Good price and all items in stock. Delivery was protracted but was kept up to date by email.A shorter delivery window would be helpful,having to wait in all day was inconvenient.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Excellent products at a great price, easy ordering and collection. There was 1 wrong item when I opened my package. I didn't bother to change it as the trip back would cost more than the wrong item.... See more

Thanks for the five-star review!

No refund given despite confirmation by phone that they will

Wrote two emails and called CS twice to request a simple refund. CS said they will collect the parcel which was delivered very late hence no longer needed. They admitted that DPD f*** up and said they will collect and refund. That did not happen. 7 days later I am on the line again, waiting for the 3rd time. This is very unprofessional and annoying. I will amend this review if they ever sort out the refund. One star for now for wasting my time and money. They are polite but not professional or serious.
***CS responded that they will collect. Let's see...

Appalling customer service and efficiency.
The lights I ordered are apparently no longer being manufactured and despite the wrong lights being sent out twice, waiting in for deliveries and collections of wrong items that never happened, a month later I still have the wrong lights, in my hall and no refund. Despite phone calls and emails l, waiting in on numerous days. No response to emails.
Just appalling

Good afternoon,

We are very sorry for the inconvenience you have received. Unfortunately the manufacturer had changed this product without letting us know. we have arranged courier collections however these have failed by them so we have now arranged our London DEPO to collect these for yourself as discussed on the phone. This should take place Thursday.

Ordered quite a large order for next day delivery only for it not to turn up on the Monday

Called directly, they said id purchased Saturday carriage when I most definitely did not due to business needs.

They then said it would be with me Tuesday before 12am. Never arrived again.

Further phones calls, keep getting told the same thing, it eventually did arrive on the FRIDAY.

Spent so much more money going to wholesalers near me.

Hopefully my next experience ordering here wont be as painful.

Hi Matt,

We are very sorry for the inconvenience with your order. Taking a look at your conformation i can see a Saturday delivery service was placed on this which has caused the delay. We will be looking into making sure we have a quicker process to rectify this going forward.

The item itself was well packaged and as described. Superlec were quick to dispatch but the issue I had was with the delivery company they use.Dx ,extremely awkward company, impossible to speak to a real person, they can’t give you a time slot, you cant collect the parcel and they won’t change address or let you leave it in a safe place. For me this completely ruined my experience using Superlec and I probably won’t use them again for this reason.
