Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 108 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Many customers are very satisfied with the repair service, highlighting its professionalism, speed, and efficiency. People appreciate the clear communication throughout the process, from initial diagnosis to the return of the repaired item, often noting that the costs were reasonable and sometimes even less than the initial quote. Reviewers are particularly happy with the ability to repair items that other companies deemed unfixable, saving them money compared to buying new products. However, some customers also noted issues with the company's e-systems and delays in receiving their products back. A few other people also felt that the diagnostic process was sometimes vague or that repairs were not fully effective, leading to items being returned in a similar state or with new issues. Some reviewers were not happy with unexpected additional charges or the length of time it took for repairs, especially when parts were unavailable or lost.

We encourage potential customers to consider both positive and negative reviews, as well as our responses, to get a fair picture of our service.                                                                                    If you genuinely need a repair and understand that we are here to help—not as a charity but as a professional service—you’ll find the process straightforward.

Excellent service, very professional!

Incredibly efficient and professional service! From the moment I requested a repair estimate for my hifi amplifier, the process was clear and simple to navigate. I paid a little extra for a Priority Repair and had my fully repaired amp back three days after sending it off. I received regular updates at every stage of the process, including a full quote for the actual cost of the work and a description of the repair. Questions can be asked via the live chat on the website and the Customer Portal is easy to use. I'll definitely be using this service again! Highly recommended!

Claimed to be a official repair partner…

Claimed to be a official repair partner of my phones manufacturer and quoted me a price for my repair, a seemingly simple screen repair. Once I sent it in they changed the quote, increasing it by 20%. What they learned by looking at my phone that they didn't already know that made them decide to increase the price by 20% I have no idea. I decided to pay, since they were official repair partners in the hope they'd get it done quickly and professionally. After I've paid they inform me the replacement screen has been ordered and will take a month to arrive and will only then be repaired. Again, I think I'm not going to be able to get it done any better or quicker anywhere else so sure I leave them to it. Over a month later I've still heard nothing so I email to find out when I will receive it. Turns out the manufacturer has stopped making replacement screens for my phone and they can't carry out their repair. Why did they take over a month to find this out? How did they order a part that was being manufactured? Why did I have to chase them to find this out? Why did they even need to charge me over £100 for a repair they were never going to be able to do? I have no idea. They promised me a full refund and to return my phone as soon as possible. Over a week later I'm still yet to receive my phone. Horrible company, incredibly unprofessional and dishonest.

EDIT: Having just received my phone back, I can't believe they've actually made it worse. What was a couple of cracks on a completely usable screen has turned to a completely shattered screen which is no longer usable. Avoid this company like the plague.

Dear Ameer,

Thank you for your feedback. Let’s clear the air and address your concerns.

When we initially quoted you, it was based on the assumption that your phone used the most common and latest version of the screen for that model. Upon inspection, it turned out your device uses an older version, which, as dictated by the manufacturer, is priced higher. Unfortunately, we don’t control the manufacturer’s pricing structure, but as an official repair partner, we’re obligated to follow it.

We understand that a month-long wait for a repair is frustrating, but the timeline depended entirely on the manufacturer’s supply chain. It’s worth noting that we ordered the part in good faith, only to later discover that production had ceased. Believe us, this isn’t ideal for us either—we’d much rather complete repairs swiftly than deal with complications like this.

Now, to address the refund and return of your phone: you were refunded in full, and your phone was returned to you as promised. We’ve operated for years across multiple countries with countless happy customers, and “dishonest” is not how we do business. What would have been dishonest is taking your money and keeping your device.

Lastly, it’s important to recognise that we’re not the manufacturer of your device or the ones setting these obstacles. Your frustration might be better directed at the manufacturer for making their parts scarce and costly, rather than at the service provider trying to help.

We’re here for repairs, not magic tricks—but we’re upfront, fair, and always acting in good faith.

Kind regards,
Customer Support Team

Good, quick service

Requested a quote online which was received quickly. Accepted the quote and received the postage label and arranged for Royal Mail to collect. Once the item was received and checked over by EP we got a revised quote for slightly less than the original. Item returned promptly and works great. Overall very happy with the service and the process.

Awful experience getting my amp fixed

I have had months of back and forth trying to get an amp I sent in fixed. I sent it to EP with a clear description of the fault and after paying for the repair, the amp arrived back only to immediately display the exact issue I sent it in for. I sent it back in to get fixed only to be told that this is now a separate repair and I would need to be charged an additional £130. When I pointed out that this is in effect charging me twice over for a single repair, EP responded by just saying that this doesn’t count at a warranty repair since the “new” fault (it’s not a new fault, it’s the fault I sent the amp in to get addressed) isn’t with what was previously worked on. This is a ridiculous point to make, of course it’s not to do with the initial work, you misdiagnosed the issue and then clearly had a sufficiently lax quality control process that you sent back an unfixed item thinking you’d fixed it.

In addition to all of that, after paying a new invoice the amp was mistakenly returned to me before more repairs had been carried out (losing another week or so in the process). While I was refunded for that invoice, EP seem to think this is the limit of their obligations to resolve the numerous issues displayed through this process. Furthermore, upon the amp’s eventual return to EP, they seem to have got it lost in their system for a few weeks until I chased them and asked for the status of the repair.

This has been the worst customer service experience I’ve ever had. After all the above, EP have shown no accountability or willingness to resolve this situation. I’m now being asked to pay another invoice for another repair, which I am forced to do since the time this has taken means that I have no other chance of having my amp fixed and returned before the festive break.

