The worst company I’ve dealt with

The worst company I’ve dealt with. Ordered a pit bike on the 24th of august. It’s is now 15th of August. Kept on lying about delivery dates. So I cancelled it on the 6th of September still no refund. Almost £1000 taken from this rude scamming company. Women at ‘customer services’ has no clue how to talk to customers and is a compulsive liar. Refuses to call or answer the phone to.

I’ve never written a review before, this is how bad this company is.

AVOID AVOID SCAM ALERT

AVOID THEY ARE SCAMMING PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY.
I ordered a pit bike in may but never sent it so I asked for refund and guess what!? They wouldn’t send me 1!! After 4 and half months waiting I phone the bank and luckily they dealt with it and got my money back.
They’ve done this to most customers, they don’t even answer the phone or emails.
Stay away from This company.

Disgraceful!

I usually wouldnt do this but If i could give no stars i would, disgraceful company, and i will be sure to let others know, i paid this company 480 pounds for a revvi bike and battery in aug, yes it was a pre order but they kept pushing their dates back, after speaking with revvi personally they informed me that they are taking peoples money and not putting an order into for these bikes i still have not recieved, i asked for a refund last month and im still waiting. They dont answer the phone and emails can be the same. DONT ORDER UNLESS UVE MONEY TO WASTE!!

Buyer beware

Said they had 5 products in stock from the day after. I paid 599.99 and the following day the emailed me stating the ship was delayed and it would be 4- 5 weeks later, I asked for a refund and am still waiting as with others the excuses keep coming but no money they won’t call me and won’t answer the phones have had to get the credit card company involved so should get the money back eventually
I would be very careful if you decide to use the model hut

This compant does not even deserve a 1 star! I saved up for 7 months to buy my son a electric quad for Christmas,he was on it no longer than 2 minutes and the chain broke!i then emailed them and they said they would send out a new one,after numerous amount of emails I still didn’t get a new chain so I had to purchase one myself baring in mind i had to spend £56 to get the right chain as nothing stated what it was called! After this the axel has now snapped and what a surprise no emails to say what is going to be done about it! Spend your money somewhere else as these items aren’t worth half the money they cost!

Very very disappointed

I have placed an order the 16th and we are now the 22nd. Never received any update on the delivery date, they never answer the phone nor the emails. My son's birthday is next week and it breaks my heart to know my boy might be disappointed 😞

disheartened buyer!!!!

My sons bike arrived for Christmas on time but I have had nothing but issues with it. He has never been on it or used it. Such a shame. I still have the bike and have been in contact with Amie trying to get a refund/replacement, and to get this one sent back. It is now April (4 months after Christmas), I was told lastweek a replacement bike was dispatched via 48 hour delivery via Yodel. Still no bike!!! No response from Amie when I have questioned or chased this up. I have been lied to and fobbed off. I have no instructed my solicitor to deal with recouping the loss of funds. It’s disgusting a firm can do this when there’s small children saddened behind this. I am not taking this nonsense anymore & I will get this resolved through the appropriate measures legally.

Hi, Gillian
I recall speaking with you on several occasions, the first being to send a replacement pull start out for you.
The second time you called and said that the pull start had arrived yet you could not start the quad, we asked you to email us with a little more specific info and pictures/videos if possible, that would give us a better understanding of what the problem actually was with the quad.

Looking at the previous email you have sent 2 minutes before this review, if the quad runs but cuts out this is likely to be one of either 2 things, 1: The fuel/oil mix is incorrect, running the engine to rich will cause this problem, the other possible cause would be the carburettor needs replacing, if you would like us to send this out for you that is not a problem as the quad is still covered by the 6 months parts warranty. If you would ilke this sending out fitting a replacement carburettor takes about 45 minutes, if you are not comfortable doing this yourself, I would recommend taking the quad to be fixed by a qualified mechanic which we will reimburse the cost of for you.

As for the phone issue, we are a small family business with myself and my partner at the helm, unfortunately my partner has been in hospital so we have not been in the office much to be honest, the warehouse however has still be operating but the guys down there won't always hear the phone. So apologies for that, if you had have emailed we would have been able to respond to your problem much quicker.
Regards
The Model Hut
