Good company to deal with. Website is OK, search function is next to useless. Needs engineers or technical people to categorise the website and make it usable.

I find your trade counter very useful & the staff very helpful. I find the fact you have discontinued the Paper electronics component catalogue some what disappointing. Its not easy to find some items using the search engine on the web site.

For me a bit slow from ordering the items to delivery. I will put that down to the fact it is a new account but I have been waiting for 2 packs of fuses now for 2 weeks. All items were in plenty of supply. The first pack (split consignment) arrived the first week ok, the second I am still waiting for. I am a bit spoilt as all other online companies I use deliver the next working day. I will continue using Rapid as I have for the last 10 years because the vast range of products you have is one of the best. Kind regards.

I like using Rapid, website is easy to use and navigates well, prices are good. only negative next day delivery would be nice but it usually arrives on the second day after placing the order. overall very pleased

Always prompt with orders. Just wish they might have more 'offers' opportunities - perhaps free postage for orders over £10.00 say, for a limited time? There is one 'competitor' currently offering free postage on all online orders. I'm sure Rapid might follow suit?

Easy ordering process, however, would have liked an estimate of delivery date.

was amazed at the size of parcel which was 10 time larger than the items themselves which are just what I wanted thanks

Would have been five stars, but since the takeover by the German firm the amount of stock on backorder is ridiculous. Sadly sometimes Rapid are no longer rapid... This is frustrating for me, even more so when ordering stuff for my school, so frustrating!

Dear Sirs, I was a little disappointed with the delivery from UK mail on my last purchase, I was not in to receive the delivery and it was left with a neighbour but no card left to say this was the case. and where it was left. I looked on the delivery tracking to see if there was any information, this showed a signers name, but was not a name of any of my near neighbours, so I sent an enquiry to UK Mail using their query service to enquire which house number it was left at, but received no reply in response. It was not until the next day that one of my neighbours brought the package round and wondered why I had not called to collect it on the day of delivery.

As usual, an excellent shopping experience from Rapid, only let down by the delivery experience by UKmail. For some reason (not explained) my parcel was delayed, so I stayed in all day for nothing! Had to arrange for delivery for another day so in all it took 3 days instead of the usual next day delivery.

A good service but it would be MUCH better if it was made clearer that alternative fittings were required with proper descriptions . The switch makers were extremely helpful and provided the part without charge
