My Account

I can't access my Account

If you have shopped with us before are unable to access your Scribbler account and have already tried 'forgot password?' link then please contact us from here and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can. Usually it is a mistyping of the original email address that might cause this, but we will be happy to investigate. We may have to run through a few security / ID questions with you as part of our resolution process.

I have forgotten my Account details

Forgotten your Password?

If you have lost your username or password then simply click on ‘My Account’ at the top of the page and then click ‘forgot password?’ beneath the login box.

You’ll then need to provide your e-mail address and within a few minutes an e-mail will be sent to you from Scribbler containing a link to reset your password.

It's asking me to set a new Password?

If you have previously shopped with Scribbler.com please be aware that we relaunched our website in November 2018. Consequently, for security purposes, we are inviting all returning customers to set a new password. Instructions will be provided on the screen, thank you in advance, for your cooperation in doing this.

Are my personal details secure?

We take security very seriously at Scribbler and we want our customers to feel comfortable using our website.

We respect your right to privacy and will only process personal information you provide to us in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998, the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 and other applicable privacy laws including GDPR.

For more information, please see our Privacy Policy.

Staying Safe Online

To help stay safe online, always use a unique password for each website you interact with. Aim for a strong level of password protection by choosing a password of at least 12 characters in length, and using a mixture of alpha-numerical characters, plus special characters (if permitted).

Beware of phishing emails. If you are ever unsure of an email purporting to be from Scribbler, please feel free to get in touch and report it to our Customer Service Team who will be happy to help investigate.

I want to close my account

We're sorry to hear that you would like your account terminated, but on doing so, we will complete a full deletion of your customer data and unsubscribe you from any future emails. Please email customerservice@scribbler.com and a request for us to delete your account. Bear in mind it can take up to a month for this process to be completed.

Our Gifts

Can I return a Gift Order?

Returning Gift products to us:

If your Gift arrives damaged or faulty, you can return it to us within 14 days of receiving it. Please contact our team at customerservice@scribbler.com for our returns address, putting 'Gift Return' as the subject line. 

  • If you are eligible for a refund, we will reimburse the price you have paid for the product(s) onto the method of payment from your original transaction.
  • Alternatively, we can offer to resend a replacement item free of charge.
  • Please note, we will be unable to offer both a refund and a resend.

Our stores are unable to process refunds or accept returns for products purchased online.

Gift Delivery

Gift orders will usually be sent via Royal Mail 48 hour tracked delivery. This follows the date of dispatch, so please check the cut off times on our website and look out for the estimated delivery time shown in your My Account Order History page, or Order Dispatch Email. 

All gift orders require a signature on delivery and can only currently be sent within the UK.

In Scribbler's bid to stay green, we are proud to state that the packaging we use to post our gifts is completely eco-friendly and recyclable* - yes, even those pesky fill chips! Instead of polystyrene, we use starch based void fill chips to protect your items in transit which are 100% biodegredable and compostable. 

*We recognise that we can always do more, and some exclusions do apply if your item is fragile and we think your parcel would use some bubblewrap for extra protection. Please note that this just relates to gifts sent directly from Scribbler HQ and not those marked as being fulfilled by a partner supplier.

Do your stores and websites have the same Gifts?

While there will usually be some overlap between the gifts we offer on the website and those found in our stores, we cannot guarantee that they will always be available at the same times in all places. 

If you would like to check if your local store has something you have seen on the website, please contact us and we will be happy to check for you. 

I had a Gift in my basket but now it's gone...

Gift products will be held in your basket for a short period of time.  However in order to satisfy demand, these will be removed and made re-available to others periodically in order to meet current demand. 

We therefore recommend you complete your gift purchase as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. 

I'd like to add a message with my Gift order

While we don't yet have a way to do this online, if you would like a short gift message to be included with your gift order (20 words max, and not more than two line breaks) then please email our team at customerservice@scribbler.com before placing your gift order.  This will be cut and pasted onto a compliment slip so please take care with your spelling as we cannot edit it.  Any message that exceeds our word count or line break limits may not fit on the slip and we cannot take any responsibility for how it looks. 

