I ordered 2 Ruby Flutes to be engraved. Confirmation email of engraving to be done didn't come, as they had my name spelt incorrectly. When I rung to check they sent email and the engraving to be done was wrong, and wording didn't even make sense, but flutes were on their way. When flutes arrive they were engraved, one as stated on email, and one with a letter missing!!!. They were also slightly different shades of pink to one another, which as a pair was unacceptable I telephoned and they sent new flutes with engraving correct, so matter was resolved well, but shouldn't have happened in the first place.

My gift took 11days to be delivered, and on your site you say cards dispatched in 24 hrs, then I find out that the card goes with the gift so that was also late.

I ordered 2 engraved items paid for next day delivery. They didn’t arrive together a day apart. Very disappointed paying that money and service not provided.

Not what I was expecting. Don't think I'll be returning

Despite being advertised that the item would be despatched within three working days it took twice as long. When queried, the person concerned did not know the reason for the delay. I shall be ordering from a more reliable organisation in future.

The item you ordered is on a 1 to 3 days to Despatch, not Delivery, you selected Standard delivery which is a further 2 to 3 days after depatching. So overall the item would have taken between 3 and six days to arrive.

I received a product I was not happy with. I wrote to highlight the issue with the company but have not received any response from customer service to date. I have however received a response from the product review I left for the item saying it has now been approved for publication on their website, so they have obviously seen that I was not 100% pleased. Whilst I can see the review in amongst the total list of reviews, it has of today not been added to the reviews at the bottom of the product page - which I thought was the main reason for reviewing an item, so as future customers can be better informed - poor show so far I'm afraid from what looked on the face of it a decent company. If they had got back in touch I would not be leaving these type of comments on your site

The website is misleading saying dispatched within 24 hours in actual fact its dispatched the following day before close of business and delivery times are not what is advertised. Delighted with the product just shocking customer service very rude and arrogant. Will never use again

Sent me a mail which I opened thinking it might be a problem but instead it was a mail asking how I rated the present (being a "Personalised bottle of red wine") which I had bought for her Birthday on Apr 11th. She walked in whilst I was reading it. Surprise went.I mailed and told them and have heard nothing back.

Purchase did not arrive so spoke to someone at the telephone who asked me to call again the following week so as to leave it for 2 weeks . She also asked me to contact the local sorting office to check if they had the parcel!!! Anyway item still didn’t arrive so called again and this was re-ordered. No apology and I thought her attitude was very aloof.

The Mother’s Day gift I ordered for my wife’s 1st mother’s day did not arrive until the following week. Fail!

Ordered the year you were born. Sadly didn’t meet up to expectations, the price was too much for basically a laminated print sellotaped into a cheap cardboard ‘frame’. The information on the print off was alright but expected more. Looks cheap and sadly won’t be giving a gift.

WE bought a Crystal Vase and paid extra for Gift Wrapping. We also had the vase engraved. The engraving was of a very poor quality, and the Gift Wrapping was rubbish to say the least. Sorry but you asked!!!!!!

I ordered a sweet baby towel with personalised writing, the towel quality is ok the writing is a different pink than the trim- not horrendous just ok. It arrived in a very tatty brown square box, I thought it must be tissue wrapped inside but it wasn’t. No care at all was taken in sending this item to me.

I’d made a mistake spelling Grandma, and they didn’t pick up on it and email or phone to check! Had to order another one because m/n were wrong!

the gift itself was wonderful. The delivery of it was a disaster ! I paid additional money for next day delivery as I was going on holiday. After 5 days it still hadn't arrived and I phoned to complain and arrange the delivery to be made to my neighbour's house, giving a house number. Instead of doing that, the delivery person left it in the rubbish bin at the front of the house. It was only by chance that my neighbour saw the delivery note as he collected my mail. This was just one day before the bin men came to collect the rubbish and the gift would have been lost forever. Sadly, I am reluctant to use The Gift Eperience in future

Photo was cropped,The 2 end people out of the 6 were partly chopped off.The photo was shown in sepia the original is black and white.The sepia is nice but the top of the photo area is white.Which has certainly spoilt this plate,The rest of the plate is lovely ,a very nice idea
