My purchase was 5 days late, and unfortunately a present for my daughters birthday ,which was missed. I tried contacting Bax music by email, and phone, but had no response either way. Very poor.

Very poor experience with BAX Music. Payment taken before I received my order. My order failed to arrive when promised. Subsequent promised delivery dates were not met. Call backs from Support staff never happened and promises made were broken. When it finally looked as though my order had been lost they agreed to dispatch another one however would not say when I would receive it just given a vague “ hope” date with dispatch promised “as soon as possible” i.e no date. I then said I wished to cancel my order but they wouldn’t let me so I’ve had to contact my Credit Card Company and raise a Section 75. A very bad experience with BAX Music and will certainly never be buying from them again.

Like many here I have suffered a catalogue of issues and seem to be nowhere near sorting them out. Briefly, I bought a PA, it wasn't fit for purpose at anything over one-third volume. Returned it. Got a brand new one which was exactly the same. So asked for a refund as it wasn't fit for purpose. I was offered a 3rd, refused, and spent many weeks back and forth before finally getting help after writing to the UK CEO. It was accepted that it wasn't fit for purpose and I was offered a credit to the full amount. Was then asked to pay for the return, before finally getting a pre-paid label. Returned the item and some 6 weeks later it turned up back at my door, as 'repaired' despite the agreement in place. So that has now gone back again and now they have emailed to say they are knocking £25 off any credit, no reason and when asked they couldn't provide one and are still searching for the reason. The customer service team does not appear to record anything or check the statuses of orders and simply sends out wonderful generic emails which only make them look worse. I have had enough, no more credit notes, I want my money back and I can then draw a line under this debacle.

I ordered an item paying extra for the 2-day delivery and it still hasn't arrived yet 10 days later... Bax have the cheek to send me an email asking me to review my purchase! Haha! This company is a joke! Bax can't tell me when my item should arrive, and they gave me a parcel tracker code that doesn't even work. I should've listened to all the bad reviews of Bax on Trust Pilot (eg a guy saying his guitar hasn't arrived 6 weeks after ordering it) but I wanted to give them a chance. I will not be ordering from them again – first and and last time. I'll continue to use Thomann instead because they are more reliable and very reputable.

Worst customer experience ever, just confusion, at one point blamed me of selecting a product that was out of stock when I went out of my way to use their web filter to show items in stock, even selected a guitar in a different colour so I got one currently in stock. Bax asked me if I had taken a screen shot before ordering to prove I had selected a stocked item! so basically "Mr Customer you are telling lies" The guitar never arrived on the date shown in the tracking, what actually arrived was a 60 cm box full of plastic packaging an an A5 7 page booklet on guitar maintenance, never ordered it, don't want it and actually its not of any use. I rang the UK on two occasions for support and at one point I was asked how it should be resolved. I had to point out that was with BAX to resolve not me! How a company in 2024 considers it is OK to send that size of box with packaging and there is a booklet inside escapes me? All the info provided by BAX was misleading and or incorrect. When a customer gets an email stating "good news your item has been dispatched" I guess you would think the guitar ordered had been shipped, NO this actually means we have shipped an a5 booklet, no guitar and have no idea when we can send and oh and by the way we have taken payment on a product that we do not have and have no idea when we will be able to ship. I have still not got an explanation, at no point did BAX contact me to let me know there was a problem with the stock or delivery and I requested that someone ring me back to discuss, that got a blank NO. I suggest you take a look at the BAX web site before proceeding with anything, it look like their service promise is based on luck however when it goes wrong Huston you really do have a problem as the customer service in my experience is the worst I have ever had to endure. At the time of writing, no reply, no resolution, payment taken and no guitar in sight Don think that actually equates to a single star!

The item has not yet been delivered! You’ve had my money for over a week and I cannot yet even track the delivery. Very poor.

Unable to review product as still not delivered. Although this is my third purchase from Bax (nothing wrong with previous products other than a faulty guitar jack socket which I fixed myself), the delivery service from Parcel Force leaves a lot to be desired.

Shocking experience. My electric guitar has still not been delivered after ordering 10 days ago. Impossible to speak to on the phone, hours wasted. Various emails ignored. Avoid at all costs

Be very very careful ordering anything from Bax Music. All well until things go wrong when they supply you with defective goods & their response is to send intimidating responses such as "No fault found? If we are unable to find any fault with the product, we will also charge a consultation fee of £55 including VAT and excluding postage." Ordered a pedal I need for gigging but went wrong within 3 months and after returning it in October they've kept it ever since. When you ask where your gear is their CS response is basically to tell you to do one, even after you formally complain. Bax Music CS (customer service) behave as if the Consumer Rights Act 2015 doesnt apply to them. If they were run by musicians who cared about musicians then their wretched customer service might not be so bad. I will avoid at all costs in the future and a great example why to buy local instead of discount internet retailers.

Thieves. Send out broken equipment and then over a month later still waiting for a refund. Stay away from this cowboy outfit and buy from a reputable place like Andertons. Now raising a bank chargeback to get my refund back.

I only ordered 3 items and one item was missing. I have made numerous attempts over the last few days to contact customer services (via phone and email) and complain but have not been able to get any response - not even an acknowledgement of my complaint. They've charged me the full amount of the order but failed to deliver one of the items. The so-called 'customer services' is a joke - non-existent actually. My advice: don't use this company - get your music equipment elsewhere.

placed an order on the 29th of October. Received delivery Saturday(11th of November) at 12:31pm by Portuguese speaking driver. He brought the boxes inside my property and took the photo. Then i checked if the boxes have any damages and they all looked fine. When later that day I opened the boxes to assemble the piano support and of course the piano it self. We’ve opened the keyboard box last and were shocked to find there is no keyboard! The box was filled with water and juice bottles, some other rubbish! Also we find a message hand written on the piece of paper. The writing was not in english, but Portuguese. The google translator translated “sorry I’ve nothing to eat”. This is unbelievable and very frustrating! Customer service doesn’t reply to my emails. I have paid £1855 for the box filled with rubbish. Can’t add pictures

My experience with this shop is terrible . I bought a Halloween gravestone decoration ( although a music shop they also sell Halloween decorations ) the product arrived and one gravestone wasn’t working. - the lights should move and a ghost fly up, but it didn’t move. I asked for an exchange and to be fair they accepted it and arranged a postage label. This is where things went bad. It took several weeks for them to ship the replacement so it actually arrived after Halloween and worse …… the product was faulty again….. and exactly the same problem as the first one . I’ve contacted customer services several times about this over a few week and they simply ignore me and don’t reply. Terrible customer service. My advice is to shop elsewhere. I’m in yeh process of involving trading standards and citizens advice to try and get a refund.
