Fast dispatch and delivery. This air bed seems very well made compared to more expensive ones I've had, not much air has come out by morning and I've had no puncture yet, I've been using this air bed... See more

A+ In customer service

A+ In customer service. My package was delivered at an incorrect location but Juliet in customer service made sure that the package was collected and returned to supplier. Following that, Juliet made sure that a new item was dispatched the very same day. 5 stars. PS…. GREAT PRODUCT!!!!

too noise The air pump is far too noisy. When I tried to return it because of the noise, there was no straightforward return option available. Instead, I had to contact customer support by email.

They kept asking me to troubleshoot the product and requested videos and photos before they would process my return. The whole process was frustrating and unnecessarily complicated. A simple return option should be available for customers who are not satisfied with the product.

Lost repair kits...

I wrote to the company as we had lost our repair kits, Grace responded quickly and kindly agreed to send a couple out to me as a gesture of goodwill - excellent service and much appreciated.

Awesome service

Awesome service, we had a small issue with our king size mattress over several months using it.
They have replaced it once we contacted them with our issues. Wouldn’t hesitate buying again and would certainly recommend.
Customer service is second to none. 👏👏👏

Ordered a comfort plus king size airbed, it developed a tear within 3 weeks and the customer care team won’t even respond or help. Tried everything from mails to even repair kits. Waste of money.

Hi Amil,

We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

At the time of your enquiry, we were experiencing a significantly higher volume of customer contacts than usual, which unfortunately impacted our response times. We have worked hard to return to responding to customers in real time and have implemented measures to help prevent this happening again in the future.

I can also see that your case has since been resolved and that a replacement airbed has been issued.

Thank you for your feedback, and we appreciate your patience.

Dissappointing - air bed doesn’t last and poor customer service.

We bought the double air bed less two weeks ago and were happy with it - however just days ago we found a puncture on the top of the bed, along one of the seams. It must be a manufacturing fault. I contacted customer services and despite the first reply being prompt (instructing me how to deflate it), I haven’t heard anything since and it’s been three working days. I’m really frustrated as we need to use it, and it’s unusable. This could be so simple to solve with quicker replies, a phone number to call and an understanding of wait time. I have heard nothing. I bought this one because I’d stayed on their airbed before a few years ago and found it really comfortable, so I was happy to pay more for better quality, but I’m just disappointed.

From Loyal Customer to Ghosted: Drastic Drop in Quality & Support

I bought this bed again because I loved the original, but the new version is a massive downgrade. In less than three months, it developed a huge bulge in the middle. Despite claims that it won't dent, mine dented in a week. It is also noticeably smaller than the old model, and the new built-in pillow is uncomfortable and wastes valuable space if you are tall.

The worst part is the customer service. I used to praise their support, but now I have been completely ignored for over 10 days after submitting multiple web forms. They offer no phone number, making it impossible to get help. At first I had doubt maybe I entered a wrong email so I did it again, and still after a week I have not even get a response.
I am submitting a review here because it seems the only way to get a response.

Update: More than two weeks and still no response. This is hilarious.
Second Update: More than 5 weeks, and still nothing.

The wrong item was delivered

The wrong item was delivered. I raised this through their returns channel but after they admitted sending the wrong item I haven't heard from them since. I have tried to communicate multiple times but still no progress. Very poor customer care Active Era!!!

Hi Stuart, thanks for your feedback here.

Due to the recent heatwaves across the UK, we have experienced significantly higher than normal order volumes. This has resulted in increased demand across our customer care team, warehouses and courier networks.

I can see that we've now sent out the correct item to you, and hope that you enjoy it once it arrives.

Amazing Customer Support

I bought a Premium Single Air Bed for my son to use only when he came home from university during his half term break, however the air bed starting to deflate itself even no one slept on it.

Contacted Active Era Customer Support, Juliet & Maya they both absolutely brilliant, responded to us same day and taught us step by step how to check the leak.

At the end they arranged a replacement sent to us on next day delivery, i cannot fault this 5 star amazing customer support.

Thank you so much Juliet and Maya
