We've used Highdown twice now

We've used Highdown twice now, to install DAB radios into two of our cars that just had basic AM/FM radios.

On both occasions, from enquiry to installation, Jeremy's communication was excellent. Personally, I'd always rather support a local business, in particular a specialist. Jeremy's level of advice and service was top drawer. He even changed a fascia, as they'd sent him the incorrect one. To be honest, we wouldn't have known but he clearly he takes pride in his work. I would highly recommend Highdown

Poor experience

I sent a very polite email to enquire about fitting a DSP amplifier to my car. After several days when I didnt get a response, I tried to telephone. There was clearly a problem with the line so I sent another email to advise the business. I got a response to that email about the phone issue but no response to my original enquiry. I tried to call again today but after several rings, the call got disconnected. I sent another email repeating my enquiry to fit an amp and asked when they might be able to reply or alternatively call me. I got the most unprofessional response complaining that they dont have staff to answer emails and telephone customers come first. I was told to take my business to a more corporate business! I fully appreciate that this might well be a "high end competent car audio installer/retailer" and that is why I enquired about fitting an amp. However, I wouldnt sleep at night if something went wrong and I tried to write to the business. The attitude was quite appalling in my opinion. I am 68 years of age and have NEVER had a business tell me to take my custom elsewhere. I was probably going to spend £1500 - maybe that it too small a sum for this retailer to worry about. I will take my custom elsewhere and make sure that I deal with someone who understands what customer service means. According to Esteban Kolsky, 72% of customers will share a positive experience with 6 or more people. On the other hand, if a customer is not happy, 13% of them will share their experience with 15 or even more

Dear John,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I genuinely appreciate your feedback, as it helps me improve my services.

As a one-person business located in Worthing, West Sussex, I strive to respond to all emails in a timely manner, typically within 12 hours. I apologize if my previous response did not meet your expectations. I understand how important communication is, especially when it comes to a significant investment like audio installation.

I acknowledge that my phone line may have caused some inconvenience, and I’m happy to hear that it’s functioning properly now. Please know that I prioritize walk-in customers and calls, which can sometimes result in delays for email responses.

Regarding your inquiry about fitting a DSP amplifier, I was awaiting confirmation from my supplier in Germany about pricing and availability, and I apologize for any frustration this may have caused. Your vehicle's audio system has 10 channels, and I want to ensure I provide the best

I genuinely value every customer, regardless of the size of their purchase. My goal is to offer personalised service, and I regret if my earlier message conveyed otherwise.

I would suggest discussing your upgrade by visiting the business you intend to use, so that you can discuss your requirements, inspect the facilites and get feedback. which is not possible via emails.

As you live in Newport, Gwent you could visit specialists in your area, as we are located in Sussex which is a 3 hour drive each way.

Thank you for your understanding, and I wish you the best in finding a service that better meets your expectations.

Have now had Jeremy fit both of our cars with Thinkware dashcams, nothing to much trouble for Jeremy at any time, and very experienced in his line of work as well with 1st class quality products he sells at very reasonable prices. Would certainly recommend Highdown Car Audio & Security to anyone that requires a well known named product fitted and given a demonstration by Jeremy on how it works afterwards. Brilliant.

Great job, very professional.

I asked Jeremy to fit some rear parking sensors on my car. I had a little trepidation as I never knew anything about Highdown having found them on line but I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. The sensors look as good as any car that rolls off a production line with them installed. An excellent piece of work so I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Highdown.
