I ordered 4 of their diamond paintings on March 21st 2020,and have not received any of them. Today's date is May 29th 2020. I have left several e-mails alot of them over these past 8 to 12 weeks or more. I paid for these products with a credit card. I don't understand why they are ignoring me and not contacting me. Have ordered alot of products from them in the past and never had a problem with them. I have giving them the order# and my phone #. They have my e-mail address. Also I have ordered in April and May 2020 some of their products again. May not get those products either. Thank you for letting me do this review. Have a safe and blessed week. 🌼🌹🌺🌷🚣🏊.

Item ordered and paid for but never received

4th September 2016

A plan was ordered and paid for on 4th August 2016 and to this day has never been received.
Emails have been sent but never answered.
Message left on answer machine but never replied to.
PayPal dispute opened but no response so now escalated to claim.
Will I order again? Very unlikely unless they greatly improve their customer service.

Fast Delivery and Helpful Customer Service

I bought a Billing Boats Dana Fishing Boat from MyHobbystore.

The lady I spoke to on the phone was very helpful in advising which models would be good for a beginner and although I was advised that it could take up to 21 days to arrive it was with me within a week.

Overall, very happy with the service and product received.

Will never use this supplier again

i placed an order for £127.00 kit on 24.11.11 tempted by the offer of free postage.

My account was updated to show the item as despatched on 25.11.11 a week later having not received the item I contacted customer services. Was advised they would check with despatch and phone me back. No call back so I phoned again at 2:30 to be told the lady I had spoken to had "piped out for a sandwich" and would call me on her return. Still no call. Customer services only open from 10 to 4 pm. Now it's Monday so I phoned again. Again promised I would get a call back. This time I did but not until 3pm. Was told that they were having some issues with the warehouse but that the kit had been sent but no one seems to be sure if this or were it has gone. Was offered a replacement but having been told it would be so many days to order and then so many days to send I requested a full refund. Was advised she would have to check with her manager and that if agreed would take some 10 days.

Not acceptable so this has been raised as a paypal dispute.

Extremely poor customer service support. Next stage will be a claim through my credit card company as I want my money back.

Item sent, but never received--no response from company

When I ordered the item, I purchased it through their US website. I received notice that it was sent. After 5 weeks, I contacted US customer service and was told she'd look into it. Never heard back. Called US customer service again, and now they're stating they are no longer affiliated with the UK company.

Emailed UK customer service and still no response.

Extremely unhappy with poor customer service and runaround. I don't care if the two companies dissolved their partnership--I want what I ordered or a quick refund.
