I always look for CD's which aren't always easy to find and Record Hub usually has them with both price and delivery being of an exemplary standard. I should probably move on from CD's but they are wh... See more

They took my money

I ordered a digital gift card but didn't receive it. I contacted Record Hub by email and social media and haven't received a reply to my queries. No shortage of emails from Record Hub with latest offers or asking for reviews though.

Hi there,

We are very sorry for the issue with your order.

Unfortunately, we experienced a technical problem affecting the delivery of emails containing digital gift cards, which resulted in some customers not receiving their gift card emails. We understand how frustrating this must be and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Our IT team is currently working closely with our gift card provider to identify the root cause and implement a fix as quickly as possible. We expect the issue to be resolved shortly.

In the meantime, our Customer Support team will contact you directly and work with you to resolve the issue manually, and make sure you receive your gift card without further delay.

Regards,
The Record Hub Team

I ordered a €50 digital gift card for a birthday present and never received the card, code or instructions. It's showing as 'processing' when I check via where's my order on the website.

I've contacted support via the form on the website numerous times and haven't gotten a response. I commented on social media posts asking for help, they just delete their actual post rather than reaching out to get my issue resolved.

The only reason I commented on social media is because there's no other way of contacting them.

I had a bad experience with them a couple of years ago with the Fast Way delivery debacle. This will probably be my last time dealing with them.
