Items still not delivered as they were lost. Continually had the chase for updates, no proactive customer service. Claims process archaic and still waiting.
A disappointing and painful unresolved experience.

Great service BUT a little miffed that the price has dropped by nearly £100 in just over a week since my purchase! Boat and outboard are superb mind, so it’s a bittersweet review👍🏻

Ordered the sonik tek bank bivvy 2 man
Ordered the sonik tek bank bivvy 2 man. Went to set it up and had already been used. The peak pole was broken and had bird poo on bivvy. Sent emails to fishdeal with no replies. I would suggest buying from a UK supplier and stay clear of fishdeal as they are based in Netherlands.

Avoid
Avoid – Poor Customer Service and No Support With Returns
I would not have ordered from Fishdeal had I realised they were based in the Netherlands. The use of a .co.uk website gives the impression that you're dealing with a UK-based retailer, which influenced my decision to purchase.
I returned a bivvy following the instructions provided and have proof of postage and tracking throughout the process. The parcel reached Dutch customs but has now been stuck there for well over a month with no movement.
Despite repeatedly contacting Fishdeal, I have been fobbed off at every opportunity and received little to no meaningful assistance. Rather than helping investigate the issue with the carrier, customs, or their receiving depot, they have effectively left me to deal with the problem alone.
I have asked for clarification regarding the return address, customs documentation, and what will happen if the parcel is ultimately declared lost. These are reasonable questions, yet I have received no satisfactory answers and feel completely ignored.
As a customer, I fulfilled my obligations by returning the item correctly and retaining all the required evidence. I am still waiting for my refund and have now had to raise a dispute through Klarna due to the lack of support and communication.
The most frustrating part is not the customs delay itself, but Fishdeal's apparent unwillingness to take ownership of the issue or assist a customer who is simply trying to obtain a refund for a returned item.
Very disappointing experience.

Not a UK company. Long delivery time
Didn't realize the company was based in Netherlands. Delivery took ages. So much so I had to order from another company. The package did not arrive in time for my trip.

Faulty goods and terrible customer service …
I received a faulty rod pod and initially requested a replacement part. A photo and then a video was requested and it's now been over a week since I sent them. Apparently they are reviewing my return despite their own T&Cs state you can return within 50 without a reason. I've chased this several times and the response is always I'll pass it onto the returns team. Also to note delivery estimates are allot longer than advertised.

I recently purchased some tackle from Fishdeal and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The website was easy to navigate, with a great range of products at really competitive prices. My order arrived quickly and was well packaged, so everything was in perfect condition.
I also appreciate the regular deals and discounts, which make it even better value for money.
Overall, a smooth and hassle-free shopping experience from start to finish. I’ll definitely be ordering from Fishdeal again and would highly recommend them to anyone into fishing.
