Now all is good.

Well what can I say, Skullcandy have read this review and have suggested some things to try to fix the issue but it did not work so they have sent me another pair of earbuds free of charge!
Thank you Skullcandy for sorting the issue when you could have just ignored the problem.

These earbuds are now totally useless, they constantly connect while even in the charge dock so when I go to use them they are always out of charge.
I have deleted the app and reinstalled, I have removed from my phone and paired again but they still constantly connect.
I will be switching brand and these will be in the bin.

Don't Waste Your Money

If I didn't use them so much when I was younger I'd be calling this company a scam, nearly 100 on headphones that have only worked for a month or two, tried emailing about warranty, two weeks have gone by and no response, tried the AI live chat that leads you round in circles saying to contact customer service, you click to contact them and it says they shut the email service down in August that leads you back to live chat that keeps you in a loop, don't make the mistake I made the headphones don't last, you won't get your money back or a replacement because there's no way to actually get a response

Customer support is useless

Gods forbid you'll make a mistake in your delivery address. You'll never see your earphones or money back. Customer support couldn't do anything, even though only 10 minutes have passed since ordering.
Update: well, skullcandy told me that I need to reach out to delivery company, on this case DPD, to change address, DPD says to reach out to skullcandy to change the delivery address. Figure this out, because I can't.
And as far as refund goes, "If no one picks it up, it will be sent back and then we will refund/resell". Yeah, this is real world, that's not happening.

Terrible customer service

I have been waiting for an update on my order that I placed on 16th November. All I get from Customer Services is that they are waiting for the Courier to collect it but couldn't tell me who the courier was!

I ordered some headphones as a Christmas present over 2 weeks ago and so far, no idea if or when they might be shipped.

No telephone number
A NOREPLY email adress
A BOT on their webpage

I can't even cancel the order as there is no way of doing it that I can find.

Awful customer service

Honestly considering ive brought from them before you’d think delivery would be quicker and there is no customer support trying to contact them and no one has contacted me back nd it’s been 2 weeks.

Latest update: Still no refund.

Latest update: Still no refund. My order was cancelled on 13.11.25. Live chat in my account has stopped working. I can’t contact them like before. Emails get no reply-complete ignore. I’ve opened a case with Klarna to get my refund. This company is completely terrible.
Think twice before ordering from the Skullcandy UK website. Better to buy from Argos or Amazon. The product is brilliant, but the customer support is ridiculous.

Helped submit a warranty claim amazing service

I had a broken product the produce was nought as a gift and so had no proof of purchase they assured me this was a one off but that they would help me submit a warranty claim without it. They also submitted it manually due yo a fault on my end was having a very bad day I couldn't have been happier with the service I received.

Today I received an email from Skullcandy

Today I received an email from Skullcandy:

**“This is Rhyan from Skullcandy.
I’ve confirmed that your order was cancelled due to a shipping delay. We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience this has caused and greatly appreciate your continued support of our brand. We completely understand your concern regarding the refund.
I can see that your refund request has already been submitted. Since the purchase was made through KLARNA, our internal team is currently addressing some issues that have been affecting the processing of refunds for this payment method. Although we don’t have an exact timeframe yet, we’ve been assured that this matter is being prioritised and will be resolved as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.”**

-It’s ridiculous that they don’t have any timeframe for the refund. So it could be a year :)))) And they still have issues with Klarna—already for a week. What kind of “issues” take more than a week to resolve? It looks like nobody cares about processing the refund. It seems I’ll need to contact Klarna about this company and ask them to take the money back due to what feels like a scam.
I highly do not recommend anyone to order anything from Skullcandy UK to avoid issues like this.

I purchased Skullcandy Rail ANC earbuds…

I purchased Skullcandy Rail ANC earbuds from Brand Eyes. On opening the box, the charging cable and one ear muff were missing. Despite sharing the unboxing video and order ID, Brand Eyes denied responsibility, calling the video not genuine. Ms. Harjeet from customer service was completely unprofessional and rude, showing no concern or accountability toward resolving the issue.

Hi Choton,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. Receiving a product with missing components is incredibly frustrating, and the interaction you described with customer support is not the standard of care we expect for our customers.

While Brand Eyes is an authorized retail partner and handles fulfillment on their orders, we never want a customer to feel dismissed or unsupported. We appreciate you sharing the unboxing video and order details, and we want to make sure this is fully resolved.

Our customer service team has reached out to you directly to move forward with a solution and ensure you receive everything you originally paid for.

Thank you for your patience and for giving us the opportunity to make this right.

Tried to order a pair of earbuds and the promo code did work but it wouldn't let me order before you know it, the code has expired but today RAFFY one of the customer service agents helped me right out gave me £30 discount code with also free shipping on top.

The most useless Audio company to ever exist

If there was a button less than one. Poor poor terrible customer service and communication. Zero accessibility and zero communication and zero service. Bad business people to say the least. Terrible people and too prideful for such wimpy weak products. I’m filled with regrets guys. Avoid skullcandy at all costs

I Wish I Had Read The Reviews...

I Wish I Had Read The Reviews...
I ordered a pair of headphones but for some reasons the CANDY40 code didn't work, even though it has taken it off in the basket. As soon as I clicked through with ShopPay it put £25 back onto the order. I contacted Skullcandy immediately to cancel the order and I'll try the code again (ticket number available for evidence).
No response. Waited and tried again and tried to speak to someone. Only got an AI bot telling me to try again another time. Never heard back and got no response. Eventually got a hold of someone at 9pm 3 days later as they work on USA time (Eastern time?) who said I shouldn't have been able to put in two voucher codes, hence why that code didn't work. But the basket said I could but removed them after I paid?
I'm sure the products are good, but I'm returning it due to the very poor customer service and the order glitch. They won't listen to this feedback I'm sure and state it is policy to only use one code etc etc. I see I'm not the first who has had an issue with ordering and contacting them. Please read the other reviews, avoid this company.

Absolute scam

Absolute scam! I ordered the anchor 360 evo earbuds and the left one broke completely within 3 days and both won’t connect. Upon submitting a claim to attempt to get a refund, the website and customer service pages both broke making it impossible to contact any customer service or receive refund emails. POOR QUALITY, TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, DO NOT BUY!!

Smokin' Bud Earbuds.

Edit: The response, to the below review, from Skullcandy provided me with an email address to get in touch with them directly however the address proved to be invalid so no further forward.

Bought some Smokin' Bud earbuds in May 2025 and one has stopped working after very little use. Tried contacting Skull Candy via their online chat and twice have been informed a support ticket had been generated but I have received no response. I have tried contacting them via two of their social media platforms again without any response. Really disappointed in the quality of the product but even more so in their total lack of response.

Not sure why they have customer service because they don't help

This "shop" automatically logged me in when I put my email address in and then proceeded to check out and went through when I hadn't finished. I messaged them less that 2 minutes after It had gone through and I received an email. Can't cancel, won't help etc. Can return but it'll cost you to do so. Absolute scammers used to use their products all the time but not anymore.
