“I recently purchased a pair of personalised golden anniversary china mugs for my friends. The quality was excellent and I could include a personalised message engraved on the back which made them extra special. I was delighted with them and so were the recipients. The dispatch and delivery were very quick. My reason for not giving a five-star rating is that initially the mugs sent had 'diamond' instead of 'golden' anniversary engraved on them. Having said that, the problem was dealt with very efficiently and correct replacements were sent promptly and delivered in time for the important date. I will certainly be purchasing from The Gift Experience in the future.”

“I recently bought a cushion as an anniversary present for friends. I found the site easy to use. The item itself was of good quality and value for money. My friends were also delighted when they received it. The only negative was that it was sent to the billing address and not the alternative delivery address”
Hi Mrs M,
Thanks for your review, I'm so glad the recipients are happy with this!
I am sorry to read that the order did not go to the correct address, I can see that there was only one address on your order and it was delivered there. We also had no contact from you about changing the address so unfortunately there was nothing we could have done differently to get this order to your required delivery address.
Best wishes,
The Gift Experience 🙂
Hi Karen,

Unfortunately, there can be unforeseen delays in the Royal Mail network which we have no control over, I know how frustrating it is to be waiting on a delivery and I can only apologise for any upset or inconvenience caused.
Best wishes,

“Really happy with my bone china mugs which were a fun anniversary gift. Unfortunately, I didn't realise they were being sent by Royal Mail second class and consequently they arrived 9 days later and after the anniversary date. This may have been due to the Royal Mail strikes but check the delivery options when ordering if time sensitive.”
Hi Tim,
Thanks for your review, I am sorry to read that delivery took a little longer than estimated and it caused the gifts to be late for the event.

“I purchased the Book about you via the Gift Experience website. The format and quality of the book made her birthday present so much more personal. She was made up with it. Thanks for helping to make her birthday special.”
“This was a reasonably priced gift and my friend really loved it. The only negative is there is no gift note option so if this is being sent to someone as a gift you have to purchase a card. This is completely fine however, the card arrived on a completely separate day and about 3 days earlier than the gift which is a shame. I had to explain there would be a separate gift coming and then when the gift actually arrived, they didn't know who it was from.”
Hi
Thanks for your review, I'm so pleased to read that your friend loved the gift.
I am sorry to read you are not completely happy with your experience. Whilst we do make the majority of our orders in house, we also work with a number of suppliers who specialise in other areas to offer a wider variety of gifts.
This means that we cannot always guarantee that all elements of an order will arrive in the same parcel, I do understand that this isn't always ideal especially if the gift is going directly to the recipient.
I hope this didn't diminish your experience significantly and that the gift was well received.
Hi Jean
Thanks for your review, I am sorry to read that delivery took a little longer than estimated but I'm really pleased to still see 4 stars and that you were pleased with the gift!
Hi Mrs Barbara
Thanks for your review, I'm so glad you are happy with our service!
I'm sorry you were disappointed with the size of this, the size is outlined in the description so please always make sure to check this.
“Ordering was easy online. I chose a personalised gift. Delivery was delayed due to the postal workers strike but when it was received it was well packaged and no damage had occurred to the cut glass tumblers. I was a little disappointed with the engraving. Although beautifully done, it was a bit feint and I had expected a more obvious engraving. However, the gift itself was well received and I was happy with my purchase.”
Thanks for your review, I'm so glad you are happy with your order! I am sorry that the engraving wasn't as prominent as you'd have liked, unfortunately we can only engrave to a certain depth without damaging the glass.
I am also very sorry to read that delivery took a little longer than estimated. Unfortunately, there can be unforeseen delays in the Royal Mail network which we have no control over, I know how frustrating it is to be waiting on a delivery and I can only apologise once again for any upset or inconvenience caused.
“Swift efficient service. 80th birthday flower pot purchased. Reasonable value for money; the gift was liked. Only quibble - the lettering of the customised message was too small IMHO, and was not as prominent as I had wished or expected.”
Thanks for your review, I'm so glad you have had an all-round great experience from ordering to delivery.
I am sorry you thought the personalisation was a little small, unfortunately there is only limited space on this product but I hope it was well received nonetheless.
