It’s not arrived

I placed an order and received an email within a day stating my order had been dispatched. I gave it a couple of weeks and checked in again …. Yes it’s been dispatched to the courier and shouldn’t be long … chased again - 1 of the 2 items is out of stock !! No response re the other item !! How can it have been despatched if it was out of stock?? No lights and no refund . Order placed 23.4.26. Very disappointed - oddly I have had an email asking for feedback on my order - the same order which has not arrived? It gave 2 choices, a happy or sad face - I clicked on the sad face for obvious reasons and got an error message…. Click on happy and straight to trust pilot … 🤔
Perhaps just bad luck as trust pilot looked pretty positive for reviews, but whatever, disappointing…
Ps I would like my money back please.455794

Gorgeous light

Gorgeous light - when I got it working! Battery hadn’t charged in 48 hours, so removed it and charged on mains. Tah dah! Beautiful, colour changing hanging globe. Good value, too.
Would’ve given 5 stars, but it arrived in a battered box, already open, old bubble wrap and the aforementioned flat battery.

Excellent Solar Lights

Brilliant, solar lights to softly illuminate the steps in our garden. Love the dawn to dusk mode plus the choice to activate for 25 seconds to super bright if motion is detected. SPV Lights have a great range of products, excellent customer care experience and swift delivery.
Would 100% recommend!

Constant marketing email spamming and lights lasted 6 months.

Getting spammed with marketing emails every day from this lot despite unsubscribing many times and even writing to them 2 months ago exercising my GDPR right to be forgotten which they have ignored twice. I will escalate to the ICO but not sure if that will get me anywhere. I wish I’d never bought from them especially as the solar lights I bought stopped working after 6 months.

Fence lights

I have purchased lights from this company on a number of occasions, and have never been disappointed with either quality or price. On this occasion, there was an issue (delivery) but the company dealt with the problem quickly and effectively and I am a happy customer, delighted with my fence lights. Big shout out and a thank you to Zach!

Initially I raved about the 128 LED…

Initially I raved about the 128 LED fence solar lights but last week we had 1 explode at our front porch and actually charred the frame, this could have so easily have caught on fire. I didn’t think it was a fault with the light in the first instance, I genuinely thought somebody had attempted to set my house on fire!!!! Then after a friend commented could it be the solar light has exploded, this was when I dug deeper and found that that was actually the case, seeing several pictures of others this has happened too! I can’t bare to think if my grandchildren had been in the area or anybody for that matter! I have now taken down all 12 that I have around the outside of my house and garden & will never buy them again!!! Save your money… I await SPV’s response to my email.. Trading Standards need to know that these are a fire hazard
