Great service from knowledgable staff

Unbiased, honest & friendly staff. I didn't feel pressured to close out the purchase, I wasn't upsold and I walked away with a new & serviced Brompton 35 minutes later. Use your LBS or lose it!

5 star service

The best way ( in my opinion ) to gage the quality of a retailer, is the after sales service. 5 stars

I was surprised by the incredibly fast delivery. It was literally a surprise. 

The product arrived safely and most of all, I am very satisfied with the quick delivery. I'm going to order from here again.

However, unlike other shopping sites, I felt uncomfortable that there was no way to check my order status in My Page.

Very pleased customer

Very quick delivery. Good choice of product at a very good competitive price. No hesitation in recommending company and would use them again. The only criticism I have is that I didn't receive a despatch notification. I have checked my spam folder and haven't missed anything. This is not a deal breaker - order came within 3 days so no problem.

Very poor customer service from this shop

Worst service from this shop of all the online dealers. Second time for me that Fudges hasn’t had the irems in stock when they indicate on the website that they do. After the items weren’t dispatched on one-day service I had to write to them first to find this out - they didn’t deign to inform me themselves that they didn’t have the stock. Lesson learned: don’t ever believe that they have stock available when they indicate availability on the website.

Great service - thanks!

Collected my bike today, had some great advice from Mike, and decent help from the tech with a couple of things.
Would travel ther again for help, and similar purchases.

Not the worst experience but...

Ordered latest model of a bike which their website said was in stock. Had to chase them up after hearing nothing for 7 days. It turned out they only had a previous model in stock. After 7 weeks of waiting and still no date for new models delivery (suppliers fault not fudges). Fudges then offered me a reasonable discount on the old model (only reason I’ve given them 3 stars). When I asked them the difference between the new model and the one they had in stock they said there was a small difference on the frame design. However when it arrived there were at least 2 other components on the new model which weren’t on mine. Wouldn’t recommend or use them again.

In response to Fudges reply: I originally bought the latest model on your website for £850 and you sold me the older model for £700 so not sure where you got £300 discount from. I wasn’t that unhappy with the other bike, just that the service should have been better for what is a considerable amount of money to me.

Sorry to hear your not happy. We did everything we could to get you a bike. (There is still none of these bikes in the UK and wont be until october )
We gave a £300 (30% discount) , the accessory of the Rackstand (that is not on the older model) which can be fitted to your bike cost £100.
You could of also returned the bike if you were unhappy

3 stars is about right

3 stars is about right. Initial order was unsuitable for my bike, due to advertising error, and in any case lacked fittings necessary. Adrian was very helpful in advising on return/refund process, as these were not included either. He also offered to research an appropriate alternative product. I would not let the overall experience prevent me considering future purchases from this dealer.

Good people to buy from.

Good people to buy from.
Price was best I could find and then they delivered to the Isle of Man for a not too excessive charge and got it there in 48 hours.
Very clear on messages and communications, I would recommend them again and again.