I made a mistake with my Gift Order

If you made a mistake with your gift order (i.e wrong address, or quantity) we will try to help, especially if you let us know promptly (i.e within 5-10 minutes of placing your order) however our orders are processed very quickly, so we cannot promise to solve every request.

If you made a mistake, and have not yet received an Order Dispatch email, then please email our team on customerservice@scribbler.com with your 'Mistake and your Order Number' in the subject line and we'll try to help. 

If your item has already been packed, or dispatched then we are probably unable to help at all as it will be packaged and sealed, or already with a third party courier service. 

 

 

Delivery

How do you ship your cards?

We offer a variety of delivery options, depending on speed and destination which are all listed on our Delivery Page here with prices and timescales.

This includes:

  • UK Delivery and International Delivery Options.
  • Back To Me Service - Your card and partner envelope are sent back to you, inside an external envelope, allowing you to fully review your card, add a message and hand write the partner envelope ready for giving or posting on to your recipient.
  • Direct To Recipient Service - Your card goes inside a partnering envelope and is delivered direct to your recipient's address.
  • All of our cards are printed and shipped from Guernsey.

Gifts are sent separately to cards, with separate delivery options.  

Am I able to send a card to someone other than myself?

You sure can!

Simply choose the delivery address from your Address Book, or enter a new address. if you opt for our Direct To Recipient Service, the card will go addressed to your recipient, ready for them to open.

If you want to review your card, or perhaps hand write your message inside, then choose our Back To Me Service. This will send the card and a partnering envelope inside an external envelope so you can review it and add your own touches before hand delivering or posting it on to your recipient.

Multiple Card Orders

If you are purchasing several cards in one transaction, please take care to decide whether you want them to all to go Direct to Recipient, or if you want these returned to you. We can send up to 4 cards in one package if going Back to Me. Quantities of more than this will be split into several packages. Please check our Delivery Pages for a breakdown of delivery charges if sending multiple cards.

Do you ship overseas?

Yes, Scribbler.com uses Royal Mail Airmail to ship your cards anywhere in the world. Unfortunately, gifts cannot currently be sent outside of the UK.

To destinations within the EU the delivery time for cards is usually 5 working days. For destinations in the Rest Of the World, the delivery time for cards is approximately 10 days.

Please note that in light of customer feedback to keep delivery costs to a minimum, our Airmail service is not tracked. if your order does not arrive on time, we will be unable to check on it's progress. Please wait the full estimated arrival time before reporting the order as missing. We will do our best to help.

Do you deliver to BFPO addresses?

At Scribbler we greatly respect the men and women who serve Great Britain in the Armed Forces. Therefore, you’ll be pleased to know that we do send to British Forces Post Office addresses and we will happily do this free of charge. Please contact us for more details. Delivery times for this service can vary depending on location.

My Order

Where is my Order?

Cards and Gifts - Arrive Separately

Our cards and gifts are processed independently of each other, from separate warehouse locations, so will be dispatched separately.  This is to improve speed and to minimise your delivery costs as best we can.  Please visit our delivery pages to learn about their respective cut off times, and options and please allow the full delivery timescales to pass before contacting us. 

If you chose a tracked service, (including gifts) your tracking number can usually be found in your Dispatch Email, or Order History (only once your order has been dispatched).  Gift orders require a signature and depending on your chosen delivery method, will either go via Hermes or Royal Mail. 

If you placed your Order less than 3 days ago:

It is likely your order is still on it's way, if you chose standard 1st Class UK Delivery.  This is because this delivery method can take up to 3 working days to arrive following the date of dispatch.  

Please wait until the fourth working day before reporting your item as late or missing as we will be unable to help prior to this. In the case of late, or missing Orders, we will always do our best to help, either with a resend or credit note (not both). We can only resend items to the same delivery address and using the same delivery method that was chosen at the time of your original order, amends and upgrades will not be possible. 

