Excellent Customer Service

I logged a ticket with E-Bikes and received a very quick response from Davey. Following a few emails back and forth, Davey went above and beyond to help with my request. I am so very grateful.

Basis Dorchester E-Bike…

I actually bought a Dorchester E-Bike on a whim! My lovely Giant E-bike was stolen and as I happened to be working in Bodium I thought I'd pop in to ask for advice. They were really helpful and experienced and explained that in all honesty to replace my Giant I'd be looking at something way out of my price range. As I was leaving I spotted the Dorchester and liked the look of it so asked to try it out. I bought it there and then. I've had it now for over 6 months. I've really put it through it's paces and it has never failed me - even towing a trailer with my inflatable Kayak. I use it mainly for shopping and commuting and it's brilliant and phenomenal value for money. I did need to change the pedals and the stand - but other than that, it has performed way beyond my expectation - I've even done the odd South Downs ride on it.

Great help to fix my Basis Beacon E-MTB

I started having power issues on my Basis Beacon, it was loosing power on Power level 1 & 2 and then on 3 and over some time it would loose power assist shortly after a journey start. I contacted E-Bikes direct for assistance and they willingly helped me through the issue. Promptly sent me parts required when the area of fault was identified. Very pleased to be back on the road and with assistance received. I must say when the fault occurred I was sceptical about getting much help from an online sale company but it was in fact great. If buying another bike I would certainly use E-bikes direct again, where I originally purchased this and another bike and those purchases also went very well and speedily.

Super disappointed with the customer…

Super disappointed with the customer service.
The assistant couldn’t answer my questions and when I asked for a manager he said “ there is no one available, I can’t help”
Than he just ended the call without letting me finish talking.

Not nice at all

Searching for a replacement hot tub…

Searching for a replacement hot tub late in the summer season and up popped an electric bike shop with a hot tub and priced very reasonably. Paid and within a day got despatch info. No delivery tracking info sent on the day so quick email to Davey and within half an hour he’d replied finding out where my parcel was and was given a rough timeframe of delivery. Fabulous customer service, would highly recommend.

First Class Company

I recently have been dealing with E Bikesdirect and have been delighted with all their help and assistance, how refreshing these days to deal with a company that puts their customers first, many other companies should/could learn from this company’s ethos, my thanks especially to Davey - first class all round and I applaud you sir, can’t thank you enough

Disappointing buying experience

The mistake I made was 'distance' buying an E-bike from this company based on a) the sales advice received over the telephone and b) mis-interpreting what constituted a '2022' model versus one that had clearly been in stock for some considerable time. I foolishly provided my debit card details for what essentially was merchandise 'sold unseen'. What arrived in due course was subsequently rejected on various counts - thereafter the onus being entirely on the customer to endure the inconvenience and expense of re-packaging and returning the item to E-Bikes Direct. At the end of the day, it is for the reader of this report to formulate their own opinions and take a view as to how many of the 'glowing' reports are genuine or otherwise. All I'm saying is that, wherever or from whoever you purchase an E-bike, visit the retailer's premises and satisfy yourself that it is indeed the right bike for you.

Professional and helpful customer service team

I can highly recommend using E Bikesdirect, based on my recent experience. Having not ridden a bike for several years I opted for the Osprey which is a foldable electric bike. It arrived well packaged and within a week of purchasing. However, after riding it a couple of times it became obvious that the gears were playing up. I contacted Darren in customer services and he suggested I take it to a local bike repair shop to have it looked at and that they would cover the cost. The mechanic was able to spot and resolve the issue swiftly by installing a new chain, as the original one was sticking badly and effecting the gears. E Bikesdirect reimbursed the cost of the part and labour and my bike is now working a treat! I would not hesitate to use them again.

Excellent Customer Service

I ordered a front light for my bike through E bikesdirect which unfortunately malfunctioned within a couple of weeks. I contacted the company about the matter and their customer service was absolutely superb. They took the matter up with the supplier, kept me constantly appraised of what was going on and arranged a replacement.
It was an absolute pleasure to deal with them (especially Danny who was my point of contact) and I couldn’t fault their service.

Bike lock.

Ordered a bike lock a day before the 4 day Jubilee weekend and received it 5 days later. Wasn't expecting that, thought maybe middle of the week. Pleased with the lock, diamond rated, for the best price I could find.

Great bike helmet

Ordered and bought a crazy funny but cool Raskullz unicorn bicycle helmet for my granddaughter at a great price via Amazon.
Arrived very well packaged in record time!
She'll love it thank you.

Issues resolved with the help of Trustpilot

Purchased a new £1700 Ebike, but there were communications/customer service problems. After leaving a review of my experience of the company here, I recieved a phone call from the Gen Manager to help resolve the issues. The issues were resolved. The company has many positive reviews, so I can only assume that my experience was untypical of their day to day operation. Would I buy from them again ? - yes, I believe I would.
