Order the same merch from more reputable stores
So disappointed in my experience with Plus44. I ordered from the Silverstone collection for my brother's birthday. I saw it said 6-7 week delivery time, but didn't specify an actual date. I looked a couple of weeks later and it still said the same delivery lead time on the product page, and there was no update on my order.
I noticed on the F1 store that you could buy the same product with dispatch the next day. I was confused, so I reached out to the customer service team at Plus44 and they said it would be 6-7 weeks from my order date. I cannot understand how other retailers can send you the products from this store significantly more quickly.
I asked them to cancel my order, to which they swiftly replied that there are no cancellations. All sales are final and there are no refunds. I was horrified at this response, which also seems to be against Trading Standards in the UK? These are not customised items, it doesn't even sound like the products have been produced yet. I challenged the customer service team and they ignored multiple emails thereafter. I have not heard from them again.
I raised a dispute with my credit card company and have managed to get my money back. I ordered from the Official F1 store and got the same T-Shirt 2 days later....
Still cannot quite get my head around the lead times. Nor can I understand the no refunds or cancellations policy. Customer service is non-existent and I honestly cannot believe that Lewis Hamilton is associated with this business. This experience has left my with a bad taste in my mouth....not protecting your customers and fans feels, dare I say, greedy? I so wanted to support Lewis and Mission 44 directly but I won't bother in the future.
