Dear Mr Fox, I just wanted to thank you for taking the trouble to write to say my order for presser feet for my Bernina would be a bit late. They arrived by the same post as your letter. I recently bought a Bernina 550 QE from my local agent, and another presser foot also. The service I got from them was very poor, and they could not care less that my orders did not turn up when they promised. In fact I waited three weeks for a presser foot from them. Needless to say I shall be ordering anything I need from you in future, although you are at the other end of the country!

Many thanks, Tessa H...

Dear John, Thanks so much I will listen out for it this week. The Bernina 930 is brilliant. My other Bernina record I bought from you about 7 years ago and it's still going strong! But this one is so much smoother than the 830.

Thanks again, Katharine

Hello Mr Fox,

I received the Embroidery unit on Thursday, (which was a very quick delivery), and your letter came on Friday with setting up instructions. I did not have time until today (Sunday) to set it up but have done so now, (with a little help from my husband), with no problems at all and have embroidered one of the motifs.

I am thrilled with my purchase and thank you very much for your quick service and help.

I would just like to say a big THANK YOU to the gentleman I spoke to on the telephone about an hour ago. I have had my Bernina for nearly 50 years and it has been absolutely great but the other day after using it the machine just kept running, even though I was nowhere it. On phoning Howdens the gentleman (whose name unfortunately I do not have) told me exactly what the problem was and how to fix it.

I did what I was told to do, to the foot pedal, and now it is working correctly again. You have saved me the expense of replacing my lovely sewing machine and I cannot Thank You enough. It is so refreshing in this day and age to get such helpful service.

Just wanted say thank you for the speed of delivery, and quality of service I received from your company. I was aware that the scissors I wanted would be a special order and had thought they would take at least 3 to 4 days to arrive. They arrived the 'Next Day'. Great service many thanks.
