Hi there Jack, Thank you for taking the time to review us - we appreciate it. We apologize that your Valentine's Mystery Box order did not meet your expectations. Our buying team works hard to ensure that the contents of each box are carefully crafted to offer customers a good saving over buying the items individually. Our customer service team have been in touch and hopefully a satisfactory resolution has been reached for you. All the best Firebox

Hi Daisy, Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you did not receive your package. This is extremely annoying. Our customer service team has already contacted you in this case. Unfortunately, your parcel is "stuck" somewhere or has been lost by Yodel. Of course, we have initiated a full refund, which should have arrived in the meantime. We apologize once again for the inconvenience caused and hope that you will give us a second chance. Best regards Firebox

Hello, Claire, Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you had to wait so long for your ordered item here. This is extremely annoying. Our customer service team has already contacted you and offered a partial refund to make up for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, we have not received a reply to our proposal. Perhaps you would like to write back to us so that we can arrange a refund for you? We would be very happy if you would give us a second chance so that we can show you that we can do better. Take care Firebox

Hi Ellen, thank you for sharing your last Firebox experience. First of all, we would like to sincerely apologize for the late delivery. This should not happen even in stressful times. Unfortunately, it did happen and we are very sorry that we also left someone without a gift. Customer service has tried to find a satisfactory solution and we hope that refunding half of the amount will be satisfactory for you. We would be happy if you continue to be loyal to us as a customer despite the error with the order. Kind regards Firebox

Hi there Antony, Thank you for taking your time to review your Firebox experience - we appreciate it. We sincerely apologize that your timely order arrived well after Christmas. This should never have happened, but unfortunately, it did and it is annoying that due to this issue someone did not receive the gift at Christmas. Through our partner, we were informed that some orders in December could not be processed and this happened in January. The problems are now fixed but this is of course not helpful for you in retrospect. Customer service has already contacted you and has hopefully been able to find a satisfactory solution with the refund of half of your purchase amount. All the best Firebox

Hi there Daniels, thank you for taking your time to review us. We apologize that unfortunately our Fresh Faces were not delivered in time for Christmas and you could give to someone dear as planned. There were problems with the Fresh Faces at the worst time of the year, of all times, and the orders were not processed and shipped to customers - or not until January 2022. Customer service has already contacted you and hopefully, they were able to find a satisfactory solution with a refund of half of your purchase amount. However, we would be very pleased if you would give us another chance so that we can show you our normal standard of service. This is usually much better than what was shown with the last order. Kind regards Firebox

“I ordered these well in time for Christmas. They did not arrive on time. I received an email in January notifying me that they would arrive soon. They still have not arrived and now you would like me to review the product that didn't arrive and the service that was so poor you couldn't get in touch to let me know that this Christmas gift wouldn't be here on time.”

Hi Hayley, thank you so much for your review - we appreciate it. First, we would like to sincerely apologize for the poor handling of your order and that you were unhappy with the processing and late delivery. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the "Fresh Faces" and they had to be reworked. We also thank you for the honest words about your review with our customer service and we completely understand, because with the way the whole order went you just received poor service. Of course, though, we would love for you to give us another chance so that we can show that the service is much better than you experienced. Take care Firebox

Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for your review - we appreciate it. We apologize that you haven't received the shipment yet but the item has an ETA of up to 19 business days (MO-FR) and your order was dispatched directly from the partner in the US on 01/24/2022. Our Customer Service has provided you with the necessary tracking information and the Fresh Faces should be delivered in the next few days. Over the next week, customer service will contact you again to see if the delivery went well and if you are happy with the item. All the best Firebox

“Absolutely awful - wish I could give you 0 stars. Service has plummeted over the past year and will NEVER order from your site again. Will also be warning everyone I know about your rubbish service. Item was over one month late, delivered the the wrong address and damaged.”

