Customer experience above & beyond!!

I am very impressed by the great customer experience with Futura Direct and a special mention to Eloisa who has done a fantastic job communicating with me since day one.
The blade plate of my strimmer broke some 18 months after purchase, so I contacted Futura. A replacement plate was sent, but unfortunately the retaining screw was impossible to budge so I couldn't repair the strimmer. I went back to Futura to ask if they could sell me a strimmer with no battery as I already had one from the broken item. I thought at least that would give me a reduction on the cost to replace the strimmer. To my surprise and delight, Futura has sent me a totally new strimmer at absolutely no cost!
Customer experience can be very mixed, especially when buying online, but Futura and Eloisa have gone above and beyond to keep this customer very happy and I know where I will shop in future if the item is stocked by Futura!!

Wrong items sent

ORDER #37224- Really poor. Ordered a replacement blade holder for my GGCTG18. The invoice states part ordered GGCTG18 (the model number on my strimmer) I called customer service and she says I’ve place an order for model IZTTCGT18-4 despite me having the invoice for a GGCTG18. I have no idea how they can get this so wrong. I desperately need the replacement by Saturday (it’s now Wednesday) and the customer service agent said she can do nothing but investigate. They cannot even send out the correct item until I have returned the incorrect items that THEY have sent. I’ve bought 2 strimmers, a hedge trimmer, 4 batteries and 2 chargers from them before (through eBay but the replacement I needed wasn’t on eBay) so I’d like to think I’m a loyal customer but they just don’t care about anything but your money & do not fix their mistakes.

Hi Matthew
I am very sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused with your order.

We have now sent the correct blade holders today via next day delivery, and we have also included a pack of 100 blades as a gesture of apology for the trouble this has caused.

We understand how disappointing this has been, especially given your previous support and loyalty, and we sincerely appreciate the opportunity to put this right. Please accept our apologies again, and we hope you will give us another chance in the future.

Good quality, good value outside furniture covers

These outside furniture covers fitted nicely, were well made using a lined nylon type material which is durable, waterproof, and should retain its colour. They are secured to the furniture legs using quick release straps attached to the covers, so they will stay in place in windy conditions.
They were well priced and delivered next day for no cost.

Prompt service and value

2 oilfilled radiators that arrived promptly as my boiler broke. Excellent heaters and a great price. The 2 thermal blankets are very cozy and feel luxurious. Very happy with the items and overall service

Excellent product for excellent price

Bought a cover for for our outdoor furniture and are delighted with it. It fits well as the measurements in the product description are accurate. Despite some very wet and windy conditions the cover has kept my furniture dry so very happy with it. Excellent value without paying a fortune.

Bought a Terratek 18V Cordless Paint…

Bought a Terratek 18V Cordless Paint Sprayer, December 2024 from Amazon - it purports to come with a two year warranty but I've sent three emails and left a voicemail after the call went unanswered, nothing, zilch, zip, nada.

I bought a 2nd battery too, I feel ripped off.

Purchased a electric throw in November…

Purchased a electric throw in November 2025, now in April 2026 it stopped working.
Emailed the seller and they said they would send me a replacement controler in the post, after only two days it arrived and it worked. Just wish all companies were as efficient and customer focused. Well done, will certainly be useing again.

Replacement heater

I bought a panel heater from them which developed a fault after 16 months. I spoke to the customer services who promptly sent me an email with information needed from me. I promptly returned it and then received a new heater within 48 hrs no charge.

Terrible company

Terrible company, bought a heater through Amazon which never arrived.
Despite repeated requests to the seller for a replacement heater or a refund, all correspondence stopped. All emails from this company seem to be computer generated.
Had to go through Amazon to get my money back, a problem they solved in 10 minutes..after 6 weeks of no progress with futura.
Will not use again or recommend.
