Mobile Phones Direct 5 star review on 12th November 2024

"Very bad experience with Mobile phones direct . \r\nI have placed an order on 7th March and upfront cost 299\u00a3. Item has been delivered to me on 9th March. As my existing contract going to end in June I can\u2019t transfer my mobile number. If I want to keep the number I have to pay the termination fee. Hence I decided to cancel the order\/contract with in 15 days cooling off period. I called mobile phones direct on the same day 9th for cancellation. They advised me to return the phone with in 3 days . I posted the device on the same day 9th through Royal Mail Special next day delivery which I have paid 9\u00a3. The item has been delivered to mobile phone direct on 10th March 9:30 AM and signed by them. Contacted Customer service and they asked me to provide royal tracking id and proof . Provided trackingid and proof to them . Then they said I need to wait 5-7 working to process the cancellation. Keep on chasing them . Every time same wait till 7 working days . Today again I called customer service . I have been informed that some backlog items hence the delay. No notifications or communication about the delay . Still I am waiting for the cancellation process and then another 5 working days for the refund . Though I am not using the SIM card still I have paid to network providers as mobiles phones direct didn\u2019t inform them. Once cancellation processing is done then only they do inform the network provider . I need to wait another month to get the refund from the network provider. You get cheaper deals with mobile phones direct but the service is not good as expected. Very bad process. Very bad experience with them.I have seen other reviews with similar experience. Please don\u2019t waste your money. They are breaking rules, customers act law. even after sending the proof of item delivery still playing games and making excuses. Read In reviews that gave same reason for them too. Seeking options to complain on Mobilephonedirect with all the proof and emails if it won\u2019t resolve."

“Order was pending and then cancelled on their end - no reason as to why, they won't tell me for "my security". Clean credit history and no previous issues with getting phone contracts. Suspect they just don't have the stock. Utterly unhelpful correspondence and 'helpline' staff.”

“Appalling service! I would give no stars but had to put one to leave this review! They promised me £70 trade in for my old phone and said they would send a jiffy bag to return it, however, despite phone calls and emails (and constant promises that the bag would come) over several MONTHS it has still not arrived. They reply to emails with generic responses promising to help and wishing you a good day but go round and round in circles continually asking the same questions that in the end you just have to give up! I CANNOT EMPHASISE ENOUGH HOW TRULY DREADFUL THEY ARE!!!!!!!!!!”

“Get into your spouses and kids phones and other gadgets without them knowing or suspecting. It feels good and safe to know what your family members and loved one’s does at always without them knowing . I had always thought it was never possible to monitor your partner or children without them noticing, but all thanks to him I am able to view my partners activities without her even knowing.

“I ordered iphone 14pro in September and it was initially ‘next day delivery’. It’s been 3 months now and they still can’t deliver the phone. I paid in cash with my credit card, paying interest on it, and they using my money. The agents promise to back with an answer but never do. Even after escalating to the manager, they never got back to me as promised a 24 hours response. I wasted my time sending multiple emails and calling them. This is disgusting. I am raising the issue with trading standard agency. Please do not waste your money and time with this clowns. Other competitors are delivering the same product within 3-4 weeks as they promise.”

“What went wrong???….. ermmm everything, got sent a phone that don’t work, I send back special delivery, and now they have ignored me for days and days, terrible customer service, been on hold on a 0345 number for well over 2 and half hours and still I haven’t got through to anyone. Got promised someone would call me back on an occasion and surprise surprise I got no call back. A terrible company who sweet talk you on the phone to get your money and custom……. Then when there’s a problem they go vague or just totally ignore you…….. DO NOT GO THROUGH THIS COMPANY”

“ABSOLUTELY AVOID THIS COMPANY. After waiting 2 months with one only 1 email to update me on my purchase, I called up numerous times. I finally got sick of waiting and cancelled. The lady on the phone confirmed it was cancelled and that I would receive a refund. I then ordered a new phone that arrived the next day. Now the phone is suddenly in stocked and being shipped! After I cancelled it. Now I am in an awful situation. AVOID AVOID”

“When it come to hacking, I know of a very good hacker that can help you with any types of hacking services, either phone or computer, my wife's was so smooth at hiding his infidelity so I had no proof for months, I was referred to this ethical hacker and decided to given him a try, the result was incredible because all my cheating husband text messages email Facebook and even phone conversation was wired directly to my cellphone, JOSE helped me put a round the clock monitoring on his and I got concrete evidence of his escapades.

“Ordering one samsung s22 ultra after 1 month didn't receive it. When i cancel my contract and i've asked for upfront cost they said i will recieve it in 5 working days. It takes more than 1 month and i haven't got my money back. I recieved also a monthly payment feom o2 but i never received my phone or my sim card. Terrible!”

“If I could give zero stars. I would. Cancelled my order, in spite of my giving them the information they requested. No help from customer services: They just said I would have to reorder, and put me through to sales. 35 minutes later, I'm still waiting. Have missed out on a promo deal from Samsung, as have now missed the deadline. Absolutely awful. Avoid at all costs.”

“Hi everyone, I feel I should really let you all know about the person you should contact when you are in dire need of hacking and top-notch spying services in person of JOSE. It was this person who helped me out with my college grades when I needed an upgrade desperately when I could not do well due to working in-between jobs as I had a family to fend for. He also does offer other services relating around hacking like expunging criminal and driving records, spying on cheating girlfriends/boyfriends/spouses. I have referred many of my friends to him, and he really helped them out and they are still very grateful till date. SUPPORT@HACKERSPYVILLE.COM”

“Didnt submit my PAC code, leading to charges from my old network. Won't refund these of course as they claim it isn't their problem. Terrible customer service.”

“AVOID ! First time I've ever written a bad review for anything but felt so disappointed with the Service received from start to end so ..: Ordered a new phone from Mobile Phones Direct on Thursday 20 October 2022 which involved submitting a PAC Code as part of the application (to retain my old number). Their website stated the phone would be delivered the next day as long as the order was submitted before 8 pm (which it was) - we are now on Monday 24 October and still no sign of a phone and no progress made when viewing the current status on my account (stated as 'pending'). As i had sent a PAC Code then Mobile Phones Direct had immediatley moved my current number as soon as the application went through (last Thursday) to the new network provider - but no phone delivered , so i have been without any network for the past 4 days and counting. I telephoned their Customer Services this morning and the automated voice at the start of the call stated 30 min wait but i ended up waiting 50 mins to get through to an Advisor whos opening question was 'how was my day' ( which in usual circumstances would be a good opener but not when your customers have been waiting nearly 1 hour to get though to an Advisor). Why arent the Customer Advisors aware of the long waiting times or if they are - i would recommend maybe opening with something like ' sorry for your wait' as nowhere during the call did the Advisor say this even though i explained id waited 50 mins to get through. After finally speaking with an advisor - id established they do not have access to view any documents which i had submitted as part of my application (for proof of ID and proof of address) so Customers are speaking to Advisors who do not have the tools / access to be able to respond to queries fully. They only have access to 'notes' added by a different Dept. In the end we had established they had left the status set as 'pending' awaiting information from myself which i had already sent to them previously - so error on their part and no follow up communications which i would have expected as a chaser from them. During the call i was told it would take another 24 hours to update my status at which point i said i was cancelling the order as i wasnt happy with the service. At no point did the Advisor try to persude me from cancelling my order or applogise for the poor service . Unfortunatley not a good service from start to end and a waste of the past 4 days without no phone - i have had to start again and order from a different provider.”
