Rated 4 out of 5 stars

My original order was not delivered. Turned out the courier was at fault. Subtel contacted me and offered to send me another one. They did. So top marks to subtel. Impressive customer service.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Item was delivered on time and in good condition. The glass is a little loose in the frame so it can rattle a bit, I am not sure if this will be a problem?

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The item was delivered promptly and I was kept informed of its progress throughout. The package was well-sealed, the item exactly as described in the advertisement. I was impressed!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Quick service and delivery. Notified throughout from the initial order, to dispatch to delivery. The product is everything I wanted. Thank you!

My velux solar windows batteries

My velux solar windows ground to a halt. A little research & doh ! the batteries have expired. The Subtel equivalents were perfect, pre charged and worked immediately. Delivery was prompt and I’ve saved their details for the next time I need replacements !!

Scandalous delivery cost

Subtel wanted to charge me £45.95 delivery on my order due to their insistence on using DPD Couriers. So I contacted them and asked them to send via Royal Mail since that would cost £2. They refused. I got them to deliver it to a relative (for £2) who readdressed it and posted it to me for the regular Royal Mail postage cost. I was invited to leave a review here on Trustpilot, which I did. I then received an email from Subtel using extremely unprofessional language pressuring me into changing the content of my review. Absolute joke

Hello,
We are sorry to read this. Indeed since Brexit, DPD and other couriers charge very high prices for deliveries in some parts of the UK (Scottland, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man...).
This happens regardless of the seller or delivery company. This is a rather annoying situation that we and other sellers have unfortunately no control over.
The part of your comment about the normal post is however legitimate, as we unfortunately don't work with Royal Mail. We apologize for this.
The email you received, that was not ''extremely unprofessional'' was not meant to ''pressure'' you in any way but rather to provide an explanation to this very simple situation. Unfortunately an explanation does not seem to have helped.

good warranty and cutsomter service

i have to say that the warranty they offer is brilliant and what is even more so is that you dont need to rely on the warranty as the batteries i have got are so good that they serve you well. customer service is brilliant too, so as long as the quality keeps up and customer service remains good i will use these lot as my go to .

Dell laptop battery

Quick, easy transaction and very speedy delivery. Well packaged and clear instructions for install and maintenance of the battery with regards to charging etc.
Very happy with my purchase and will definitely be a returning customer.

Do not use under any circumstances

No response from the company on trying to return items despite 4 attempts, they appear as if they are trading in the UK, they are not and therefore very difficult to get hold of.

They finally responded after I wrote this review basically saying I had not communicated with them!!!. Doesn’t make sense all I wanted was the option to return the battery, some companies make life so difficult for their customers.
I will return the battery but doubtful any refund will be forthcoming.

As expected - the battery was returned to them on the 23rd September signed for by RANSLEY still no refund!! despite chasing - again

Battery return …

Bought a Philips Avent 2600mAh battery but found it had a different connector to what I needed - my mistake really, but customer services couldn’t have been more helpful, returned & got full refund including postage. Would definitely use again.

Ordered Psu

Ordered Psu, Never turned up . All I got from them was" can we have your address" after giving it to them 4 times I gave up and am trying to get my money back. Eventually received item. It was of good quality and fit for purpose

Hello,

As there was a problem in the postal code you gave, the first parcel could not be delivered.
We then asked for a confirmation of your address twice, not 4 times.
As we told you, a second parcel was shipped yesterday and is now on its way.
