I wasn't happy with the contents of the box since I only received one item and didn't see any advantage to it, especially since I found the item for a lower price than what I paid for the box.

In any case, I have already cancelled my subscription. I hope that in the future, you will make an effort to ensure that your customers are happy and pleasantly surprised.

Not worth the money

Not worth the money. I fet the intro box was at a reduced price but a Bluetooth speaker you xan pick up from anywhere is not what I call an introduction into new gadgets.
Not worth the money.

Mystery box (£72.98)

Purchased the mystery box (£72.98) down to £50. Received a tiny wireless speaker and a carbon fibre card holder. Would definitely NOT recommend.

When I reserved my box I was very disappointed with it's contents. There was 3 items inside all as disappointing as the next & definitely 100% does not add up to £79. Its not even close. I wouldn't recommend to a friend.

When I first tried to make a purchase using a voucher from byagift, I experienced loads of issues, I contacted the site several times , but eventually got a response and my issue was resolved. Although I have received my first of two gifts, I possibly wouldn’t use them again.
