Purchased a crossbody bag intended for…

Purchased a crossbody bag intended for my wife for Christmas. It was a new release and the website stated “crossbody bag for delivery following the 15th of December”. I therefore assumed, but clearly incorrectly that it would be delivered from the 15 December with the possibility it would be arriving before Christmas. Despite emailing them on multiple occasions, I have received no response or confirmation when this is likely to be received!
A company is only as strong as its consumers and given its poor customer service. I will not be purchasing from this company again.

We’re really sorry for this, Nick. We can see how frustrating that must have been, especially ordering for Christmas.

Your order was held up in customs and communication on our side was not good enough. That’s not an excuse and we should have handled this much better.

We also recognise the pre-order messaging was not clear enough, which added to the confusion.

We did reach out to try and resolve this but haven’t heard back. If you’re still open to it, please email us at hello@kindbag.co and we will make this right for you.

Waited over a month for a poor item

I ordered a lunch bag on 18 November as a gift. The design I originally wanted was out of stock so I ordered a different design. 2 weeks later I had received nothing and contacted Kind. They advised my purchase had been a pre-order (entirely unclear from the website) but reassured me stock would be arriving the next week. There were plenty of marketing emails through though and Kind trying to sell me other products with their email stating they hope I was enjoying my lunch bag!!

There was another email recognising the delay and advising a free gift would be included.

I contacted them again after a FURTHER 2 weeks with no item received and got a reply a few days later saying the bag should be shipped soon.

I received the bag today, 5 weeks after ordering, completely crushed and misshapen in poor packaging, not reflective of the price paid and not looking suitable for a gift. The ‘roll top’ image on the picture is also not how the bag looks, the top clips shut with just one button and there is no roll top feature meaning the handles are too short for the bag and the shape looks totally different than on the website.

Quality is not what I’d expect for £30 either, with material feeling really plasticky, and there was no free gift included as I was advised it would be to apologise for the delay.

It’s also arrived much too late to even be used for the event and intended recipient.

Unless you’re happy waiting over a month for an expensive, substandard item, I’d avoid this company.

We’re really sorry for your experience, Elle. We can see how frustrating that must have been, especially with the delays and when the item was intended as a gift.

Your order was impacted by pre-order timing and delays in transit, but we should have communicated this much more clearly and kept you better updated throughout.

On the product itself, this is not the feedback we typically receive, but we do take it seriously and would like to look into this further for you.

We’d really like to put this right. Please email us at hello@kindbag.co with your order details and we will resolve this as a priority.

We’re really sorry for this, Marie. We can see how frustrating and disappointing that must have been, especially ordering for Christmas.

We had a perfect storm of issues hit us at that time as a small business, but that’s no excuse. We should have communicated better and resolved this much faster.

We have tried to reach out to get this sorted but haven’t heard back yet. If you’re still open to it, please email us at hello@kindbag.co with your order details and we will prioritise this and make it right.

My partner ordered me a bag in November…

My partner ordered me a bag in November 2024 for a birthday present and I have used it every day for my commute to work. Unfortunately a couple of the handles failed due to the stitch work and a hole developed in the secret pocket stitching at the back. I emailed kind ago asking questions about the expected lifespan and weight limit, wondering if I had overloaded it and instead they ended up sending me a brand new bag for free! Cannot fault the customer service and quick replies to emails.

Scam and Avoid

Scam, avoid this Company, absolute lies!!!!

Ordered a bag on 22nd November 2025 for express delivery, it was in stock on website but as with everyone they say its on pre order, many many emails sent to clarify and customer service is awful - they have also deleted two previous negative trust pilot reviews I wrote. They have now stopped responding and wont issue me a refund. I feel sorry for everyone who has ordered from this Company it is a scam, will keep writing to help people. Disgrace!!!

In response to your response, I have not received any email about a refund or confirming this has been processed? I await your confirmation and proof of a refund has been processed as I've lost all trust and confidence I would live evidence to show of this please sent to myself.

Issues resolved

Updated - following the pre Christmas disaster the company reached out with an apology, explanation and voucher. Ordered two bags, both arrived quickly and very nice and quality made. Thank you for recognising the issues and working to resolve them.

