Order a working laptop battery last year. The battery died, yes this happens. Discussed send a picture. Same day a replacement was dispatched. Super service, many thanks

First they provided comprehensive help online, by email, in English, then the battery was delivered quickly. It fits and works perfectly. Highly recommended!

one star is one to many.

Sent me a duff battery for a panasonic camcorder so i contacted them only to be told it wasn't the correct battery despite the camcorder model being shown in a drop down menu stating the battery fits , then tried to sell me a more expensive battery of a higher mah , although the battery was faulty they refuse to pay the return postage, judging by the negative comments on here a lot of people have had the same thing done to them , subtel's modus operandi , my advice is read the reviews on here first about subtel , and the go to ebay.

This company web site lies

This company can not be trusted, and the web site is full of crap information. I googled for batteries for my new Panasonic HC x1500 camcorder, and the first four picture boxes come up with subtel selling batteries for my Panasonic. I promptly ordered two 7800ah batteries with a charger on the 1st June for immediate dispatch? DPD emailed me to say they had received my package on the 5th June, and it was delivered on the 6th. When I tried to fit them in my camera, they did not fit. I contacted the company straight away by phone, only to be told I have to email any communication with them. I told them the problem of the batteries not fitting, and their response was I "ordered a mistaken article"? I told them I ordered the batteries because their site said these batteries would fit my model as indicated by the drop down list. They asked what the battery model came with the camera, I responded only to be told the model of your battery is not in the list of substitutes, so I would have to return the batteries at MY cost. It cost me £11.15 to return, so I asked for this to be refunded as they contradicted the consumers act of 2015 on two counts, article sent was not as advertised and not fit for purpose as they did not fit. They responded as I fully expected with my model of battery is not in their list of substitutes and therefore an incorrect purchase, so no refund of return postage!!! So if you own a Panasonic HC x1500 camcorder, please do not order anything from this site as you will have batteries sent to you that won't fit even though the Subtel web site and Google search bring up this model over and over again. Google search "Panasonic HC x1500 battery" and check out the results! Subtel can't supply batteries for this model and I wonder how many other models are not catered for? THIS COMPANY ARE MIS SELLING DO NOT TRUST.

Hello,

To make sure a replacement battery is compatible, you have to check both the device model and the original battery model. Manufacturers sell devices with different kinds of original batteries inside for example depending on the year of manufacture. It's the same for tires for example. If you have a Toyota you can't just google ''Toyota tires'', order the first thing you see and when it doesn't fit just call it a lie. You have to check the tires that are already on your car to make sure you get the right ones. It's a bit the same principle here. That is why there is, on our website, a clear list of batteries that can be replaced. This list in not there for no reason, it is there to be checked.

So the battery you ordered is compatible with X1500 under the condition that your original battery can be replaced. If you had a battery model CGA-D54 for example, that actually appears in the list, then it would fit perfectly in your X1500. So no, we're not ''mis selling'', it is just that you don't read properly all the informations before ordering. There is no need trying to put this on our shoulders. If you're not familiar with replacement batteries it's fine, it will be a pleasure for us to help you.

Despicable parody of service!

I cancelled my order less than 3 hours after making it, when I discovered the specs of the items were in fact wrong.
36 hours pass, and customerservice then replies that I should then send the package back to them. At this time, they still hadnt sent it, so I complained.
30 hours pass after their reply to my cancellation, and they now package the item, and declare that they will later send the [cancelled] item. They insist that I must still return the cancelled item to them at my own expense, (equal to 40% of the order price.) obviously hoping that I will give up my refund claim, when only 60% of funds can now be salvaged.

Hello,

You sent us a cancellation form on a Saturday when no one is in the office. Your parcel was shipped on Monday the 13.03 at 9:19. The parcel wasn't shipped 6 hours after our first email like you said but 3 hours before. We understand you might be angry and we're sorry for that, but there is no need to make up false information.

Poor quality of screen protector without any support

I bought a glass screen protector for my phone. It arrived a bit later than expected, but it was alright. I used it 2 months after my purchase. The quality was really poor. It even didn't stick to the screen. I reported to the company and they said there won't be any refund. But since it had warranty they were supposed to send another one. They said they sent another one( without tracking id) and after more than 2months I didn't get anything. All in all, not only waste of money, but also waste of time. I do lots of online purchase, but can say for sure this was one of the worst experiences I had. Less reliable than random seller on Ebay. Never recommend them.

I ordered power supplies that I need urgently. It has been impossible to get any reply from customer care on phone or email. I have waited a week before I got a track and trace, and I will have to wait more than a week more, before I get the products. If they are not further delayed.
In these days most companies deliver the next day or perhaps after 2 days. Really bad service.

We're sorry to hear that.
There seem to have been problems in the delivery.
Unfortunately we don't have a direct control on that. We are reachable by phone everyday from Monday to Friday and we reply to mails within 24 hours.

Reliable shop with good goods

I have ordered two laptop chargers from the shop - wasn't sure which one is better in my case. Then returned one of them via post and received a refund. Almost everything went smooth. The only small problem was that after an email notification from subtel that the refund process has started, the refund did not reach me within several weeks. However, after I alerted them to the problem, they reacted quickly and the refund reached me within a few days.
