Minuscule Labels

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
These labels are so ridiculously small I cannot read the lettering without a magnifying glass. Also they are made of poor quality paper. Never again. Too expensive for the lousy product produced.

Slow turn around.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Slow turn around. After one month and haven't received my product, they told me it takes 6 weeks for the mail to get across the country...because of Covid. But if I really need it urgently for a special fee I could receive it in two days. I asked how this could be since it takes weeks to ship anything halfwayLook elsewhere across the country.. They hung up.

Horrible!!!! Our account got hacked!!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I ordered due to their promotion. When I went to pay in order to have a secure checkout, there were some additional crazy fees!!! I didnt pay the fee.. guess what!!! Account got hacked twice and it wasnt through a debit card. It was our checking account number and guess who is the ONLY person that had our account number seeing we were a new business. You guessed it. So if you dont want your account hacked. Youll be expected to pay a crazy fee. And their customer service is not local

Pour service

Artistic checks for what ever reason did not pull payment when I expected them too. I received many looking fraudulent looking emails, then followup bills. apx 3 month turned over a $9.76 charge to a collection agency. Never will do business with them again nor recommend there service.

I had the exact same experience! I paid with a credit card.

Everything went through. A couple of weeks later, I received my checks. Then, about a month after that. I started receiving past due notices for the checks!

The notices all threaten a collection agency. What kind of scam did I get myself into?

Don't Buy from this Company its a scam!

I ordered checks from them and it says the symbol is included so I pick the symbols I want and then process everything great and when I received my checks there are no symbols. I called customer service and he said it's not included!

Whaaaaat? It shows on my receipt it is included! and he said is not on my system that is says included! I was told to reorder it and I said No Way, Jose!!!!

your system is not working! The customer service has had an attitude instead of fixing the problem he is making it worse by arguing with me.

Bad Company! Don't even try to buy from this company.

Exorbitant Shipping and Handling Fees!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
$25.55 for shipping and handling on four little boxes of checks that will undoubtedly come in one package!!!? Really, Artistic Checks? Didn't show me that little nugget until the 'submit order' button. Also, I don't like having to opt out of the the two (expensive) check protection programs Artistic Checks sticks in your order without your permission. Opt out of first, most expensive, ready to proceed, and a SECOND check protection scheme has popped into my cart. Your bank should offer these services for free, by the way. (Also have to opt out of having them spam you with offers.) These are sketchy company policies that make me want to avoid Artistic Checks.

Not Happy customer from with Artistic Checks

Front of ad says: (when bringing up on the internet) This is why I picked this company from the internet - to get a free box. SPECIAL OFFER! 1st Box $4.95, 2nd Free + Free Shipping New Customers Only Enter Offer Code At Cart. USE CODE: 4YH6 I received one box, so called Customer Service. I was a new customer - called customer Service and they said I had to order four boxes. Never found that. Also found: ***All new customers can enjoy our special introductory offer Buy One Box of checks, Get One Free! Do NOT buy from these people. I will NEVER order from them again. Shirly Euler / Oregon

Who are you, and what have you done with my Artistic Checks?

Oh, what ever has happened to the Artistic Checks I've used so many times over the past 20 years? What happened to the checks that would arrive on time, printed as ordered? And labels... who is responsible for sending me labels that are printed so incorrectly that one half of the name and address is one label and the bottom half on another label. Hello, quality control? Are you out sick? When will you be back? The reasons I get for wrong and missing orders are various. Customer service, what are they teaching you over there? Who's running this outfit? I hate to say it, but run.... do not walk... to another check printing company. This one has entered the Twilight Zone and may never come back.

I had the exact same experience. Many years of excellent service and now they are almost a scam and fraud.

Insisting that you buy their EZ check protection and a minimum of two boxes over the phone. Incredibly high shipping and processing fees for a small box of checks. Claimed I am not in the their system but have been a customer for twenty years and more. Must be under new ownership.

Bad now. Bad company!!!!!!

Artistic Checks Personal Check Review

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I have used Artistic Checks for more than 20 and had noticed that the last few times that I placed an order, paid extra for "rush order" that it took longer and longer to get my checks. But this is the last time I will ever use Artistic Checks. It's been two and a half weeks, nothing. And their silly customer service people play dumb and are no help. SPARE YOURSELF.....DO NOT USE ARTISTIC CHECKS! EVER!! ULTRA POOR SERVICE!!!

RIDICULOUS

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Paid the expedited shipping fee - was told I would have the checks the VERY next day. It has been over 7 days - no checks. I will report this to the Attorney General and to the BBB. In addition, when I was ordering, the salesman was very pushy and rude. Initially, he had signed me up for a bunch of stuff that I didn't even ask for or want - he just tacked it all on to my bill, and before I knew it, a 7.95 offer had turned in to about 40$. When I questioned him line by line about the bill, he begrudgingly took the items I did not want off of my bill. His name was Marvin. I am livid.

Terrible Customer Service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I re-ordered checks which were mailed to me without my name and address printed on them. When I complained I was mailed a new shipment however I was charged for shipping on both shipments. Does nobody check order before they are mailed???????? Why do you need 100 words to get my message to you? I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER. NEVER, NEVER. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER. NEVER, NEVER. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, order from your company again. I would also like to have the $12.97 refunded to me for shipping charges on your mistake. You advertise free shipping.

Overpriced

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I had ordered checks some time ago from Artistic checks and decided to order again after trying several other places. I placed an order and they processed it and THEN sent me a bill for 60$ (I had already paid the 20+ on the order sheet. They informed me I had been a previous customer and the offer was for new customers only but never did they call or email me to tell me they would be charging me a HUGE amount because of this. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE. They should have to specify the amount you will be charged if you are a return customer.
