Verified reviewStill haven’t received my order and haven’t been able to contact anyone. Has been at the senders local depot for 11 days now and I’ve had no correspondence.I need this canvas for an order I’m fulfilling and cannot move on until I receive it. This has caused a significant delay.

Reply from Cowlingandwilcox.com
Good morning, Thank you for your message. Having checked your order with our customer service team, I've found out we've been communicating with you about this. I am so sorry you've had issues in the past with Evri. We generally have very few issues with them since they rebranded from Hermes. So, it's very frustrating that they've let you down on this occasion. I can assure we're actively working with them to sort out your problem as soon as possible. Once again, I'm so sorry for the problems you've faced. Best regards The Cowling & Wilcox Team
