“Please ignore negative reviews about this company”

Colin W.
2/12/15

Please ignore negative reviews about this company. I ordered a large canvas print on saturday and it arrived on the following thursday, well packaged and in perfect condition. The print itself is of high quality and very well made. I could not be happier with the quality and service.

“I reckon the Mohka mottos must be: "the customer is...”

Alun B.
1/2/14

I reckon the Mohka mottos must be: "the customer is always wrong" and "we've got the money and we're keeping it". My experience comes from placing 5 orders over a year or so and being relatively happy with 4 of them. There will NEVER be another order from me, nor, I strongly suggest, from you. Because if things aren't to your satisfaction, and as other reviewers have said, I reckon you stand no chance of getting a fair deal unless you're prepared to take them to court - yes, even if the product is of poor quality or doesn't match the picture/description on the website (things the law is supposed to help guarantee). And despite the company not making it clear that it's you who's responsible for return postage (something that's also required by law - check out loads of entries on eBay for example, where this is made quite clear), that's exactly what this company will insist on. So if you've ordered a large canvas, that's up to £50 you'll be out-of-pocket if you need to return it because it's not of satisfactory quality and/or doesn't match the description. Bottom line: if you're thinking of buying from Mohka, good luck but prepare to be disappointed, frustrated and angry... oh, and add £20-£50 to the price just in case the canvas isn't what you expected. Buying from Mohka is, in my opinion, very much "at your own risk". (PS In the interests of space, Ive left out the chapters in my story which involve Trading Standards and my credit card company, both of which were quite helpful, but could only go so far, leaving me to choose either court action or donating the canvas to charity I chose the latter).

Ordered a large canvas from them which looked stunning on their site. The print quality is awful. It's as if they have run out of ink and are just passing this one off to make money. Initially they were apologetic but after us sending them photos they simply said that there was no error and we can have a refund for the print but we have to pay for all carriage. Just under £20 to be delivered and god knows what for us to arrange it's return. DO NOT USE THIS SITE

Despite reading some of the comments on this website, i had fallen in love with a print on their site and so decided to give them a go as there were some positive comments and the bad reviews seemed to be in the christmas rush. I ordered my print which arrived in the time it should but the delivery box was open when it arrived. On opening bubble wrap, canvas was very loose on a rough sawn timber frame, with creases in the middle of canvas and around the inside of the frame. Also a line across middle which was obviously a fault in the canvas. Couldn't get an answer on the phone but i did get an email. Basically had to return it at my own cost and then they will refund if they feel there is a fault. Gorgeous print but i was rather disappointed with the quality.

Company has the worst customer service ever, will never order from them again. Company is based in colchester not Blackpool. Also operating the same company under www.mohka.co.uk, explosive arts eBay, canvas art eBay. Canvas art print, and infusion art. I ordered an oasis print, you can see backwards writing behind were they have simply photo copied out of a magazine. Told by girl on phone most pics are borrowed from other places and laughed totaly shocked.

Excellent. Item is of fantastic quality and having scoured the internet in detail before purchasing Mohka proved to be the cheapest comparitive site by some distance. Emailed mohka the day after purchase and recieved an email with accurate delivery estimate within a couple of hours. Canvas took 10 days to arrive and looking around its delivery that seems to be the biggest gripe on this thread, however if you are prepared to wait then ultimately you should be more than happy based on my experience. Patience people..

Good company, i order my canvases 1.5 weeks ago and recieved them yesterday. They emailed me notifying me of there being a delay, which can only be expected at this time of year.

I then read this site and began to worry a little so i emailed their customer services and they got back to me assuring me delivery before christmas.

Canvases are great quality and i would use this company again. No damages, the products were well packaged.

Shockingly poor print quality. JPEG compression artefacts, pixelation and poor colour balance were visible from 3 metres away!

Has anybody anywhere had any phone calls returned by these people? I need to contact them but there really is a time when you should just give up! They said they sent me my order. I have not received it. Very very frustrating. Will put it down to experience. A very elaborate scam! Well done mohka, you must be making a fortune off unsuspecting people!

I had placed my order with Mohka prior to coming across the reviews on this site and began to worry. I really didn't need to.

I ordered my canvas on the 8th August 2010 and received it today 13th August 2010. I received 3 emails from Mohka during this period telling me the status of my order, etc. The canvas was in perfect condition and looks fantastic.

It is the first time I have used this company and will definitely use it again.

Great site... looked professional and reputable. Good prices and massive choice. Order process was easy and smooth. However! If (like me) you need to know that your order is going to actually happen this site and company will keep you guessing until the box arrives... and it does... in time and in good order. Would I buy again... no reason why not... but not sure I could cope with the way they do business... Shame because they did exactly what they said they would, but no answer from the phones and very very limited email correspondents put the fear of god into me. No need to put people off, but not for me. Not again..

After reading the terrible reviews about this website I was very worried that my order wuold not arrive! I can only assume that Mohka were having problems with demand over Christmas as I have received an excellent service from them. I placed an order 2 days ago and it has arrived today in excellent condition. They could perhaps improve ther service by sending you a confirmation email when your item has been despatched but other than they they offer a brillaint service at excellent prices!

I did have to phone to see where my order was but never found it hard to get through to them and always most helpful. My print arrived after the call the next day and was well packaged and wrapped and in perfect condition. My only slight disapointment was the colour was not as vivid as show on the site but still very pleased with it.

I ordered my xlarge canvas print on the 4th Jan, a few days later i saw this site with pretty bad reviews about Mohka etc and thought oh dear looks like we might have a problem in the near future.
To my delight my canvas 56' x 30' arrived on the 12 Jan, excellent quality and compared to many other websites i spent hours looking at also pretty cheap for the size.
I would definately buy from them again, they seem a small company that has obviously had problems when an extreemly busy period has overwhelmed them.

These guys cannot be trusted - AVOID! Despite their website promising to accept returns for a full refund (a statutory right consumers have having bought off the internet) they refuse to do this! Will only offer 60% of cost paid and then refuse to give a return number (which they will not accept without a number) so that you are stuck. Then they do not respond to emails and never answer the phone!

WARNING DO NOT USE MOHKA!

Placed order back in November'08, for which the money taken straight from my account. In still have not received goods and have had numerous failed attempts in contacting this outfit via telephone and email. TRADING STANDARDS are now investigating.

Do not be fooled by web site, use an alternative canvas company. You have been warned!

I ordered a print on 22nd Oct received on 06. 11. 09. The contact with this company is really erratic. After reading other reviews I thought I'd lost my money. Print has arrived eventually and is good. For others who are disappointed my point of contact was *******@googlemail.com or *******@simplycanvasart.co.uk. I sent emails everyday and did receive some replies. Simply Canvas Art is their sister company. I hope this helps.

Ordered item over 1 month ago, still not received item, unable to get through to customer services, no reply to countless emails, spent £100, and really not sure if i will ever receive my goods. Left lots of messages on the voicemail to get in touch and never had my calls returned. Total rip off.

Placed an Order for £120 worth of canvases over 2 weeks ago, nothing has been delivered and our enquiry emails have not been answered. I wonder if anyone has had a good experience with this company? I wish I had read these reviews before I placed the order! We are now registering a complaint with Paypal to see if we can get a refund. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

My order took nearly 2 weeks to arrive, but as i could see out of my window i could see the country was covered in snow, so I'm more than happy they even managed to get it to me, chill out and just wait for a quality canvas print and it will arrive.
