First the good. Samsung S20 did arrive and was as described. Bad news. Zero communication. Ages for delivery. Ugly. The price suggested this wasn't just a bargain new product but this "opened box"... See more

Out of pocket by £500 - buyer beware!

Ordered a phone costing £499.99 on 7th Jan. Got a text a couple of days later saying it would be sent on 15th Jan. Then on 11th Jan a text saying the order would be refunded as the company had suspended trading due to Covid. 4 weeks later and no refund received in my account. The seller sent screenshots purportedly showing a refund on 12th Jan but - funnily enough - like dozens of other reviewers on here, the money never turned up. Had to raise a dispute with my card company and if I get it back it will probably be another month without my £500. Also meant I missed an opportunity to buy the same phone elsewhere for a reasonable price in the meantime. Frustrating and disappointing experience - I would give them a wide berth if I were anyone else considering a purchase in the future.

Still waiting for my refund..

Returned phone late December, received by mimotek on 4th January, they acknowledged the return of the item, and 'issued' a refund. A month later still no refund.

Zero non automated communication from seller. Covid-19 is NOT an excuse for no communication, as stated in your other review responses, staff are working from home apparently, other companies manage this so why can't you?

Still £599 plus the cost of return postage out of pocket.

Reason for return was the mimotek sent out the wrong model phone. Shambolic company. Should also add that it took mimotek nearly a month to dispatch the phone to me. Wish I never purchased anything from mimotek.

Also the name on the please review us on trustpilot email was incorrect. so wouldn't trust them to manage your data in accordance to GDPR.

Absolute theives and con artists …

I have sent my daughter’s Samsung Galaxy Tab A in to either get fixed or replaced as it just died on her after barely 6 months of having it and I’ve not heard from these scam artists since, I’ve emailed them only to get an automated email back, they are taking peoples money and not getting back to them, total scam artists.

The worst company I have ever had the displeasure to deal with

Where do I even begin. I have so much to say so il keep it brief.

Bought a phone from miMotek. The phone was the wrong colour, didn't match the imei number on the box and came locked with another person's Google account on it. Red flags here about stolen phones, eh?

Tried calling them every single day for about a week after I got the phone. Nothing.

Tried leaving them multiple messages. Nothing

So the phone is now just a useless paper weight. Luckily I sorted it with a much better a legitimate phone company.

If your thinking about buying from these incompetent scam artists. Save your money.

I've read reviews and I seem to be a lucky one apparently. Some reviews of people not getting phones or sending them back for repair never to heard from mimo again

I can't seem to find your queries on our system, however if you email into sales@mimotek.co.uk, mark it to the attention of 'Marco' with reference 'TPR23273', I will personally look into your case for you and hopefully get any issues resolved!

I will look forward to hearing from you shortly.

Gone out of business

Used phone arrived in reasonable condition for the price - but the SIM tray was missing. Tried to contact them, automated message said they'd gone out of business.

Hi Myles,

Thank you for your review, I am sorry to hear about the issues you have faced with your order.

I am unsure where you read we have 'gone out of business' but I can assure you that this is not the case!

Our offices have been temporarily closed due to COVID restrictions, and customer service agents are operating from home but in a smaller capacity in order to resolve any issues.

We do not sell Brand New items, all of our items are graded hence the cheaper price point!

All of the details of our condition grades can be found on the products listing, and full details on our 'GRADING EXPLAINED' page here - https://mimotek.co.uk/what-is-refurbished/

However the item should've come with the correct parts, so we do apologise about this error!

If you email into sales@mimotek.co.uk quoting, mark it to the attention of 'Daniel' with reference 'TPR23173', I will personally get this investigated, and have any missing items sent out.

Kind regards,

Daniel

The phone is not working and even though both my husband and myself have tried to contact Mimotek for a replacement, they have never come back to me or my husband.
