Dreadful Experience
I placed an order for a custom made surround on the 5th January 2026. Upon placing the order you get charged instantly and on the confirmation email there’s a “what happens next section”. In this section they advise you will receive your first mock up in 7 days. Perfect. 2 weeks passed and I received nothing, now I know the world championships had been on, demand is high etc fine. I emailed to chase up and was told (by a PA) designs are currently taking 3 weeks due to high demand. On 9th February after losing complete interest I chased up one last time and advised I’d been left with no choice but to take it up with my credit card company, miraculously my first mock up was sent within 10 minutes.
There was one issue I didn’t like about my design and advised them to remove writing and go ahead. After a further check I noticed a concept image had been used (for context it’s a Nottingham Forest themed surround) and they had used an image of a potential redeveloped stadium rather than true reflection. I emailed 14 minutes after receiving and pointed it out and requested the change. I then got a reply saying we have removed the writing and it has been sent to printers. The current wait is 4 weeks. I responded asking for them to confirm whether they had noticed my follow up email and was advised no, it cannot be changed as the design has been sent off. I fully accept upon glance of the initial design I asked for one change but I struggle to get my head around the fact that a request 14 minutes later with a wait time of 4 weeks cannot be amended.
I hate resorting to social media, however I commented asking if I could speak to someone higher up rather than a “PA” and my comment just got deleted.
Just shy of £100 down the drain for an 11 week wait on a surround that has 0 relevance to my initial design. Avoid.