At busy times such as Christmas, Valentine's or over Bank Holiday Weekends, or at times of adverse weather conditions, Royal Mail and our other courier partners can require additional time to deliver your items. We ask for your patience at these times and allow sufficient time for your order to arrive in the run up to and over these periods.

If your order is urgent, or needed for a certain date, we recommend you opt for our UK Next Working Day or Guaranteed Saturday UK Delivery services so that you can track your item and better safeguard the exact delivery time. Your Order Dispatch email will show the Tracking number, if you chose a tracked service. 

Check the Dispatch Date:

Please note the Dispatch Date is the date your order will be printed (if a card) and posted. Or if it is a gift, it is the date it is collected from us to go out on delivery.  It is not the date your order will reach its destination.

Standard orders placed before 4pm Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays) will usually be dispatched on the same day*.

If you ordered before 4pm and chose 1st Class UK Delivery, your order will enter the post that weekday afternoon, and could take 1-3 working days following the date of dispatch to arrive. While Royal Mail pledge that 93% arrive the next working day, this is not a guaranteed or tracked service and hence the advice to allow up to 3 working days.  For Gift orders, the standard tracked service can take 48 hours to be delivered, following the date of dispatch. 

Friday & Weekend Orders:

Orders placed after 4pm on Fridays, over Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays will be dispatched on the Next Working Day and then the usual delivery estimated time will apply - so 1-3 working days for 1st Class UK Post.

International Orders:

In response to customer feedback, our Airmail services for Cards are not tracked in order to help minimise costs. While we advise that EU Airmail post can take approximately 5 working days and Rest of the World Airmail can take approximately 10 working days, it can vary by country and postal service. If you would like to use a tracked service, we recommend you use our Back to Me service and have your order sent first to you - with a spare envelope, and that you arrange your tracked service independently.

Gifts cannot currently be posted outside of the UK.

Next Working Day & Guaranteed Saturday Orders:

Both of these services are guaranteed, tracked services which require a signature on delivery, but may be disrupted if there is adverse weather, or unforeseen circumstances such as strike or other disruption. At busy times such as Christmas, Royal Mail may need more time to deliver your item, and could attempt delivery later in the day. We realise this is not ideal, but these decisions are made by Royal Mail and are not determined by Scribbler.

Your order must be placed before 2pm Monday-Thursday (excluding Bank Holidays) to go Next Working Day. Next Working Day Orders placed on a Friday will usually be delivered the following Monday, however some local depots may attempt delivery on Saturday, this is at their discretion. For Guaranteed Saturday Delivery, your Order must be received before 2pm on Friday (excluding Bank Holidays - i.e. Good Friday).

You will receive a copy of your tracking number in your Order Dispatch Email, and it will also be visible in your Order History, once your Order has been processed and Dispatched. You can drop this number into Royal Mail's Track My Item website - taking care to copy it exactly and not carry over any spaces at the beginning or end of the number. At busy times such as 12pm-2pm and in the run up to Christmas, this website can become delayed in providing updates and if this happens, we recommend you try again later in the day.

If Scribbler, or Royal Mail, are shown to be late in delivering your order on the Track My Item system, we will refund the postage charge for you. If your order was placed after the cut off time, or, if you missed the delivery attempt, a refund of delivery charges will not be possible, but we will do our best to help you in these situations.

Missed your Next Working Day or Saturday Delivery Attempt?

If you missed your Next Working Day or Guaranteed Delivery Attempt, the Royal Mail will usually leave a 'Sorry We Missed You' card with details of what you can do next. Usually the item will be available to collect from a named location, 24 hours later, or they may offer instructions on how to arrange a re delivery. 

If you missed your gift order, Hermes or Royal Mail (depending on your chosen delivery method) will leave instructions on what to do.  All gift orders require a signature on delivery. 

