Excellent customer service

I subscribed to the WH Combat Patrol Collection for the past 2 years. Excellent collection, considerably less than RRP for the models. There were only a couple of missing / broken parts during the subscription, which were replaced immediately with no problems. Excellent customer service team.

This is how doing a partwork is supposed to be. Working through the Ford XB Falcon model from Hachette Collections in the USA. Twenty deliveries in. All on time. No broken parts. Expedient shipping. I have loved this high quality build. Almost to the end! I can’t wait to see what my next collection will be from Hachette Collections because the experience has been a dream on this one!

Happy Repeat Customer

The subscription I am currently receiving is running well, and this time around hey are using a reliable and predictable delivery service so I have no real complaints other than being effectively ignored by their customer service system when I had a complaint about missing products, which went unresolved. It didn't matter enough to keep me from doing a second subscription and I plan to purchase any other similar subscriptions they offer in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that your current subscription is running smoothly and that our improved delivery service has met your expectations. However, I’m truly sorry to learn about your previous experience with our customer service and the unresolved issue regarding missing products—that’s certainly not the experience we want for our valued subscribers.

If you are still experiencing any issues or if there’s anything else we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to email us at customer_service_uk@contact.hachettepartworks.com with the subject “TrustPilot Review,” along with your subscription number and full address. We’d appreciate the chance to look into this further and ensure you’re fully supported.

Thank you again for sticking with us and considering future collections. We look forward to making your next experiences even better.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I’m really sorry to hear about the difficulty you experienced with your motor and the way your concerns were handled—that certainly isn’t the level of service we aim to provide. I completely understand your frustration when you felt your issue wasn’t believed, and I appreciate your honesty. It’s great to hear that, despite this, you had other positive interactions with our staff.

So we can look into this further and hopefully restore your confidence in our support, could you please email us at customer_service_uk@contact.hachettepartworks.com? Please use the subject “TrustPilot Review” and include your subscription number and full address, so we can investigate this for you.

Looking forward to resolving this for you.
