“Aiding and Abetting criminals. My voucher was stolen... Redletterdays call themselves a GIFTING experience company. However when reporting my voucher was stolen and being able to provide the voucher number they refused to do anything about it because I didn't pay for it... Really?? I didn't gift a voucher to myself? Absolute joke of a company. They clearly don't understand law and what ownership means”

“Where do I start...... Two day break given as a present which very few places seem to want to accept unless you go in the darkest depths of winter. If these places don't want to participate why the frig do they sign up for it. VERY VERY POOR..... Should be black letter days not red. I eagerly wait ur response....”

Thank you for leaving your comments and we are sorry to hear that you are having problems booking in your experience. I'm afraid some of our hotels do have booking restrictions. However if you could please get in touch with our Customer Service team they would be happy to check availability for your chosen dates for you.

“I can only echo what the other one star experiences say below. It’s a waste of money, please just give the people the cash and they can go online and get a much better deal. It’s a joke, we have spent many hours trying to find ANYTHING we could even bear to spend the vouchers on. Confusing, frustrating, if you like the person you are buying the gift for please don’t buy a RED LETTER DAY voucher.”

“So my parents purchased a voucher in Dec for Christmas. By Christmas day we discovered the place didn't accept the voucher it was meant for. This week I rang another location they also don't accept the voucher and its still showing on Red Letter days website! I have emailed and had no response. Meanwhile I have a useless voucher gir afternoon tea with champagne with no outlets in Kent or Sussex”

Thanks for leaving your feedback. As our vouchers are valid for such a long time, there are occasionally things that happen over the course of its validity which are beyond our control that will mean a voucher can no longer be used at a specific location. I'm very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please contact our Customer Service team on 0345 640 8000 who will be able to advise you of other alternative options.

“This is the worst experience og booking yiu could ever had. The company who rewarded me with this gift has cost me my sanity and temper. Got £300 to experience, exchanged £239 only to find hotel then wants lots of extras up to £180 basically onlt accepts bookings mon to thur and in the off peak months. What happened to my remaining £61, who knows. Then exchanged £239 for £189. Banked £50 but where is that. The new hotel doesn't answer the phone so will try to book by email. A shocking really bad experience. I will be telling my global supplier who gave me the gift that how bad it is and will tell all my other suppliers, avoid avoid.”

“Absolutely disgusting, I had a £100 voucher to redeem. The experience showed on the site as £102. I thoroughly read the faqs about how to redeem this gift card (which weren’t clear at all) and they then charged me the full £102. When I called up apparently the experience was actually £179 which was not shown anywhere on the website. Apparently they have an add and bank system for gift cards- of which I could find zero information. After all this, they gave me a £35 refund. Apparently they make it very clear how to redeem a gift card. Yeah, as clear as mud. They told me the old spiel about I’ll pass your comments along. Like duck they will. I’m now £67 out on what was supposed to be a gift. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT AS A GIFT UNLESS YOU WANT TO GIVE YOUR RELATIVES HASSLE.”

“Found your website really confusing and difficult to find any hotel locally that was doing afternoon tea. Resorted to phoning yourselves, whoever we spoke to needed customer service training - but eventually found and booked a local hotel which had not appeared on your site. When we went the hotel had no reservation made by you - they were excellent and honoured the voucher - no thanks to you. Would never buy red letter gift for my friends or family.”

“Appalling customer service! Joke of a company who don't know what good customer service is. Booked a helicopter flight through them with 'Adventure 001' that they cancelled 3 times due to bad weather, then because I took too long to re-book wanted to charge me another £25 for the pleasure !!! Asked for a refund from 'Red Letter Days' and was given a flat 'No'. AVOID BOOKING WITH EITHER COMPANY!”

Thank you for your comments. I am very sorry to hear that your experience was cancelled, we do appreciate how frustrating this can be. Unfortunately with weather dependent experiences, cancellations can occur from time to time. This is only ever done with the participants safety in mind. I apologise for any disappointment caused.

“We were given an Indulgent Escapes overnight break and booked the Billesley Manor Hotel as it had a spa, when we were on our way we called to ask a question but we were advised that the spa was shut, we called Red Letter day to see if we could swap to another hotel and they arranged for us to go to the Mercure Kiddeminster as they had a spa - BIG MISTAKE - the rooms were filthy and mouldy, the wallpaper was peeling off every wall, the food was awful, the staff were scarce and the spa was the local leisure centre which was jam packed with children having lessons on how to jump in! I complained to Red Letter in a lot more details but still haven't received any response 1 month later”

“Booked the Marco Pierre White, London Steakhouse deal. The main course chosen by us both, Beef Bourguignon, was of a poor standard. Having asked for one to be returned because it was tough, we then found that of the one piece of meat we were served, half of it was gristle. When raised with the Manager is said that was usual but would give the chef feedback on our disappointment! Deserts varied my pecan pie good but my companions lemon posset not so good. Wine expensive. Can not recommend, I’m sure there is better quality food to be had elsewhere.”

“Was given a £50 driving experience, I upgraded it to a £95 driving experience. EVERY time I tried to book the provider had either changed to another and they were no longer taking booking, or the new provider was fully booked and I was advised to call back in three months to rebook. Each time I tried to do this, the same thing happened and the loop restarted. I asked for refund after trying for nearly 18 months to book but they refused.”

“Received a 2 night break as a gift, virtually impossible to book over a weekend, very poor selection of hotels who take an age to answer. I would not recommend and I will never buy one of these as a gift. I feel I’ve been done!!”

“Red Letter Days may be ok for days out but trying to book a 2 night stay with a voucher for Friday and Saturday night is proving impossible. Hotels we have contacted have rooms available but won't accept vouchers. This is time consuming and makes a nonsense of their advertisement. Will most certainly not recommend.”

“Booked junior supercar driving red letter days booking system really easy to use but driveme wasn't had to ring then no dates were available for months so had to pay to extend voucher time then had to pay to have a time slot after 10am then they try to sell you additional insurance which isn't needed and the track is almost like a small oval which is great for kids but does mean the 6 laps are over very quick. My 15 yr old loved it and would do it again”

“The online booking was easy, however booking the actual experience was hard. My sister and I spent nearly £12 on phone calls! We are quite upset about this. Nowhere does it mention it's premium rate. We had to wait in line many times to even get any dates. When we finally booked it was a black Ferrari where all the experience photos were red. We hope the day will be special when it arrives. We also had to pay extra for insurance.”
