    The online communication with the sale staff was very poor, confusing to customers. You have to follow the order with emails and messages properly as it’s not difficult to purchase or delivery of my orders. I or my son always shopped at your Shoreditch store for the last 15 years, the service was great and still is. I could not find the click and pic option as my billing address on my account was Australian. But I indicated in the order message that my son will pick from Shoreditch store, and sent a email with all details re order to you.

    I would have no hesitation in recommending Cowling and Wilcox. They provide an excellent service in every aspect from the quality of their products to the quality of their customer service. I have been dealing with this company for a few years now and have always found them fair and reliable. A first class business in every regard.

    Excellent products let down badly by poor customer service. Although a discount was offered, the online form wouldn't accept the discount voucher. I contacted customer service via the company's website but could get no response. It was not a great deal of money but I would not use this company again, as a matter of principle...

    Thank you for getting in touch with us and expressing your concerns. Daler Rowney, the manufacturer of this pad, decided to change the A2 and A1 versions some time ago from Portrait to Landscape. We updated our images accordingly at the time but I can fully understand the frustration of this when you're used to a different format. I understand one of our customer service team has been in touch to run through this with you and I hear that you're happy with the conversation. Please do not hesitate to get back in touch if we can help further. Kind regards, Guy.
