I bought a MacBook with an amazing price paying with Klarna. When it arrived, I didn’t like the color and contacted the store to swap it, the store’s staff was very attentive and answered really quick with all clear informations to send it back. I loved the management with my case. After 2 days I sent it, I received a new Mac at my house with the color that I wanted. I appreciate the good service and after-sales support. It is definitely a store that I will buy from again, because they have great service in addition to good prices and many payment options.

Selling products they don’t have

Company sold too many preorders for a device and then didn’t inform customers for days after that there would be a 4 week wait after release date. It’s not hard to update the site with “not available for preorder” once they have sold their stock. Only got an automated response clearly don’t care about there customers.

Reply from KRCS

Good morning Jonny. Thanks for the feedback, and sorry for the disappointment. As soon as we became aware of number of devices that would be available to us at launch we updated customers within a few hours and updated messaging on our web site. As always there is huge demand for iPhone at launch and we do our best to be as transparent as we can. I hope you are able to get your new iPhone from KRCS or elsewhere as quickly as possible. Please email info@krcs.co.uk if you would like any further information on your order.

Great experience with KRCS

Bought a new macbook after having my last one for over 10 years, KRCS were the best choice. Not a company i'd heard of before but looked at them on Trustpilot and the reviews were good so i decided to buy from them. The experience has been great, fast delivery, great communication and only company i could find that offered 0% interest over 12 months. Price of macbook was really good too. Would definitely use again - thank you.

The only choice for NHS workers

Well, what can I say?
1. 10% discount as an NHS worker
2. 0% financing via Klarna
3. MacBook arrived before the estimated date
4. Spec as ordered

Highly and wholly recommended!

Currently, NHS workers get 0% discount on MacBooks when buying direct from Apple.

KRCS was my preferred Apple reseller

KRCS was my preferred Apple reseller, but I will never buy from them again.

I routinely avoid dealing with DHL’s business customers. However, I forgot to ask KRCS who they use for “Express Delivery” during our call. The worst part is the equipment that’s disappeared into DHL’s black hole can be bought from any number of suppliers. What an idiot!

I know I’m entitled to a refund, but really, why put yourself in that position?

KRCS, you can read my DHL review on Trustpilot, along with everyone else’s. Why use them? It must cost you a fortune. 3-stars reflects your choice of business partner and its impact on the customer experience.

UPDATE 18:00 20-8-24:
DHL tracking info now reads: “Sorry, but we haven’t been able to locate the delivery address from the information provided by the sender.” A rough translation is: Didn’t fancy delivering the parcel, so defaced the address label, returned it to the depot and blamed the customer (KRCS).

All round fantastic experience

Went into the Hull Princes Quay store and was taken through my options by a very helpful and patient gentleman called Tyrese.
The ordering system and delivery was flawless even when I contacted to make a last minute change.
Henry Woodcock in customer care helped with the changes and kept me updated through the day.
Would definitely be returning to KRCS for any other apple purchases. And I mustn't forget to mention the 5% discount on Ipad Air (10% discount for macbookpro) and a second year of Apple Warranty.

I placed my order over bank holiday weekend. I was kept updated about the progress. The device was delivered 2 working days after the bank holiday finished. The price was reasonable. My questions were answered in a timely manner. I can't fault my experience with KRCS.

Highly Recommend, good price and student deals

I've purchase highly specced MacBook M3 Pro 14" with high specification for my work/studies. I am a university student and their discount was really significant, couple hundreds pounds saved. The shipping was really prompt and they're also giving an extended 2nd warranty (1st year by Apple, 2nd by KRCS) on all purchases which is amazing.

I would highly recommend, especially when you're a student and can get hold of the amazing discount.