Further Help:

You can find out our delivery information, methods and timescales here. *In cases of adverse weather, strikes or other ad-hoc unavoidable events, we will do our best to communicate interruptions to any service on the website, via email and/or on Social Media.

Can I cancel or change my Order?

Online print on demand items or Cards

All cards ordered online from Scribbler are print on demand, custom products.

In order to ensure speedy delivery, all of our card and print on demand products are individually printed to the customer’s requirements very soon after the order is placed, and as such, we usually cannot change or cancel an order once the order confirmation has been sent to you as it will be entering production.

You can view the status of your Order by going to your My Account and pressing Order History.

I want to change / correct the address:

Customers are responsible for entering correct delivery details at all times. We offer a Postcode Look Up to help verify your address, however this may not prove 100% accurate, especially for new build properties, so it is the Customer's responsibility to check the address is correct, before placing their Order.

We are usually unable to change or correct an address, especially once the card has entered production as our envelopes are printed and paired with your card design right away.   Or our gift fairies have picked and packed your gift in a different warehouse.  Usually the best course of action here, is to place a new order with the correct address details.

However, if you let us know immediately and if you have not yet received your Dispatch Email, we will try our best to help, but can't promise miracles, especially at busy times. 

  • For querying a change to your order, please contact our team via customerservice@scribbler.com.
  • Please include your Order Number in the subject line and full details in the body of the message as to: exactly what you'd like changed. 
  • If your message is not clear, or if you do not reply to any request for further information, then there is a risk your order will be processed in time with our daily cut off, or that it may miss the daily cut off for same day dispatch.  

I think I accidentally left the card blank / forgot to write a message:

Our website takes you through the Personalisation journey to help avoid the scenario of you leaving it blank by mistake. If this happens and you chose our Back to Me service, you will receive a spare envelope which means you can still write a message in before passing the card to your recipient. If you chose the Direct to Recipient option, then regrettably once the card is in production, we are unable to cancel it and it is likely it will be sent out, all be it blank. As all of our online cards are printed on demand, customer products created bespoke to your order, we are usually unable to cancel or refund an order where user error was at fault, however we will always do our best to assist so feel free to contact us in this scenario.

If you want to check if you entered a message, please Contact Us and provide your name, email address and Order Number for us to investigate. Our Customer Service team are available 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays) and will usually respond the same day, but could take up to 48 hours at peak times (ie in the run up to, and just after Christmas, Valentine's Day and Mother's Day).

How we can help:

Even if it is not possible to cancel, or amend your Order, we will always do our best to try and assist, so please email or call us with your order number, name and the details of the issue as soon as possible and we will let you know what action may or may not be possible. Our Customer Service team are available 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays).

Friday & Weekend Orders

Please note, that due to the high volume of orders placed after 2pm on a Friday and before 9am on a Monday, we are unable to make any amends or corrections to personalised messages, addresses or cancellations of orders received over this period as they go to print first thing on Monday, before our Customer Service department opens.

If your order is impacted in this way, please call us so we can attend to your query as rapidly as possible.

Why does the card on my order confirmation not show my personalisation?

When you receive your order confirmation please be aware that the card shown will not display your personalised card. It is just a universal design of the style of card you have chosen.

My card arrived damaged / bent

All of our cards are quality control checked by human hand before leaving our printers and distribution center.

How did it become damaged?

We will do our best to help by way of providing a resend, credit note, or if we are able to verify a fault during production, then a refund will be offered in light of the fault.

This has happened to me:

I am having trouble paying for my Order.

How to tell if your Order was successful:

Once we have processed your order, if it has been successful you will be redirected to an order confirmation screen, and you will receive a confirmation e-mail containing the details of your order within 10 minutes of placing your order. You can also see a history of, and status of your orders when you login to your account.

The most common problems:

Check the postcode.  If an invalid postcode is entered either into the billing or delivery address this will stop your payment going through. Please take care to check you enter a full, correct postcode using the correct format for that geographic location.  The letter O and the digit 0 being used incorrectly, or not using the correct number of characters or spacing will all cause faults. 

