Ordered a card, but it didn't arrive. Contacted the company and they immediately sent another with apologies. Can't fault how they dealt with this.

Beautiful Cards and Excellent Service

I've had a fantastic experience with Thortful. The range of cards is excellent, with plenty of unique, funny, and thoughtful designs to choose from for any occasion.

The ordering process is simple and straightforward, and the cards have always arrived on time and exactly as expected. The print quality is excellent, and it's easy to personalise cards to make them extra special.

What really stands out is the convenience and reliability of the service. It's taken the stress out of finding the perfect card, and I've always been impressed with the finished product. I wouldn't hesitate to use Thortful again and would happily recommend it to others.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

We're really sorry to hear your card has not arrived for the big day. Your order was sent out via First Class post with our partners the Royal Mail. This is an estimated next day service, but they do admit a small number of items can take up to 3 working days to arrive. We can only apologise for this, we do our best to get orders sent out as quickly as possible, but sadly some cards can get caught up in the postal system along the way. We're so sorry for any inconvenience caused this time.

However I can see that you have been in touch and we have since resolved this for you. If you have any more queries regarding this order, feel free to contact us directly at talktous@thortful.com so that we can assist you further.

Thanks,
The thortful Team

Overnight delivery turned into 2nd class post

Overnight delivery it said. Delivery details available on next page, it said. Pay first, it said. ‘Bing!’ Money taken and ‘we are sending it to you - not the recipient - at (accidentally) the correct address, but by second class mail so it will arrive at least two days late’. And no way or opportunity offered to rescind that. Worst £11.45 I’ve spent this week.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

We're super sorry to hear that your recent experience with us wasn't a positive one. This is extremely disappointing for us, as we pride ourselves on offering a top-tier service, and this certainly does not sound like the standards we aim to provide.

We'd really love the chance to look into this further, and help make things right. Please don't hesitate to get back in touch again directly at talktous@thortful.com, and we'll happily do all we can to make this better - scouts honour!

Thanks,
The thortful Team

Hey Christina,

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

We're so sorry your order arrived later than expected. We do all we can to get orders out quickly, so they have the best chance of arriving in time. Sadly, however, some items can be impacted by delays in the postal system along the way, we're afraid.

We can't see that you've been in touch regarding this already, but we would love to try and help resolve this for you! Please do reach out directly at talktous@thortful.com, and a member of our Customer Happiness Team will be more than happy to assist :)

Thanks,

Fantabulous

We got some face swap cards for birthdays and they were far better than we anticipated! Very quick delivery and very good quality.

Boxful of disappointment

£14.98 for a pair of novelty socks, contained within a cardboard box, wrapped in a cardboard sleeve contained within another cardboard box.
I'd suggest the £2.99 48hr delivery cost is the most expensive part of this load of landfill.
The inner box which I assume is supposed to be "the birthday card" is blank so no indication that it even is a birthday card, not even 'A Happy Birthday!' to spoil its pristine white empty interior. From looking at their website to personalise "the card" is yet another additional cost over & above the additional cost of the novelty socks (which will never be worn).
Honestly whichever of my unknown friends purchased this I would rather they had saved their money or donated it to charity instead of wasting it on this overpriced tat.

Hi Richard,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

We’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed with the recent gift you received. At thortful, we have a strong commitment to sustainability, operating with a print-on-demand model, using 100% recyclable materials, vegan inks, and partnering with environmental organisations to offset their carbon footprint. The inner card that held your gift is the greeting card that the sender chose for you; this can be personalised with a message, free of charge, but it sounds like the sender forgot to include one on this occasion. The cardboard sleeve is to protect the card and can be used to present the gift as an alternative to gift wrapping. The outer brown cardboard box is a standard box for postage to protect the contents inside during transit.

We're always looking for ways to improve so thank you for bringing this to our attention.

If there's anything else we can do for you, please feel free to get in touch with us at talktous@thortful.com and we’ll be happy to help!

Best wishes,
The thortful Team

Quality of the card is really poor

Quality of the card is really poor. Arrived nicely packaged but the expensive sweets I added to the card were not of the same size as in shops, much smaller for far more money. So all in all a rip off. ONCE BITTEN, TWICE SHY.

Hi there,

Thanks for leaving a review.

We're really sorry to hear you were disappointed with your order. We print our cards with a matte finish, on 300gsm card stock, in order to give all of the designs from our lovely creators a beautiful, premium finish. We believe that using a shiny laminate can cheapen the great designs our creators upload, as well as having harmful effects for the environment, so this is why we opted for this finish.

It does say this on our product page for each card, but it could be that we need to make this more prominent. Please let us know if you have any further feedback or suggestions on how we can clarify this by reaching out directly at talktous@thortful.com, and a member of our team will be happy to help! :)

Thanks,
The thortful Team
