brillant help once i finally got through

really nice staff on the other end of the phone ( emma and vicky). took a while to get through but was worth the wait for the help i got. Delivery service was rather poor but this i belive was not down to gadget grotto.

Order delivered incorrect - on re-ordering the main item was out of stock.

I wanted the Star Wars Cookie jar. To get free shipping I added another two (less expensive items) to the order.
When the order arrived - it was a Plasma Ball !! I'd received an order for a lady 100 miles away.
I raised a online complaint - which was ignored for a day - so I rang them and was assured that a full replacement order would be sent by next day delivery.
36 hours later I get an email saying the cookie jar was out of stock - so now I'm only getting the two "padding" items.
The customer service guy was very nice - but overall a very poor experience - as now it's too late to get a replacement before Christmas.

Abismal

Item never delivered, had to contact customer service at least 4 times to follow up, could never get through to customer service, always had to leave a message and they would call back 2 days later. Refused to refund me till items were returned to them via their courier (even though I never actually recieved them!!!!!) Rude, unhelpful and possibly the worst experience I have ever had with an online company. Will NEVER ever use or recommend them again.

Great product and great value

This was a novelty gift as part of a cocktail set. The test tubes were great quality and very good value compared to elsewhere. Delivery service was excellent too with very good quality packaging to keep it safe.
