I ordered one item but they took money for 5 items. I contacted them one minute afterwards to point out the error and have now been told the items have been shipped. Thus cannot be true. They took £70 rather than. £20. BEWARE OF THIS THIEVING ORGANISATION

Shady! Hands off !

Not rating the product but shocking experience during a not completed order / payment process and strongly advise to check your PayPal/ bank activities, because this company takes the money of you no matter if you confirm the payment!!!!
Read the advert with my neighbour... we (pah! she) got curious about the product, go to the offer section and read Best Value offer roughly £18.. okay, let's do it says the neighbour ..logging into PayPal and immediately asked if money shall be taken off the account, but no price.., must be at the next page, at the order summary... instead we get redirected to the offer, with waheeey: ANOTHER extra offer, of an extra 60 sachets for £16ish but no NO THANKS or Opt OUT option. At that point, bare in mind, no order was confirmed nor was a payment summary provided, I felt extremely uncomfortable and we closed the window. Luckily we checked PayPal and saw that 2 orders have been deducted from the account. Both from Adlibris: 2 ORDER OFF £47.95 AND ANOTHER ORDER OFF £52.95, WITH THE SAME TIME STAMP!
We contacted PayPal immediately, explained the scenario and where told, that this company took the funds DURING THE ORDER PROCESS‼️ - ‼️NOT‼️AFTER ORDER CONFIRMATION ‼️of the account. We did not even hac to provide screenshots of our browser history, since the CS instantly confirmed that we're protected by PayPal policies, since they could see security flagging their system, and the fraud team will investigate if the company is in breach with PayPal policies.
We had go through several security checks ourselves, including changing passwords and a time consuming procedure.but are very relieved that a not confirmed order of £17.95 did not cost us over 100 quid, and that we where instantly supported by PayPal.
Just seeing that I now, received 2 Welcome, Hallo snd Happy Days emails from this company...and cannot wait to respond.

Mostly okay

Most of our order was good but one book is unreadable because the pages are stuck together. I don't even know what to do with this book now.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM!

I ordered a book, it normally comes to my house, they decided to reroute it. Never informed me. When I called Instabox they said it can easily be fixed but I need Adlibris to update the info.

When I got in touch with the worst customer care rep, I asked him to check with his manager, he refused. When I asked if there would be a FULL refund, he said yes. It was a small fraction that was refunded to me. And I had to install another app that was holding my money hostage in order for it to go to my account.

1. You have incorrect information for delivery.
2. Your customer rep LIED to me.
3. Made the refund even harder to get back.

This is a disgusting business model lead by immoral and unethical people.

Late delivery

There is a lovely collection of interesting books. It would be nice however if there was a mention that some books will take a long time to deliver. In my order, one of the books was very very late.

Delays, delays, delays

Delays, delays, delays. Adlibris does not have local storage and must procure the books from various other sources. This results in unacceptable delays. Never trust the expected delivery date, plan for months of waiting.

Two years in a row you've now not delivered on time for Christmas despite saying you'd be able to.

Now it's too late to find it elsewhere. Thanks again.
