Disappointed with service initially but redeemed in the end.

I was very happy with the initial purchase of my PC and with the technical help I had with an issue but it all went wrong when it turned out the supplied monitor was faulty. They initially tried to evade their legal obligations under the Consumer Rights Act but eventually conceded the issue so the situation was resolved to my satisfaction. In the end Jonathan dealt with with the issue in a very professional manner.
I do think this was an unfortunate glitch, and that the majority of customers would have no cause for complaint.
I have revised my rating from 2 to 4 stars - it would have been 5 if they had dealt with this better right from the start.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

We’re sorry to read about the experience you’ve described, particularly the issues encountered with the monitor and the frustration around the collection process. This is not the level of service we aim to provide when something does go wrong.

Be rest assured that we will be reviewing this further and reaching back out to you directly.

Kind regards,
PCSpecialist

Great PC and post-sell service!

Great PC and post-sell service!
I appreciated the attention to detail, such as sending me a 360 pic of the PC as soon as it was built, and keeping me posted throughout the process.
This is the second PC I purchase from you and can't recommend y'all enough. Thank you so much!

Purchased a PC from them before

Purchased a PC from them before. That was excellent then and it is still a good PC. My new PC is extremely well built. I opted for a pre-built PC. It was very well put together, extremely tidy cabling, arrived well packaged. The only negative is their chosen courier in Ireland dropped the PC off at my front door and left. I was home at the time but they didnt ring the door bell and left an expensive PC outside and I live on a main road (I reviewed my camera footage). It was 3 hours before I noticed it was outside. It was supposed to be a signature required delivery. Other than that I will use them again.

Better than expected service

Better than expected service. Great selection tool, that warns you in as much as possible what is not compatible with eachother. Via email, informed solid advice. Highly recommended. Also pricing is good and fair.

Highly recommend PCSpecialist (Top-tier service)

I'm a 2nd time customer (over an 8 year period). I ordered a high-end workstation and everything arrived as expected, they provided updates the whole way through the process in great detail and were very responsive to any of my enquiries. Truly top tier experience as a customer and highly recommend them

Dont answer their phones

I spent 2 days trying to get through to pc specialist - waiting over 10 mins, each time.
I then sent an email stating I wanted to buy a pc from them, saying that I'd been repeatedly trying to get through on the phone & asked for someone to call me back. The next day I received an email from someone called Martin saying they were too busy.
I decided to try another pc company who I got through to immediately and have now ordered a pc worth nearly 5K from them.
I hope whoever owns pc specialist sees this review and does something about their customer service - because of your poor customer service you just lost nearly 5k in sales!

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

I’m sorry to hear that you had difficulty getting through to us and that this ultimately influenced your decision not to proceed with an order.

While we do aim to be as accessible as possible across all channels, there are periods where demand is higher and response times can be longer than usual. That said, feedback like this is taken seriously and is reviewed internally as part of our ongoing efforts to improve the customer experience.

We’re sorry that we weren’t able to assist you on this occasion and appreciate you taking the time to raise your concerns.

Kind regards,
PCSpecialist

Well oiled machine experience…

Starting from ordering, extra discount with voucher, personalised quick assistance, customization, key updates on assembly and finally installation help via email, everything was very smooth like a well oiled machine! Well done guys for what you do to help people get the best possible PC as per their needs. I will definitely recommend to my friends. Thank you.

Great laptop

Great laptop, grandson very happy with it and it arrived just before XMas excellent delivery as well.

The way PCSpecialist laid out the process from start to finish was great as well and a message every time it moved onto the next stage.

Its rare to see such a well-oiled process and acompanied by fantastic communication that does put well known brands to shame :-)

Computers returned to you because of…

Computers returned to you because of unpaid duty on €13. 1 computer came with no duty so when we got a request to pay €13 for 3 further computers we thought it was a scam. We were no made aware of any duty payable by yourselves. This has delayed us by at least 3 weeks

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

We’re sorry to hear about the delay, and the confusion surrounding the customs charge.

We would like to review this further, but at this time, we don't appear to have any order information from yourself. Therefore, we will look to request this from you through Trustpilot.

Kind regards,
PCSpecialist

I am delighted with my laptop

I am delighted with my laptop. It is a really high end, top quality machine, custom made and much cheaper than major brands available in electronics stores. Communication on the build was really helpful. It was packed very well for postage too. I will definitely use this company again.
