““Through the exceptional recovery service of M A D A C O V I . C O it was a possibility and I came to know that lost investment funds can be retrieved with the help of hackers who are specialized in retrieving back lost investment funds, they are recovery experts, equipped with top notch quality and knowledgeable with the intricacies of the cryptocurrency landscape. I doubted their capabilities, I was shocked and amazed by how they were able to retrieve back my money in 72hrs after many months of watching my investment funds stuck up with the platform inaccessible, they were providing me with regular updates on the progress made with the recovery process which was a lifeline of hope amid my anxiousness and anxiety. The recovery process began with a thorough investigation on the fake investment platform with the information I provided, they worked relentlessly and tirelessly, going above and beyond in making sure I get back my lost investment funds. I will advise any scam victim seeking for legitimate recovery firms to assist with their expertise in their case should be contacting M A D A C O V I . C O to get back whatever they have lost to scammers investing into cryptocurrency.”

“Awful. No reply to emails, chat useless, technical department emails I was sent were the wrong address. Phone number refers you to chat. Just awful.”

“They use DHL for delivery. DHL are one of the worst courier services - and Rapid On-Line do - or certainly should - know that. My expected delivery never happened. Avoid Rapid On-Line at all costs.”

“Great idea and slick website designed to deceive. You wont get what you paid for and the company don't give a toss. I spent £45 on various bits one of which was a pack of three duct tapes, only it wasn't because they only sent one. They show the tape elsewhere as a single at £3.67. The scammers charged me over £7 for the one tape which makes it dearer than gorilla tape (amazing stuff)...all the other tapes were shown as singles and priced accordingly apart from this which muggins fell for. They offered to waive their 20% restocking fee if I told them to shove the incorrect order. They also show you prices without VAT which is illegal so are clearly about as slippery as can be. The chumps wont be seeing my money again. I'm sure trading standards would like to know too and I will be making a chargeback against the card.”

“Took over week to come to late for the YFC competition that I brought it for,usually I get second class post in 2 days 3 at the most. Also when the package was delivered to my daughters hand it was dirty with a foot print on it. I have photos. Likely the pulleys where not damaged.”

“Order was placed on line for collection. Was informed by email that it would be ready for collection in 1.5 hours. After a couple of hours I went to the Trade Counter but order had not been picked. Warehouse was phoned and told I was waiting. I still had to get the counter staff to chase again after about 15 minutes. Nobody seemed to be acting with any sense of urgency at all. I have never seen your staff move so slowly or with such little enthusiasm. Hardly "Rapid" Electronics.”

“I phoned to ask what process I should follow to allow me to get the Young Engineers Scotland negotiated discount and was told to place the order via email to sales (by a sales person) which I did. I then sent an email with the order in which I asked someone to contact me if this was not correct or there was information missing (30/1/17). But I had no response after two days. I emailed again (01/02/17) asking if I was following the correct process or if they needed any more information, but this email was ignored as well. After two weeks (15/02/17) I phoned sales again to complain and was told the emails would not have been ignored? So the person checked the original order and generated a pro forma invoice which I paid promptly and the order was dispatched that day. When the order arrived I realised that one item on the order was missing and one item sent twice, but that was partly my fault for not checking the pro forma thoroughly enough as the item was duplicated with two lines being repeated instead of the third item. I then ended up having to raise another order online immediately (without our discount) just to get the missing goods to arrive by the date I needed them. Altogether not a very smooth experience!”

“I had to return one of the items I bought. I contacted the customer service. After about a week I received an email that they take 20% handling charge and I have to pay for the post myself. I could buy the that item from Amazon, a bit more expensive, but at least I could return it without any hassle, or directly from the main company. No more shopping from Rapid.”

“Update. Rapid contacted me by phone after leaving previous feedback. They will not refund postage despite parcel going to wrong address. Yes it is human error but it isn't what I paid for and therefore should not be charged. I have had to compensate the neighbour with a box of chocolates and an apology for the trespass into her shed! UK Mail or Rapid should do the same for me. Its called a gesture of good will Rapid! UK Mail delivered my items to the wrong house........... number 11 is nothing like number 3 is it? Apart from that Rapid are ok but they could have refunded the delivery charge as the delivery was so poor.”
