Delivery took a long time ( and DHL messed up the delivery which wasn't your fault). Impressed that you replaced the lost item.

The experience was not great, but if you start out with only one star you aren't asked for follow-up comments! We ordered a DVD player online in the UK, with UK costs, and were sent a US product with... See more

This company has the worst customer…

This company has the worst customer service I have ever experienced.

I ordered a keyboard online, only to discover that they were selling an older version at a higher price, while a newer version of the same model was available for less. When I contacted customer service to request the newer model and a refund of the price difference, the real problems began.
Customer service flatly refused to exchange the item or refund the difference. Shortly afterward, they even removed the cheaper, newer keyboard from their website, which only raises further concerns. The entire situation was handled extremely poorly and unprofessionally.
This is unacceptable customer service. I strongly recommend shopping elsewhere and comparing prices before purchasing.
At the end i requested a full refund and got the same keybord cheaper from a other compagny.

Shocking customer service.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Don’t use this company

Don’t use this company. Product came from the US despite it being a UK company, product isn’t compatible in the UK.

Product is also 7-14 days late arriving. Still not turned up.

I’ve asked for a refund and they said I had to refuse the delivery and it will be sent back before being refunded.

Avoid this store at all costs!!

I placed an order for a specific product, but only found out it was out of stock after repeatedly following up myself. At no point was I proactively informed that the item was unavailable.

Instead, I was offered a completely different product as a substitute, which was not acceptable as I specifically ordered that model.

I then requested a refund, which was agreed. I opted for a full bank refund, which I was told would be processed within 5–7 working days.

Despite this, the refund has still not been received. I was later informed that the refund had supposedly been processed and would arrive within 24–48 hours, however this timeframe has also passed with no funds received.

Communication has been slow and inconsistent throughout, and I have had to chase updates at every stage.

At this point, I am left with no option but to consider opening a formal claim with my payment provider.

Based on this experience, I would not recommend this company.

Patriot Viper Steel RGB DDR4 RAM

Order: UK-DN#P599944012
I have to be honest I was a little hesitant after reading some of the bad reviews, but as with all things sometimes things can go wrong. Anyway, I decided to give them a shot. Ordered some Patriot Viper Steel RGB DDR4 RAM 32GB (2X16GB) 3600MHz at the time they were the cheapest place around. Plus, I wanted to match what was already fitted in my machine. After a little prompting I was kept informed on my orders progress and considering they were coming from the United States, I certainly didn’t expect next day shipping. Ordered on the 8th March and arrived 19th March. All in all I have to say the service I received was fine.

Screen protector

I haven’t fitted the product yet.
But it did arrive yesterday. Everything looks great and very professional.
From buying to receiving is a little slow, but that is because it’s out of the country. Would buy again!

Fast efficient service.

Fast efficient service.
Although based in the USA. I was very happy with the delivery time. The price of the products are also very competitive which was my main reason for placing the order.
Overall good result from a company I have never used before but will be very happy to use again.

The time between ordering

The time between ordering, paying for, and receiving the AV157 was rather longer than I expected ( almost 1 month).
Despite ordering on UK website item had to come from the USA.
Arrived with wrong power cable (USA version) so had to seek assistance. Purchased a compatible replacement locally. DirectNine arranged a refund to cover this.
Need to be clearer on processes and time it may take to deliver item.
