As one would exspect

As one would exspect, the site was effective and selection simple.
I would have been better to attend the branch , in future I would choose this option as I made an error with the size I ordered! Staff in branch effected change for correct size and fitted them. Thank you

Recently had need for a new mobility trolley for my sister. Popped into our local Ableworld in Shrewsbury knowing very little about what we needed. The expert assistant manager Mark took excellent care and concern in finding out what out needs exactly were, and finding us the right low weight trolley for my sisters needs. they even took our old broken and dilapidated trolley for scrapping. We are all very happy with the new purchase and look forward to dealing with them in the near future.

Online experience not great

I didn't like the on line ordering process. It was unclear until payment was almost complete what the carriage charge would be and it stated that I would be informed of despatch date and delivery. Apart from telling me it would be delivered by Parcelforce there was no communication regarding delivery and it therefore just turned up at my mothers house without me being able to share any information with her - not idea for a 94 year old lady who lives alone.

Dear Sarah,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

As with most online purchases, the delivery charge is displayed during the secure checkout process, where customers are shown a full breakdown of the items ordered along with the applicable carriage charge.

Once an order has been dispatched, it can be tracked through Parcelforce. Email updates are also sent to the email address used when placing the order, which normally includes the estimated delivery date for the recipient.

If you would like us to review your order or assist further, please don’t hesitate to contact us at support@ableworld.co.uk and a member of our team will be happy to help.

We genuinely value all feedback, both positive and constructive, as it helps us learn, improve, and continue providing the best possible experience for our customers.

Take Care,
Ableworld

Visited the Shrewsbury store last week…

Visited the Shrewsbury store last week to find a lightweight Mobility Scooter. Mark was incredibly helpful, very informative and knowledgeable. No hard sell.
Returned earlier today to pick it up.
Mark ran through how it worked etc again and put it in the car for me.
Highly recommended visiting this store.

My wife and i went to Shrewsbury branch today to look at purchasing a mobility scooter. We were very well looked after by Mark who showed us various scooters and my wife tried some out to see which one suited her needs. We are very happy with our scooter and im sure we will find it invaluable. Thank you again Mark for spending so much time with us to make sure we were happy with our purchase.

Good quality items at reasonable prices

Ordered by phone, very friendly staff, Sarah was very helpful and arranged for the items to be delivered asap. I purchased two Ziggy adjustable walking sticks in a lovely gunmetal grey with Derby handles and I couldn’t be more pleased. The quality is excellent. Would definitely recommend this shop.

Mobility Lightweight Scooter. e were looking for a Mobility Scooter…

We were looking for a Mobility Scooter for my husband, and required one which would fit into the boot of our car. We went to the Shrewsbury Branch and met Mark who was very understanding and helpful. Listened to what we needed and suggested a couple of models for us to try. We decided on one which was easy to breakdown/ light weight and comfortable. Just the job. So bought put into the boot and off we went. No problem.

Very disappointing custome service.

Ableworld Update Very disappointing customer service.
Yes! oh my god. I have FINALLY RECEIVED A FULL REFUND.
Am I grateful to Ableworld - Definitely NOT.
Did Ableworld give Great customer service. Definitely Not.
Was I treated with respect & understanding. DEFINITELY NOT.

It disappointing that you feel it's ok to state that we have to agree to disagree, how utterly callous that you feel it's ok to just wipes away the injuries my husband and I suffered, and the life threatening risk you felt it was ok to put my family and I put in.

The reason for my overwhelming dissatisfaction is their Senior Engineering & Logistics manager.

Ableworld should have refunded my money when I returned my faulty Jolly Boot scooter just 23 days after purchase. Not starting when the key is turn on, Stopping without warning when being used.
These really were major issues.
There Senior Engineer & Logistic’s Manager claimed User Error. to be honest, it was user error for everythin. He explained suddenly stopping as a Safety feature – that it’s gone into sleep mode because I the user have forgotten to turn it off !!

What absolute nonsense from a senior engineer & logistics' manager. Dpes anyone turn their scooter off when the are actually crossing the road.
I'm appalled and insulted by your customer service.

You made me feel totally useless and incompetent with your constant User Error.
To be continually put at serious risk, with both my husband and I being injured, dismissed as user error. How incomprehensible and downright callous.

To be threatened by passengers because this Jolly Boot Scooter DOES NOT have ample ground clearance which causes it to breach on some trains ramps.
As a family we really have been totally overwhelmed with number of incidents during the 17 weeks since purchase, yet this includes 10 days at Ableworld for a 2nd assessment by the same engineer.

As a family we are very relieved this saga is over and the Jolly Boot scooter has gone.
I’m sure Ableworld will say the manufactures didn’t find any faults but doesn't prove anything with the recordings I have.

I’m now looking for a New scooter.
Would I buy from Ableworld - Absolutely Not.
Lessons I’ve learnt the hard way in my darkest period.
Don’t be fobbed off with user error, make Ableworld or any company listen with your reviews.
Don’t read the good customer reviews, they are selling you stuff and want your money.
Read the 1-3 star about after sales service from people who’ve encounter problems.
I definitely encountered serious problems with this scooter that put me as risk of injury everytime that I used it.

Finally Don’t be fob you off with user error especially when it puts you at serious risk of injury!
