Don't order off this company

Paid £165.00 for an RC car and it never arrived. Failed to answer calls and emails but eventually refunded the money after pestering them through social media. Very poor customer services.

Shambolic customer service

Shambolic customer service, emails and voicemails ignored. Delivery still not received and no update provided on expected date for delivery.
Failure to deliver in a reasonable time is in breach under Consumer rights act 2015, I think they need to be reminded they need to observe this.

No e-bike

I ordered an electric bike on 5th March which according to the web site was "in-stock". Although various promises were made after e-mails and calls, deadlines came and went and I still had no bike after a month. As a result I cancelled the order and requested a refund. I was told that the money had been refunded, although it took another month with lots of emails to Klarna (the finance agency through which payment was made) to obtain it. A lot of hassle for nothing in return!
In the past I have tried to support small, independent businesses rather than multinationals but not any more.
I'm not sure what was going on but I do not feel confident about this business.

Tank M41

Hi! The sending time to Belgium was Faster than i expected. Well packed in. Had the connector for power network for free without asking. They did give feedback about the status. But just the minimum. I take away one star. On the site they say they turret of the tank turns 360deg. But in fact it should be explained that they turret turns 160 deg to each side. Greetings from Belgium!

Sorry about this but you didn' tstate an order number or name in your review, so we cannot comment directly on why there was a delay. If you can provide the order number we can lookup why there was a delay. Thank you.

Avoid at all cost

Avoid at all cost. Ordered part in November, was told it was backordered and would be sent when it was back in stock (a couple of weeks). It's now March, no sign of part or refund. Disgusting company do not give them any of your money.

Dear Mr Cairns,
When you ordered we did say a few weeks for the items to come back in stock. These items arrived with us last week and have been sent to you. You should receive them in 2 days.

Disctusting company 😡

How anyone can justify this company is a joke. I’ve waited to months for my £299 refund which I had an email yesterday saying they haven’t got no money because of the Christmas period and they r making my payment priority.. got the proof!!
NO1 buy off this company!! They’ve taken this money off my 10 year old son!!
Pathetic excuse
Police r involved now so probs cost them more in court cost so middle finger to them

I must say the after care of this…

I must say the after care of this company is definitely worth 5 stars. After scratching my head for weeks trying to work out what was actually wrong with my car, I decided to give them an email. With lots of guidance and instructions through emails and phone calls on how to diagnose the fault I was still unable to resolve my problem. Then they suggested that it would be easier if I just sent the rc car to them and they’d fix it free of charge! Excellent work RcToyworld
