Simply The Best!

In my experience Electric Tobacconist is the best and most importantly quickest company out there, for example, placed an order on Sunday and received Monday morning!

Check your purchases.

I buy from ET on a regular basis and normally they are very good. On 8 October I purchased 2 Blu Pro Clearomisers ( ET4415671-502) in readiness for when needed. I went to use one of them today but it was faulty, once fitted to the battery the blue light just kept flickering, I tried the second one and it was OK. I didn't return the faulty one as I had it for more than a month. Just be cautious and check items as soon as you receive them.
RESPONSE TO ET's REPLY.
Thank you ET for your quick reply and the credit to my account. I didn't write the review to get anything as I had the Clearomiser for approx a month so the credit is much appreciated. Thanks

This company is absolutely amazing

This company is absolutely amazing. Their liquids are fabulous and whenever I have had a problem, which only amounts to be unable to open a bottle, they respond immediately and send out new bottles without question. I returned the bottles to them and within a working day had immediate replacement. Fantastic. I no longer need to look elsewhere for my pods or liquids . A huge thank you to the ET team!

Great service …

Been buying off Electric Tobacconist for a few months and they are the best company I’ve used! Buy and pay a small delivery charge and my order usually arrives the next day. Can’t fault them.

Great Seller.

Can't fault them.Delivery is always prompt and orders arrive well packaged.Tracking number provided.I once had one failed coil from a pack of 5 and they credited my ewallet with one fifth the cost which was good of them.Recommended.

Purchased in total 30 failing Riot disposable nicotine free bars that had a short expiry date and clearly faulty as i would say a maximum of 100-200 puffs from each device and 3 maybe 10 puffs each,i did finally complain as noticed the ones i purchased from Tesco had another year on expiry date and lasted at least 24hrs + and I would say got around 500-600 puffs.i was refunded for 10 ,but when i asked if they had any newer stock in of riot bars i was told no and would receive the same batch numbers i had previously.Why would they sell these as clearly faulty and i think very unfair to sell to anyone else.i used my credit to purchase another brand i just hope these are not old stock and fail very quickly.So all in all has not saved me any money buying from this company i would say cost me a lot more.Well I would expect that reply from you just odd that only my 2 orders did not work at all that well and then I ordered some new ones of a different brand with the refund and 2 out of date .I have informed you of this by email.Think in future I will purchase from a local store as obviously they have newer stock

Hi Ian, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and we’re sorry to hear you had this problem. I’ve checked your correspondence with our team and I can confirm your Riot Disposables were within their expiration date of June 2024. The date of manufacture doesn’t have an impact on the quality of the product. It appears you had an underperforming or faulty product and we usually require these products to be returned to us to investigate further. However, as you disposed of the products before contacting us we credited your e-wallet with the cost of the faulty disposables as a gesture of goodwill. Our team tested the same batch number/expiry date and the disposables are performing correctly. Best Regards - ET Team

NO REFUND TO BANK ACCOUNTS

I bought an iQOS from them with ORDER #:ET4407656-125; then, I found a new model. I sent them an email to them for return. First, it is very hard to make a return: second THEY DON'T MAKE A REFUND TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNTS BUT YOUR WEBSITE ACCOUNT. I WANT MY MONEY TO MY BANK ACCOUNT.

Hi Suphi, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. There appears to be some confusion as your return has not been received yet. When returning new/sealed products to us, we give customers three options: a refund, credit or an exchange. As you selected a refund (bank account) you will receive this once your return is processed. Kind Regards - ET Team
