I had ordered lumia 950 white on 29th aug, few days later got an email saying that they did not had phone in stock and offered me a refund. Got refund after few days, I needed phone really quick as my phone was broken but decided to order from Gadget Monocle to save some money. By the time I received refund it was already a week, such a waste of time, will never order from them again. If they did not had white they could have offered to send me black one as they had listed black on the website. If they neither had white or black in stock then its very poor business practice of listing items on website. Order from this website at your own risk, you might be wasting your time. One of my friend ordered Lumia 950 from Lambda tek which is a google verified merchant, it was cheaper and got phone within two days

I ordered a gear 2 classic for 203.99 paid in full through PayPal 6 days later I get an email saying out of stock I check the site and its not out of stock it costs £17 more! The worst pat of it is I'm still waiting for my refund 4 days after they say it's out of stock and 10 days after I have paid! I paid through PayPal which every one knows tras actions take only 2 hrs! My advice is stay away! They don't full full the order then hold your money as long as possible! They only got 1 star as you need to give a star other wise I would not give a star at all!

Bought a Microsoft Lumia 950 . Due its non compablity to my car i asked for it to return it. They sent me a approval number ,i packed the phone and sent it back as their instructions and since then i have not heard from them despite many emails. There is no phone contact to speak to some one. Lost £350. Very poor service very dissapointed

I should've listened to my instincts before I placed my order. I had a feeling this site could be a scam and I'm starting to think I was right and really wish I would've read the all the reviews first! I placed an order just short of of £400 for a new phone. I sold my own phone to pay for a new one and now been told they are out if stock even though the site stated there were 15 available! Now im without a phone and no money to buy a new one until a refund is given and who knows how long that will take! Wouldn't recommend to anyone else!

Update - after waiting 5 days I've had a reply telling me my item that they took the money for 5 days ago is out of stock and I will be refunded, this place is so poor from my experience. If you want to save around £50 and wait for something that might not come and recieve minimum info, then maybe wait God knows how long for a refund then this is the place for you.

No idea what is going on, I paid for a Samsung gear s2 classic on Saturday morning, money taken straight away, got confirmation email and that's it so far, I've emailed 2 addresses now for an order status but no reply as of Tuesday night. My account says PAID and UNFULFILLED, no idea what to do from here other than wait and see.

I placed an order for a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 on the Thursday as on the website it stated that there was 8 in stock. I paid via PayPal and the money was taken straight away by Gadgetmonocle not when the item was despatched. I have received an email this morning on the following Tuesday to say the product is "in shortage" and my payment will be refunded as soon as possible.Judging from the reviews on this website this isn't a one off and might have a long wait IF I get my money back! I would DEFINATELY not recommend GadgetMonocle and will DEFINITELY not be using them again.

Avoid at all cost. Ordered with them for a second time when item was in stock. After 3 days I contacted them to check the progress, then they tell me item is out of stock! This happened for the 2nd on a different item. Highly unreliable. Awful customer experience.

Ordered phone on April 29th, and now I know that despite the website stating 8 in stock, they do not have it. Was told shipment as soon as possible on the 4th of May, then they said shipment on Monday the 9th, on the 9th they said that it would be shipped on the 10th. Today is 10th and nothing, no sign of the phone existing. I have requested a refund on order #8124. They've said they will do it as soon as possible....who knows when or if it will happen. They do reply to queries, but with completely useless answers, and they do not do what the say. As constructive feedback, a company should not take the money until product is effectively shipped, and there should be precise information provided. As soon as possible does not mean anything! And if you do not have something in stock, you must say it, and perhaps offer alternative models, or offer a refund immediately.

Hi Everyone, I ordered a Samsung galaxy A7 from this con site and received it in about 3 weeks. The phone is faulty as back key menu buttons are not lighting on, is getting very hot all time and also the charger. I've contact them on customer email for refund but no answer. Looks like they are based in : Address Room 801, Hanley House, 776-778 Nathan Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong. So no chance to any money back, however I've contacted already Trading Standards in this mater. The good reviews on this page are fake !!!!! Do not buy from this site!!!! BIG CON !!!!!!

They advertise items that they don't have after you place the order and don't offer you a refund. They write false positiive reviews on this site to, but it's a scam. Disgraceful company.

I placed an order for two LG G4 phones on Monday 2nd May 2016. They failed to acknowledge my order but still took payment from my account. They are based overseas. Having chased them several times by email, I received a reply stating that the phones are ready for dispatching on 5 May 2016. However, on the 6 May 2016 they sent me an email to confirm that the stock was unavailable. I have asked for a refund and waiting for their response. I was very sceptical to purchase from them, as they are an overseas company and they do not have any contact number. I only purchased from them having seen reviews on this site and question how much of the reviews are genuine, especially as they have a 5 rating! I WOULD AVOID THIS COMPANY
