Ordered a product on 21 Jan and told on 31 Jan (10 days later) that item was out of stock. This was a present for my son which I was told would arrive between 3-5 working days. If the item was not in stock I should have been advised prior to purchase and I would then have purchased elsewhere. I have now purchased from Amazon and it will be delivered tomorrow but it is now 5 days after his birthday. Shocking customer service and terrible communication.

I bought a gift for a child for a birthday where the shipment was supposed to be 7-10 days for delivery to the UK.. It's been 11 days now and the package has not arrived, the child has not received a birthday present. It is sad.
I do not recommend it and I will never use it, and I will tell my friends not to use the company.

Wish I had read these comments before ordering from this ‘company’

No update on order status, payment taken from my account immediately, no communication and no idea if I will actually receive my item.

Contacted my bank to raise a fraud claim.

Failed to deliver on promises

Ordered an item with delivery expected before Christmas. After weeks of chasing and escalating, they never responded to any communication. Only after raising a claim through PayPal did the item arrive over a month late! Useless customer service and pathetic service alround!

I call BS on this company!

Purchased an item that was out of stock everywhere (as it's discontinued) yet mygeekbox claimed was in stock with them (I checked before and after the order to confirm they had physical stock vs drop shipping).

Despite being confirmed as in stock, the order never progressed beyond 'Awaiting Dispatch' so I sent mygeekbox an email which was ignored.

I then reached out via FB where I got a relatively swift, clearly outsourced and canned response which was absolutely zero help as it offered no insight at all.

I waited a few more days, tried again and got a similar useless response via FB so then asked for a refund only to be told that it may be possible however it cannot be guaranteed - hmmm?

In the end, I did manage to get a refund but it was hassle and wasted a lot of my time so I certainly would not recommend doing business with this company! There is certainly something shady going on about how they can allegedly have stock of items that nobody else can get but have no staff available to ship said stock whilst having plentiful amounts of 'colleagues' with differing names to send you useless responses on FB?

I've read all the reviews about this…

I've read all the reviews about this site. Most of them after I had purchased from geekbox. I thought I had been another victim of another package that would never come. Lucky for me after a few emails automated emails to from geekbox I eventually recieved my item after almost 2 months of waiting. I was sceptical and had already asked for a refund. The package ended up coming a week and a half later. So after all I will say good prices, the communication is not great and doesn't provide much answers and shipping can take forever but if you are lucky enough to receive your items them it's a bonus. I don't think I'd buy from them again though.

Checkout is a nuisance

Shopping straight forward... Checkout on the other hand was a nuisance. Don't want an account, don't want "free" things that I have to subscribe and pay for, just want to pay for my things and that's all. 20 emails after the "unsubscribe" button might actually work

Honestly Bad Experience

Honestly, it has been a bad experience. I don't usually like to complain. I placed an order on 12-22-2021. My order hadn't even been sent to the warehouse when I requested to cancel my order on 01-03-2021. Customer service lady said she will request it right away. I checked for an update on 01-06-2021. Order status still showing processing. So I contacted customer service once again. Says they requested it, but unfortunately it has to be canceled by warehouse. I'm like ok. Gave them more time. Then I asked for an update on 01-12-2021. Someone tells me unfortunately your order is too far in processing to be canceled. Which is unacceptable. I then contact them on facebook same day. Got a reply saying to disregard the customer service rep and they will be working with operations to cancel it. Still nothing. No update. At this point I just want my money back and to never deal with them again.

This place is impossible!

This place is impossible. Whatever you do, do not order from them. They sent a package later than they promised and then wouldn’t let me cancel and they want ME to pay to send it back. Total waste of space.

DO NOT BUY!!

DO NOT BUY!!! Or do and good luck. If you can't trust the already posted reviews you best find out for yourself as maybe it's bc you cannot read. Scam! Will keep pending payment on your account for months without checking into it themselves. Not to mention many other flaws....DO NOT BUY
