I bought the product 64831-24 kavel no. Did not come.

On 20.06.2022, I wrote to the customer service that the product will be delivered to me within 7 days and it still has not been sent. Customer service said they would contact the sender.

I was going to go on summer vacation 5 days ago.

I received an e-mail on 23.06.2022.
They sent the product and it will be delivered on 06.07.2022. But Nothing Track trace Track number.
So funny. I'm buying a 610 euro laptop, no shipping number

The product I will receive in 1 week will arrive after 1 month (if it comes)
I canceled my vacation because of you.

23.06.2022 I wrote to the customer representative Ms. Sanne.
I say give the sender's phone number, he says no.
I say send my money back, he says no.
Are you kidding?
If you do not send my product immediately, I will take your and the sender to court.

I am writing it again from here on 06-07-2022, when the product did not reach me, I sent the money ( €610 ) to TBAuctions Netherlands B.V.

I will file a claim for compensation.
The money for my plane ticket,
I'll ask for money for the days you've been waiting
and I will return the product.

I have a lawyer's insurance, the costs do not scare me.

There are hundreds of court decisions on search google.

Have a nice day.

Sorry for the bad english.

Beste Ali,

Wat vervelend te lezen dat je je kavel nog niet hebt mogen ontvangen van de verkoper.

Ik zie dat je 20-06 contact met ons opgenomen hebt hierover en dat wij, omdat de kavel wel in het verzendproces zit, deze niet konden annuleren.
We hebben hierover contact met de verkoper gehad en deze liet dezelfde dag aan ons nog weten dat er een vertraging op de levering zat wegens omstandigheden.

Hij zou jouw kavel zo snel mogelijk toezenden aan je. Dit is ook dezelfde dag nog vermeld aan je.

Met vriendelijke groet,
Ester

Incomplete and inaccurate description of lots. There is also a chance that you will not receive the bids or that they do not comply with their description. There would be several minuses ... Otherwise the experience is ok.

Dear Mihail,

We try to describe the lot descriptions as comprehensively as possible, but sometimes we have very little information available. All the information we have, we mention. Furthermore, you should receive every lot. If you have not received a lot, it is important that you contact us, so that we can contact the seller. Hope to see you soon at our upcoming auctions.

Kind regards,

If you have a problem and you like to…

If you have a problem and you like to contact them you will not. The chat is never available and there is no way to find an email address where to contact them or at least, they do not make easy for you to contact them.
I had a problem with a delivery and I`ve been trying to contact BVA about it, no way to find a way, you re just sent to the page with the most asked question but that`s it, no real help!
I`ve been lucky that the person who was selling the object contacted me and explained me why I did not receive yet my parcel otherwise I was still trying to understand what was going on. I am truly disappointed and I will never attend this site again.

Dear Jatinder,

What a pity you are not satisfied with BVA.

Of course, we advise everyone to do their own research into the price or value of the items on offer with us before bidding. This will ensure that you are not faced with any unpleasant surprises.

If the prices at the first bid are already far above the average shop prices, we would of course like to hear about it in the chat with the lot number. The chat can be reached on working days between 8.30 and 5 via the website.
Should you find the lots to be outside your price range, you can of course buy them from someone else.

Kind regards,
Ester

bad service

Bid/Won on two parcels. one parcel delivered and the other one still out after 9 days. on winning the agreement is you pay within 2 days and they deliver within 7 bus. days. It's unfair they blame it on how busy deliveries are at the moment, nonetheless agreement is agreement and 7 days is 7 days. also their customer service is bad. only chat and email. no working phone number. and chat is whenever they feel like replying.

Hi Do,

Dank je voor je beoordeling!
Niet fijn om te lezen dat je de livechat erg moeizaam vindt verlopen. We doen ons best om je zo snel mogelijk van informatie te voorzien en eventuele onderzoeken uit te voeren. Momenteel hebben wij een langere reactietermijn waardoor het kan zijn dat je langer dan gewend moet wachten op een terugkoppeling.

Dear Murat,

Thank you for your 4 star review!

For auctions that have a collection day, BVA Auctions cannot send your lot. You can only pick up your lot on the scheduled pickup day. Is it not possible to come by yourself? Ask someone else or use a transporter!

On our website you will find an overview of the transport companies we work with. If you find these carriers too expensive, you are of course free to find a cheaper one yourself.

Kind regards,

Broken lot and no Customer Service

I have spent the past two weeks trying to return a broken lot. I have not been contacted back for more than a week. I have tried emailing, I have tried the chat function and it does not work and I'm not getting anything back. There are no phone numbers to call and they do not respond to emails now I am stuck with two massive machines in my house that I cannot use and I cannot seem to return. This is ridiculous.

Dear Elysa,

It is not nice to read that you have not yet received any feedback from us about your complaint. I can imagine that you would like to receive more information.

At the moment we have a backlog which means that we now have a response time of 11 days. We are doing our best with the available staff to solve this as good and fast as possible for every bidder. My apologies for this.

I will follow up on your complaint via email and provide you with feedback.

Poor customer service

Although bva provide a good application for auction yet the customer service is very poor. There is no hotline number to explain for your situation. Every thing just by chat which response is very slow. I have a complain about an item that is not sent to me. And it already took around two weeks but still no real solution for it.. So yes it is very poor in term of customer service.

delivery issues

Delivery with Snelle Logistiek (delivery organised by BVA) was very bad - I got insulted by the delivery man for not picking up the phone within 1 minute when he came to my place/ he could also just have belled on the door of the house, rather than called. He added also that it would be better for me to pick up my item myself than to make him wait 2 minutes.

Dear Customer,

How unfortunate to read that you did not have a positive experience with a courier.
I would like to recommend you to file this complaint with the courier so they too can improve the service.

Dear,

Thank you for your message. How annoying that we have not been able to help you.
Since you have returned the lot I assume it has been scanned in within 7 days.

After these are in, we will create a credit for this.
