Good Communication

I had not been able to use my voucher due to the current pandemic - they managed to help me make use of it :)

Hi Paul,

I'm so sorry to hear you have not yet received a response, that definitely falls short of our usual 24 hour response rate.

Unfortunately we've not seen any emails from you and all calls have been answered or returned the same day.

If you could email your details directly to info@goldenmoments.com, I will look out for your email and ensure your request is dealt with as soon as possible.

Many thanks

Spirit of New York cruise

Booked evening cruise with Golden moments using my air miles. Amy at Golden moments was exceptional in helping with my booking.
The cruise was very good. Boarded in the evening at Chelsea piers in New York. The boat was modern and nicely fitted out. We sailed along the river Hudson. Night time New York looked wonderful from the boat.
There was a very good hot and cold buffet with nice puddings. We had a bottle of sparkling wine, which at $38 ,was not too expensive.
There were some other tourists on the boat in casual clothes ,but most people were locals and dressed to impress. Everyone was very friendly and made us feel welcome.
The disco music was different from our average disco, but easy to dance too. All ages of people were dancing and we felt very comfortable to party with them.

High level of personal service

I booked a Spirit of Travel excursion on the Northern Belle steam train from Newcastle for 20/3/20 for a Mother's Day surprise, on behalf of my sister and I, for our mum.
Amy was extremely helpful, friendly, professional & knowledgeable, making the process very smooth & easy.
I asked for a surprise gift of flowers to be added on the day & she kindly organised that for me too.
Amy very helpfully researched & shared information regarding a follow up question I had following my booking.
I received a very high level of personal service, with nothing being too much trouble - Amy is a credit to the Golden Moments Customer Service Team!

I was gifted a voucher for a dinner for 2. I got in a complete muddle trying to redeem the voucher. So I called Golden Moments for help. Amy was so patient with me, realising I didn’t have a golden moments voucher. But bless her she helped me redeem it and didn’t make an old lady feel stupid. I will definitely be recommending your company to friends and family. Especially Amy!

Helpful Amy…

I had the change from a voucher for afternoon tea that I hadn't used and got in a muddle trying to use it on line but rang up and Amy took my request over the phone and didn't make me feel stupid. She was very helpful and able to book me another afternoon tea at a hotel of my choice and I paid the difference over the phone. She also upgraded it to a champagne afternoon tea and I will be taking a friend for her birthday.
Thanks very much Amy

Very Good Service

On ordering a bottle of champagne I was pleased that Amy emailed me on receipt of the order to allow me to add additional details and personalisation and it was no problem making any changes to the original order. I was kept updated with the order until delivery. Thanks Amy.

Hi Angela, I do hope that the bottle is happily received, and of course, you get a glass should it ever be 'popped'

Also she gave us good advice. We are looking forward to our trip on the Northern Belle to the RHS Flower Show in Cardiff on the 18 April.2020.

Required to pay an additional £262.50 to redeem voucher

I purchased a gift voucher to "Drive an Audi R8" for £271.39, in August 2019.

A few months later, when the recipient tried to redeem the voucher, they were informed that "because the price has gone up, you can either pay an additional £262.50, or exchange the experience".

This is not acceptable; it's a borderline scam. The company tried to DOUBLE the price, AFTER purchase. (And yet, under normal circumstances, they'll happily charge you for a cancellation?!)

...Or to put this another way: If the price goes up, then goldenmoments will demand an additional payment. But if the price goes down, then they'll presumably keep quiet and pocket the difference?

No option to refund the purchase was presented, but after I insisted, they did do this for me.

Disappointing experience; I'll be spending my money elsewhere in future.

Hey there Tom, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're really sorry to hear this and we are very disappointed with the experience you've received. This definitely falls far short of the experience our customers deserve for which we apologise for.

I've escalated your case, and after our initial investigation, it looks like the supplier unfortunately changed the price of the experience after your purchase. It is rare for a supplier to update a price and not honour a pre-purchased experience, but unfortunately we have no control over our suppliers and their pricing.

We appreciate not everyone is going to read our T&Cs, but we do mention in there that suppliers may change their prices at any time.

If you would like to discuss this further we'd be happy to have a conversion, but we truly are sorry for the frustration this has caused.

LONDON TRIP

Booked a London bus tour using a gift voucher I had won in a raffle. Had lots of queries how to redeem and choose the best tour and over the moon with the help that Amy provided 👍 Nothing was too much trouble and she sorted everything out to my satisfaction. Thank you Amy and much appreciated 😊

Great customer care!

Great choice of 'Moments' to choose from and easy to redeem gift voucher.
I redeemed an eVoucher over the Christmas period (lots of Bank Holidays) so the supplier token took a while to come to me. On querying it with Golden Moments Amy quickly sorted it out.
Excellent customer service. Thank you Amy

A great company with a superb customer service team! After making a mistake with a Christmas present booking, Golden Moments were kind enough to allow me to cancel the booking. Both Amy and Natalia were really helpful in finding out my options, responding promptly to e-mails and getting my refund processed. I really appreciate your flexibility and understanding and will certainly book with you in future. Many thanks.

My voucher was not emailed for some reason and this was disappointing because it was going to be a Christmas gift. I got in touch with golden moments and Natalia helped me again by making a voucher on fancy paper and sent it to my address which was received in plenty of time before Christmas! Golden moments will always be the first place I will check for a gift experience - first class!
