Very noisy wheels

I bought Epic Discovery Neo 55cm, with two wheels. On their web page Epic says "the wheels are super-silent". No, they are not. The wheels are even more noisy than one of our old bags.
I got in contact with EPIC but they only get back and explain the "super-fantastic construction".

Unfortunately after only 2 times of…

Unfortunately after only 2 times of use, the zipper started running out of it’s track and slowly got more and more destroyed. As I don’t live anywhere near an Epic dealer I wrote to an email that I found among the suitcase labels (apparently the e-mail to contact regarding warranty issues if you don’t have an Epic dealer in your area). They are not helpful and won’t respond to my e-mails.

For the same price I could have bought a good Samsonite or another quality suitcase. Not a recommended brand.

Hello Pernille,

First of all, we would like to apologise for only responding to your Trustpilot review now. Although quite some time has passed, we would still like to thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

We are genuinely sorry to hear that your suitcase did not meet your expectations and, even more importantly, that you felt you were left without the support you needed when you contacted us. That is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have.

We would very much appreciate the opportunity to look into your case again. If you still have the suitcase, please feel free to contact us at info@epictravelgear.com and refer to your Trustpilot review. We would be pleased to see if there is anything we can do to help.

Thank you again for your honest feedback. We hope we will have the opportunity to restore your confidence in EPIC.

Kind regards,

FAKE WARRANTY, RUDE EPIC LUGGAGE STAFF

Contacted Epic Support about defects on luggage. Without knowing the issue with the luggage, “Support” made an assumption and tried to end the warranty request. Then after I explained what the defects were, they just ignore what I had explained, and said “No sorry”. That only tells me that the warranty on all EPIC products is as good as trash.

Hello Lissette,

First of all, we would like to apologise for only responding to your Trustpilot review now. Although quite some time has passed, we would still like to thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

We are genuinely sorry to hear about your experience. It is particularly disappointing to learn that you felt your concerns were not properly understood or considered during your contact with us. That is certainly not the level of service we strive to provide.

We would sincerely appreciate the opportunity to review your case again with fresh eyes. If you still have the luggage, please feel free to contact us at info@epictravelgear.com and refer to your Trustpilot review. We would be grateful for the opportunity to better understand what happened and see if there is anything we can do to help.

Thank you again for your honest feedback. We hope we will have the opportunity to restore your confidence in EPIC.

Kind regards,

Good and ambitious company

Bought an Epic phantom 67L summer 2016.
Worked just fine and felt like some nice quality compared to the price. Got a nice "hull" warranty.
After 1½ year the wheels started to get stuck and it became a real annoying to pull the bag around.
Wrote to their support and they send four new (better quality) wheels.

So formidable support and custom handling - only reason for only 4 stars is why they didn't but those HQ wheels on in the first place? Otherwise I am very satisified!
