Avoid at all costs Zero stars if I could. Worst customer service I have ever received! Bought a "refurbished" laptop that had fans the sounded like jet engines when just browsing with chrome. After first restart it corrupted windows and never booted again. I returned immediately. They received the return over two weeks ago now and still no refund. Customer service are worse than useless and can't tell me anything other than "it's waiting to be checked". If it takes this long then you need to hire more staff. Completely useless. Would never use them or any of their other companies under the buy it direct Ltd banner. Do yourself a favour and but from someone else and STAY AWAY from the useless company.

Appalling. Take your money but when it becomes faulty expect yo to return it with no guarantee you'll get a replacement, refund etc. Shocking

Ordered an electriQ induction hob. Wanted to keep old appliance so did not pay for removal service. They turned up one week earlier, took the old appliance (its a tenanted property) then, when I complained, spoke to several people on the phone to first say they would return the old appliance, then, that it could not be returned, no compensation and blamed my tenants for letting them take the old appliance! I said it was theft but they do not care. They said that they would have taken the old one anyway, so I said why ask people to pay for it then and where was this stated in the contract? No answer. Terrible company, do not recommend and will not use again.

What a BAD experience I have had this week with a customer service failure at the Buy It Direct Group. From supply chain failure, to sharing mis-information and a customer service team that has no real idea what is going on. It has been a lesson in how NOT to portray my own businesses and ensuring I keep the correct people in place to manage all aspects of my businesses effeciently.

My dishwasher stopped working after 18months and they refused to cover a repair a replacement saying it was over the warranty of 1 year. Even though 2 year is the minimum EU standard. Disgraceful behavior

Do not purchase from this company. An item 14 months old stopped working. They offer no help customer service was poor all they kept stating was that it was out of warranty. Could not even recommend a repair.

I have been trying to get a laptop delivered from this company for 2 months. They repeatedly said it was delivered which it was not and completely washed their hands of my case essentially blaming me and standing by their delivery service provider who did not deliver the laptop. I am over €450 out of pocket and have to take it to small claims now. Unbelievable

Put as many names on this company as you like and you'll still receive service like a massive bag of schwat. Buy from Amazon or Currys, these jokers are try it on dungaree wearing banjo players stuck in the 80s

Cant support dishwashers with parts after less than six years. Staff prevaricate and avoid helping using 'blame culture' techniques as excuses. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY

Statutory demand served prior to legal action for non payment of debt. Now waiting almost 2 months for refund have this launched legal proceedings. Totally disorganized company - too many staff performing similar jobs with lack of centralisation. Staff seem to have zero accountability or be aware of correct proceedings and their legal obligations. Inadequate computer systems result in poor stock control and lack of centralisation of client dossiers. Company is growing so fast and has such high staff turnover that staff are inadequately trained. If you have a problem it gets churned around interminably and spat out with zero resolution or accountability on behalf of staff. BEWARE!

Absolutely awful company. They do not honour guarantee’s which is breaking the law. My microwave broke within a year and despite exchanging 30 emails & 7 phone calls it’s still not resolved. It is not acceptable to say they are having problems contacting the manufacturer. This has been going on for weeks & totally unacceptable. Buyers beware, do not purchase anything from this company & instead make your purchase through a reputable retailer & safe yourself a lot of time, money & stress!

We told them we need a drone ASAP for delivery to the Ukrainian army.They said they had the one we want in stock and could deliver it in 2 days, "3 at the latest". It turned out they did not have it, did not even have a warehouse, just passed orders to another company. When they had our money, only then did they tell us it would take 2 weeks to arrive. So we cancelled. Refund will take 5 days. No apology. They lied, took our money and will keep it as long as they possibly can. Don't trust them.

Awful experience purchasing 2 beds. Order delievery date said 29th of November when I placed the order and the same on email i recieved. Rang early december and was told as I was from Ireland it would take 14 more days. Beds still didnt arrive. Got 1 & 1/2 beds on the 14th december after 2 more calls to ye and 3 phone calls to the delievery company. Ye handed me the number to the delievery company to find where my bed were myself. Now I have to get back onto the delievery company tomorrow to find the other half my bed which is currently missing.

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ I placed my order back in October for delivery mid November, it's now been a month from the initial delivery date, the items had not even been dispatched by that date. It's been over 3 weeks since the dispatch date and I have not received any items. I have rang and emailed several times and keep getting fobbed off, with empty promises that my order will arrive. Avoid this company at all costs, or else you will be down money, no product and a CS team that will promise to investigate the matter but couldn't be bothered to even respond. ⚠️⚠️⚠️AVOID AVOID AVOID ⚠️⚠️⚠️
