Card Connection Conference

The company went out of their way to personally deliver the balloons for our conference after a DPD driver decided to do a drive by photo and suggest nobody was available to take delivery at a hotel. Chloe was an absolute star for ensuring we received these and I have to say the tables looked great with these on.

Awful service

On the 27/04/24 my girlfriends received a 50th birthday gift of 3 balloons of which 1 was deflated.
I complained and was ignored until I gave them a 1* rating. They then apologised but were also upset that they got such a poor review.
They promised me a full refund.
Nearly two weeks on from the promise of a refund….. Nothing!

Hi Nigel

As explained in our previous response to your other review, we had not received any emails from yourself until the one dated 1st May, which we responded too immediately. I can confirm a full refund was processed right away.

Hello John

We are so sorry that DPD has let us down on this occasion with your delivery. Please be assured your order was dispatch on time, and the courier had this out on delivery on the correct day. We responded to your email within 8 minutes and contacted DPD regarding the issue with the delivery driver. As explained on email, we did everything we could to try and get DPD to ask the driver to return, however this was unsuccessful. We have resent a fresh order for you, as well as processing you a full refund and raising this with the managerial team at DPD.

Kind Regards
Chloe

Excellent customer service

The balloons are really fun and make an excellent gift. Unfortunately, not long after arrival my little one accidentally popped the balloon. I contacted customer services and they sent another balloon, free of charge. My little one was over the moon. Thanks so much again x

Bad Quality.

I'm never usually one to leave a bad review but the Quality of these balloons from this company are absolutely shocking and for the price you expect a high quality baloon. First time using this company for a helium birthday balloon, I've purchased balloons god knows how many times from other companies over the years and I've never ever had a problem were the balloons turn up deflated and saggy. I've always had balloons that stay pumped for over a month before they even start to go saggy but you can tell even the quality is very bad. I'd definitely avoid if your wanting a decent balloon.

Hello Sam

As explained in our email conversation, your order was delivered on time, 14 days ago now. We would not recommend getting helium balloons delivered 15 days before your event in the future as it is highly likely they will not be looking at their best as they would have been the day they arrived. As explained on our website, in our terms & conditions and FAQ's, the balloons should last fully inflated for around 4-6 days. This is the average float time for all helium foil balloons.

Many Thanks
Chloe
