Pretty green glazed petal plate

The plate was exactly what I wanted.
I purchased one from a National Trust shop quite a while ago and use it to put medium size candles on. My friend has always wanted one so I was really pleased when I sourced this as part of her birthday present.
It arrived so promptly and was really well packed.

Royal Mail sent it back to you

Royal Mail sent it back to you. Haven’t heard anything from you

The email saying that someone needed to be at home was too late, and in spite of being located within electric gates and the ability to leave and lock the porch door on closing, took it away

The original card said that it would try the next day, but then I had an email saying it had been returned

We understand how frustrating it is when a parcel is not delivered as expected.

Unfortunately, with Royal Mail 24-hour tracked delivery, parcels must be signed for and safely received. Royal Mail would usually attempt delivery again the next day, however their services have been under additional strain during the recent heatwave. These delivery decisions are made by Royal Mail and are outside of our control.

From the tracking, I can see that the parcel is due to be returned to us today. As soon as we receive it, we will arrange for it to be sent back out to you.

If you have any further questions about your parcel, please contact our customer services team and we will be happy to help.

The vase carafe looked gorgeous on the website. Reality less so,it is large and rather out of proportion for its function. Rather more of a statement piece.
It arrived quickly and in an over large box!

We’re sorry to hear that the product was not quite what you expected.

We do include dimensions and lifestyle imagery on our product listings to help give a clear sense of size before purchase. Our packaging is also chosen to reflect the fragility of each item and to help ensure it arrives safely without damage during transit.

If you would like to return the item, please contact our customer services team, who will be happy to guide you through the returns process.

Replacement of favourite oyster opener.

Great value. Was able to replace my oyster knife and Breton clamp for the same price I bought the original from you many years ago, which I head lent to a friend, and unfortunately he broke the knife tip. Wonderful to replace it.

Wrong items delivered

Wrong item delivered. Had to take a photo to resolve the problem caused by Divertimenti and now I have to take this package to the post office. Not a good experience!

An amazing Cook Expert gadget

As this was my first experience I wasn’t sure what to expect but when I arrived I was welcomed pleasantly by the staff in charge and briefed about the class. The recipes cooked were to my liking and I enjoyed the food which was delicious and plenty. Very impressed with the multi functional food processor and seemed
easy to use. Will definitely consider buying in the near future.
