It is a very easy website to order components. Good range of items available. The best part is that the stock levels at various branches seem to be accurate. Staff at Fulham very helpful.

Utterly useless
Utterly useless. The staff are so slow they couldn’t even catch a cold. They just don’t care, are lazy and don’t give a damn about customers. Every time you go into the branch it takes way too long. They have no urgency and no regard for you at all. Avoid at all costs. Fulham branch in Chelsea. Manager can’t be bothered to meet you either.
Update - I provided my details and had a conversation with a manager who was going to speak to the branch and come back to me. Never heard from him again!

Thank you for your review and feedback Sophie.
We are extremely sorry that on this occasion we have not provided you with an acceptable level of service, please accept our sincere apologies.
I am afraid no contact details are provided against this review or an order reference for me to obtain your details, so we are unable to get in contact with you by phone or email, please could you e-mail customer.services@cef.co.uk with your contact details and that this is in reference to a Trustpilot review and one of our CEF team will contact you by return to discuss this issue.
Best Regards
