We have used Expert for over 5years now after moving from another electrical supplier. The staff are very knowledgeable and couldn’t do more to help you especially Neil.

Would definitely recommend to others.
Had a nightmare situation needing an airconditioner for a birthday sleep over and Expert Electrical saved the day and could not have been more helpful!

Oliver was outstanding in helping me

Oliver was outstanding in helping me. I’m widowed and never have to remove a flush ceiling light unit to change the bulb before and didnt even know if the unit was removable to change the bulb or if the whole thing needed replacing. He sent me diagrams and explained it all to me over a few back and forth messages until I totally understood. I managed to do it really easily with his instructions and am super proud of myself. Huge thanks to his patience and the idiot-proof information he was able to provide me.

Excellent service and Delivery.

Excellent service and Delivery.

I've had an excellent experience with this company from start to finish. The ordering process was straightforward, the website was easy to navigate, and the range of electrical products available was impressive. Prices are very competitive
delivery was fast, well-packaged, and exactly as promised. The quality of the items received was excellent, and everything arrived in perfect condition.
What really stood out was the customer service. Communication was professional, friendly, and responsive throughout every process. Any questions I had were answered quickly and efficiently, giving me complete confidence in my purchase.
It's refreshing to deal with a company that genuinely values its customers. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable electrical supplies, whether for professional use or DIY projects. I will definitely be using them again in the future.

Excellent!

Excellent communication from Expertelectrical after ordering a new fan, super fast delivery too. This was even more impressive as it was bang smack in the middle of the horrid heatwave we had last week when everyone and their dogs were trying to order fans! Very reasonably priced too, unlike some other companies who were inflating their prices due to the heat!
I had an aftersales query, this too was responded to quickly and efficiently by their friendly team.
I have no hesitation in recommending Expertelectrical.

Excellent service

Excellent service, customer services were extremely helpful & prompt replying any questions I had.

Goods seem to be excellent quality for the price compared to many other companies selling the same items for double even tripper the price

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your review and I'm sorry to hear there has been a problem with your refund.

I've spoken to the team about this and I have found out that your parcel was mislabelled along with a parcel for another customer. I can see we collected from you last week and from the other customer. You've called today to chase where we are at with this and we've located and refunded today for you.

I can see you have placed multiple orders with ourselves over the years and have had a lot of dealings with us over the phone, and it looks like 99% of these have gone without any issues. I must admit I'm surprised at the review knowing we have offered a fantastic service over the years which has kept you coming back.

We refute the term 'scammers' as we have supplied correctly tens of thousands of pounds worth of orders to you over the years, and this review is down to a refund for one order which we was awaiting landing back with us. I believe when you've chased and spoke to your usual internal contact this morning he's just sorted it straight away, before you've left this review.

Kind regards,

Matt Smith
Operations Manager

Fast delivery in the heatwave!

Got me a portable air conditioner delivered in just over 24 hours. Price wasn’t inflated unlike many competing retailers, and customer service was very responsive around timelines and order tracking.

Would highly recommend.

Website said 74 of the item i wanted to order in stock. Place order, pay. 20 minutes later get a phone call to say out of stock. As several people have left similar comments either lie about stock to drove web traffic and generate other sales, or just have a really not fit for purpose website and ordering system. Either way won't use again and wouldnt reccomend to anyone.

2 star rather than one as at least the did contact me and refund.

The entire stock sold out of the weekend of this item due to the heatwave. The stock allocation didn't work correctly which cause an oversell during a busy period. We did offer customers an alternative, similar model immediately and suspended the listing.

Brilliant

Expert electrical offer a brilliant after sales service. They go above and beyond to ensure that their customer care is good. I will recommend the company where possible and will go nowhere else should I require their products.

DON'T BUY HERE

I had a very disappointing experience with Expert Electrical. We ordered specific bulbs, but the wrong ones were sent. When we contacted them to resolve the issue, instead of acknowledging the mistake, 'Oliver' suggested that we change our fittings to suit the incorrect bulbs — which is completely unreasonable.
They then offered for us to return the items, but said we would have to cover the return shipping costs ourselves. The cost of shipping was actually higher than the value of the bulbs, making the return option impractical.
Overall, poor customer service and lack of accountability. I would not recommend purchasing from them.

