“On reading these reviews although with postage added still cheaper but would not take a chance of them having my money.”

“Very poor. Ordered an item for 24 hour tracked delivery. It’s now 12 days later and still not arrived. No follow up from the company or apology. The item won’t arrive in time for Christmas now so I have had to order from, somewhere else. Emailed them and now they are on Christmas shut down and can’t respond until January, thanks guys!”

“I placed an order for a Hyundai angle grinder, and still had not yet received this three weeks later. First I had an email saying that the courier had a problem with the address, but they had advised them that the address is correct. So this hopefully the order would arrive with me soon. But it didn't. The website has continually offered quick delivery, but I didn't get what I paid for. After three weeks I could wait no longer. I therefore asked for a refund of my money, without any delay. An email said they had actioned the refund. This came OK, and was the only thing that Power Tools Direct did right. An email stated they were sorry, that the replacement they had sent, had also not arrived. I never once got any evidence, that my order had been despatched. Trustpilot state that they have detected that this company may be asking for reviews in a way that they don't support. And that this can lead to bias and compromise the reliability of reviews.”

“My purchase was small, just 3 pots of paint for my craft, which came to £9.90. However to delivery was £7.95 rather a lot I felt for such a small package. But the delivery date went by, as did the following day, so I emailed twice to be told they hadn't sent it and would be leaving the next day. Which it did. My first email was a request of a refund for P&P. Then when I got no reply I asked for a refund of goods and P&P. £17.95. That is when they decided to send it. I did get my P&P refunded immediately, but my overall impression is that my purchase was so small that it didn't matter. If I had purchased a large expensive tool it would have been sent on time. My moto, I won't use them again, next time my purchase could be large and expensive, but not from them”

“Truly deceitful website, promised in stock and delivery for items which were not in stock. Refused to cancel order even when overdue and not available. No one reading emails sent to sales department. Now lumbered with unwanted part of an order and no refund made for missing items. Do not use this company.”

“I ordered 3 small items totalling £9.90. Pots of craft paint. They charged me £7.95 express delivery, which was the only option? Goods were promised 2 days ago. Still no sign of my order. I will never use them again. I will also spread the word Applying for a full refund”

“I ordered a Clarke 1100 Jump Start device which we needed urgently & Power Tools Direct offered next day delivery via FedEx. The order was placed at 09:11am on Wed the 20th Nov & I paid £8.95 for the FedEx Express Parcel service but the item wasn't delivered the next day, nor the next day. It wasn't until Sat the 23rd Nov that I received an email with the FedEx tracking number so I send a cancellation request as we'd already bought the same item from another supplier. On Mon the 25th Nov I received an email to say that the item had already been shipped but when I checked the tracking number FedEx showed it as not yet received so I contacted FedEx & told them I wouldn't accept the parcel. Today, Tues the 3rd Dec I received a refund for the item but not a refund for the FedEx Express delivery charge so I've been charged for a delivery that never took place. I'm a director & company secretary & the company will not do business with Power Tools Direct”

“Rip off company. Purchased two items showing in stock they send me one and an email to refund the second. But they charge me £5.99 for postage, no way would I order one item very small item for £5.99 postage. After contact they claimed they would refund the postage, had to wait for that to happen. I had to place a second order pay postage to get the missing item elsewhere, so I waited longer for my items and this delayed the job My items were only small, fit in a small jiffy bag and delivered by Royal mail 48. What makes it worse is the item they did not send was still online to buy and showing in stock. Disgrace cost me time and money.”

“Ordered two items and paid £5.99 for postage, I thought postage was a little expensive when it arrived by Royal Mail 48 which was not £5.99, but to make matters worse they sent one item and an email to say the second was out of stock, it was still showing in stock after this happened so they are selling items they know are out of stock. No way would I of ordered the one item with a postage charge of £5.99, they did say they would refund me the postage but that did not happen, they only refunded the missing item. I have now had to place an order elsewhere to get the second item and pay for postage, so this company has cost me money and wasted my time. I would not recommend ordering from them .”

“A review was invited so here it is. Express delivery - over £10 took 8 days - much too long. Silicone was old and no nozzles supplied as per the illustration. No answer on phone. Have send an email requesting rectification and will update review if matter is satisfactorily resolved”

“Ordered 3 items and paid for express delivery. Sent emails. 7 days later package out for delivery. All items arrived damaged as packaging consisted of winding black bin liner roll around them. Sharp edges had perforated packaging. All handles had perforated packaging and were damaged. Contacted them. Asked to supply photos of damage to packaging, goods and how items were packed in box. Bit difficult when there is no box!! Did I want a refund or replacement. Requested replacement. Received returns label but then I have to package items safely and arrange a day to wait for the courier to collect. Received an email saying that I have received a refund. Contacted again to find out why no replacement as items in stock. Returns department did not realise I wanted replacements. Easier to press a few keys on a computer than fulfill and repackage my order??? They say they are sorry about what happened and if I still want the goods I can reorder on the website!!! DO NOT THINK SO!”
