Very bad service,

unclear delivery status.

All the mess AFTER money paid.

So, I planned to buy PC for vacation, now vacation finished and NO PC...

We have made an order and after 2 weeks they didn't sent the goods. We called we sent emails and they told me that the goods will be shipped by tomorrow. this was Last Monday. Still nothing. Customer care needs to be more efficient.

The worst customer support

The worst customer support. They have sent us an order confirmation for VAT-included price, which we promptly paid and the invoices we received was VAT-excluded. So they pocketed the VAT amount without A SINGLE reply to our emails. We will be escalating the issue with our bank to get the money back. DO NOT purchase from them if you value your nerves and money.

Incorrect info about shipping

I placed my order on 10/07/2024, and it should have been delivered no later than 19/07/2024. However, the shipping company (UPS) still hasn't received the goods.

UPS status is "Label created: UPS doesn’t have possession of the parcel yet. Estimated delivery date will be available as soon as we get the parcel. "

I haven't received any responses to my emails. The delivery deadlines are part of the public offer, and customers should be informed of any delays beforehand. This is awful service.

Hello, the ordered item was not immediately available, as it still had to arrive from our distributor. Thus, the item could not go into shipping before the 17th of July. According to the system, this was shown in the webshop.
The shipment is going from Germany to an address in Cyprus. The order was handed over to UPS on the 19th of July, and is estimated to arrive today. Regards, Marc

Shipping issue?

I placed a MacBook order on July 6th. I got the confirmation email and tracking number on July 8th saying it left the warehouse, but the tracking info hasn't changed since then. It still says "Label created - UPS doesn’t have possession of the parcel yet."

I talked to UPS, and they told me the order is still with the sender. Can you give me an update on what's going on and when it might be shipped?

WARNING, Incorrect statement of Parcel shipped!

Made an expensive order 12th of July. Received an email that it got sent from their warehouse and picked up by the transport on 15th of July with and Track and Trace for UPS.

But the T&T info only states, Label Created, and UPS has not received the parcel yet.

Today 18-07-24, I just had a call with their support. He says he will get back to me by email when he get more information from the logistic team.

I also emailed UPS and awaiting their statement.
Update: UPS states that the package have not been picked up yet.

Be careful! I did my due diligence (obviously not good enough) in checking reviews on Reddit and in here. I did not see all these recent bad reviews when I sorted for latest, and I just now discovered them with many bad reviews with the exact same experience as mine.

Something is wrong and incorrect when sorting for latest reviews in Trustpilot which is misleading!
Update: I realize they sort out latest reviews so it is region specific, because I was on dk.trustpilot...

Computeruniverse is a sub brand of Cyberport and they also have reviews that are similar to here...

I will give this company the benefits of the doubt for this week but will take immediate actions afterward on week 31.

Will update the rate of experience based on end result, or if I will even receive the product..

Update 1: Bank is already notified and ready in case we are to make a dispute if not already. More actions will follow locally for now.
Update 2, 22-07: Email sent yet again for answers as they have not yet replied by email.
Update 3, 24-07: Received an email yesterday about my complaints/refund request. An email states that they have issued a credit note attached in pdf. I still do not trust their statement before I see in the transaction. I will finalize my experience in this review when all is done!
Update 4: Money refunded.

What an unfortunate experience. If you value your money/time I would reconsider this web-shop. If you have the nerves and want to risk it, then try your luck. Good luck.

Computer

I ordered components to build a desktop pc. The company emailed to let me know about any delays and other information concerning my order. My order took a month and everything I ordered arrived.
Be patient it will arrive.

B2B, no customer support, 1 month delay.

I am happy to change the review if finally someone talks with me.

My order for close to 10k eur for over 30 items was made in 16th of May 2024. I was aware that it might be up to month to get all of my items(I expected that to happen based on reviews and natural delays). I called them 2 weeks after the order, they said via phone that all is in stock and reserved - just delayed due to VAT ID being verified, which takes maximum of 2 weeks. Alright, great. Now it's been over month, private phone support redirects me to business department as they have no information of the issue. Business department have NOT been answering for 2 days, I been on HOLD for total of 5 and half hours without nobody answering during business hours. If I could add image, I would!!! E-mails is lost cause, have not had answer for 2 weeks since my last email I sent them.