Poor stock control, incorrect items, poor attitude

First and last time I will be using them. Ordered busman fuses, shown in stock but not all of them delivered. The rest turned up few days later but were a different (inferior) brand and no good to me. if I wanted to buy cheap fuses I could but I choose decent ones. When I complained they said they were the same thing as tghe more expensive ones. hmmm

Reliable and competetive

I have been using this company for a few years now and have had nothing but a very good experience with them.

I only buy one product from them but do so regularly. With free delivery and very competitive pricing, they are a very valuable supplier and highly recommended.

I ordered a spotlight with a sensor

I ordered a spotlight with a sensor, clearly shown in the product description and even printed on the box. What I received was only a basic spotlight with NO sensor at all.
When I contacted the company, they told me I have to buy the sensor separately. This was never mentioned in the order, description, or packaging. If the sensor is not included, then don’t advertise it and don’t put it on the box. This is extremely misleading.
This feels like a bait-and-switch tactic: advertise a complete product for a good price, then send an incomplete one and ask for more money later. That is not honest business.
This has been a terrible experience. I completely regret buying from this company and I would strongly advise others to avoid them. You may find cheaper prices, but what’s the point if you don’t receive what you paid for?
Very disappointed. I will not buy from them again.

Hi Kieran,

Thanks for your review.

I've had a look into this and can see the item you ordered was showing as out of stock on the website '0 In Stock | More Available In Usually 7-10 days'.

This should have also have shown on your order confirmation.

I can see you have cancelled this 3 working days after placing your order. We have tried to make this as clear as possible on the website, however we'd welcome any feedback as to how we could have made this clearer.

If you do need anything else, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Kind regards,

Matt Smith

I recently purchased some fire-resistant downlights from Expert Electrical and I'm incredibly impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was top-notch. They kept me informed throughout the order process, ensuring I knew exactly when to expect delivery.

The pricing was incredibly competitive, and the quality of the downlights themselves is excellent. They're not only functional but also stylish and easy to install. If you're looking for reliable fire-resistant downlights at a great price, I highly recommend checking out Expert Electrical.

Thanks again J

Failed to Meet Promised Delivery

I placed and order with DownlightsDirect and correspondence from both DownlightsDirect and Expert Electrical Supplies Limited.

Before I placed the order I called to check if all the items were in stock. I was advised that there was over 100 lights in stock and enough white bezels to fulfil my order. The black bezels were on order and DownlightsDirect / Expert Electrical Supplies Limited advised they checked with the manufacturer who held stock and they would follow within a few days.

My order was placed based on the above advice, I also paid extra for DPD NEXT DAY GUARANTEED delivery, so that I could fit the lights immediately.

Imagine my surprise to receive only three lights. What was the point of paying extra for next day delivery.

It appears that I was either deliberately misled, the staff were incompetent.

A very disappointing experience.

Be aware that they also trade as Expert Electrical Supplies Limited appears to trade as DownlightDirect

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your review and apologies for the issues with the delivery of your order.

As discussed on the phone on Saturday and Monday, your order seems to have uncovered a glitch when it comes to stock held in multiple depots. As you can see from the website and your order confirmation, some of the items you ordered were held in both our main Rochdale depot and the rest in our West Yorkshire depot. If you would have selected 'Next Day Delivery' on the site at the time of ordering, this would have been shipped in full from our West Yorkshire depot and there would have been no issues. As you chose 'Part Ship Stocked Items' at the point of purchase, the order was only actioned from our main Rochdale Depot and the remaining stock was transferred across to us to ship from here when it landed. I explained that this was the first time we had seen this happen, and this was passed onto our web designer immediately to put a fix in place.

As per our call on Saturday, I then followed this up first thing on Monday with the other depot and called you to let you know exactly what was happeneing. Also we have refunded the £3+VAT delivery charge as discussed, this should hit your account any day now.

Once again, apologies for any inconvenience caused here, it did uncover a glitch in our multi depot system.

If you do need anything else, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Kind regards,

Matt Smith
