“Wouldn't use again.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Nathanael107 on 03/08/2021

I ordered several cross stitch kits online. After a long wait, I received an email to say that they would not be able to get hold of one of the items. I said that was okay and they refunded me for that item. I continued to wait for the other items to be dispatched. I then received another email to say that there was a delay with one of the items, and that this was highly unusual for them. I continued to be patient and waited. Today I sent an email asking for an update, and I received a rather brusque reply saying that they had told me one item was not available and they were waiting for another item. They said they would sent out the items that were available. I haven't received anything yet, and I don't have much faith that I will receive anything. And after the terse response to my email asking for an update, it has completely put me off this company. I would not order from this company again.

I placed my order 23/5/20. My order was partially despatched over 3 weeks later. It has now been 33 days since I placed my order and I have not received a single item I ordered yet. I will not order from this company again

“Totally disappointing ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Bunion56 on 19/06/2020

I too wish I had found this site before ordering. I ordered my item on 19/3/20 and paid. I have rang them no reply and they haven’t replied to my email asking for a full refund. It said it was in stock for immediate delivery obviously it wasn’t I think nearly five weeks is ridiculous they don’t deserve any customers at all. I am taking this further as I don’t think what they are doing is legal in anyway. If you are thinking of usIng this company DONT Thank goodness I only spent a small amount.

“In the past I have spent hundreds and hundreds of...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Ejm84 on 16/04/2020

In the past I have spent hundreds and hundreds of pounds with this company and I’m never really had a complaint about them, i received excellent service and I was happy with their services, until recently even with this pandemic that’s been going on I tried to be as patient as possible but a few weeks ago I had made an order and I still haven’t received it so I sent various messages through The message centre on the website, the reason why I was sending messages this way was because I suffer from chronic pain due to osteoarthritis and A hip deformity, and on that particular day I couldn’t get up out of bed so my only form of communication was to send messages through her website to which she kept calling and made horrible remarksThat’s just because I can’t get out of bed does not mean I cannot answer the phone, she asked me to stop sending messages and to answer the phone even after I explained I could not get to the phone that Particular time, We managed to resolve that situation, I have made some orders since and spent quite a considerable amount of money, I understand that services are slow due to COVID-19, there was one particular order where I had to send several emails And messages to get replies, I’ve got a few replies but none of them detailing of when my order will be in stock or dispatched, I then commented that I’m losing patience, I then got a message saying that all my ongoing orders have been cancelled, she left the phone number so I called her and I spoke to her and could not get much of a word in edgeways as she was screaming and shouting down the phone making disgusting noises that only severely disabled people can make, she called me names, she insulted me, she intimidated me,But most of all she bullied me, she spoke to me and treated me like I was worthless and nothing more than a piece of rubbish for her to bully, because of my social phobia and anxiety is caused extreme stress and upset that it reduced me to tears to the point I had a panic attack, she also stated she has thousands of more important customers to attend to, making me feel that I did not matter, I have never been treated in such a disgusting manner, She has a lack of empathy for disabled people and People with health issues whether they are mental or physical health issues such as EUPD, depression, social anxiety, anxiety, panic attacks,She treated me with a complete lack of human decency, Even after I tried to explain why my preferred method of contact via messages because of my social phobia and anxiety she then called me names Such as a keyboard warrior because I cannot deal or function with talking on the phone, I hope that one day this woman Gains some common human decency and learns how to deal with her customers with disabilities in a more appropriate manner and learn to be more understanding of these said disabilities instead of bullying and name-calling and intimidating people with these disabilities, I hope that no one ever has to go through what I have been through with them.

“Rubbish service ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Cat3110 on 01/03/2020

I went to look for a specific lanarte sewing kit I wanted so looked at various UK based companies, as I didn't want the hassle of buying overseas. The website made out the kit was in stock so I ordered it from Marie's. I ordered Wednesday and by Friday the order was still not dispatched. So I rung them up (which was not easy as they hardly answer!). They said they had to order it in, which was not shown on the site like it is on other websites. They said to expect it by Monday. Not only was it not there by Monday, but they hadn' t even processed my payment and this is 1 day off a week since ordering. So I cancelled my order and got from arts and crafts online. Ordered Monday and came Tuesday AND it was cheaper! Take a cue from other sites Marie's because your customer service is not up to scratch. You need to be more transparent around stock quantities to prevent customer disappointment.

“Still awaiting my order, not happy.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by DavinBaird on 26/11/2015

Ordered from here because it promises a personal service from a family run business, but have been messed about, told my order was posted when it was not, and at this point am still waiting. I will certainly not be returning for any more orders.
