Never fails to deliver

I have been using this company for years and they have never failed to deliver next day for FREE (depending on how much you spend I think) prices are fair and I have always found the customer service to be outstanding - highly recommend

Excellent service

Excellent service! I regularly order Terea from here and I couldn't be happier. The prices are great, and they always dispatch on the same day. Delivery is consistently next-day, which is impressive. On the rare occasion that an issue arises, their customer support is incredibly fast—I usually get a response within an hour and they resolve everything immediately. Highly recommended!

Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're sorry to hear about the issue you experienced. Please note that Friday, 3rd of April, was a bank holiday, and DPD does not operate on this day. The delivery service selected operates Monday to Friday only, which is why your order is scheduled for delivery on the next available working day, Tuesday, the 7th April. This estimated delivery date would have been displayed during checkout. Thank you for your understanding and patience. If you haven't already, we recommend signing up for our newsletter, where we share recommended last-order dates for bank holidays and more. Best Regards - ET Team

Thank you The Electric Tobacconist! Amazing service.

I used to buy my Blu pods from Blu. I got so fed up with all the hoops I had to jump through with Blu. Constantly cancelling my subscriptions because there system was not working. Missed orders that never arrived. I was exhausted from it, so decided to try another supplier. Well....The Electric Tobacconist came up in my search, so I though I would risk trying them. I recieved my order which I placed just before the 7pm deadline and was shocked to recieve it by 11am the next day! Amazing service, exactly how service should be. Thank you The Electric Tobacconist!

Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for providing the additional requested information. We're sorry to hear your order arrived later than expected. We can see the delivery service selected was the free Royal Mail Tracked 24 service, and in most cases, these orders arrive within 1 day. However, please note that this is not a next-day guaranteed delivery service and, in some cases, can take up to 7 working days (Mon-Sat) to arrive. We also offer DPD Next Day and Weekend delivery for an additional fee if you require guaranteed next-day delivery.
Update: We can see there has been an update to your tracking this morning (March 17th), and they aim to deliver your order today. As mentioned, in some rare cases, it can take up to 7 working days. Your order should arrive very soon. If you haven't received it by March 21st, please get in touch with us via the Help Desk. We hope this helps. Best Regards - ET Team

Amazing customer service, Tia is fantastic

I've been ordering from ET for a number of years, I always order the same liquid but this time it tasted different (like the supplier had put the wrong juice in the bottle, not ET's fault at all). I put in a ticket expecting to hear back in a few hours, within one minute I had an email from Tia and within half an hour of a couple of emails back and forth she arranged replacement liquids and a return form and envelope to be sent (which if previous orders are to go by I'll get tomorrow). Top notch company, top notch support. Thank you so much.

Hands down ET has the best customer service I have ever experienced from an online retailer.

I had a traumatising situation because of the DPD couriers. ET was very quick to respond to my emails, they were able to give me some store credit for the delay. After a few days of waiting for DPD to deliver it was obvious that they have misplaced my parcel somewhere in their depot. ET was able to quickly reship my order using Royal Mail, and I received it successfully the next day without any issues.

Thank you ET Team, you will keep having me as a customer as long as you sell Terea and keep the amazing Customer Service! 🙌

Bad customer service

Buying from them is ok until you contact customer service . I’ve emailed them twice now telling them about the faulty rechargeable batteries and no reply.
I’ve given them all my details and my order number and I’ve had no response from them. Very bad customer service and product

Faulty Product

Electronic tobaccionist have provided decent service on 3-4 occasions preeviously.
However on this occasion. They told me to check the fire button. I pressed what I thought was this but they Tia told me it was wrong then went onto describe the button I had pressed but did not tell me where the fire button was!!!!!!! The she told me to post the faulty items back to her so they can test them.
Unfortunately I have terminal cancer which does not enable me to get to a post office( and there are not many in this neck of the woods about 50 north of Inverness). Tia told me Royal Mail will collect the item but I have never heard of this and I do not see why I should be put to the expense of returning a faulty item.
I do not expect to be made to jump through HOOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They have now come back to me to say on this occasion they will replace the faulty items. I live in hope just 🤞🤞🤞

Hi Chris, thanks for your review. We're very sorry to hear you had an issue with your batteries. We've reviewed your correspondence and can confirm the correct procedure was followed. In your initial email, you mentioned you pressed the fire button, but the battery wasn't working. Tia explained that there appeared to be some confusion, as this device is buttonless/draw-activated only and requested a photo of the fire button. The provided image showed the USB charger LED light, which isn't a fire button but indicates the device's battery level. The batteries were out of warranty; however, we wanted to resolve this for you, so we offered a free returns service with a convenient collection option from your address. Once tested, we planned to send a replacement. As you were dissatisfied with this, our team were understanding and arranged for replacement batteries to be sent out as a goodwill gesture. We're pleased we were able to resolve this for you and appreciate your patience. Best Regards - ET Team
