Top Critical Review

“Rubbish company”

Martin W.
12/9/20

Rubbish company ordered two scooters, got one delivered, that's when issues started out of stock for the second one, was told the next week, that week arrived nothing, told a week later, still nothing, now have been told another week. So no contacting my bank and paypal to get my money back. Awful company to deal with lies after lies. Will also be contacting trading standard's regarding this fiasco.

They will not respond. It takes weeks to resolve simple issues. And they buy 5star reviews by offering a 5% off coupon

Tip for consumers:
Buy local

Hallo

I left some days to pass before submitting my review in case i'll calm a little bit but unfortunately my experience keep betting worst. I'll split my review to two sections, first for the geekbuying service and second for the product.
So i checked price, availability and delivery cost for the item i needed (mi notebook air 13" i7) and find that it is only stock in Hong Kong warehouse. I placed my order/ pay and wait. The very next day i receive a mail stating that it is necessary to provide 1) Front and Back Pictures of your Credit Card 2) Pictures of Your Identification Proof ( ID card / Passport). I send to them without delay and wait again. Next day another mail "Could you send your id card or driver license picture too". I complained that this is unacceptable and that i do not see the need to provide all this personal info but i would provide anyway. Another day passed and they replied "will prioritize process your order to the next step". Then silence for 3 days. I send them reminders but nothing. Suddenly i got a mail" The item is out of stock". I was furious. It took them 7 days to check their stock. I tried to get in touch by mail or telephone with someone but without any luck. Item still in stock on their site. 2 days later i got an automated msg with my DHL track number. I do not know if this is the kind of customer service they want but in any case i'll stick to amazon and gearbest as i used to. I don't think that the lower price by 20 or 40 usd justifies this behavior.
Now let's talk about the product. Mi notebook air 13" i7. Package arrived in good condition. But... i have 3 major issues with the pc. 1)battery life. They say that it could last up to 8 1/2 hours but i can get only up to 3 1/2 - 4 hours of Internet surfing and video streaming.and only 1-2 hours of gaming. When i say gaming i talk about really basic staff like card-games with minimum requirements 2)fan rattling. There is a strange noise. The fan probably is not fitted correctly and now is touching somewhere. VERY annoying. 3)whole pc freezes randomly.

That's my review

Regards
Nikos

Horrible customer service.!

Wintel Pro W8 PRO Intel Z8300 Windows 10 4K MINI PC 2G/32G 802.11b/g/n LAN Bluetooth4.0 HDMI H. 265

Hardware is great. The little boxs runs smoothly.
WINDOWS 10 is not an authorized copy!
The hardware is great, I love it. Runs KODI like a charm. However it is advertised as a Windows 10 mini PC with Windows. It has a "copy" of Windows on it. It works for about 3-4 weeks and then you constantly get messages that you do not have an authorized copy of windows. Geekbuying will not help me with this at all. They admitted it is a copy and not authorized. However they will not get me an authorization code. Their offer to me is a 5.00 coupon and a 5.00 refund! I was sold a PC that was suppose to have an authorized OS on it. It doesn't. This is false advertising at it's best! Geekbuying has lost my business as well as so many more that I will tell about this. Also Microsoft will be hearing about this as well.

Hi I purchased a couple of multi media boxes on the 4/08/2017 from this shower and paid extra for DHL delivery within 5 days the goods didn't arrive until the 21/08/2017, in addition I had to pay an additional import duty fee of £17.00 and when the units did arrive one was clearly faulty.

I contacted their after sales team via email and was asked to take pictures and a video if possible and send these to them, which I did straight away, I have now received the following email.

Dear Stephen,

Sorry about the problems you get, and please return this defective item to us,

We will replace a new one for you if there is no scratch or damage on the appearance.

Please back up or delete all: data, pictures, contacts, software or other information that is contained on the Product prior to shipping to the Authorized Service Provider and remove any PIN, Password or any other functions that are blocking access to device. We are not responsible for any lost data or other information.

About the shipping, please pay attention to the following:

1. Send back the item WITH the original box, cables & charger

2. Choose the cheapest regular airmail with tracking number ( NO DHL, NO UPS or other fast shipping, as it's very hard for us to do the clearance in HK custom( not as easy as your country) and it will take 2 weeks or even longer to plus the high tax).

3. Please print the attached authorized paper out and fill in the information ( ORDER NUMBER & the problems),

4. Pack the item carefully with bubble and make sure it wont be damaged during the shipping, declare the package as "Gift " and value under $30 if you can.

For items needed to be refunded, there should be no scratch or any damage on the appearance, or else GeekBuying has to charge customers 20% of the item amount for restocking.

5. Inform us the tracking number after you send and we will inform you when it arrives.

Here is the Return Address attached, pls kindly check and read it carefully.

Any further questions pls feel free to tell us.

Best regards

Bella

My response is simple I will contact my credit card company and make an official complaint to get my monies returned and my best advice never ever consider purchasing Anything from this company Ever!