Interruptions to internet connection.  Any interruption will disrupt the payment, so please try to find reliable service before placing your order. 

Old browsers and Operating Software. If you are using an older browser, or operating software, this may cause problems to your experiences on our website. If you cannot easily upgrade to a newer version, then please try an alternative device or visit one our our stores.

Invalid card type. The cards and payment methods available on our website may be subject to change.  Please ensure you only attempt to pay with one of the cards or payment types show during the checkout.  If it is not shown, then we probably do not accept it at this time.  Let us know if your preferred payment method is missing, as we monitor this regularly depending on demand. 

If you are putting your Order through now and experiencing a delay or issue:

Please avoid refreshing, closing or hitting the back button while your payment is processing as this is likely to cause either an error with your order, or may cause you to be charged multiple times for your order. Any interruption to the connection, either by user or to the internet service can cause the system to take longer than usual processing the request. If there is a problem, it will return an error page. If it processes the payment, then you will see an Order Confirmation page. Please be patient and wait to see which is returned.  

Did you see an Error Message?

If an error screen or message shows while trying to place your order, please check the following:

Was your payment method one we accept? Please check our Payment page for details of accepted card types and payment methods.

Are the details you have entered correct? Please check that names entered exactly match how they are presented on your chosen card, that address and card numbers are all accurate.  The postcode also needs to be entered perfectly, see above. 

Could your internet have timed out for a short spell? Even a brief interruption to internet connection can cause a payment attempt to fail. Please ensure you have good, secure connection before attempting to make a payment. Please do not attempt to refresh or hit the back button while a payment is processing.

Do you have sufficient funds and permissions to complete your transaction?

If your card fails on three occasions, we recommend you try contacting your bank in the first instance.

If you still have trouble after checking the above, please Contact Us, taking care to share details of the device and browser you used, along with a general description of your location - i.e. Town / Country and the payment method you were attempting.

For security reasons, remember to never include details of your card number in any correspondence.

I have a promo code; how do I use it?

If you’re lucky enough to have received a Scribbler coupon code then once you’ve personalised your card and have been directed to your basket, click on ‘coupon code’, enter the characters into the white box that appears, then click ‘Update my basket’. If your code is valid, you will see the discount applied to your Order Total. If it has not been successful you will see an error message.

Why did it not work?

The most common reasons the code will not work are:

  • It is a one time only or one use per customer code.
  • The code may have expired.
  • The code may require a minimum spend threshold to be met.
  • The code will not work in conjunction with another offer, discount or code.
  • The code has been mis-typed. Most of our codes are case sensitive.

Am I able to return my card?

In order to ensure speedy delivery, all of our products are individually printed to the customer’s requirements as soon as the order is placed, as a customer personalised product and as such, refunds and replacements will only be made if the product is damaged or faulty, or does not meet the specifications of the order.

If this is not the case we reserve the right to withhold any claim for a refund or replacement. To return a card, please first obtain prior written consent to do this from our Customer Service team and then send it within 28 days to the following address quoting your order reference number and your reason for returning the card. The customer is responsible for the delivery costs and safe return of their order to Scribbler. We recommend you obtain and retain proof of postage.

Our Cards

How big are your cards?

Scribbler offer two card sizes online: Standard and Large, at different price points, shown below.

  • Standard – 120mm wide x 170mm high Price £3.49 P&P.
  • Large – 205mm wide x 290mm high Price £5.99 P&P.

Each card is printed matte and comes with a cream envelope when sent as Back To Me.

All of our online cards are printed to order, as personalised, custom products.

Are the cards glossy or matte?

Our online cards used to be glossy, but since October 2017, we have changed to using a matte card. This is to help our products to be recycled.

Scribbler are proud to regularly review our environmental impact and will continue to work on ways to improve our carbon footprint, including rolling out corn-starch biodegradable carrier bags and launching 'naked' cards across our stores in 2018 to help reduce the amount of cellophane plastic packaging.

