…

Excellent fast service with a quick response to my error of putting the wrong delivery address on a gift. This was rectified immediately even though it was a Sunday. I really appreciated the ease in which I was able to correct this, and relieved I wouldn't have to resend a gift adding additional costs. Very happy with the service.

AVOID - They breach consumer rights

They breach consumer rights

Awful customer service - damaged fabric received and they won't allow returns and refunds when past their T&Cs 14 day period which is a breach of consumer rights act - Don't shop here. Much better service shopping online at Dalston Mill Fabrics and Pound Fabrics

Edit following their reply
Consumer rights act 2015 is still valid for circumstances up to 6 years - I think everybody out there buys fabric and stashes it away so be careful out there people - this company does not observe the law

Thank you for your feedback.

We respectfully disagree with your interpretation of the Consumer Rights Act.

Where a product is reported as damaged or faulty, customers are required to notify us within a reasonable period after discovering the issue and provide evidence so that we can investigate and, where appropriate, offer a repair, replacement, or refund in line with their statutory rights.

In this case, the issue was reported well outside our returns period and after the fabric had been in the customer's possession for a considerable length of time. This made it impossible for us to determine whether the issue was present at the point of supply or had occurred subsequently.

We take our legal obligations seriously and comply with UK consumer legislation. We are sorry that we were unable to reach a resolution that satisfied you.

Kind regards,
Neil

Two months to fix incorrect order

At first my order wasn’t dispatched until I chased it up, then I was sent the incorrect fabric and it took two months to receive the correct fabric. Had to send multiple emails and either got no response or a different excuse each time why the new fabric hadn’t been sent. When it finally did arrive, it still didn’t match the swatch I’d ordered previously but was close enough that I kept it. Great fabrics but won’t be purchasing again.

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re very sorry that this issue took so long to resolve.

Unfortunately, after the incorrect fabric was identified, there were delays in sourcing and dispatching the replacement, and we appreciate that the communication throughout the process did not meet the standard you should expect. We understand how frustrating it must have been to repeatedly chase for updates over such a long period.

We are pleased that the replacement fabric was ultimately close enough for your project, but we fully accept that the overall experience was disappointing.

Thank you for your comments, which will be used to help improve our processes and communication going forward.

Kind regards,
Neil

I purchased a Oliso mini iron it worked…

I purchased a Oliso mini iron it worked fine for just under 12 months then it stopped. I contacted Oh Sew Crafty they paid the postage for me to return the iron. As soon as they received the iron they sent me a new replacement after having the replacement for two months that stopped working too so I contacted oh so crafty again. they again paid for the return postage. Because the original payment was on over 14 months ago, it took a while to process the refund, but I did get in the end my money back.
I must state at this point that it was not Oh So Crafty’s fault it was obviously a design fault by Oliso . Customer service for such a small family run business was exemplary and I would not hesitate to purchase any of there products again.

Not impressed

Not impressed, especially with them not answering phone and having to speak via email where they were very Cold. On my 1st order I received an email several days later to say one of the items was actually out of stock. Then when I received the other item I'd ordered it came in 2 pieces although the website says fabric is sent as one piece. No one answered the phone so i had to liaise via email and they are very cold and unhelpful. I actually felt it was my fault they had sent fabric in 2 pieces. They claim to be a small family firm and need business but they need to learn customer services. Look after your customers or they'll go elsewhere.
Note... further to Oh Sew Crafty response below... at no point was I asked if sending the fabric in 2 pieces was acceptable and they did NOT as detailed below send any extra to compensate.

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear you were unhappy with your experience.

As explained at the time, one item in your order unfortunately became out of stock due to stock discrepancies between our shop and online platforms, and we informed you as soon as this was identified.

Regarding the fabric arriving in two pieces, while we always aim to send fabric in one continuous length, occasionally this is not possible due to supplier joins or faults within the roll. In these situations we generally send extra fabric to compensate.

We appreciate that email communication may not have felt as personal as you would have liked, however as a busy small family business we manage most customer service enquiries this way so that we can keep accurate records and respond as efficiently as possible.

We are sorry you felt disappointed and do appreciate your comments.

They take payment for out os stock items

I placed an order for some yarn. They accepted payment and gave a despatch date of 2 days. But I never received it. They do not use a parcel tracking service because, having read the authentic reviews on Trust Pilot, it seems they take your money for out of stock items. So when I emailed them and pointed out that if the item was out of stock and it has not been despatched then they are in breach of contract, it was no surprise that they replied “Unfortunately, the item you ordered has sold out in our shop while we were processing your order”. If this was the case then why didn’t they contact me immediately. I had to chase them when my order didn’t arrive, surely it doesn’t take them a week to process an order. And they should check their stock before giving a despatch date. This practice is a major red flag to me. I’ve been informed that a refund is on its way. Would not recommend.

We’re sorry you feel this way, however we would like to clarify a few points.

We do not intentionally sell items that are out of stock. As a business operating both a physical shop and multiple online platforms, stock levels can occasionally change while orders are being processed, particularly with popular items such as yarns and fabrics.

As soon as we identified that the item had sold out, you were informed and a refund was arranged immediately. We appreciate this was disappointing, but this was not a case of taking payment without intention to supply.

All orders are processed in the order they are received, and tracking is provided on dispatched parcels where applicable.

We regret that this experience did not meet your expectations, but we do reject the suggestion that stock discrepancies are intentional or misleading.

Best online experience and service I’ve had to date

I was having difficulty identifying the colours of the cottons I wanted on the website. I emailed them asking for help. They got back to me the same day and were incredibly helpful, polite and friendly. With their help I identified and ordered the colours I needed. The prices were very reasonable too.

My package arrived well packed and everything was perfect.

I will definitely use them again and would have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and family.

Thank you for being amazingly helpful 😊

Great service

My ethos is to support small and family run businesses and it’s great when you get brilliant service and products at a good price. I had a small issue that was dealt with extremely well and efficiently. I will most definitely be using them again.

Well done and keep up the good work 🥰

I had my order changed 3 times each…

I had my order changed 3 times each time being told that what I had ordered was no longer in stock, even after I paid extra after the first cancellation to get a different fabric. A real shame I don’t think I will be using this company again. The changes also took ages to arrive it was a full week after my first order before I was told they had run out. Some serious work need to be done with regard to stock control and website management. Even after my order was changed the “sold out” products still appear on the website as available. The fabric actually arrived today (8th May having been ordered on the 24th April) and was good quality fabric such a shame that the organisation has let you all down.

We’re very sorry for the frustration caused with your order.

Unfortunately, on this occasion we experienced multiple stock discrepancies while processing your order, which meant alternatives had to be offered more than once. We completely understand how disappointing and inconvenient this was, particularly given the delays involved.

As a business operating both a physical shop and multiple online platforms, stock can occasionally change unexpectedly, especially with popular fabrics. That said, we fully accept your comments regarding stock control and website updates, and this is something we are continually working to improve.

We do appreciate your positive comments about the quality of the fabric received, and we’re sorry that the ordering experience did not reflect that standard.

The wrong material was sent

The wrong material was sent: as it was sent to a relative the error wasn’t spotted until the material had been cut. An apology given but no gesture of goodwill for the error the cost of which has been born by the customer.

We’re very sorry that the wrong material was sent with your order. As soon as this was brought to our attention, we did apologise for the mistake.

Unfortunately, because the fabric had already been cut before the issue was identified, it limited the options available to us for resolving the matter further.

We do understand your frustration, and while mistakes can occasionally happen, they are never intentional. We appreciate your comments and will use them to help improve our processes going forward.
