While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Useless customer serivce department

Ordered a new limited addition engine from Hornby UK. Arrived broken with a buffer borken off. Spoke to customer services who then asked for pictures and asked us to return the engine and upon receipt of the borken engine would issue a replacement.
That was a week ago and still waiting on the replacement.
Have been chasing customer services via email to no avail. So now they have both the broken engine and my money.
I will now be issuing a formal complaint against the customer service person who obviously is not bothered about customer satisfaction and her promises.
Considering these items are on the expensive side you would think Hornby would have a better customer service relationship with their customers
