BT equivalent items required

I sent them a link off an internet website and they provided the equivalent the very next day. A great service with speed being the essence.

Staff Not Up to Date With the World

I was told to amend my email address otherwise my order would not be met.
Why did they ask me to change my email address? Only because I created a custom email address (I have my own domain so can create as many email addresses as I want so that emails can be tracked; I do this with every company I deal with) that had their Company name in it.
The Company treated it as a security risk, and demanded I stop "using" their Company name, and change MY email address.
I refused.
So they refused my order.

Thank you for taking the trouble to post a review of your cancelled order and your comments have been noted with regret. BownetCMS receives and processes thousands of orders each year by email and online and we have not previously experienced any customer using our company name in their own contact details or reply-to email address. As such, we were concerned to explore the validity of the order and contacted you accordingly. The outcome was a disappointment to us but we will research the use and purpose of custom email addresses to bring ourselves and our security practices up to date where necessary.

Couldn't be better

Having known Steve and used Bownet since the 1990's at various companies I have worked for, I cannot fault them for service or products.

They provide value for money products which are all important these days. If something goes wrong they try and fix it immediately.

If I lived closer I would go and work with them, they are just a great set of guys.

Great friendly company

Bownet have been one of main suppliers for over 15 years and would recommend them to anyone within the industry. Great service, great knowledge and always willing to go that extra mile to help out if they can. Also good to have that personal relationship with the team.

Keep the good work going!

Bownet - Reliable and Trustworthy

Steve and Kim have long serviced our needs as a data cable installer. No order or query is ever too small. They have rewarded us with honesty, above and beyond customer service and support and above all - there is never a bad time to call or email. Customer service as it should be.
