Impossible to return with this company. Stay away.

My wife, Nayade, asked me for a game console for my birthday.
The games would freeze, the microphone wouldn't pick up the voice in games like Nintendog.
My wife requested a return because I don't want a console like this, and we haven't received a response. After almost a week, they've offered a partial refund?
What don't you understand about me not wanting a console like this? A birthday present has to be something you like, and I don't like this one. It's just sitting in its box, unused, absolutely nothing, zero.
The company operates by not responding; they are playing at being a ghost that offers no solutions.
At this point, we will end up requesting a chargeback from the bank.
We don't want to do this because we really want to return the console output, but if we don't get any response, that's what we'll do.
Terrible customer service.

Disappointed with my experience so far

Disappointed with my experience so far. Anbernic R476H delivered promptly but does not work at all. No response from support despite a claim they would respond in 24 hours.

I had an issue with delivery

I had an issue with delivery. It was sorted quickly and a replacement was sent. Communication was good all of the way though. Highly recommended

took a long time to refund

took a long time to refund, bought in january, returned a week after delivery because it wasn't straight forward to just return.

it's now the middle of march and i still have no refund

email support at first pushed for me not to return the item and instead offered me another product or to keep it and get a partial refund.

said no. sent it back in january via royal mail.

they sent me a rude email saying i wasn't being patient when i checked why i hadn't had a refund, 5 weeks after sending back

i think i've been anything except impatient in my opinion.

not worth your time - product was fine, but i found it for cheaper - i should have just accepted the partial refund and the chance to keep it and just sold it on ebay, I just never expected this hassle.

Great experience

I accidentally made an incorrect order but the team were so helpful in getting it changed without me having to cancel and ensuring the right product was sent to me. Delivery was very quick and the quality of the product is excellent. Very pleased with my experience thank you.

I ordered some Lofree products in two separate orders. Very reasonable prices after doing comparisons from other suppliers.
The first order took two days and the second took a day. Lightning quick delivery times.
On the strength of my two orders I would definitely recommend WhatGeek.
Bunch of legends. 👍🏼

Excellent service

I was genuinely impressed with how responsive and willing to help, alongside how reliable their delivery services have been, they're a force to be reckoned with.

Great price and fast delivery

Exactly what I was searching for at a better price beating others including the big online retailer I order most things from. My keyboard is in the right format and layout.