I have made a complaint but haven’t received any details on how it is being handled and addressed. As I’ve said in my ticket with you, if no meaningful progress is made on this then I will have to escalate this with EP’s trade association and waste more of my time pursuing that.

I am at my wits’ end with EP. I cannot recommend this company in good conscience and would advise anyone thinking about using them to think long and hard about it first.

PS I forgot to mention that the only other attempt EP made to resolve the issues above was to offer to waive postage on the return of the amp, which is quite frankly insulting inadequate.

Dear Daniel,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re truly sorry for the frustration caused by this process.

The initial repair successfully addressed the faulty Source Direct switch, which was unrelated to the later volume potentiometer issue. Unfortunately, our warranty covers only faults directly related to the original repair, which is why the second issue was chargeable.

The mistaken dispatch occurred due to our automated system, which efficiently processes paid invoices. We regret this error and refunded your previous invoice to address the inconvenience.

We understand your concerns and are reviewing our processes to improve communication and avoid similar situations. If there’s anything further we can assist with, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,
EP Customer Support

Check for parts BEFORE customer pays for carriage.

I was hoping to get a repair job on my tablet that has a cracked screen but otherwise fully functional. I provided full details of make and model, plus photo of damage, and received a quote that seemed reasonable, so I sent my device.
However, they told me they could not repair my device because they couldn't get the parts. That meant paying the cost of returning the device or letting them dispose of it.
I am very disappointed. Surely good practice would be to check they could get the parts beforehand, rather than make the customer waste time and money on carriage there and back!

Dear Gary,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and would like to provide some context regarding the situation.

While we strive to provide accurate quotes based on the details and images supplied, certain challenges can only become apparent upon receiving and inspecting the device. In this case, it appears that the manufacturer of your tablet may have used varying components during production, which is not uncommon in certain models. Unfortunately, this discrepancy can sometimes mean the necessary parts are unavailable despite our best efforts to source them.

We understand the frustration of incurring postage costs under these circumstances. To minimise inconvenience, we offer diagnostic services to confirm repairability before proceeding with repairs, but some factors remain beyond our control until the device is in-hand.

Your feedback is invaluable and will help us improve our processes. If there’s anything further we can do to address your concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.

Kind regards,
EP Customer Support

Simple, excellent service.

Simple, easy to follow process from requesting estimate right through to receiving the repaired item. A bonus was that the actual repair quote (£107) was less than the original estimate (£145), and all within a timescale of 14 days! Would certainly recommend and definitely use again if needed. Excellent service.

A really excellent service

A really excellent service. The company were great at keeping us informed via email about about where they were with the repair of our Denon Ceon CD player - 'We've received your item','it's undergoing assessment','this what we found and here's our estimate of repair', and so it went. We recieved the item back, it worked perfectly, was cleaned too, and looked like brand new again.

Nintendo switch repair…

Recently sent my son's Nintendo switch for a charging port repair, handled with care fixed new charging port and got the job done happy days, communication was great and repair was timely..pricing really transparent for the repair, a little more expensive than highstreet pricing but really trustworthy in getting the job done so no quarms (marginal). Only part I didn't see transparent was the delivery costs added for my return, but the free initial postage via royal mail to send parcel off does I suppose outweigh this. Overall really happy 😁

Very Impatient and Rude !!

We’ve had our system still not fixed under the guise of waiting for parts which has been over 3 weeks. When we called to find out more information, the “engineer” just cut the call in the middle of our genuine expression of the frustration being experienced!

Dear Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We genuinely value the opportunity to address your concerns.

We understand that waiting for parts can be frustrating, and we apologise for the inconvenience this delay has caused. As stated on our website, the availability of parts can sometimes extend to several weeks depending on the manufacturer and supplier, which is unfortunately beyond our control. We do, however, make every effort to expedite the process wherever possible.

Regarding your interaction with our team, we strive to maintain professionalism and courtesy in all communications. If there was any miscommunication or if the call ended abruptly, we regret the inconvenience caused and are looking into this matter to ensure a better experience in the future. For clarification, our customer support team handles such calls rather than the engineers, as they are dedicated to performing repairs.

Should you have further concerns or wish to discuss the matter in more detail, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we’re here to assist in any way we can.

Kind regards,
EP Customer Support

Fixed my PCB and my cooker hood works again!

I have a Cannon BHC 120 cooker hood which is probably 20 years old. The lights haven’t worked for maybe ten of those years. I looked at buying a new one and they don’t exist anymore, but the cheapest alternative would be £890 +. So I called in NAC Domestic Appliances who attended on time and diagnosed a faulty transformer and printed circuit board. They tried to find one but unsurprisingly they’re out of production. £96 for the visit. They said if I could find the parts they would come back and fit them for free. The engineer said it was a really high quality hood and you can’t get them anymore. So I searched the internet (and rang my brother - an engineer), who suggested the PCB could be repaired. Back to the internet and I found the transformer available on Ransom Spares (aptly named - they charged £98 but then it is an original). The real find was Electronic Partners. They promised they can repair PCB’s. I don’t know if they’re a clearance house for various electricians but heyho. They sent me a postage label and asked the details. Off it went, then they asked me for the control panel as well (for testing) and then diagnosed the problem and estimated £108. I got it back a week later. They’d replaced the triacs apparently. NAC re attended today and pieced it back together (as they said - for free). It now works as if it were new. Just need to give it a polish now!
