“Did not receive my December gin although payment was taken in November. Promised a replacement that also never appeared and understand that the December gin is now unavailable. Waiting a refund and will be cancelling my membership. Also very frustrating to hear that people who subscribed for the December box have received not one but two!”

“Very disappointed with December's gin, Tarquin’s Cornish Christmas Gin. It has way to much juniper and nothing else. Unpleasant.”

“My December gin still hasn’t arrived. I was told it was being despatched again as the original package had gone AWOL but still no sign. Not particularly happy as no new tracking number has been given and have to wait ages for a response. I think I will be cancelling my membership.”

“First gin box arrived,syrup had gone everywhere.it happens, But I cannot accept bad service,over a week has passed,was told a replacement was being sent. This went over my carpet,my blouse. If I had had good customer service and a bit of empathy I would not be writing this and cancelling my membership. Customer service is as important as the contents & so frustrating when you cannot get it sorted or speak to anyone,”

“Placed an order and yes I made an error but emailed straight away trying to change it. No response. Messaged on facebook, got a response but not anything about what I had asked. You have taken my money in December even though you won't be delivering anything until January. I have now asked for everything to be cancelled and a refund due to your lack of communication.”

“Bought the membership as present for my husband’s birthday. He absolutely loves receiving the exciting packages with the very informative magazines and associated “goodies”. The gins have all been excellent and varied. Top choice. The customer service from Molly has been exceptional too. Highly recommended”

“Quite a new member, I have received three boxes so far. Have to say I am confused about the ‘bits’ included. Prawn crisps? Yuk, straight in the bin. Chocolate- I don’t eat it unless it’s raw chocolate. Different cordials and tonics? That would be ok if I had instructions on how to use them and what with. Elderflower cordials? That works with water for me. I know you have the magazine to read but just a little note in the box on what goes with what would help. I must be too much of a gin virgin to really appreciate this. Maybe need to cancel membership and stick with Hendricks and fever tree”
