Subdial are cool

There are lots of organisations who offer similar sounding services, but Subdial offer a superior service. The website is clear and the staff are very helpful (thank you Alex). The Farringdon venue is near transport links and I like going there. The cash proposals are reasonable, and you don’t get fobbed off with silly and greedy offers. Bravo Subdial!

Thank you for your feedback on the scheduling issue, Mark, I appreciate it wasn't the smoothest interaction and can only apologise for the miscommunication on timings. I have emailed you separately as we would love the opportunity to turn this experience around.

Really excellent experience all round

Really excellent experience all round. I did a 'trade in' and it was a very smooth, very easy experience, with a good price offered compared to other options. Collection from my house was very easy and it all felt very trustworthy. Rob and the rest of the team were all great to deal with!

I have dealt with Subdial form all sides - exchange, outright purchase and sales. They’ve always displayed a very high level of professionalism in all our transactions. Watches have come in as described and any issue, and they have been very few, have been expeditiously and satisfactorily dealt with.
