Terrible customer experience with deliveries and customer service. Their products and ranges are great, but at least twice I have been told, after asking for an update on outstanding orders, that 10 working days is what they expect for deliveries, and the fact I had been waiting 12 working days (orders arrived on the 13th and 14th working day) was only two more than that. Also not replying to social media dms. Please sort your customer experience out.

I'm writing this mainly about the excellent customer service I have received in respect to problem I had with a faulty Siena frame. I bought this instorebut found it to have marks on it where sticky tape had been attached at the corners. This was a factory fault but a nuisance for me as, living outside London and unable to return it, I had to repaint the frame before I could use it for a client. I emailed Great Art with pictures as I thought they should be aware of faulty goods. I was very pleased to get a swift reply from Luke in customer service and he has now sent me a second frame as a goodwill gesture - I can't give a five-star review simply because there was a problem to start with, though Luke's attention to this problem is worthy of five stars as we had to go round the houses a bit on since he is meant to deal only with online sales. Many thanks.

Ordered on 24th August order arrived today with one item missing, rang up told it was warehouses fault, the gentleman tried to reorder the missing item and now told its out of stock, where has my item gone, paid for goods immediately, told refund will take two to three days, don't order it you actually want the item you ask for, this is not the first time this has happened, if you need artpaks order from jacksons art you have to pay £20 delivery but at least you get the product and it won't take 11 working days to arrive UPDATE Still no refund

totally hopeless company! As others have commented their delivery is a joke. I ordered 3 weeks ago and have heard nothing. I phoned up and got the "lost pallet" story which seems to feature in previous reviews. Avoid like the plague.

In May I placed an order as a Birthday gift for my mother. When it didn't arrive I contacted the Great Art customer service line. The customer service agent was polite and explained that there was a hold-up at the European mainland depot. The advice was to wait on. another 15 days passed and still no order. Contacted again and this time the order was stuck in the UK customs warehouse. Waited again (now in mid-June) no order. Contacted again, this time it would be delivered. Date of delivery given, mother told to expect a parcel. No delivery of the order. Contacted again, told it was delivered, check again. No order delivered. (end of June). Contacted again, informed that it was sent to an old address despite the correct shipping and billing address given. Contacted again, told that a replacement order would be sent out. No order delivered. Contacted again on 19th July and requested a refund for the order and confirmation of refund. Assured that it would be refunded. No refund or confirmation of refund. August, three months on, and still no sign of order or refund. I work Internationally, and the costs and my time to contact Great Art exceed the value of the order. All I can say is, that actions are more important than a few polite words. The title of the company needs to be brought into question. Certainly not 'Great' and definitely no 'Art'. Shop at your peril.

Never, ever, have I felt the need to right a review on Trust Pilot before, so this speaks to how disappointed I am with this company. I placed an order late June and have receive no word as to where my order is or why it has yet to arrive. When attempting to phone the line drops and I have little faith that I will receive any helpful response to my email. My order was placed to my parents home address and due to the appalling service I will have to pay extra to have it delivered to my university address. This is totally unacceptable and would say AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Honestly I now want to cancel my order and have a full refund but have no way of even doing that. I understand having an issue with suppliers but the complete lack of transparency is in excusable. I would also like to point out that I believe the Terms and Conditions have not been followed. Under delivery the company states: 6.4 Unless you and we agree otherwise, if we cannot deliver your goods within 30 days, we will: 6.4.1 let you know 6.4.2 cancel your order, and 6.4.3 give you a refund. After more than 30 days I have still yet to even hear from Great Art in an any official capacity.

My initial order (almost £300) was June 24, like other have written, I was told to phone back after the 10 working days - “if it hasn’t arrived by Friday, ring in Monday for sure.” I rang three days in a row: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, I either got their machine or nothing. Now, I began to become anxious that some fraud had been committed. I finally reached a person on the end of the line who said (claimed?) my order was part of a palette dated June 24, that has got lost - “they’re searching for it”; a promise to call me back was made but never kept. I then emailed on the advise of PayPal in case the need to claim the payment back (which I may do: they give you a window of 180 days after purchase). I left another message, sometime later and got a call back two days later from a guy, who was super helpful; the date was July 20 - 6 weeks after my order was paid on line. We went through the process of re-ordering and replacing items that are no longer available. I am now almost out of acrylic medium, and I’m gonna have to order some from Jackson’s or Atlantis. Do I trust that I will get my order? I want to say yes, I’ve used them so often before, but I have fraud paranoia because internet fraud has been so rampant during the pandemic. Why can’t they update their customers...like every other website (I bought a cat tree from a company who couldn’t stop updating me. Bless ‘em)! Fingers crossed 🤞 July 29: order arrived!

An £80 online order on 6 July shows no sign of arriving. Impossible to get any phone number answered. Don't risk it! Used to be good, have frequently ordered in the past but no longer, can't afford to loose money at this rate!!

Great in shop not a online shop talking about delivery!

Pretty much the same enormously poor experience as everybody else! With poor customer service. I placed my order, it said a 7-10 day window (working days only). They don’t provide you with a tracking number, but claim it’s tracked. Didn’t get any shipment updates. Assumed it was coming from the U.K. as it doesn’t state otherwise. We got to day 7 and I emailed asking if the tracking number was available, they replied saying it would only become available within the 7-10 day period, and advised me to reach out again 3 days later if it hadn’t yet arrived. It didn’t arrive. It’s now gone over the 10 days, so I emailed yet again asking for the tracking number and had no reply. I decided to call and was told my order was delayed and it would be with me within 2 days. Still no tracking number given to me. I finally got an email reply back with contradictory information - saying yes there are delays and that it would be with me by the end of the week or early next week (not the ‘2 days’ as specified by another colleague), and again still no tracking number provided to me. Also this was the first ever mention of it coming from Germany! I emailed back but of course no reply yet. After reading these reviews I’ll be phoning again tomorrow with concern.
