Renew Electronics Reviews 647

Never ever buy from this company. They have been promising to refund my money for 4 weeks but have not done so. They are a scam and their products are so old they are obsolete.Wowcher is obviously in on the scam as well. Since they are uncontactable and refuse to provide any assistance.

Don’t refund your money when they say they will

Very poor quality device via Wowcher
Awful customer service

Do not buy from renew electronics
I watch bought through WOWCHER did not say it was refurbished it did not hold charge arranged a return and refund ,
And I’m still waiting one month later for the refund they are not answering my emails despite sending one every day!!
Stay away from them ,
I doubt I’ll ever get my refund!!!

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Purchased Apple Watch through Wowcher. On arrival watch was dead battery so charged for a long time and would still die after 5 minutes of use. Contacted renew electronics, stated to charge for 48 hours and try again. Still the same issue after this. Asked for a refund. 3 weeks later after being told multiple times 7 days, I am still awaiting a refund. Contacted Wowcher which hasn’t been helpful either. Really hoping I get my refund.

Renew Electronics!! What a rip off. Promises to refund my £139 for a re burnished Apple Watch which I returned as it was basically scrap! Under no circumstances use this company through Wowcher as they are total con merchants. It’s impossible to get your money back despite all their promises. My advice would be stay well clear of this despicable company.

If I could give 0 stars I would
I ordered something for my son for Christmas that didnt arrive … royal mail refunded this company months ago and they are holding back my refund making excuse after excuse to not pay me!
It’s dishonest, and disgraceful and not a company I will ever use again.. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY

I ordered an Apple watch from Wowcher in which Renew Electronics were the third party seller.

The advertisement showing the watch stated nothing about the watch being refurbished or even described what condition it was in.

Upon reviewing the item once delivered, I found that the watch was badly scratched (it looked like it had been thrown out of a car going full speed down the motorway). It came with no charger and was also dead, so I couldn’t check to see if the watch was working properly.

I processed a refund/return the exact same day I received the watch, and the watch was sent back via next day delivery and the delivery was confirmed to be received by Renew Electronics.

I was told that the item had been received and would take 5-7 working days for the refund to be processed. After I waited the required time, I emailed back to get an update on the refund. To which I was told that the item was being processed and the refund would follow in a further 5-7 days.

It has now been 25 days since the item was received by them, and I have still not received my refund.

Avoid buying anything from this company at all costs. I was forced to purchase a brand new watch and it has left me out of pocket, scrimping and scraping whilst waiting for the refund to come through.

DO NOT ORDER THROUGH THIS COMPANY!!!
I ordered an Apple Watch from Wowcher. It stated it would be good condition and it stated it was refurbished. Said there would be a few minor scratches and I thought that would be fine. I ordered it then I had to pay extra 12.99 for next day delivery for it to be sent 2 days later. Once I received the watch I was shocked. It was completely scratched all over the face and on the box it stated it was a grade C. It did NOT state this on the description before purchasing or I wouldn’t have bought it. It was supposed to be a gift for someone so I obviously couldn’t give someone a very very scratched up watch. I had to return this for next day tracked special delivery on the 7th it has now been 21 days since and the company is not stating it has been refunded to Wowcher and my Clearpay. I have had to pay for something I have not got. And their customer service is shocking. From most of these reviews I have seen it has been a month and they stilll have not been refunded. It is disgusting service and I will never order from here again and hope no one else does too.

Used these guys through Woucher. They sent the wrong notebook (ordered a 32gig, they sent 16) mistakes happen, but over a month later and the original sent back at my expense and no sign of the correct replacement.
They were going to refund my postage also... Which they have not
I have provided the details they have asked for several times...
I have asked how I raise a complaint 4 times... All ignored.
This company is very poor.

DO NOT BUY! I bought an iPhone 12 and it was old and scratched so I returned it and until now it has been a month and still NO Refund!

The refurbished chromebook i bought disconnects from the wifi like every 5 minutes. I tried everything until I gave up. If I could get a replacement would be nice as its just gathering dust.

I would not buy anything from this website, the product an Apple I watch I ordered came, the wrong clour, not only that you could hardly see the face of the watch there was that many scratches on it, when asked to return I had to pay the return postage and sadi i would be given that back, I havnt.

They received this product back on 18/02/25, after contacting them numerous times I have still not had my refund, reporting to trading standards stay well away from this company

I don't normally write trustpilot reviews but this one I HAD to write and warn others. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER. I had bought an apple watch from wowcher which sold through this vendor and the watch I received was beyond workable and extremely disappointing. The watch surface was COVERED in noticeable scratches and the watch band received was FAKE which snapped off the moment I tried to replace. Most importantly, as a "refurbished" product, I can guarantee that these watches are not truly refurbished as the battery on my watch would drain from full charge to 0% within half of hour of light use. In addition, the only delivery option was to pay £13 which is extortionate in its own right. It baffles me how this vendor can get away with selling these watches and how wowcher continue to advertise them. Reading other similar reviews just shows you how shady and disingenuous this vendor really is as its clear they are selling faulty products and advertising them as fully refurbished. It's absolutely criminal.

If you have bought an apple watch from this vendor, cancel immediately as I'm sure like 99% of reviews here that you will face similar experiences. I was hopeful reading some of the 5* reviews but upon receiving my watch, I have immediate regret purchasing.

DO NOT TRUST SELLER. INGENUINE!!!!

Do not order an Apple Watch via wowcher
Very scratched and damaged screen , battery only lasting about 8 hours
, been sent back and they are Denying receipt of it , despite tracking showing it as being delivered
Avoid these criminals
Chargeback opened with credit card company

AWFUL COMPANY AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
ordered an apple watch off them and arrived relatively quickly after paying £13 for delivery too. The apple watch was scratched and had a fake strap like the ones you can get off amazon - the watch was too old be compatible with my phone so i emailed their support who asked for it to be sent back before they can issue a refund. THEY HAVE HAD THE WATCH FOR A MONTH AND STILL WONT REFUND THE MONEY. I have repeatedly chased them for a refund and they completely lie every single time and after a month they still have no interest in sending the money back

DO NOT ORDER
Placed an order in December , order never came , customer service has been shocking and so rude , still til now have not received any refund or watch

Bought Apple Watch 4 through Wowcher, paid £12.99 for fast delivery, should have arrived by the 10th at the latest, contacted the company, said it closed over the weekend hence delay and no refunds given on postage.said it was ready for post that evening. Eventually arrived on the 13th. Watch looked ok, checked battery health, said a service was needed. Battery running low with minimal use. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY

I paid through Wowcher redeemed the code paid 12.99 for next day delivery but never came on the said day! No contact to say why… be warned electronics I won’t be fobbed off and I’m contacting my bank and trading standards, please please be careful. Woucher are just as bad I’ll never buy of them again.
23/02/25 update the watch arrived and I must this watch is excellent and I’m amazed on the Quality and if the next day had been done I would have given 5 stars. Love the watch in extreme good condition

Run away from them.
I wish I can attach a picture of laptop they sold to me. Please check the name of this company and if it them run away. Is not worth it. More like scammers.

Absolute scam, They hide behind Wowcher who should be just as complicit. Sent the wrong refurbished apple watch, asked me to return at my own cost. Proof of delivery but denying they have received it and wont process the refund.
