  • I have checked it out with customer services, you cannot pre-order the cards to have them sent out at a later date. This is unlike Moonpig, Hallmark and other such suppliers. I have cancelled my orders as I don't want them delivered NOW, want them delivered in future date.

    But the website is terrible, it took me about 1/2 hour to personalise these three cards. And, you're only allowed so many letters to put in your own text which wasn't enough even to use the same message as in the sample card...really frustrating! But still got three decent cards for Birthdays coming up this month so worth persevering:)

    Thanks OP, just placed an order which says 'processing'. Hope it all comes as I have so many autumn birthdays. Agree the site is terrible, much worse than the competition. Also some of the designs aren't great.

    Thanks OP - just ordered 18th card - usually use Funky Pigeon but this seemed quite reasonable - crashed after checkout but i've had confirmation email so it went through.

    What a waste of time if you have to go through that design part again!

    I had a card that has been cut badly; the words have their endings cut short! But, I did get a refund so that was good CS.

    But the time it took me to get the card right !!!!
