    Thanks for the update, I've looked at your list of what you received.

    This makes me a bit more hopeful that I'll get mine, as they seem to be packing batches of the same deals.

    Can I just ask were the 2 hampers the same size, and roughly the dimensions of them?

    No completely different,

    the one that contained fruit is a nice darker colour hamper with a material lining and is actually really nice.

    and the one without fruit is just like the other hampers but slightly bigger.

    Cant find pics of either on their website, will upload mine in a min.
  • There can't be more than a handful of us who have got our hampers, what a shambles, so many of us still waiting :(

    Has anybody contacted Watchdog? This kind of thing is right up their street - complete shambles of a company making promises it can't keep.

    Fortunately I never ordered anything from these people because the deals always looked too good to be true to me so didn't want to trust it, but I really feel sorry for all you folks that have been let down.

    I got just add cheese too.

    I received one of these as well & I am thinking that it must be the first of my 12 hamper deal.
    I was expecting a Christmas themed hamper & not this.
    Also the hamper deals are supposed to be worth £30.00/month. The Just Add Chees sells on their site for £24.99

    I was wondering how such a small company was getting such a good press on this forum.
    70+ pages in fact.

    I hope it works out for all.

    That looks grand! I've just emailed them to ask roughly how many sweets come in the sweetie hamper, but I'll probably order anyway.

    Edit: Emailed them (at half 10 at night too!) and he emailed back in minutes saying that the retro hamper is similar to the classic retro hamper.

    I'll give it a go, they look like cute gifts :)

    It is a bit of a downer when he answered initial emails so quick when monies were forthcoming :exclamati
