Great product and great customer service

We have bought 2 of your electric folding bikes. One for the uk and the other stays at our campsite in France.
We have found the bikes to be very reliable, have an excellent range and easily foldable to fit in the back of a car.
Recently we snapped one of the peddles and contacted the company. They offered to post a replacement straight away. No question of out of guarantee, how did it snap or send proof of purchase.. just sorry to hear this and a replacement will be sent immediately!
Fantastic customer service. This says a lot for the company and will continue to buy their excellent products

After more than a year

After more than a year, my bike had been working perfectly. Recently I noticed that the sensor had randomly stopped working. When I checked it, I saw that it was damaged.

I tried to find the sensor on the shop’s website but couldn’t locate it, so I contacted support. Tom replied quickly—great service! Without any questions, she simply asked for my shipping address and sent a replacement.

Thank you again, Tom! Great service.

Perfect customer service

We had lost a small part from our child's Zinc scooter. I looked on the website for a replacement, but couldn't find it on there. So I emailed to see if they had the part to order. They offered to send the replacement part for free.
Communication was great and the part arrived very quickly. I have given 5 stars for this review. But if I could give more, I would. I very highly rate their customer service.

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service. My son’s scooter is nearly 2 years old and a nut holding the wheel on came off and was lost. Customer services responded quickly and sent a replacement nut via next day courier. Cannot fault them.

Outstanding Customer Service.

Outstanding Customer Service.
Had a small technical issue with a scooter and the support team responded almost instantly.
Turns out it wasn’t a technical issue-it was me who didn’t know how to work the trike for my grandson!
Would definitely buy from Zinc again.

Fab customer service

I ordered 2 suitcases from Zinc. 1 was perfect, however the other was faulty. I contacted them via email over the Xmas period. They dealt with the matter swiftly. I was advised to return the item free of charge and within a week, they sent out another suitcase. Friendly customer service and I would definitely recommend!

Fantastic customer service

Fantastic customer service! Had an issue with my Son’s scooter and Zinc arranged for it to be collected, looked at, repaired and sent back to me in no time at all! Communication was great and I would 100% recommend buying from this company.

Brilliant customer services …

I placed an order which was very quick and easy to navigate the site.
After placing I found out a relative had ordered the same item and received it.
I immediately emailed and explained my dilemma to zincsports.
I had an acknowledgement and then I had a message from Shaun confirming he had stopped my order and refunded my money. Brilliant customer services. Prompt. Understanding and professional. Would recommend to anyone
I fully appreciated that there was no drama my request was dealt with very quickly and stress free.

Great customer service

Great customer service. I had a fault with my scooter which I didn't buy direct from Zinc. They talked me through the potential faults, even sending me a replacement throttle for free to check the issue. All fixed now. Great to be able to deal with someone in the UK!
