Received a 'new' SUP at a cost of circa £300 in a box which was clearly a returned item in a bag that was covered in mould.

Was offered £10 compensation and told to wash the bag!!!

Aquaplanet, I raise you distance selling regulations and the Sale of Goods Act.

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.

We are sorry to hear that the board package did not arrive in tip top condition, as you would expect from a new product. It is definitely not a returned item, as these get received into a different warehouse location. It sounds like there has been some damage to the packaging and product whilst in storage / transit. We are in touch with you to resolve this.

We do not intend to supply items in the condition that you have received your product and as soon as we are made aware of the issue, we do our best to take appropriate action.

We do hope that we are able to provide a suitable resolution for you.

Kind regards

Fantastic products and great service

I've bought 3x boards now from Aquaplanet and they have all been really good. Any issues have been easily sorted from a faulty life jacket to a damaged electric pump hose that was replaced with excellent communication from their customer service team. I'm impressed by the responsiveness and their eagerness to continuously improve. The boards have been durable and sturdy with only very minor issues. I will continue to buy from them.

Love this board!

All the kit arrived separately but within a day or two. Love the board! The hose to the hand pump leaked, So I contacted customer services and a replacement hose was sent out straight away.
Cant wait to get out paddling!

Fantastic company

These guys cannot do enough to help when things don't quite work out. I've had nothing but great experiences when dealing with their customer service team. Thoroughly recommend these guys, not only for isups and accessories but also their customer service.

Hi Julie,

Thanks for leaving us your feedback!

We're sorry that you haven't had a perfect experience with your purchase from us, and that there is no glue in your new repair kit! We've arranged for some to be sent to you right away, so you will have this shortly.

The black tool in your repair kit is for tightening your valve up should it become loose, and instructions for how to use this can be found on our website.

We hope that you love using your new board, and are looking forward to lots of long sunny paddles ahead!

Kind regards,

Aquaplanet

Simple site to navigate

Simple site to navigate

Easy to find what I was interested in

Factual site

Good prior experience

The only issue, which isn’t the fault of AP is that the courier delivered to a neighbour as I wasn’t in! The four legged “doorbell” and the Ring doorbell both confirm this not to be the case

Excellent company to deal with

Buying experience is super easy. There's a ton of information about choosing the right board and paddling in general. When I have interacted with the support folks they have been really helpful. All in all a very professional experience and I will be buying from them again.

Boards look and feel amazing

Bought two paddleboards for my girlfriend and I. They came in super quick fashion and delivery was really good. Unfortunately one of the rucksacks that the paddleboards come in was covered in mould. Customer services were quick to respond to my email and offered me either £10, which I thought was a tad insulting, or a new bag. Luckily the board wasn’t affected so I just took the new bag. All communications were polite and very quick and they had the new bag out to me nice and quickly.
The boards themselves look epic and feel really good quality, can’t complain about them.

Great boards and company

I've bought 2 boards and my wife and I love them both. I had an accident on my board recently and damaged a d ring. The costumer service from Aquaplanet was amazing and I was more than happy with the outcome. Thoroughly recommend these guys!

Stick with Decathlon!

Nothing wrong with the product, however within 48 hours of purchasing my product, it had been put in the sale with a substantial amount off. This is despite asking in advance if a sale was planned, given we are at the end of the paddle board season.
Not to worry I thought drop them an e-mail and I am sure they will help me out. Err wrong, tough luck was the response, better luck next time.
Feel ripped off and I would have no confidence in their pricing and as such would not purchase again from aquaplanet. With the value of hindsight I should have stuck with Decathlon who I normally use for such purchases and I have never had an issue with.

Hi

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, I am glad to hear that you are happy with your board.

Sales and offers do run at varying times and our Customer Service team do not have advance notice of when deals will run and what these will be; I am sorry that this meant you ordered before a sale was announced.

The best way to keep up with any offers is to sign up to the mail list. There may be times that discounts are higher during the year, but we do not honour discounts retrospectively as this defeats the object of having a special offer on for a limited time.

We do our best to keep prices as low as we can for customers, but we are still a business incurring costs and have to ensure we can still keep trading.

I can see that you were able to make use of a smaller discount and free gift instead with your order.

Regards

Aquaplanet Customer Service
