Don’t know where to start

First time out pedal snapped in half - very cheap, second time out tyre split and other pedal cracked and snapped - contacted and they asked for photos ? Anyway on to next ride all going well parked up for a coffee and setting off no power at all, battery fully charged - contacted by email as you can’t ring this firm now and had a rely following day - asking troubleshooting questions - tried all of those - took to Halfords and they checked leads and sensors ect - couldn’t find problem with any of the above so still not working - paid for this myself and no offer of anything from the seller - so we now go into more email dialogue on another day - what is the point of a warranty when you have to do everything yourself? Only got 1 star for the poor delivery driver who brought the heavy bike.

Great service!

I bought my lovely bike from this company and would be lost without it. I had an issue with
my bike after a few months, spoke to Adam,who knew exactly by my albeit very basic description of what was going wrong with my bike! He told me what had happened,( I'd inadvertently moved something) then explained clearly and patiently how to fix it and hey presto,it's perfect again! Adam even sent an email with all the information I needed! Great,friendly service,I'm very happy!

Hi Neville,

We did inform you about the delays which you did reply to accepting that we would get your battery to you as soon as they came in from our supplier. The best way to contact us about a problem in future is via the phone, live chat or by email as we can resolve things much faster. I have just tried to call you but couldn't get through so dropped you an email and will try again later.

Many Thanks,

Generation Electric

Order was straight forward with a welcome discount on top of sale price and delivery was very quick. Only downside was packaging was damaged, but that would be more to do with delivery company than Generation Electric, The E-bike is excellent and as described.

Love this bike

This was my first purchase of an ebike and it was easy to communicate with Generation Electric. Delivery was fast, and i love the bike 2.3 Avaris. An ebike is perfect for me as I'm currently unwell with PMR. This bike has given me my cycling life back. I can confidently go for longer cycles without worrying about any difficulties. The battery is long-lasting, and the bike is easy to operate. I highly recommend electric bikes for anyone, especially if ill or injured or trying to get back into cycling fitness.

Great customer service

We had a couple of problems. Firstly although, when we ordered the bike it said online it was in stock, we ended up waiting nearly 4 weeks for delivery which was a bit of a pain but the guys in customer service did their best to sort it. Also had a problem with a faulty charger which, again was sorted promptly by Adam. All in all a good service by Generation Electric.

Hi Thomas, I'm glad we got there in the end. Irish duty was a real hurdle!

No Allen key to adjust handlebars.

No Allen key to adjust handlebars.
No instructions or manual for bike, eventually found some on line.
No basket for bike.
Bike good though but only ridden it a couple of times due to the weather.
Paid extra for a larger life battery but not sure whether I got that or not as battery not marked what it is.

We're sorry to hear this! Our recommended contact is via phone, live chat or email if you need us to resolve an issue as we cannot get hold of you with an anonymous review. The bike manufacturer had changed their specification with the front basket and we hadn't been update. We can honour you a free basket if you contact us via info@generation-electric.com with your order number. To save paper we keep the manuals as an e-manual which is available on our website and product page - again contact us via phone, live chat or email if you cannot find it. The allen key was missed at the manufacturers end but again we can send you one out next day. Hope to hear from you soon as your issues can be solved very swiftly and easily! All the best, Generation Electric

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service - my order of 2 Juicy electric bikes arrived really quickly (they are fab bikes btw) - all packaged well and easy to assemble. The seat colour was not as per the photo of the order - when I asked about this they sent me 2 replacement saddles at no extra cost. A very generous gesture from a company that genuinely care about the customer experience. I am a very happy customer.

Hi Kasim - We are sorry to hear about the experience you've received regarding your return and refund however, this return/ refund was handled by yourself directly with our supplier and not through us hence the difficulties you've received. We weren't aware of the return nor did we have any correspondences highlighting the bike had been returned and a refund agreed with our supplier. If you'd come directly to us and allowed us to follow the returns process detailed on our website these issues could have been resolved a lot quicker.

Good experience and bike is good value for the price

Stephen was always helpful and would quickly reply to any emails I sent to him the bike was delivered within the ten working days and was a great purchase.

Excellent customer service and fast delivery of my purchased ebike. I had forgotten to add the free throttle at the time of purchase and had got in contact with them an even though the bike had been dispatched they agreed to send me the throttle.
