MadBid

Waste of time and money, can buy items on line same price or cheaper and defiantly quicker, don't go there, had to give one start to leave review but not worth that.

Spent £50 on credits & used them all bidding but someone bid more then saw the end price they paid for a product was MORE EXPENSIVE than it could be bought elsewhere, DONT use this MADBID plan, they get £££'s in credit payments from unsuccessful bidders then sell the product dearer than other sellers, this is not a bargain auction!

I can't Imagine if we can get such expensive products at huge discounted prices. It's just like if Santa is offering Free gifts. With MadBid everyday is a Christmas

I can only say, AVOID. Whatever you do, stay away from this site, it is outrageous.

I am owed £1000, which should have been returned to me months ago. I have been promised responses then ignored. I was sent items that were not uk versions, therefore could not be sold on, the auto bids system does not work and I believe it appropriate to raise serious concerns and use the word "scam" here - I had multiple items with ongoing auto bids, credits to continue bidding therefore should have won the item, as explained to me when I contacted mad bids to ask why my auto bids were failing. I was told there would be an investigation as they had many careful experts monitoring bids and I should have won. This was many months ago and despite chasing and repeated promises of imminent response, nothing. I am now being ignored completely and am now having to pursue legal action.

The website suggests it has been featured in many newspapers including broadsheets, suggesting positive coverage. In fact the articles in many places warn of the dangers of this site.

Whatever you do, stay well away from this site.

I started in Madbid a couple of weeks ago, at the first moment I thought that I was to lose all but it was fun and I could buy a product that I wanted. At the end I can recomend it, it is good if you can take advantage of the bid of each product with your credits.

I tried out Madbid because a friend mentioned it. In my first tryout I won a Kindle 8! I was so happy when i found out! The cost of the kindle, even taking into acount the money I invested in the bet, was really low. So i recomend this site. Also, the delivery was without any problem. Thank you!

I PURCHASED CREDITS I WON NO AUCTION THEY ARE CONNING PEOPLE INTO THINKING ITS EASY TO WIN ANYTHING AFTER CHECKING MY BANK ACCOUNT MADBID TOOK £175 OUT OF MY ACCOUNT WHEN IT SHOULD OF BEEN £50 MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY ARE WELL AWARE OF THESE SCAMMERS AND HAVE STATED THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN DO NOT USE WWW.MADBID.COM!

Madbid.com, what a site... for starters yes it does work, I personally have won many times on auction
I understood it straight away.The support staff are very helpful if you have any questions.

Springing up all over the place are so called Auction sites, were you can purchase a £600 I phone for £30, well its possible if you are extremely lucky, but in the real world this is how it works, you purchase credit tokens to bid, I got 500 for £49.99 with an extra 500 bonus,
I decide to win a £49.99 keyboard, & started bidding, I didn't win the item as I ran out of credits, which means I paid out £49.99 if I had won it I would still have had to pay the Auction price which is now £13.56 + £8.99 shipping, as I was not the only 1 bidding & lost, this £49.99 keyboard has probably made Madbid £in excess of £300, this is an out & out con, you would have to be very lucky or cagey to get a deal, you certainly don't want to start the bidding & use lots of your credits, but in reality I would stick with finding a genuine deal on Ebay were you can make a bid of the most you would pay & let the Auction run, or as I do find the best buy it now price & get it straight away, do not use these sites, no matter how much you are told that someone saved, for every 1 person that got a bargain, 10 lost money, bookies love to shout about the 1 person that had a big win, its great for more business.

World gone MAD. Ridiculous prices for Must-Have items. People buying expensive items for next to nothing. Winning is easy. Learn the rules and start bidding. It's smiles all the way. No joke.

I'm glad I checked reviews of MadBid before using it! This article makes it sound too good to be true. Why would any company sell you things at a loss to themselves?! They wouldn't. There's always a trick.

I have won many auctions and love this site,
Customer service is brilliant and very helpful,
Madbid is all about being patient, having a strategy and using your bids wisely.

I won a 7 inch Tablet.
Shopping but with a twist of fun, use a strategy and only spend what you can afford. Can also be very time consuming
Can get so tense its crazy. I like it

I received a tablet from madbid which developed a fault.
Customer service (Edwin) resolved the problem (replacement) in a very efficient and speedy manner.

