Cross has gone downhill over the years Our company placed an order for pens in November 2022 and it's now July 2023. We can never get a straight answer about when or if our order will be produced in China. They're already making a fortune from pens that would cost $2 at a dollar store if it wasn't for the name on them. What good will their name be if they can't keep up with demand? How many people even use fancy pens nowadays, anyway? Maybe that's part of their problem, they were wasteful with their 5000% markup and didn't invest in their manufacturing and their production staff.

How a once great business has gone to… How a once great business has gone to the dogs. I have a few Cross pens and pencils and particularly love the porous point refill. I have been trying to obtain refills for quite some time but they appear to be out of stock everywhere in the UK. I have emailed several times with no response and the UK telephone number seems unmanned. My research shows that the business was acquired by a "venture capital" group in 2017 and I think that's what led to the demise of the business. Venture capitalists seem interested only in squeezing a business dry before they close it down resulting in delays and poor stocks. I will never buy a Cross pen again until I'm assured that they have a care about customers. I wonder if a "manager" will respond to these observations thus proving me wrong?

I am also struggling to make a contract… I am also struggling to make a contract with AT Cross UK, I tried Sales Person's direct mobile, office line, and series of e-mails to the sales. No luck. I read the comment below so I will try to call in American hours, which is evening time in UK, I guess. We sent a PO, but no acknowledgement, no communication from January! I have been trying over 6 weeks. What is actually going on???

Delivery time of 4.5 weeks + no response from customer service + unannounced customs fees of €42.14 I am absolutely disappointed and really shocked by the extremely poor service from your company!!! I ordered and paid for a pen on 18 March with the promise that it would be delivered within 5-7 days. After 7 days I checked the order status with your customer service on 26 March and was told that the pen would be dispatched shortly (next Thursday). The pen still hasn't arrived and I have sent three more emails to the customer services - 02 April , 07 April and 11 April - WITHOUT receiving a reply. The pen was delivered on 19 April. Almost 5 weeks after ordering... I have not received any information from Cross about the delivery. The Highlight: I only received the parcel after I had to pay €42.14 customs duty (i live in germany)!!!! It is unbelievably cheeky to simply pass these costs on to the customer without informing them in advance. I would NEVER have placed an order under these circumstances!

Can only really echo others' negativity… Can only really echo what others have already said below: the pens themselves (when in stock/arrive etc) are lovely. The customer service is non existent. And to have a website that will take payment but not record or actually follow through with an order is beyond outrageous. Truly, a pathetic experience. Buy from any other retailer.
