I have ordered the item and I have my address. The item was sent to my old address and I have never received it. DHL did not help to recover the charger, so I emded up paying for something I never received.

Hello Stephen, Thanks for leaving a review with us. We are sorry to hear you are awaiting your parcel, this is never something we wish our customers to experience. Looking into this for you, we can see you contacted our Customer Service Team, when they looked into this for you, they had found that an incomplete address was provided and requested the parcel back to us. This is on the way back and a refund will of course be processed for you so you can remake the order to the correct address. If you wish to contact us further, you can do so here - https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/contact-us Kind Regards - PTW

Terrible Experience - Avoid! I ordered from Power Tool World because they offered next-day delivery, but a week later, my parcel still hadn’t arrived. To make matters worse, they then canceled my order entirely without providing any explanation. Getting my money back turned into a frustrating ordeal with unnecessary drama and poor customer service. This was a complete waste of my time and energy. If you value reliable service and professionalism, I’d recommend shopping elsewhere.

Hello Chris, Thank you for leaving a review with us. We’re sorry that your experience whilst shopping with us didn’t meet your expectations. Aftersales is a top priority for us so we’re keen to find out what went wrong. Upon investigating this, we can see that your order was out for delivery later than expected due to a delay within our courier’s network. Whilst this is never expected, our courier does deliver 97% of parcels correctly and on time and sometimes during the festive period, delays can be expected with issues beyond our control. You contacted our Customer Support Team to let them know you were raising a payment chargeback on your order and our team requested a return on your parcel because of this. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused by this delay and rest assured this isn’t our courier’s usual delivery service. If you’d like to discuss this further with us, please contact our Customer Support Team using our website here: https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/contact-us Kind regards - PTW

I had an awful experience at power tool world. Ordered a router on the 1st of December for my partners birthday. It was meant to be delivered on the second but there was info missing. I called on the second and made sure they had all the info to be delivered next day. On Wednesday it didn’t show up, I called power tool world they guaranteed me it would arrive on Thursday. Thursday came and gone, I called again, they assured me it would be here on Friday. Once again, Friday came and gone and the router never showed up. I had no birthday present for my partner. I finally escalated to the manager, which blamed DHL all along. In the end I cancelled it and got it from another place. Came the next day.

Hello Ines, Thank you for leaving a review with us. We're sorry that your order was unable to be delivered on time. This was originally caused by the incorrect delivery address being provided to us at the point of sale. Our courier delivers 97% of our parcels within the expected timeframe however on this occasion, your parcel was delayed after this address error was rectified. We're sorry for the inconvenience this caused you and your partner. As mentioned, we can see a refund was processed the same day you spoke with the Customer Service Team Leader to help prevent any further delay in getting a gift sorted. If you'd like to discuss this further with us, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Service Team here: https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/contact-us Kind regards - PTW

Hello Valentine, Thanks for leaving a review with us. We are truly sorry to hear you have had a negative experience with us; this is never something we wish for customers to experience. Looking into this for you, we can see our courier had some delays delivering to you due to the time of year and high volume of parcels going through the network, whilst we aim to dispatch and have our parcels delivered in the timeframe selected and do this 97% of the time, due to the time of year, delays can sometimes occur. We again truly apologise for the experience you have had with us and if you wish to contact us further on this, you can do so here - https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/contact-us Kind Regards - PTW

Very disappointed that Power Tool World did not live up to its statement that they would try to match a competitor’s price. I bought a hedge trimmer from PTW for £288.99, only to find that on the following day a competitor (Alan Watkins Ltd) were offering the identical product at 5% less, ie at £274.55. I contacted PTW who turned down my request for a price match. In future I shall never use PTW again. Trevor (Leicester).

Hello, Thanks for leaving a review with us. We are sorry you are not happy with the service we provided to you; this is never something we wish for customers to experience. Looking into this for you, we can see you contacted our Customer Service Team about our "Dave Prime Price Promise" that was active during the time of your purchase, we can see this was about a price match related to this however for an external company. Our "Dave Prime Price Promise" was to ensure that if our prices change, our customers get the lowest price we list. Whilst we try to price match with our competitors to the best of our ability, sometimes this is not always able to be actioned, you can of course always contact us with price match queries as our team are always looking to stay competitive.

Hello Kay, Thanks for leaving a review with us. We are truly sorry to hear you received a product not in perfect condition, this is never something we wish for customers to experience and is something we are keen to resolve. Looking into this for you, we can see a free-of-charge collection was made for you, upon this arriving back to us, the product was no longer able to be replaced, and a refund actioned instantly. Whilst we try to resolve this as required, sometimes this is not always able to be actioned due to stock levels, for this we are truly sorry.

I ordered a battery that didn’t arrive, courier company claimed it was refused at the door. I was given no explanation when I called to find out what happened. They refunded me but didn’t let me know. Zero communication so no stars.
