Inefficient or dishonest (or both)

I'm not sure if this company is inefficient or dishonest (or both). The strobes I ordered two months before my dive trip were not delivered in time, so I cancelled the order. They acknowledged that I was due a credit of £150 for the strobes, but kept giving excuses about why the money was not refunded to my credit card. After three months of excuses (yes, I was very patient wasn't I! OK, maybe stupid is a better description) I got my credit card company to deal with the problem. Thank goodness credit card companies will help with dreadful businesses such as this one.
EDIT - just seen they have gone bust - no doubt with a big wedge of clients' hard earned cash owing.

Worst company I’ve ever dealt with

Worst company I’ve ever dealt with. Took 6 weeks to receive a prioduct that was ordered and the product I finally received was faulty. Sent it back and has still not received a refund. Lied to in the phone and emails get ignored. Currently speaking to Trading Standards to get my money back. AVOID THIS COMPANY.

Ordered a BCD in June 2017 which was supposed to be a week's delivery. After constant email and promises that it was on order, it never materialised. I asked for a refund in Oct 2017 and was promised this was being processed. Several email's later and constant excuses why it had not been processed, i finally went down to the store to get a refund back onto my credit card. This being accepted, I thought that would be the end of it, after 4 weeks it is still not credited to my bank card and no longer answering phones.
Do not buy from these crooks!!!!!

Nobody responds the emails except for excuses or vague answers.

Scammed!!!! Disgusting!!!!

Went to Great Northen Dive Show the other weekend and bought some equipment from them, was a lady that served me. They didn’t have all I needed so I paid (stupidly) in cash and was told the items would be sent to me. I now see that they have gone into receivership. This is disgusting behaviour. How can they exhibit and take money when they must have know they were in this situation. This needs to be put out in the local press!!! Furious

Similar story to others

Similar story to others, there seems to be a pattern here....ordered items back in December only to be told that they would not be available in time for my dive trip. Cancelled the order in December and despite many many mails and calls I still have no refund. Seems they are not a reputable company.

Take money and don't supply goods

Wish I read these reviews before ordering. Taken my money promised goods will be in stock next week. Same story every week. Now I have asked for a refund and yet more and more lies.

Dear Mr Moore
Thank you for your review , however we do need to respond to the information as the information you have put is incorrect and can be proven as such.
We have not advised the goods will be in stock next week at all as the order was cancelled and refunded via Paypal. We have even copied you in to the Paypal emails from Paypal as we no longer use them as a service provider as we advised you.
We even advised you to open a dispute from your end to speed the investigation up and this was on 17th January where we copied you in to the Paypal evidence mail.
We advised you today that no dispute has still been raised by yourself and again you have seen the proof.
Paypal protect the buyer so no money would ever be lost but in this case we have advised you and sent the proof regarding it and yet still this review.
We are sorry the size corrogated hose you required was unavailable but aside from that we have done all that was requested.
In our email today we have advised further steps also, all this can be factually proven as well with dates and times.
Regards
DW

Similar experience to many others.

Similar experience. Ordered and confirmed.....waited waited waited.....over a month later i was told it is not in stock and on order and will be with me in another 6 weeks time. cancelled my order and asked for a full refund. it never came so lost my money with this company.
Would strongly advise divers place their orders with a reputable company that actually deliver the goods and on time....

I joined the Divers Warehouse family last March and have had nothing but great experiences. I have completed my Open Water SSI course and am working my way through 5 further specs.
Throughout all my training, the staff at DW have been amazing. They provide everything you need to complete the courses in the with the course price and the training is made fun and enjoyable. Everyone gets along like a family and newcomers (whether experienced divers or not) are welcomed with open arms.

** DO NOT USE ** I ordered some weights after they told me 2 weeks lead time on the 28th October. 2 month later and i still hadn't received them. I kept chasing on numerous occasions only to be told they should be delivered next week. I requested a refund nearly 2 weeks ago and still i haven't received my money. I spoke to them today and apparently they have passed this to accounts team.

When I did speak to them nobody seemed bothered, one member of staff seemed put out that I was complaining.

They have a lot to learn regarding customer service

Dear Mr Wilson
Thank you for your review of which we are again suprised especially regarding myself not being bothered when we spoke as that is just not true and I backed it with an email too. The reason you did not receive the refund is there was confusion as the items were due wc 29th January which was advised on the 17th Jan ( yesterday) and then later a call was made requesting a refund which has been sent through to accounts as the email at 17:00 on the 17th Confirmed.
Sorry you felt the way you did that was not my intention ,but I feel you have been kept up to date throughout
Regards
Billy

Pure retail amateurs

I ordered some small items from Divers Warehouse on 8/12/2017 as a small stocking filler for Xmas. By the 20/12/2017 they still had not arrived so I phoned them up to be told the items were never in stock and would arrive in around 6 weeks time! I verbally cancelled my order and the sales guy explained my credit card would be refunded within a few days. I also backed my verbally cancelled order up with an email explaining why I had cancelled my order.
On the 16/1/2018 I received my new credit statement and no credit had been issued. Stay away from this incompetent company at all costs as there is a much more professional outfit a few miles up the road called Robin Hood Watersports who make Divers Warehouse look like amateurs!
