I bought the underwater disco lightshow after seeing it on TV. It was a complete waste of money as it is not waterproof.

I ordered a customised batman figure on 19/6 for my husbands birthday which is 21/8. I received confirmation of my order saying it would take 4 - 6 weeks which is plenty of time. On 29/7 I chased them as it was only 3 weeks until his birthday. I received a reply saying the following: - Our Personalised Superhero Action Figures take from 4 to 6 weeks to be manufactured. You can expect your action figure to be dispatched any day from now to 17th September. If you have not received your action figure by 17th September, please let me know and I can investigate further for you. The 17/9 is almost a month past his birthday which is also 3 months since I ordered the figure. Surely it shouldn't take 3 months when they say 4 to 6 weeks. 3 days before his birthday I received the following email: Unfortunately, our partner was unable to create a Personalised Superhero Action Figure with the images that you provided - Unfortunately, it may take a further 4 - 6 weeks to get the replacement out to you. Why was I only told 2 months after the order that there was a problem with the photos. Great birthday surprise NOT !!! I sent in further photos and after waiting until 19/10, several follow up emails with no reply and still not receiving the action figure I finally gave up and cancelled. Very disappointed with the service and was left with no birthday present. Will definitely never use this company again.

We were very excited about the bath disco light - we received it very quickly - ran out to buy batteries that weren't included all for bath time for our son who has autism and who we knew would absolutely love it. We made sure everything was secured to the max but after 3 minutes in the bath it stopped working much to our son's immense distress. Apparently not 100% waterproof as advertised. Waste of time, batteries and postage costs. Eventually did get a full refund. Don't waste your money.

Overpriced mediocre stuff. Late arrival. No tracking number. Terrible customer service.

Perhaps they are better suited selling in the UK only. They ship internationally with a service that has no tracking. I paid for an item at this point over a month ago, had to dispute it and file a claim with PayPal as the response from Firebox was repeatedly for me to go check my "sorting office" (post office) to see if they happened to hold it there. The USPS does not make a habit of holding packages, and with no tracking, I have no way to account that they actually sent anything - as far as I know they sent nothing, I received nothing, and have had to bring in the payment company just to get a refund. Shipping issue notwithstanding, I saw the same exact item as I 'purchased' from them on Amazon for under half the price, with shipping included. Overcharged and undershipped is no way to go through life.

Well, the order shipped on 09/03/15 and I haven't received it yet. So you might want to make sure that happens before you send out review requests.

This swan broke on the first time it was used in the swimming pool! The entire wing ripped off and it instantly deflated, a total waste of £50

I have purchased one of these before with no issues (apart from the phone later being stolen!) I repurchased for my replacement phone and have been very disappointed. There's an air bubble that just will not budge and the protector's scratched almost immediately despite very little use, no drops, and the phone being well cared for. For nearly £20, I definitely expected better.

I never got what I ordered, it feels like you've robbed me and there's nothing I can do, so thank you for absolutely nothing

Hi there Scott, I'm really sorry to here that you haven't received your order yet. It really should have arrived by now, so I'm afraid it does look like it's become lost on it's way to you. If you could contact our customer service team, we will happily sort this all out for you.

I'm still waiting for my sons birthday present, I paid next day delivery and it didn't arrive, then firebox refunded the delivery and I tracked the parcel to be told that delivery was attempted but no access to property which is rubbish as we have a huge drive that hasn't been blocked all day, there is a post office within 1 minute walk from my house so why would they not leave it there? So disappointing for my son who's birthday has now gone so this will now arrive far too late!

This was not was I was expecting, flower seeds, cheese making kit, popcorn and a false is not worth £35 and definately nothing my mum would want for Mother's Day! This was meant to help me by being a surprise and something that is for those who are stuck on what to get, well now I'm running round trying to find something since this is not what I want at all :(

very disappointed with the company, the virtual head set that i brought as a gift was mis sold to me, the packaging stated that the apps where downloadable from apple, android and windows phone. They're not. The windows phone apps didn't work at all, and as for firebox admitting to there mistake there wasn't much said. No apology and submissive to say that they had packaged a product wrongly when in clear writing it stated on the box!. won't be buying from here again!.
