Written by the company

We specialize only in remote controls development, selling and repairs. Serving the whole of Europe since 2009. ....................................................................... Unusual atypical remotes are easy for us!! Seriously, we can create any remote control for every device, with the same functions and the same button names as original RC! .............................................................................. Thousands models of brand original remote controls in our stock. .................................................................................. We only want positive reviews and we will do everything for that. If you are not satisfied with our product, please give us a chance to solve the problem before giving us a bad rating. As manufacturers, unlike resellers, we can analyze the problem, reprogram the product, or recommend another model/type (exchange is free!). Please understand that the development and production of a compatible replacement part is much more demanding than an easy "buy-sell" business model. A replacement remote control must not only be of high quality but, most importantly, must be COMPATIBLE with the product. If your remote control is not working, it is usually because it is a wrong incomatible type, not because it is defective. ................................................................................... Do not hesitate to contact us anytime on orders@remote-control-world.eu. We answer within 24 hours. If you need an immediate answer ask our experienced technician (no chat bot) in the online chat on our website 9 a.m - 9 p.m. .............................................................................. Pls note: on Mondays we are more busy (we deal with inquiries from the weekend) and we are not able to answer emails within 24 hours as usual. It's better to ask on the online chat on Monday if you can't wait.

I searched and ordered a LG magic remote based on the S/N on my existing remote. The one i received, although it was announced on the RCW Homepage, was not a magic remote even though it looks excactly the same.
Update:
After having posted this review here on TrustPilot, RCW have contacted me and enquired about the remote I've recieved.
They have since reviewed the order, and acknowledged a mistake was made during dispatch and have shipped a correct replacement unit at no cost.
I've changed from my initial 2 star review to a 4 star.
Thank you for a very accommodating costumer service experience in the end.

Quick and good service. Very happy with that.

I needed a replacement remote control for my Modore 140 gas fireplace after my dog decided to chew on the original one. :-(
After some online searching, I came across this website.
I always check reviews before ordering online and the positive feedback gave me confidence to proceed.
I contacted customer support via the online chat with a few questions and received quick and helpful responses.
Ordering was quite easy, and after that, I immediately received a clear order confirmation and shipping information.

The remote was delivered within a few days and arrived neatly and securely packaged.

Pairing the remote didn’t work right away, but with the clear instructions provided through the chat, the issue was solved within five minutes.

Overall, a very positive experience: fast service, great support and excellent communication.
Very satisfied!

I ordered a remote control from the company for my 10-year-old 3D TV because the old one broke. This is the only place I found a replacement on the internet, but at first I was afraid to order it because I didn't believe that based on the picture and description I would get the same one as the original. I ordered it, received it today, and it is a perfect match for my previous remote magic remote control in every way, it is perfectly the same as the original! A big, big thank you to the company for it! (Brand new magic radio (RF) replacement remote control LG AN-MR500, AKB73975807, VOICE, MAGIC CONTROL (ANMR500, AKB73975807, VOICE, MAGIC CONTROL).

Remote for a samsung TV

The remote came wuickly and it was easy to find a suitable one.
The remote itself doesn’t work as well as the previous ones. Some of the buttons feel weird and spongy.
This is a second time I ordered from here.

Trustworthy

Philips TV remote control was exactly as presented on a website. It is compatible with my Philips TV.
The only reason not to give 5 stars is the fact that delivery time to Sweden is a bit longer in comparison with my other orders within the EU.

Best price and excellent service from RCW. Remote was dispatched promptly and arrived quickly and well-packed. I'm very pleased with it - smart-looking, metal-finished and illuminated - much better than the old plastic one and works perfectly.

I ordered a programmed TV remote. It took about a week for the programming until it was shipped out, which was a bit longer than I expected, but the result was worth the wait.

When I had a small issue getting it started, Ondřej from customer care provided quick and clear troubleshooting steps that solved it immediately. I’m happy with the service and the product.

Just a fantastic experience

fantastic from start to the remote arriving with me. I thought my old Cambridge Audio Amp was heading to the recycle centre, the remote was playing up and made using the amp very difficult. a replacement was not available from Cambridge audio then I spotted this on a google search, It was easy to select the remote I needed from the website, with a picture of the original unit to compare. I selected the UPS for delivery and didn't expect it to arrive on time at Christmas. It was actually due the day before! but a serious road traffic accident blocked access to my house for over three hours. Thinking my delivery would be left till after Christmas but the next day at 08:30 the remote was delivered. Works far better than the original, so I am very happy.