I thought i would try Madbid as I love ebay! But I was left feeling disappointed and ripped off:(
I registered £50 as that was the minimum. My introductory experience of bidding was confusing and I lost all my money very quickly and won nothing:(
Then I was offered £50 off a product in their discount store. This is the only way to get your £50 back by the way!. So after careful considerationI sent it on a camera BUT to my absolute horror at the point of check out I was charged the full price! I had no choice but to phone madbid and report the problem ( god only knows what that call cost me!)
They admitted there had been an error on their part and promised a refund within 5 days. This did not happen! AVOID MAD. BID IT IS A CLEVERLY ORGANISED CON!

I am facing huge delay in shipment of items... combo items ordered is getting partially delivered l. Items purchased using earned discount is delayed more than 2 months... there are even items which are more than 3 months old... items shown as shipped in site is not delivered... no tracking ids... multiple follow ups... same answer. Will check with delivery team and come back. As we cant keep a track of shipment... lost invoice and shipment charges is the result.
Madbid service response is getting average day by day... technically things work well. Like get notice when item is won, will get the invoice on email box, and finally waiting game starts... more than $1000 items stuck like this... feeling frustrated and no help... Is this case with others also...?
The differentiation which Madbid claims with other site is not there with their below average supply chain or intention! Not seeing regular bidders recently is an evidence and alternate/ almost daily bid sales, quality and price of items are going down continuous.
Hope the management corrects it for long term sustainability. Shouldn't end like US site..

Won quite a few products at good discounted price for e.g. Nikkon DSLR Camera 5500@ apprx. $ 100 i. E. approx Rs. 7000/- whereas MRP was Rs. ******* in India.

Also won Philips Blender, JSM Air Fryer and quite a few products on madbid.
Happy with the products as they are genuine

Please stay away from this blatant rip off site, I wish I had researched this site prior to parting with my hard earned cash but then the site was advertised on national TV so it can't be a rip off or so I thought, I closed my account after using part of the free credits I received when I joined expecting to get my money back, I mean the demo video tells you that you will get refunded right? Not so people they kept my money, avoid this rip off site like the plague, imagine going to an ordnary auction and at the end of it although you were outbid and didn't successfully win a bid the auctioneer gave you a bill for putting your hand up you would think he'd lost his marbles well that's exactly what this site does, every time you put your hand up to bid they take money off you, absolutely incredible they are allowed to trade/operate, they should be closed down

Never ever ever bother with this you will loose your money, virtually impossible to win anything without parting with more than the item's value in money for credits.

I read a number of reviews (should have read and researched more) and they said that the guardian, as well as other newspapers recommend this site. So being new I looked into this further and the site itself said that if you do not win on your first auction the. Madbid will refund you a maximum of 500 credits. So I bought £50's worth and started bidding. It's a scam not only did I not win although my bid of £110 on the item was greater than the successful winner of £109, I did not receive my 500 refunded credits for being a new customer who was not successful!
DO NOT JOIN AND WASTE YOUR MONEY

This is wonderful site i came to know few months back while searching for some thing on websites. I opened my account with MadBid and got extra (6 times for the price of 1) credits to bid for desired products which boosted my bidding power multi fold.

While i was bidding for the product i wanted, i realized that i may require more credits and good strategies to win the products that is when to enter/exit a bid, which item to select for bidding etc. Hence i first increased my bidding power by winning some treasure boxes and credit packs where you get thousands of credits for a very nominal price. Post this the land was mine. I chose the product (Phillips Food Processor) i wanted to bid and to my first surprise i ended up with the winning bid for the processor.

I still could not believe it anticipating it to be a fake online auction site till i received the food processor physically delivered to me at my address. I was just shocked. It was real. Can you believe it i just got it for $1.23 and double excitement was when i gave it to my wife who was wanting for it since long. When i told her the price i got it including the price of credits purchased she was like shocked.

It is really an amazing first experience i had with MadBid and would surely recommend guys to participate but wisely.

Thanks a ton to MadBid and MadBid Team.

Don't be sucked into this scam. Not sure how long ago it was that some of these fantastic bargains were to be had according to the adverts but they don't seem to be around now

£35 into my account.

Every time I try and bid on something "someone" else bids over me.

The minute I let the clock run down and don't bid, that "bidder" wins the item.

Complete scam!
