“Gift was well wrapped but they forgot the chocolates. It wasn’t as good as I was hoping for. To rectify this they just sent the chocolates late. I would have expected a little more to rectify their mistake.”

Hello Andrew, Thank you for your review. As per our emails to you earlier this week, we are very sorry indeed that the chocolates were missing from you order. On the rare and unfortunate occasion that an item is missing from a customer's order, we always try to rectify this as swiftly as possible by sending out the item that was missing with our premium delivery service, as we did for you. Regrettably from time to time we do make mistakes and for this we apologise. We do not take this lightly and we are always working to improve our processes to try and stop these kind of errors. Kind regards, Jaye @ Customer Services

“Delivery and communication excellent. Purchased 4 Dunoon cairngorm mugs in January for everyday use. These mugs look attractive, are pricey and unfortunately stain very badly. After a few uses, I find it necessary to soak the mugs in a recommended cleaner to get rid of the unsightly stains. I prefer bone China mugs and have several but these are most definitely the worst for staining. Does anyone else have this problem or is it the glaze in my batch which is problematic?”

Good morning, Thank you for your Review. I am very sorry to hear that your Dunoon mug is beginning to stain. Dunoon advise that it may help if the mugs are rinsed immediately after use, as any residue left in them may result in discolouration from the tannins present in tea and coffee and if there are stains developing inside a mug ,to fill the mug with water and add a small drop of bleach, leave overnight and then rinse well. This will not harm the glaze but will remove the stains. We can also advise you for the safest long-term protection to wash the mugs by hand using a mild detergent and a soft cloth, please avoid abrasive cleaners and scourers as these can scratch the glaze. Please see the link below for more information for this. https://www.temptationgifts.com/gifts-by-brand/dunoon/caring-instructions If the mug continues to stain, please drop us an email to let us know and we can of course look into this further. Kind regards, Jaye @ Customer Services

Hello Dawn, Thank you for your review. I am sorry you are not happy with the colour of the Christmas Holly & Berry Fabric Placemat compared to the Christmas Holly & Berry Set of 4 Napkins. I will pass the comments onto the marketing team to see if we can make the colour of the Christmas Holly & Berry Fabric Placemats more clear on our site. Kind regards, Jaye @ Customer Services

“I made purchases as xmas gift so am unlikely to be able to make any useful comment other than they look alright. I am flooded with these reviews from everyone and deleting them is ignored and they continue to send which becomes irritating. If the recipient of my gifts complains at xmas then I will be in touch. My silence should indicate that all is well. Complaints generally indicate if the company has a problem and needs further investigation. Please do not send me any more. I had been debating whether to purchse anything else but have been put off by all companies doing these surveys. This is the only response I intend to make so have a good xmas and dont read too much into surveys. They are one persons opinion. Best wishes”

“Certainly nice products but one thing was odd. One item I ordered for £7.99 was, I was advised, out of stock and therefore they gave me a refund. Fine. I was able to find it in my local shop but at a price of £9.99 and so asked if they could refund the difference. No, was the answer. But I then noticed that the item in question was in stock again (after 1 day!!) and at a new price of £9.99. All sounds a little odd to me.”

Hello Richard, Thank you for your feedback. As explained in our previous email correspondence, when you placed your order, we were regrettably out of stock of the scarf, but have now received a delivery from our supplier, which is why the scarf is now showing back on our website. We are sorry that we were unable to send the scarf out to you, and arranged a refund instead and provided a free delivery code for your next order. At the time you placed your order we were in our black Friday sale which was an online promotion only and this is why the scarf was priced at £7.99. Unfortunately this promotion ended midnight Monday and the price reverted back to £9.99. Once again please accept our apologies for the disappointment caused. Kind regards, Rebecca, Customer Service.

Couldn’t get through to DPD, ended up having to walk round al the others houses that have the same door number to try and find it.”

“The ordering and delivery was very efficient and easy, but the incorrect item was delivered. I ordered a large pillar candle in winter glow. All reference was made to this item, both on your e mails and the delivery note, but a large jar candle was sent. I considered returning it but, as it was the winter glow I wanted, I decided to keep it. I am not leaving a review as requested below as I have never used a jar candle before.”

“Items are great but were seriously over packaged. I wouldn’t use this company again on that basis. 2 small mugs wrapped in tissue then bubble wrap then a box each. These were box then in a second box each with airbag type protection then gift wrapped though I didn’t request it then to top it off they were then in a third box with more packaging. I get they were China a needed to be carefully wrapped but that was more than overkill. Come on guys consider the environmental impact.”

Good afternoon, Thank you for your feedback. I will of course pass this onto our picking and packing team. The mugs were both in the gift boxes that you requested and paid for. I am sorry that they then in two more boxes plus gift wrapped. This must have been a mistake from one of our packers. Normally, the mugs are in bubble wrap and tissues and then in one single box with the air bubbles so that the mugs do not break in shipment. However, of course as a company we try and be as environmentally friendly as we can and we are always trying to find ways to improve this, so your feedback is very valued to us. Kind regards and have a lovely weekend, Jaye @ Customer Services

Hello Heather, thank you for your feedback. Having checked with our limited Royal Mail tracking is looks like delivery was attempted on 23rd but unfortunately there was no one home to accept delivery, so the parcel is held at your local sorting office.

“Their policy is to not ship a replacement if they send you an incorrect item, and then only refund part of the flat rate shipping along with the refund for the non-shipped item. Fair-ish, but not really how fixing business mistakes works in the real world. I suspect millennials run this business. The products are lovely, which got their rating from poor to acceptable.”

Hello David, thank you for your feedback, i am very sorry that you received an incorrect item, however as per our email correspondence, unfortunately due to the high cost of international shipping, we have a strict policy of giving refunds in cases such as these, rather than re-sending the stock. We are always keen to make amends to our customers where possible but regrettably re-sending orders internationally simply is not a viable option for us. If there is a difference in the shipping cost for the items received and the items ordered will will refund any additional shipping charge due, and i can confirm that we refunded this ti you as well. my sincere apologies once again that your order contained a wrong item, kind regards, Rebecca , Customer Service.

We select the item at random and this dependent on the colours were have in stock at the time of the order, unfortunately we cannot guarantee the colour you will receive .
