    ....Everyone must be hiding behind the sofa everytime someone knocks at the door just incase the police have come to arrest them!

    They can arrest me on a charge of being sold 6 late, underfilled hampers that did not match the advertised descriptions and also further charges of not receiving any reply to complaints about late delivery and inadequate substitution of items.
    I think the final charge will have to be refusal to use this company ever again.

    My defence will be that I expect any company I deal with to supply the goods I have paid for in good condition and in a timely manner, none of which happened with this company.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.

    I have just got 4 hampers from the 12 hamper deal and 4 hampers have been delivered to various relatives across the country as part of the same deal.
    The hampers themselves are quite small but quite cute!
    I had 3 christmas ones delivered and they were as most people described but the people I sent them were pleased to get them as a gift.
    I got 3 mixed chocolate /sweet ones for christmas /birthday gifts which were a mix of cadburys, Thorntons and galaxy - all different .
    I also got a mixed jam/ preserves and it contained 2 full size chutneys, a full size jam and 2 smaller ones.
    None of them were worth the value of £30.00, but I paid less than a fiver each delivered on this deal so I guess they were great value.
    I think I have been lucky with what I got and with the addition of a few extras will make great gifts.
    I will not be getting any more hampers until the end of February so I hope the delivery situation will have improved by then.
    Good luck to everyone else

    If they advertised that each hamper will be worth £30 then that's what we should receive.....hampers worth £30!

    :mad::mad:

    Not £5!

  • I ordered the original 6+6 deal on 8th August. Have received 4+4 - the last 2+2 too late to use as gifts. Sweetie hampers had about half what they should have and missing vinegar from preserves still not arrived.

    Online my order says "completed". Who knows what that means?

    I don't think this company will be here next Xmas, somehow.

    Maybe this is his new way of delivering the hampers???

    Just letting everyone know that the police have arrived on the forum. :D

    We have to be careful what we say now.

    Ha, that made me chuckle!
    He also is spending a lot of time chatting to the cops!
    Everyone must be hiding behind the sofa everytime someone knocks at the door just incase the police have come to arrest them!

    Perhaps the cops are doing a bit of moonlighting and helping him pack the hampers :D