You have a lot of rude cards, how can I avoid these?

Scribbler is known for its creative, humorous and sometimes controversial greetings cards which may contain words, phrases or themes of an adult content: i.e. swearing or innuendo. We try to ensure cards of this type are restricted to to our 'rude' and 'swearing' categories and filters, although some of a milder nature may occasionally be found in our 'funny' category or elsewhere on our site.

If you wish to avoid cards of this nature:

Please consider trying the easy-to-use Rude Filter located on the top right of all our card category pages. The 'Yes' box will be automatically ticked unless you select the 'No' box which should filter out all our most offensive cards. We also strive to ensure our kids range is wholly appropriate for children, and are thrilled to offer an ever growing collection of kids cards with colourful characters, ages and playful scenes. We do not actively market to children and our website is fully geared with adult shoppers in mind.

If you feel a card has been accidentally assigned to the wrong category:

Please feel free to let us know, including the web address or url in your message and we will be happy to review this and rectify where necessary.

How do I personalise your cards?

You can personalise our cards in up to four different ways:

1) All cards offered on our website can have a message added to the inside.

2) Our Photo Upload cards allow you to add one or more images of your choice to the front of the card (how many, will depend on the template of the card chosen).

3) Some of our cards will let you add a name, message or birthday to the front of the card.

4) In some cases you can add both an image and text to the front of the card.

Adding a Name:

Many of our cards allow you to add the recipient’s name to the front of the card. This can be done by using our personalisation tool. Simply add the recipient’s name into the text box and you will see how it looks on the card!

Some cards have character limits depending on the space on the card. Make sure you have personalised all the available areas on the card, and that you have fully checked your changes to be sure it is free of spelling mistakes and is visually showing what you would like to see printed on your card. We are unable to take any responsibility for personalisation mistakes created by user error. Please take care to review your card fully before placing your order.

Adding a Photo:

Some of our cards also allow you to add a photograph to the card. You can add a photograph to your card using the upload a photo button. From this, you can select a photograph from your device to add to your card. You can then edit the photograph on the card with the options on our personalisation tool. Please take care to check the image appears exactly as you would like it to be printed. We cannot be held accountable for anything arising from user -error.

The photo may be rejected if it fails to meet our max and min size requirements or accepted format types. If this happens, an error message will be shown on the screen. We reserve the right to cancel your order if inappropriate content is found to have been uploaded. This can include but is not exclusive to: images depicting nudity, drug paraphernalia, criminal activities and all forms of hate crimes.

Personalising Text Inside:

All of our cards let you write a personal message of up to 500 characters on the inside of the card. We offer a variety of text-styles and colours. If you choose to write a personal message inside your card, please check the Preview screen carefully, as this is exactly what we will print, and we don’t take responsibility for mistakes in personalisation. If you write large amounts of text, the text will try to auto-size down. However it can't go below a certain size, so please take care to check that none of your message has been chopped off. We can only print what fits into the printable area and cannot be held responsible for user error.

Can my personalisations be rejected?

Scribbler is known for its cheeky and fun adult style cards; however, we have an Online Duty of Care to make sure that all our customers, and their recipients do not receive unwanted content. Therefore, any photo or text upload cards of a sexual, abusive or criminal nature whether photographed or in illustrated form or presented in written forms, are not permitted. Scribbler reserves the right to reject an order if the user tries to personalise the card in any of the following ways.

  • Depicting sexually explicit content. i.e. Nudity of any kind.
  • Depicting drug use
  • Depicting any form of racism
  • Depicting any threats or acts of violence/harassment
  • Depicting any other content which is deemed inappropriate or criminal in activity

Scribbler will contact the customer in these circumstances to arrange a refund.

Persistent offenders will be banned from shopping with Scribbler.com and may be reported to relevant authorities.

Can I pick up a personalised card in store?
