If I could leave no stars I would

If I could leave no stars I would. I placed an order in mid November and paid for an advanced delivery option and was promised items would definitely arrive before Christmas. Not only did my items not arrive by Christmas, I still have not received them and despite multiple emails, not a single response. This company is is just a scam, do not buy from them and if you have report them to trading standards.

Avoid them

Ordered an advent calendar in late November, got an email to say they didn't have stock on 4/12 and that I'd be issued a refund and sent some chocolate via post as an apology. Never got either, no response to emails and have had to raise a dispute (still un-answered) through Paypal to try and get my money back.

Don’t order from here!

Never wrote a review on here but would like to make people aware not to order from this company!
Purchased a tony’s chocolate advent calendar on the 22nd November and received an email on the 6th after asking them why it hadn’t been dispatched that they haven’t got it in stock and would receive a refund…3 weeks later and not received a penny. Been blanked on emails and Instagram and the phone line is dead.

Perfect service

Perfect service. This is a small family business of only 2 people, yet the service I received was outstanding. I can't rate them highly enough. 5⭐ from me.

Let down

I placed a quite a big order with sweettasticuk 3 weeks ago on Friday for my sons birthday as he loves everything American, after 2 weeks of no update or arrival of the order I emailed them and asked where the order was I was told they had a family funeral and it would be sent out the next day, which I totally understood. A week later still no order so I had to cancel the order and placed the order with Molliessweetshop which was delivered the next day. I feel this could be a very successful business if it was organised a bit better and kept to delivery dates and times. I would say only place an order at the moment if you aren’t in any rush for the items to come.

We understand that it can be frustrating when things don't go as planned and we're sorry about the inconvenience this has caused.

We try our best to keep our customers updated but sometimes unforeseen circumstances such as a family funeral or illnesses do happen and we will always work hard to resolve any issues at the earliest opportunity. We hope you'll give us another chance in future! We're actively taking steps to improve our services.

This company are awful

This company are awful, seven weeks after reporting a damaged order still no replacement order had arrived. Very poor at replying to customers, unfortunately I had to gain intervention from my local Trading Standards office in order for them to reply and process a refund for me. Customer Service is the key to any business, sadly this company is run by amateurs who don't have a clue. I wish I could post the photos here of how my order arrived, absolutely shocking state. Avoid purchasing from them and stick to other companies who know how to pack orders adequately and treat customers correctly.

Everyone needs to order ❤️

Placed my first order on Monday and it arrived today! Literally couldn’t be any happier with it! A vast rage of sweet, some that are new to me and some that took me back to when I was a kid 🙈 Excellent speedy service. I will 10000% be placing another order soon as the pic ‘n’ mix are perfect for movie nights with my partner ❤️

Would not recommend!!

Order late. Damaged, have sent them the pics. And getting no response from company. Shambles.

In response to your below message.... you were contacted 25 hours ago so please do not make me out to be a liar aswell as everything else. Regardless, you have my money and your product was damaged. Regardless of who is at fault you have my money and im looking for it to be returned.

Good Afternoon Char.

Thank you for your review.

If this is in regards to your voicemail & e-mail, you would see that we have just replied to yourself to resolve this issue. Having only just been made aware of the issue regarding the damaged product, I would have at least given us 12 to 24 hours to resolve this but it looks like you haven’t done this and decided to post on here and social media.

In regards to the order arriving late, I would like to apologise but we did send your order out the same day as you ordered, and this is down to DPD’s non delivery. This is completely out of our control, however I am in close contact with DPD and have asked them for; a) A reason for the delivery being late, and b) a claim & investigation for the order that was damaged in transit.

Regardless, please reply to our e-mail sent to you so we can resolve this for you, as a small business, every order matters to us and we will always try to resolve any issues as soon as possible.

Once again, I would like to apologise for this and I look forward to getting this issue resolved for you.
