Excellent Tech Support!

After learning of an issue with my SenseCAP M1 Hotspot, I sent in a ticket on Discord and received quick, excellent service from the team. Thank you for resolving my issue! You guys are the best! Stephen

Tech support AMAZING, other support.. not so much

Well, didn't expect much when miner went down due to past experience. Tech support was great on helping me out and the instructions were really clear for someone who had no idea what they were doing.
Would have been 5* if not for the bad prior experience, as they never did refund me my location assert that was supposed to be covered by the sensecap as it was the 1st location assertation on that device ever. (Fresh out of the box miner bought straight from Seeed- 1st assert is covered- Told I should've stopped before I paid- only noticed I paid that coverage a day AFTER it went threw and had contacted them right away with proof that I paid that coverage instead.) So that was a dbl location assert fee I ended up paying. Paid the amount in the buy of the miner and then sensecap didn't cover what it said it does even in their faqs, and paid a 2nd $10.55usd assert fee. (first set up ever of location for miner)

no delivery, no refund

There was no indication on the web order form that my device would be rejected in U.S. customs. I never got the device and never got a refund.

I should have read the reviews of this company first. There were harsh warnings about their business practices. Ouch.

Save yourself the heartache.

I strongly suspect their positive reviews were self generated.

Mario the legend

Mario was super helpful and assisted in all the issues I had. I’m a bit of a rookie so having someone guide me through was very helpful.

super quick help

I can only say great. I have several of the company's helium hotspot products and this is the second time I have had an issue. The first one was solved to my complete satisfaction thanks to the hard work of the support team. The second time I had a reaction within 1 hour with concrete solution steps. that led me to my goal. Great
