Book block has amazing service, turnaround time, and quality products! We will definitely be using them again. Ed was so helpful and made ordering in a pinch such a breeze!

I think this is a really cool idea for gift giving. My method is to add everything I like for the person into my basket and then remove and refine down to a price and product combination I'm happy wit... See more

Great selection of pieces to add to my little sisters birthday hamper at decent prices, only thing I wish could be better is having an option for next day delivery. The package took 8 days to deliver

Awful Experience

The gift I ordered was delivered 5 days later than the expected arrival date and I wasn’t informed there was a delay. The box arrived damaged so I emailed to complain. After multiple emails chasing it up it’s taken almost 8 weeks for them to process me a refund of £2 for the damaged box. The customer service has been beyond horrendous and to only offer me a £2 refund for the whole inconvenience is a joke. I won’t ever be buying from them again and I encourage others not to either.

Excellent and wonderful experience! ❤️

So I ordered a couple of gifts in a box and since I am ordering for someone in UK from another country, I have lots of questions. The representatives in the chat service were really accommodating and they answered all of my questions accurately. About the delivery, I selected a specific date for it to be delivered and the parcel arrived 2 days earlier which is a really good one for me since it shows how efficient they are. I really had a good experience with Bookblock and might order again some other time because the gifts made my partner really happy this Valentine's. ❤️

Thank you gift

Relatively easy to select box and items wanted to gift. Would like more chocolate selections, champagne truffles etc or more gourmet sweets.
Some items were available in readymade boxes but not available for make ur own gift box. Card good selection. Need more choice with variable price points. More candles, more bath products, pamper gifts etc.

Fantastic present buying service

So easy, great service, and really cheered my friend up with the Hug in a Box. I added a personalised card, and some sweet treats and found it from start to finish a pleasure to use. The gift arrived on the day and within the time frame allocated. What more can you ask.

6 weeks and still no package delivered!

My experience of trying to send a simple birthday package:
1. Sent box to wrong address
2. Tried to tell me that they didn't and the person who I sent it to actually received it.
3. Eventually offered a replacement.
4. As there were days in-between replies from customer service I was asked to repick unavailable items 3 times.
5. Resent box to with wrong address so it was returned to them.
6. I had to reconfirm the address.
7. Items once again not available so I've been asked to repick.

My brothers birthday was 6 weeks ago and I'm still dealing with Book Block.

Go somewhere else to get a hamper made.
