I sent my off road electric board in for repair over a year ago. After months of sporadic checking in with them they told me they cannot repair my board so could either return it or discount a new boa... See more

Terrible customer service.

Orders wheels costing £65 which turned out to be wrong - our mistake. We were told we could easily return them and get a full refund. They were returned on 15th September and still waiting for our refund. Countless emails sent to check on status of refund but no one ever replies. Shocking customer service.

I contacted Smart Boards Uk due to my son needing a repair on his electric scooter. Mark was so helpful and went out of his way to identify the make & model as we didn’t know either, and then sourced the part we needed to repair the scooter. Although the scooter couldn’t be repaired by the store, Mark’s help has meant that we won’t need to buy a new scooter and can repair what we were told was irreparable. Would highly recommend and will go to in future to purchase any further scooters

Hello,
We are slightly confused by your review... you ordered a refurbished hoverboard from us.
As with all our refurbished products this clearly stated in the title and picture that it was refurbished and the key in the listing showing what each grade meant.
If you are not happy with your purchase you are welcome to return.

No response to request for help

I ordered a replacement wheel for my grandson's hoverkart as well as some other items on the 3rd September.
They arrived the following week, about the 8th.
When I came to fit the wheel it was apparent it was the wrong size so I emailed Smart Boards to request an exchange. I have heard nothing.
I telephoned today, the 17th, but was asked to leave a message and I would get a call back - silence.
The item was poorly described on the website with no mention of a size measurement - merely "heavy duty standard" and a picture which appeared to be the correct item. It was a 6" wheel and I need an 8.5" wheel.

Hello,
The listing has 5 pictures, it states it is for a standard kart (kart without suspension)
The listing states to check pictures for dimensions, last two pictures show the width and length for screw holes to fit.
We sell 3 types of these wheels for karts.
Please see below on how to return a product if it is not right for your needs:

Non Delivery of item

Ordered a electric bike 9 days ago, had no email for delivery date, no communication at all, other than a reply to an email I sent.
Just would like the bike delivered!

Hello,
Unfortunately the particular item you ordered has a 3-12 working day shipping period, we have no express options for these items
You ordered on the 3rd September, if we count weekends which very few courier companies do your parcel was delivered on day 11, or 8 working days from your purchase.
We hope you enjoy the bike.
Kind regards

REFURBISHED HOVERBOARD & KART DEAL

My daughter saved up and bought a Grade C refurbished hoverboard and kart package. It was dispatched promptly and was exactly as described ie. with cosmetic scratches but in full working order.
Her sister was so impressed that she ordered exactly the same refurbished hoverboard and kart package a few days later.
It has only been a week or so but we are extremely happy with both purchases - and feel reassured by the 6 month guarantee if anything should go wrong (fingers crossed!!!).

Great product, great service

After a quick chat with the sales guy who was really helpful, I bought a refurbished hoverboard and kart for my sons 10th birthday, he absolutely loves it! All working fine and in great condition. Had a little issue that the seat on the kart had a big crack in it when I got it out the box, but contacted customer service service and they sent a replacement immediately.

Very poor service. Disappointing.

Sent board with motor fault second week in April, waited several weeks for update and had to chase on a number of occasions. Can't get through on the phone and no calls returned.
Board eventually repaired and returned end of June with new motor.
Worked for a few hours and then new motor stopped working.
No response from Smart Boards. Now considering legal action.
Would not recommend.

Hi Lesley,
We're so sorry for this. Unfortunately we are unable to ship these size batteries to Saudi Arabia as they are prohibited by our carrier.
We wish you all the best in the hunt for a replacement and if there is anything else we can help with please let us know.
