Hi James,
Thanks for the great review and for your continued orders with Hotline.
We’re really pleased to hear you were happy with both the service and the finished quality of your branded tote bags. One of the biggest concerns when ordering printed promotional products online is knowing how a design will actually look on the finished item, so it’s great to hear our team and free Visual Proofs™ helped give you confidence before production.
Making sure artwork is clear, well-positioned and suited to the product is a big part of the service we provide, especially on custom printed tote bags where design scale and print area can make a huge difference to the final result.
Thanks again for your support and we look forward to helping with your next order.

Hi Rhoda,
Thank you for your feedback and for the 4 stars.
We're really pleased to hear our team was helpful.
We're sorry the website felt difficult to navigate in places. We’re continually improving the experience to make ordering as simple and clear as possible.
Regarding pricing, once your free Visual Proof™ has been created, we lock your quoted price in for a set period. In some cases, changes to product options, quantities or delivery requirements can affect the live website pricing shown, but this should not affect the price confirmed on your Visual Proof™. We'd be very happy to look into this further for you.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback. It genuinely helps us improve.
