Excellent service
Wide range of products including a bulb that I was looking for - specifically a daylight bulb for crafting/painting etc. There was an issue with Royal Mail which led to some communication but they were really helpful and keen to sort it out. Highly recommend!

Be warned - High courier surcharge for Northern Ireland
Watch out if you order for Northern Ireland delivery. Larger items incur a courier charge of £7.95 + VAT, which is fine but what is not clear, in my opinion, is that if you live in Northern Ireland you will incur an additional courier charge of £20 on top of the larger item courier charge as the courier interestingly classes Northern Ireland as an 'export package'. To be fair to Martin at Lamps2udirect there is mention of a surcharge for NI in the T&C's but the extent of this (200%+) could be spelt out more clearly to avoid customers wasting their time.

Hello Alastair,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review - It seems you have a fair bit of it.
As you have stated, we do advise customers to contact us before ordering oversized items from offshore isles so we can confirm delivery charges in advance.
We do not make profit on delivery charges. These are simply forwarded on to the customer.
The option to cancel is always offered and in this case a full refund was issued.
Easy web site, fast delivery.
Very easy web site to find exactly what I needed now that we’re replacing clockwork lighting with LED. Fast delivery and well packaged strip light bulb which had no chance of breakage in transit. First class, I’ll be back.

Thank you, Robin. We hope to help again soon.
Excellent company.
I’ve used lamps2udirect before. Their website is easy to navigate ( & I’m a wrinkly 😊). Prices are very competitive. I ordered 3 fluorescent lamps & unfortunately 1 was broken. I contacted customer service & spoke to Martin who was extremely apologetic, friendly & professional. He offered a replacement or refund. I requested a replacement & have received . Highly recommend this trustworthy company.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Steve.
We have not had any contact from you directly.
It looks as though you placed this order over the Christmas period when we were not operating. We did note our opening hours on the checkout page, but it looks as though this is probably the reason there was a delay.
Hopefully you now have the goods and everything is well!
Fake Philips Infrared bulb
I bought a Philips 150 watt Infrared Heat Lamp Bulb model PAR38E from Lamps2udirect for physiotherapy but I received a no branding product. It absolutely couldn't be use for phsio treatment. It is totally unuseful, definitely a rubbish.

Hello there! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We have not had any direct contact with you, so if you can get in touch with us, we can hopefully help to resolve this issue.
The item you are referring to - Philips stopped making this lamp a few years ago now - This is a direct replacement. Please check your order confirmation and the product description where this is made clear -
**Philips brand now obsolete - A direct replacement will be supplied in exchange* Philips made this lamp obsolete in 2020; We have been supplying this lamp as a replacement since **
We are happy to have this item back, if you would like to return.
Friendly and helpful customer service