Avoid - ordered on 10th November for pre order dispatch w/c 17th November. Here we are a month later no product, barely get a response by email and no telephone number to use. no sign of a dispatch. Missed the event this was a gift for. Asked for refund, ignored. Now pursuing through my credit card. Just appalling customer service. I read the reviews but actually this company seems to be a scam!

Hi Zoe, I'm so sorry to hear that we weren't able to deliver your gift before the event. Sadly, due to our shipment being held up by customs we had to further delay our pre-orders. I believe this was refunded upon request for you and if there is anything else we can help with please do reach out to us again.

Quick to take your money but don’t want to return it

Happy with the item when it arrived however I realised I had double bought this Xmas present. Followed website instructions to return. Paid for postage myself and sent the email to say I had processed the return. No reply, until a week later when I had chased up as it said it had been delivered to their warehouse and returns take 7 working days which is had been over. Had an email from customer service finally saying refund was on its way, this was days ago and I am STILL waiting for an email to say money is returning back to my bank account. Not sure if this is a scam or they just aren’t good at processing refunds. Very disappointed

There were delays on our side processing returns at that time, which is not the standard we aim for.

Nice product, terrible customer service

My partner bought me a lovely laptop case from Kind Bag for my birthday. I had wanted it for a while so my birthday seemed like a perfect time. Unfortunately, two days after my birthday my mother-in-law had a terrible fall; she fell on the Thursday night and we didn't find her until Saturday morning, leading to 11 days in hospital. All this is to say that I didn't try my gifts straightaway, and by the time the crisis was over and I was looking at things, it was outside the standard returns window.

The case didn't fit my laptop; it said the case was for a 16" laptop but I guess my case was just outside the measurements. So I emailed Kind Bag because we didn't want a refund, just maybe an exchange. The case is in all its original packaging. I didn't hear back so I emailed again, and then my partner emailed. We haven't heard anything. I'm just really disappointed because this is a brand that I was looking forward to having pieces from. If they didn't want to do an exchange I could have lived with that but just to not reply at all was so rude! I couldn't in good conscience recommend.

Edited to add: checked Spam folders before I left this review as I could see that was a standard response. Have checked again, nothing there.

Hi Laura, we’re really sorry for your experience and for the lack of response you received. That’s not the level of service we aim to provide.

We understand the situation you were dealing with and we should have handled this with more care and flexibility, especially given the circumstances.

We did send replies at the time, but clearly they didn’t reach you, and we should have followed up in other ways rather than leaving you without an answer.

We’d really like to resolve this for you. Please email us at hello@kindbag.co and we will prioritise your case and make this right.

Lunch bag…

I purchased a couple of beautiful lunch bags back at the beginning of the year. Had an issue with one of them recently (they were both bought as presents so weren’t used until not long ago) and emailed Kind just on the off chance they would look at it. I had binned all previous emails, receipts so had no proof of purchase. Had an amazingly quick, polite reply from Nathan at Kind apologising and saying they would replace free of charge - which they have. I am 100% convinced this is the best customer service I have ever received. You know how you wish a company would treat you? Well they do. Well done Kind Bags. Above and beyond.

My Go To Tote

I have bought several of these Kind bags as I find them so useful & they have become an essential day to day item. I have different patterns & love them all. I carry them in my handbag, car & they make a perfect beach bag.

Kind bags - kind staff

Kind bag is a good store to buy bags from. The staff are as kind as their bags. I have bought several bags. They fold up small and are light. I always carry a couple in my handbag.

Best recycled shopping bags

I have been buying medium shopping bags from Kind Bag for a while now and I love them. I have purchased for myself and as gifts, they are really practical, super strong and you can fit loads in a bag. They are easy to clean and best of all 100% recycled. I totally recommend kind bag bags, you won’t be disappointed.
Good luck choosing what design to have, so many beautiful bags to pick from, I always take ages choosing.

Kind Bags are the BEST! Beautiful, original designs - something for every taste. I bought one for myself, then bought them for friends and family as gifts. I would never buy from anywhere else.
