Hi Mike, sorry you got the wrong sunglasses, unfortunately ESP changed the design and the ones we have pictured on our website are the old version, but we sent you the newer model. We are more than happy to take them back for a full refund or exchange and will cover any return postage costs. Glad you were happy with all the other aspects of our service and would like to thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. Tight lines, TF

Hi Albert, we are thrilled to hear that you took advantage of our 'Trade In, Trade Up' service and got rid of your unwanted bait boat and now have a shiny new set of Century rods to kick off the season with.

Top company.

I have just received my Shimano Tribal floater rod. It looks and feels brilliant. The price was way below the amount asked for on other websites. Add to that superb customer service and it is a pleasure to recommend Tackle fanatics to anyone looking for new tackle.
Dave.

Hi David, glad you like your Shimano Floater rod; although I feel it may be a bit wet, windy and cold to do any surface fishing at the moment! Thanks for your comments about our prices and customer service, we do our best to provide the best of both so our customers keep coming back for more in the future. We appreciate you dealing with us and taking the time to leave us feedback. Tight lines, Duncan

Hi, we appreciate you making a purchase with Tackle Fanatics. You called to raise an issue with one of the bulbs on one of your alarms; we offered to get this fixed, or replaced if necessary, but you wanted to send back the entire set of alarms for a full refund 5 months after you purchased them!? We are more than happy to sort any issues you have with your alarm bulb, but we can’t take back an entire set of Neville's on the strength of a small faulty component on one of the alarms. If you do want to resolve this issue please call 0208 949 3307 and we will be more than happy to help. Tight lines, Duncan

Hi Tony, thanks for dealing with Tackle Fanatics. Your feedback, recommendation and 5* rating is very much appreciated. We offer a flat rate next working day UPS service as standard to all our customers, but we are aware that some other shops offer free postage on certain sized orders, but deliver much slower - we have taken this on board and may be something we offer going forward. Thank you so much for using us, we hope to deal with you again soon. Tight lines, TF

I ordered the new Trakker oval wide bedchair system and cover from them. Their prices are very competitive, the staff's knowledge of the products is great and the items arrived next by 10am. Outstanding service and highly recommended.

I've used Tackle Fanatics on 2 …could do much better

I've used Tackle Fanatics on 2 occasions now
On both occasions I've received a phone call to explain
that part of my order isn't avalible
First time I accepted a alternative hemp mix
Recently wasn't offered an alternative
Accepted I was refunded
However the reason I ordered was because I required the item
I've not had this experience ordering fishing gear from any other supplier
The part of the order I did receive arrived in good time well packaged

Hi, I am so sorry we were short of an item from your order for the second time, this is very unusual. We have over 300,000 items of stock and on the odd occasion we can be short of a product, but this rarely happens so you have just been very unlucky to make two orders with missing items. Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused. It would be great if you could give us another chance to show you why we have one of the best Trustpilot ratings around. Tight lines, Duncan
