Written by the company

We specialize only in remote controls development, selling and repairs. Serving the whole of Europe since 2009. ....................................................................... Unusual atypical remotes are easy for us!! Seriously, we can create any remote control for every device, with the same functions and the same button names as original RC! .............................................................................. Thousands models of brand original remote controls in our stock. .................................................................................. We only want positive reviews and we will do everything for that. If you are not satisfied with our product, please give us a chance to solve the problem before giving us a bad rating. As manufacturers, unlike resellers, we can analyze the problem, reprogram the product, or recommend another model/type (exchange is free!). Please understand that the development and production of a compatible replacement part is much more demanding than an easy "buy-sell" business model. A replacement remote control must not only be of high quality but, most importantly, must be COMPATIBLE with the product. If your remote control is not working, it is usually because it is a wrong incomatible type, not because it is defective. ................................................................................... Do not hesitate to contact us anytime on orders@remote-control-world.eu. We answer within 24 hours. If you need an immediate answer ask our experienced technician (no chat bot) in the online chat on our website 9 a.m - 9 p.m. .............................................................................. Pls note: on Mondays we are more busy (we deal with inquiries from the weekend) and we are not able to answer emails within 24 hours as usual. It's better to ask on the online chat on Monday if you can't wait.

Remote for a samsung TV

The remote came wuickly and it was easy to find a suitable one.
The remote itself doesn’t work as well as the previous ones. Some of the buttons feel weird and spongy.
This is a second time I ordered from here.

Trustworthy

Philips TV remote control was exactly as presented on a website. It is compatible with my Philips TV.
The only reason not to give 5 stars is the fact that delivery time to Sweden is a bit longer in comparison with my other orders within the EU.

Illuminated Sony Remote

Best price and excellent service from RCW. Remote was dispatched promptly and arrived quickly and well-packed. I'm very pleased with it - smart-looking, metal-finished and illuminated - much better than the old plastic one and works perfectly.

Quick support and the remote works great

I ordered a programmed TV remote. It took about a week for the programming until it was shipped out, which was a bit longer than I expected, but the result was worth the wait.

When I had a small issue getting it started, Ondřej from customer care provided quick and clear troubleshooting steps that solved it immediately. I’m happy with the service and the product.

Just a fantastic experience

fantastic from start to the remote arriving with me. I thought my old Cambridge Audio Amp was heading to the recycle centre, the remote was playing up and made using the amp very difficult. a replacement was not available from Cambridge audio then I spotted this on a google search, It was easy to select the remote I needed from the website, with a picture of the original unit to compare. I selected the UPS for delivery and didn't expect it to arrive on time at Christmas. It was actually due the day before! but a serious road traffic accident blocked access to my house for over three hours. Thinking my delivery would be left till after Christmas but the next day at 08:30 the remote was delivered. Works far better than the original, so I am very happy.

Dear Dean,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
We’re truly happy to hear that everything worked out so well and that the replacement remote brought your Cambridge Audio amp back to life. It’s great to know our website made it easy to find the right remote and that the delivery exceeded your expectations—especially during the busy Christmas period and despite the unexpected circumstances.

We’re delighted that the remote works even better than the original and that you’re very happy with it. Thank you for sharing your experience and for choosing us!

Several times I requested for a manual for my ordered remote control. Without that I can't use it.
The received overview with buttons is NOT a manual. It is not complete.
What a bad buy.

Reply from Remote Control World

Dear Customer,

We are sorry to hear about your difficulties using the remote control. Please note that the manual for your remote control was sent to you several times.

Regarding any other manual, as we previously explained: there is no separate manual available. Replacement remote controls are generally considered parts for the devices they operate, and additional manuals are not typically provided. The manual you may be looking for is included with the original device for which the remote was purchased.

We hope this clarifies the situation and appreciate your understanding.

Best regards,

Good remotes

Very happy with the products I received, they contacted me after placing the order to make sure they would send me the correct remote control for our tv. Great service, but only thing was that it took a couple of weeks between ordering it, to it being sent, so give yourself plenty of time if you are getting one as a present for someone.
I would use this company again.

Good all around.

After receiving helpful information over their website and email, I sent in my 30-year-old broken remote control.
I perceived VAT Remote Control World as well versed, multilingual, with quick response times, a wide range of services, reasonable offerings, and professional order processing. Finally, I got back my old remote control, working fine again.