Hi Jasmine, thank you to share your last Firebox experience. We would like to sincerely apologize for the bad process with your order. Especially during the Christmas season, when everyone is waiting for the gifts and then mistakes happen, it is of course even more annoying and we are sorry if we ruined your gift. We hope that our customer service was able to solve the problem with you and that the solution with the given refund is also to your satisfaction. We would be happy if you don't turn your back on us despite all the hassle, because our service is better than we showed when you placed your order. All the best Firebox

Hi Stefanie, thank you for taking the time to review your last Firebox experience. We apologize that unfortunately our Brick Yourself keychains were not delivered in time for Christmas and you could give them to a loved one as planned. Needless to say, it is very annoying when a package of gifts does not arrive when you are waiting for it. Customer service has already contacted you and we hope that the solution found was satisfactory. All the best Firebox

Hi Jamie, thank you for taking the time to share your Firebox experience with our community. First, we would like to sincerely apologize for the lack of delivery and communication. This should not happen even in stressful times. Unfortunately, it happened and we are very sorry that we also left someone without a gift. Customer service has been working to find a satisfactory solution and hopefully, the full refund is satisfactory to you. As compensation, we have sent you a voucher and we would be very happy if you use it for a new order where we can show you that our service is better than you experienced with your last order. All the best Firebox

“Genuinely concerned this is a scam of some sort or just a poorly run company? I placed an order for the holidays in early December and as I type this January 23rd, 2022, after being reassured by Sven the order was placed - I have yet to receive anything from this company. What a let down, please beware and learn from my mistake.”

Hi Maggie, thank you so much for taking the time to review us - we appreciate it. We sincerely apologize for the poor process of your order and that you were unhappy with the handling and late delivery. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the "Fresh Faces" and they had to be reworked. The poor communication has given you the impression that you have been taken in by a scam company, but our Customer service has contacted you and hopefully, the agreed solution with the full refund and the received item has convinced you otherwise.

“Ordered on the 7th Dec still no update on the 20th so I email (after my what's app was ignored) to find out my order wasn't processed properly and they placed the order again for me but wouldn't be until after Christmas that it arrived. Email again for another update to then get a reply on the 12th January to say again my order wasn't processed and they've refunded me. So not only was I down a gift for my partner who works away I also got the same bull excuse.”

“I am very unhappy with Firebox as for a purchase on your site less than 20 € I had to pay custom fees of 25 € which is unacceptable and on which you should have drawn my attention- no way to contact you so you have definitively lost a client!!!!”

Hi Patricia, Through the review, we have been informed that you are not satisfied with the delivery of your order. On our site, the FAQ states that duties may apply outside the UK, as the UK is no longer in the EU. However, the duties depend on the country, Firebox has no influence on this. We are happy to accommodate you and cover part of the customs costs, for example half of the cost. You are also welcome to use our partner shop for France Cadeauxfolies in the EU. There are no additional costs. https://www.cadeauxfolies.fr/ As a courtesy, we have arranged for a refund to be made to you. We hope that we have been able to restore your customer satisfaction with this gesture. We would be pleased if you would order from us again in the future. We wish you a great day Firebox

“I ordered two items, both for a Christmas present. After not been delivery I emailed before Christmas however got no reply. It was only after sending a second email I got a responce saying my order was not processed correctly and asked if I would still like my order or a refund. I replied asking for my order before recieving another reply saying one of the items was out of stock now (had been in stock when i ordered). As a result I had to get a refund on this item and order from Amazon instead. Item that was delivered (eventually) was satisfactory however overall a disapointing experience.”

Hello Euan, Thank you for taking the time to review your order experience with Firebox. First of all, we would like to sincerely apologise for ruining a Christmas gift from you. Of course, this was not our intention, but unfortunately, the mistake happened with the oversell. The late response from customer service should also not have happened and we are sincerely sorry for this. Normally the process and customer service at Firebox are very good. We would be happy if you gave us another chance to show this. Customer service will contact you again. All the best.
