Powerland have been terrible to deal with. I have made two separate orders in a month. First order was for a Puretec font. The incorrect font was… Read more

sent out. They have told me the font must be returned prior to the correct font being sent out. This would be fine if I had a way of returning the font. The internet sales rep will not return calls. This is holding up gaining certification on our project.

Second order for a Stiebel Eltron hot water unit was stalled for two weeks. We are now told the item is damaged and will be another two weeks. Again cannot get rep to respond and am struggling to get a resolution. Worst purchasing experience I have ever had with terrible customer supprt.

I see a lot of positive reviews for Rushfaster, but unfortunately my experience has been the complete opposite her win New Zealand. The first issue… Read more

was a bag I purchased for around $300 (including shipping). After only four months of light use, the interior lining cracked and started to fail. Instead of being offered a refund, I was told I have to wait for the manufacturer to process a warranty claim. If it’s approved, the only options are a replacement bag or store credit with Rushfaster. I don’t think that’s fair, and I don’t think it’s an acceptable outcome for a faulty product.

The second issue happened around the same time. I purchased another bag, but due to a shipping or customs error, it was returned before it reached me. It then took several weeks to arrive, with lots of admin by which time the reason I had bought it had already passed. Ive not had this issue from any other international seller.

Based on these experiences, I won’t be using Rushfaster again. I don’t think it’s reasonable to deny a full refund on a product that has failed so quickly. Funny enough I now see they don';t stock this brand either so maybe that's why. Store credit isn’t useful when there’s nothing else I want to buy from the retailer.

Lesson learned. If you have the option of buying locally, through Amazon, or directly from the manufacturer, I’d recommend doing that instead of Rushfaster.

Terrible customer service – We ordered a window display for our office which was supposed to be 3 x A4 wide and 4 high. When it arrived the rails weren't wide enough for the… Read more

display and the wires had to angle out to go around the display. I figured they'd sent us rails for a portrait display instead of the landscape we ordered. Contacted support, dealt with [Name Removed]. At first told us our windows weren't wide enough. I sent him our window measurements which were wider than required. Then told us to just have a 2 wide display. I told him if I wanted a 2 wide display that's what I would have ordered. I told him I just wanted the metal rails that the display hangs off to be wide enough and fit for purpose. So then he told me to cut them to make them fit, so I asked he was going to pay to have that done, no reply to that. He then told me that "if I like" I could send the whole lot back for a refund. We'd spent hours unpacking, taking off wrapping tape, bubble wrap etc from the 10 boxes it all came in. Now he doesn't respond at all. We would never ever use this company again, and we will be warning our group not to use them. Terrible customer support Update- received an email from [Name Removed] the next morning. Hey Doug, would you like me to cut a rail for you and send it over. [Name Removed] if you cutting is as bad as your customer service it'd be useless anyway

can not call mighty ape on a phone. They have not attempted to contact me, and I am now getting very frustrated, as I am in a loop with no people. So not purchase from them, shop local, as you have no recourse if your item is not delivered. I paid at least two weeks ago, and no item, nothing, and no mention why, or a refund even, as requested. Beware as you can not talk to anyone, and mighty ape just send a request to the retailer, so no help at all, they have my money, I have no item. SHOP LOCAL OR ACCEPT PAYING AND GETTING THE RUN AROUND UN A LOOP IF MISERY. shop local, shop local shop local!!!!!

Bought mobility scooter order number 17-14463-33962 Was to be delivered on April 20 but arrived unexpectadly early on April 10. Unfortunately the… Read more

truck driver decided to dump the 100 kg unit from the back of the truck without using the unloading platform. On opening the box it appeared the plastic covers were cracked. We decided to request a replacement, filled in the requested form and supplied photo's. Initially they offered a refund of $ 200 if we accepted the scooter as is and increasing the offer to $500.00. We didn't accept this as we did not know if there was more damage done to the unit. So requested a replacement. A week after the delivery the scooter was collected for return. 3 days after collection I asked for status and reply was that item was not received yet and that after receipt it would take 4 - 8 days to assess the damage (It took us 10 minutes t make this assessment including unstrapping the package , opening the box and take photo's). Now 10 days after the scooter was collected for return we can't get information when we will receive the replacement and they even don't bother anymore in answering my emails. So if I don't today, 4th May, get a sensible reply I will innitiate a full return of the purchase price either through ebay or PayPal.

Buyer Beware! Ubuy ripped me of AUD$ 50! My last order placed delivered in late Jan 2026 was delivered short x1 unit. I immediately reported the… Read more

shortfall, by email, after opening the parcel, and included a photo of the inside of the box and its contents ( being x3units). I appropriately requested a refund for the missing unit which was never forthcoming. I followed this up again in May 2026, and Jun 2026, I only received a generic email, no refund, no apology. I posted a review on Trust Pilot and lo and behold UBuy responded stating that they had delivered all x4 units, which is a complete fallacy. This is disgraceful customer service, particularly given that the order prior to this one was also delivered short of a couple of units and an order prior to that one was delivered with a handful of units broken due to inappropriate packaging. I did not receive all x4 units, I only received x3 and UBuy should have honoured a refund because failure to do so is THEFT. Will never shop with them again! Order no. 182601123210.

so I re-entered them but stupidly didn’t check the total before confirming and was charged $69.99. When I realised that same morning I immediately sent an email but the reply was it would take 2 days for a response so I rang to cancel the order but was told ‘already picked/packed and sent for dispatch so nothing can be done.’ I was then told the jumpers were never $48.99 but that is untrue. I contacted the sales team but just kept receiving unhelpful ‘nothing could have been done’ but the items had not been dispatched when I called. Of course I can return them at my cost but that would make them even more expensive. I have bought many items from Innovations over the years but never again.
