AVOID- Selling counterfeit items!!

AVOID- Selling counterfeit items!!!
My husband bought me Dyson hair drier of this website as soon as it came it was obvious it’s not genuine Dyson (I have airwrap so was able to compare) logos missing, scratches, cheep material, wrong plug, Chinese writing on the cord etc. Company completely ignored my husband. He have send them comparison pictures with genuine drier (my neighbors) and they still insisted that their device was genuine.
Eventually we had to send it back to Dyson for an inspection and it came back as counterfeit item. Still waiting for company’s reply but AVOID at all costs.

Dear Paulina Bruzda,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the experience you had with your Dyson purchase and understand the frustration this caused. Since the item was a brand-new, factory-sealed unit, it was not opened or internally inspected by our team prior to dispatch to ensure you received it in its original state. This is an issue we have never encountered previously.

Upon receiving the report from Dyson, our team worked diligently to resolve the matter, issuing a full refund for both your order and the return postage costs. We have also raised this issue directly with our supplier for a thorough investigation. We truly value your business and tried our absolute best to provide a fair and swift resolution. We wish to serve you better in the future and are committed to maintaining your experience as a valued customer.

Kind Regards,

Got 80% of phones from mobile direct

Got 80% of my phones from this business and they have provided me with exactly what they offered, that is, a refurbed phone in prestige working ordered and looks that's approx 3 phones, the best has been the latest ios se 3rd generation, what a compact hard as nails phone, fast, 5g, utterly awesome, despite 90% of the parts being Samsung android which tells you all you need to no about Samsung.Is it outdated, who cares, the phone was 80£ for a phone that originally was over 400£ WHAT A DYNAMITE Back to mobile direct, yet another mancunian company offering high quality consumer products exactly how they advertise 😉👍😕😕👍👍👍👍💯

Quoted £86 online for sale, but after sending offered £22

Sellers, Watch out for heavy discount on online price once you send in phone. Then they try to negotiate before sending back. Complete waste of time.

Hi Rob,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.

You placed your trade-in on 14/02/2026, and the device (Apple iPhone 11) was subsequently shipped to us, after which our inspection process began. Once the inspection was completed, we shared the full report with you and provided the maximum valuation based on the actual condition of the device.

At the time of the order, the device (Apple iPhone 11) was selected as Excellent condition, which requires no scratches on the screen, sides, or back, and battery health above 80%. During our standard inspection, our technicians found heavy scratches on the screen, sides, and back, and the battery health was below 80%. Under our grading criteria, any device with battery health below 80% is automatically classified as Fair condition, and the revised offer reflected the appropriate maximum value for that grade.

Please note that, as per our policy, if a customer declines the revised offer, the device is returned. As soon as you rejected the revised offer and requested the return in order to reuse the device, the free return shipping process was initiated promptly.

We always aim to be transparent and provide photo evidence so customers can make informed decisions. We also encourage selecting the most accurate condition during the trade-in process to help avoid any inconvenience.

We genuinely appreciate all feedback — both positive and negative — as it helps us improve our service. If you would like us to review your case further, please contact our support team and we will be happy to assist.

Kind regards,
Mobile Direct Team
