I ordered for Mother’s Day and only received the gift today (Wednesday) because the parcel was delivered and I wasn’t advised where it was left! It’s only because I chased up the parcel that I was told! Won’t be ordering again!

Reply from Virginia Hayward
Good Morning,
Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry you are disappointed. Your two hampers were delivered on your requested date by DPD on Friday 13th March however no one was available at your address on the delivery attempt so the parcels were delivered to your neighbour directly across the road from you.
We are always available to help our customers with parcel tracking and as soon as you contacted us via email on Monday we advised it was with your neighbour.
Kind Regards
Isabella

Birthday wine and cheese box
I would have given 5 stars except the birthday message to the recipient was not put in the box so he didn’t know who sent it him! Other than that it arrived on time and was perfectly packaged.
