EXCELLENT customer service

I called Biketart in a panic as had been let down by another company. Andrew was absolutely brilliant and although didnt have what I was looking for at the time he called me back when he said he would and helped me source from elsewhere. Whilst I wasnt able to buy with them on this occasion I will most definitely be ordering from them in the future

Had a great customer service experience…

Had a great customer service experience with a chap called Andrew.
I changed my mind about my order and he was able to give great advice about other components which would suit my needs. He amended my order and order is being shipped out. Made it so simply.
Great job

Ok much as it pains me to give any…

Ok much as it pains me to give any business a less than favourable review….but!
My order arrived just over a week ago after some issues with a broken fork and the dropper post, all sorted by Michael.

Unboxed and set up as normal.
I didn’t even make it out of the drive. Firstly there was a score on the paintwork, then the dropper post jammed all the way up, making the bike impossible to ride.
I duly contacted Micheal, Biketart support and John with pictures as requested of the issues above. Then well…..nothing!

Now over a week later with requests from myself to return the Merida one sixty 6000 for a refund and still silence.

I’m rather annoyed at a 3k bike and box stuck in the hallway !

Happy

This was my first time ordering from you and I'm really impressed. I placed my order on 10/08 and received it on 13/08. The whole process was smooth and hassle-free, and the product was exactly as described. I'm a satisfied customer.

I do not recommend

I do not recommend. No information about the shipment. After a week, they cannot explain why they have not sent the parcel yet. They sell something they don't have in stock. I will never use it again

Bike is not fit for purpose

Bike is not fit for purpose, parts missing and the front wheel is now stuck and doesn’t move. I was advised to take it to a bike shop, it’s a brand new bike, why on earth would it need to be fixed? And as cycling is my mode of transportation I have to pay for this bike to taken to the local bike shop and then pay for repairs.

Very unhelpful customer service and a bike that is now unmovable sat in my house doing nothing. I’m expected to pay over a thousand pounds for this?

Not good enough guys, still waiting on a response for your customer care team…

Poor service.

Poor service.
Sent me a different item as advertised on their website. I sent it back over a week ago and still not received a refund or email confirming they received it, which is a bit different to the 1-2 working days they promise to issue a refund.

Shocking service

Shocking service. 2 weeks and still no parts. Told delivery on Monday then Thursday and nothing. I will use a company that is reliable who can get the job done.