Also, my price was automatically increased after purchase by 200 eur. I have initial email with all the prices and now can see my order in their panel with increased price - might be due to VAT differences in EU, but who knows, no information was given to me.

Nothing is still shipped and no information given to me and this is close to 10k eur order.

Order from: 16.05.2024
Order number: 2600122913

Awful delays in shipment and lies about shipment status

I am extremely disappointed with the service from Computeruniverse. I placed an order on May 31, and while Computeruniverse claims they shipped the goods on June 8, UPS still states that only a label has been created and the shipment has not arrived at their office. I even asked UPS to double-check if they missed it, but no, the order is still with Computeruniverse. It’s now June 14, and I have been waiting for two weeks with no resolution in sight. I am leaving the country in two weeks and cannot afford to wait any longer. The lack of coordination and communication between Computeruniverse and UPS is unacceptable. I expected better service and prompt delivery, but here I am, waiting for the parcel to travel through Germany for a week! I contacted them twice via email, and no answers were given. Avoid and save yourself the frustration.
Order number is 2600132592
UPD: I cannot believe it. I now received automatic email that they accepted my return. I have never asked for return. I do not understand why this is happening and there is no explanation from the seller. I want to just go back in time and never order from them.

No warranty support and ignoring

The gaming PC after 9 months started freezing and restarting. The test showed CPU temperature over 90 degrees. I have a 2-year warranty, but they don't respond to my emails. I tried to call, and after an 8-minute wait, a woman answered and told me in perfect English, "I am sorry, we don't speak English, kindly send an email."

I will never purchase anything from them, as soon they get your money they don't care about you.

Ordered last Thursday May 23rd

Ordered last Thursday May 23rd. Item said in stock and ready for immediate shipping (according to their own terms, it means it is ready to be shipped and delivered within 4 days, their terms say that, I didnt make that up). Today is May 30th, not only I didnt receive a package but I didnt get a reply from support either. If I knew they are scamming I'd never order.

For what its worth my order number.

Very poor and slow customer assistance on order

I ordered and paid a TV device on May 14th 2024 (order 2600122147). I get an email on May 15th announcing the departure of the parcel by the Hellmann parcel service with a tracking reference. Since May 16th the delivery is on hold somewhere according to the parcel service "THE SHIPMENT WAS DISCHARGED AT THE DELIVERY DEPOT". I contacted computer universe support by email on May 22nd: no answer. I phoned computer universe support today (May 24th) and get an answer after long, long minutes on hold: "we will investigate with the parcel service but this will require time because we are understaffing..." it is similar with the auto reply I got after my email: "Please note that unplanned absences may result in processing times of up to seven days. We will get back to you as soon as possible and apologize for the longer processing times.
In order to ensure the fastest possible processing please be patient, do not send duplicate messages, and wait for our response...". I am very unhappy with the customer service of computer universe, it is likely my last order.

Reply from computeruniverse

Hello, we do not see a mistaken double charge for the order.
We generally have a pre-authorization on the credit card, and the amount then gets charged when the shipping is being initiated. Some credit card overviews don't differentiate between authorizations and charges, so please contact your credit card company in order to check this.
The shipping had been initiated on the 10th of May. We'd like to apologize that we couldn't ship the order sooner because our stock couldn't cover the higher item quantity (in the double digits) per ordered position. Thus, we had to wait for the coverage through our supply chain. Regards, Marc

Hello, the order came in when the item had an unknown delivery date. This had been and still is being shown for the item in the webshop.
Our support team had given the information, that we would soon get stock from our suppliers. We'd like to apologize for the unclear information.
The order had been canceled as per your request via email. Regards, Marc

Return our rights back to us

This web was once a life saver to outside europe. Because it did gave the customer the right to buy products with a good price . But due to the irresponsibility. Not only shipping stopped to outside algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿 , but to the whole countries that are not in europe . Adding also the carless customer service which didnt give a single explanation about the reasons of stopping the shipping . As algerians we demaned our rights to return and get the shipping back to our country .
