Fantastic Service..

I ordered a USB to MIDI host converter at 1330hr Tuesday and received it Wednesday morning. I am really happy with the service and would recommend the company highly.
A very good customer experience.
Thanks!

Dishonest - avoid

Ordered 10 pack of tiny nuts and bolts for 90p, charged £2.20 shipping, credit card was charged immediately. I accepted this at the time of ordering, but after a week they still hadn’t arrived so I had to source others from Screwfix. Emailed to cancel my order and hey presto, the order status changed to shipped!

Failure to supply and respond

Having placed an order , with full payment, no goods were received. Status in my account continues to show processing 8 days later. They are un contactable by phone and do not reply to the web page sales enquiry form.

Poor support again

Buy from Arduino store, Sparkfun and Adafruit instead. The products might cost a bit more but the support is far better.

Great experience with Hobbytronics

Yesterday I called Hobbytronics from Cape Town with an inquiry for a product I was looking for. The phone was answered within one ring and I spoke to a technician who answered my question staright off and told me where the part was on their website. I ordered it after the call and it was here at 10am this morning. I did choose a quick courier service which I paid for. at a very fair price. I had other options for delivery but did not choose these.
I cant think why I should not rate this experience 5 stars. I compare this to another well known safari on-line store who lied to me on two occasions and took 3 weeks to deliver my goods. No comparison. Congratulations Hobbytronics. I will certainly be back.

Worst customare support EVER !

i've purchased a product that came with a faulty part, i've speent a lot of time to document the problem and the customer support was replaying with mails absolutely pointless, not even reading and looking at the information i've sent.
I'm very disappointed with the customare support.

Excellent service!

Just received my first order with HobbyTronics, everything went so well I've just placed another order! These guys offer amazingly fast service/delivery and have very competitive pricing (components ordered were cheaper than most of the places I could find in the UK!), I wouldn't hesitate to recommend HobbyTronics to friends/family.

Bad customer service.

I bought 3 stepper motors with 3 easydrivers, and when I tested them I found 2 motors and 2 easydrivers not working. I sent an email to the customer service and they told that they sent me qualitiy product and I damaged them. Sent them the 2 motors and the 2 ED to test them. I was hopping to get working ones back however they sent me the damaged products again. I really wont recomend this website to anyone. Because they wont replace the damaged products after you receive them. I will never buy from them anymore.

Great speedy service+++

Ordering and delivery was very swift, all items clearly label in separate bags, and when I identified an led display item was incorrect, informing them via their website comment section, this was acknowledged in less than 12 hours, with the correct item now posted but I could keep the incorrect item, no need to return.

Great customer service!
