Purple Heroes

Ordered this. Hoping it would be here for remembrance Sunday. Had nothing. I've emailed them. No response. And they have taken the money from my account. Absolutely disgusting

Absolutely Awful

I placed two orders. I didn't receive any confirmation. When my orders hadn't arrived 3 weeks later, I emailed them 4 times and had no response. Yesterday, quite by chance I found a small package hidden behind a rose in my front garden, bizarrely!
I opened it and one order was there but not the other. The quality of the product in it was dreadful, cheap and nasty. My advice is don't waste your money, I doubt war heroes or 'purple' heroes see any of it!

Totally bogus

Nothing received for a very expensive pin. Have reported to my bank for a refund and also informed the Royal British Legion.
Avoid and go through the genuine charities

Even 1 star is too much

Even 1 star is too much. Evri delivered my pins (20£) to a wrong address. Instead of getting in touch with them to solve the problem (like a decent business would do) they left this to me. Evri could not help. Instead of refunding me or replacing the pins they just ignored my e-mails. They have got the money anything else was not important for them. In my opinion this is not a charity but a fraud business.

Scammers I imagine.

Scammers I imagine.
Eleven days on and no order received.
Not sure how this companies are permitted to take money - obviously fraudulent posing as a charity!

Appalling scam…

Purple Heroes and a company called UK Royal Brooches are somehow linked. Look and their website designs. Uk Royal Brooches reviews have the same appalling sound to them.
I ordered They Also Served from Purple Heroes but my PayPal account showed the money had been paid to UK Royal Brooches. Despite emails to both companies there has been no response. Will be taking this scam up with PayPal to see what they can do to help.

Scammers or just con artists?

Firstly they should show the 'They also served' badge full size as it is tiny when compared with the website image, secondly they should not advertise it in a display box, as it arrives in a piece of plastic, finally they should respond to emails as I have ordered AND PAID FOR two but only received one, with no explanation and no response to my emails. Final thought: Where does the money go for these highly overpriced items? I naively believed it went to animal charities but now have serious doubts.

ROBBED

I have just discovered these reviews and I am appalled and shocked. I ordered 2 brooches on 3 Nov and delivery in their advert said 3-5 days! It’s now the 24th. Evri notified me it was out for delivery on the 17th and then it disappeared with an apology for not being delivered. Since, I have been bouncing emails to both Evri and horsetribute.co.uk and still not received my goods. I’m 80 - how do I get my money back. Go to bank and ask for chargeback. Report them under the Consumer Rights Act or the police. I feel I have been scammed. Never buy anything advertised on Instagram!!!

I wish i had read reviews too

I wish i had read reviews too. Ordered 2 badges 2 weeks ago, and not delivered yet. They stopped responding to my mail, so I complained to paypal.

Very annoyed to be honest and we will never deal with them again.

False advertisement.

Like all the other reviews on here for this company, the 2 I ordered arrived on the 16th November when ordered on the 3rd. Advertised as arriving in 3 to 5 days, so now remembrance Sunday is over. No box as advertised. I will never trust anything advertised on FB. I will contact PayPal as I have not got the full item as advertised as no box and it is not a Brooch again as advertised. Nit recycling packaging as in plastic bags.Totally false adveradvertising.

Purple heroes

Wish I'd read these reviews BEFORE I purchased 3 badges on November 1st , quote "super fast delivery" was looking forward to getting them before rememberance sunday (fail ! ) STILL not arrived apparently in transit. Shockingly bad customer service, found email address, emailed to complain but no reply will not be buying from these shysters again and advise anyone else to do the same, just hope the badges are better quality than their service. Should have known seeing as it was on Facebook. Update, received badges yesterday November 14th and as other reviewers have said NO presentation box as advertised on website, meant to be gifts so if they don't come with box's they should state that.

Avoid This Company

I really question this company and in my opinion is trading irregularly. The company trades through Horsetribute on facebook the messages received come from PurpleHeroes and the money is paid to Royal Brooches. On all of the websites there are no contact details ie company address phone number or mention of charities donated to ect and when you contact them you get no response. My items were ordered on the 30/10 and eventually arrived without boxes (as advertised) in plastic bags were actually pin badges and not brooches on the 13/11 after the event. Personally I would avoid this company at all costs especially if you think you are donating to charity as they give no proof just words.

Disappointed customer . . .

I ordered what was described as a brooch, on 29th October and money was taken. After at least four emails, I finally received it today. It was not boxed, as is shown in their ad, and nor was it a brooch - it was two tie pins stuck on the back. It seems like a scam to take the most money before Remembrance Sunday. Who are purple heroes? Where are the items manufactured?
