While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

We ordered Frankie Owens' Little Book of Prisons, a short but invaluable primer for those facing incarceration in the British legal system. Copies arrived swiftly.

I am sorry that this international parcel has somehow been lost. It was sent shortly after you placed your order so it should have arrived by now. A full refund can be issued or a replacement book can be sent, via a different service. I believe my colleague has been in touch, and will be happy to arrange either for you.

We are sorry that your book has not yet arrived. On checking I can see that (as it says on our website pre-purchase) this book is "Forthcoming. Pre-order now for immediate despatch on publication" and the button you clicked says "Pre-order now". The book is due for released on 7 February, but we do send pre-orders as soon as we have stock available, which may be sooner. We would appreciate if you would edit your review in light of this information, which was available at the time of purchase.

Waterside Press and Arthur Bostrom…

Waterside Press and Arthur Bostrom (Officer Crabrtree) of "Allo, Allo" fame, went above and beyond to send my daughter a signed copy of "Good Moaning France" in time for Christmas. This was arranged at very short notice with Mr Bostrom kindly taking timeout to add a humorous note, as well as a good luck card with lovely professional advice for Natalia's future in the world of theatre. So nice. Thank you.

We are sorry that this title has been unavoidably delayed. As you have pre-ordered direct from us (the publishers) you will be amongst the first to receive it. Alternatively we will be happy to refund you at any point if you prefer not to wait.

Having tried on several occasions to order "Good Moaning France" but not being successful, possibly due to a computer glitch, I received an e-mail from Waterside which set it up for me. I then managed to order it successfully and the product arrived in the post within two or three days.
