System and programming lead

Purchased a 2nd hand unit, programming lead and software via Ebay. Speedy delivery and exactly as described. Emails responded to very promptly. Highly recommended.

Prompt Reliable Service

Very easy to contact and get advice. Prompt delivery.
The only thing that stopped the review being a 5 was the returns process. We sent the goods back very easily but had to chase the credit a few times - got it in the end but it was a tad lower than we thought we might get. It has not stopped me going back to them for further purchases.

Product was what we expected

We purchased this as a replacement for the existing one, works fine.
Only draw back was the lack of set up instructions, luckily we already new where the phone cables etc went bit it would have been difficult if we didnt.

Super service

After a problem with our telephone system we contacted The Telecom Shop for replacement hand sets. The service we received was first class with next day delivery and knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff that were able to sort out an unforeseen problem that occurred.
We would definitaly use this company again and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Thank you to all at Telecom Shop,
WG Child& Sons Ltd.

Power supply missing

If a power supply cord is not included in the package you should mention it on your site.
I am unable to use the phone I bought because there is no power supply cord, which apparently isn't necessary in some offices.
It just would have been nice to know that the cord was not included.
Thanks.

Hi Karen,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review and give us feedback. Upon investigation of your comments I can see that the Refurbished Cisco description states that a Power Supply isn't included. It is written under the bright red text at the bottom of the description. My apologies that this isn't clear enough, we will ensure this is made clearer when our website is re-designed imminently.
Please let me know if we can be of any help or if you still need a Power Supply.

Not bad, good comms, could be better.

Bought a refurbished Cisco voip phone, fine in itself but they failed to mention it requires PoE. The phone was very cheap, excellent vfm if your network is powered. The subsequent power supply was extremely expensive, more than the actual phone and as a result, I'd have been better off buying the voip service providers' own model, the final price difference was marginal.

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Your purchased phone was a Cisco 7940 with SIP Firmware for a refurbished price of £43.20 delivered. We advertise on the website "Power supply not included" but will be looking into making this larger incase it's not visible enough.

I am sorry you weren't happy with the prices, we try really hard to make sure everything priced to be competitive. I would like to reassure you that your Power Supply did not cost more than the Cisco 7940 SIP phone, but they are unfortunately an expensive item to sell at the moment at £22.50 each.

If we can be of any help, please let us know.

Really Good, Very Prompt

I ordered the Telephone's and within two days the phones had been delivered. I have used them before and the deliveries are always prompt.
