Really unhappy with the customer…

Really unhappy with the customer service. A incorrect photo of the item was online so I was under the impression I was getting something that did not arrive. As I’d had it gift wrapped and given the gift before realising. I was told by customer service to return it as the only option, this wasn’t possible after giving the gift. I was met with very inflexible and rude customer service, no suggestions of “let’s see what we can do” or “let’s try and make it right”. Really unhappy with the experience and wouldn’t recommend. I understand as a small business owner myself that you can’t make it work financially if you’re always sending freebies out (but I didn’t ask for this) and again as a small business owner you get the benefit of being able to think outside the box and treat customers with extra care. This was definitely not the 5 star customer service suggested.

Added after reply: yes a full refund was offered but only if the gift was sent back… which I am unable to do as it’s been gifted (to a 4 year old who doesn’t live locally). It may not be rude by your standards but being met with coldness and lack of flexibility or understanding seems pretty rude to me.

I am sorry you are unhappy with your purchase. One of the photos relating to this product featured a different version of the kit you bought, a newer version which we do not stock. This has now been removed from our website. It was a mistake which I have apologised for.
As the owner of this business I am fully aware of the correspondence which took place outside of Trustpilot. You were offered a full refund (I note you do not mention this in your review) and at no point was anybody rude to you.

Hi Sicheng. Your order was dispatched on 12th December but the Royal Mail were on strike for two days last week so there have been delays as a result. That said, I have just checked the tracking of your parcel and an attempt to deliver was made this morning but nobody was in. I hope that helps. Nicola.

What a wonderful company

What a wonderful company! Ordering was easy alongside a decent Black Friday discount. I received my order quickly; gift wrapped with a hand written note of thanks! Very personal, which makes a change. I will order from them again for sure!

I'm sorry you are dissatisfied with the service you received. We took a break over the summer and indicated on our website that orders would be delayed as a result of this. I also responded to your message whilst I was on holiday to let you know this. Happy to hear you are pleased with your purchase however.
