I ordered the specified replacement for my malfunctioning (9 years old) Samsung TV remote and was sent a different remote which had a much shorter range and was rather slow. So I ordered again and this time was sent the specified replacement which works perfectly. (I didn't bother to send back the incorrect remote.)

Very poor experience!!

Well despite any positive feedback you can read here,this is up to date on 2nd December 2022.
Their card payment on line page does not work , also called their helpline number 0871 268 2656 and it’s disconnected! Just brilliant way to run a company, no explanation message on website, nothing hopeless company, avoid, avoid!

Royal Mail lost my parcel

Unfortunately Royal Mail lost my remote control somewhere within their organisation, even more annoying the remote was the last one of its kind that Foxtek had in store. As they didn’t have a suitable alternative Foxtek quickly refunded the cost of the remote. Their customer services were very prompt and helpful throughout.

Great find!

So glad I found this website! Upgraded our main TV but kept the previous one that we've had a few years (Bush smart TV bought cheap when moving house), remote was broken for at least a year but were making do with controlling via PlayStation as don't really use aerial/live TV anyway. Now that TV is moved to another room so no way to control without the remote, tried 'universal' one from argos which did not work, bit of research suggested it may be as the remote we bought was an older model but still being sold and may not be compatible with smart TVs. It was pure chance I saw this website when looking for smart-compatible remotes and also found out Bush and Hitachi are essentially now one and the same (owned by argos), searching replacement Hitachi remote gave more results and more importantly the specific one needed. Much easier than setting up a universal one, just put in the batteries and worked immediately - great to finally have a working one again, reasonably priced and arrived in about 3/4 days right before Christmas which I wasn't expecting. Would buy from here again if I needed and would recommend to others :)
