Rated 4 out of 5 stars

My original order was not delivered. Turned out the courier was at fault. Subtel contacted me and offered to send me another one. They did. So top marks to subtel. Impressive customer service.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Item was delivered on time and in good condition. The glass is a little loose in the frame so it can rattle a bit, I am not sure if this will be a problem?

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The item was delivered promptly and I was kept informed of its progress throughout. The package was well-sealed, the item exactly as described in the advertisement. I was impressed!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Quick service and delivery. Notified throughout from the initial order, to dispatch to delivery. The product is everything I wanted. Thank you!

If I could give no stars at all I…

If I could give no stars at all I would.
Having ordered a battery for my TomTom Go 5000 on 14th May from Subtel, it was not as advertised, the correct one for my machine.
I watched an online video on how to remove the old battery and gained the exact details of the correct battery.
I returned that first one and, as I needed to use my Sat Nav, I re-ordered one with the exact number and description needed. I had now paid for both batteries.
When the second one came it was nothing like the correct one pictured on Subtel's site being tiny and wrong in every sense.
I rang the company and was told not to send that back but to send photos of the one it should have been and the one received.
I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING SINCE, NO APOLOGY, AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED A REFUND FOR EITHER BATTERY.
I have since bought the correct one from elsewhere.
This matter has been ongoing for over 5 weeks now. The cost of both batteries and return of the first total £49.90.

I missed the DPD delivery by 20…

This is a scam company. I’ve always had extremely good service from DPD and I don’t think Subtle uses them. I was told I missed my DPD delivery but received no notice at the door, Subtel said the parcel was delivered to a holding station 1hrs commute from where I live - again a scam no one leaves a parcel for collection in London on the opposite side of the city. subtel have stopped commutating and have not reimbursed my money. Do look at the distribution of reviews of this company, the number of 5s and 1s is very unusual. I would believe the 1s! It makes me think that the 5 star reviews are not real! In response to the comment from Subtel below - it is dated 28th June nearly 30 days after delivery - it is now 16th of July and no further correspondence - so this is getting so late that I don't believe they will ever refund my money - over £30 waisted!

Hello,

We are sorry to read that DPD couldn't deliver. The parcel was sent to a pick up point. As soon as it is sent back, we will be able to refund.

Replacement battery for my Garmin Edge…

Replacement battery for my Garmin Edge arrived as promised. Would have preferred a product made in Germany or at least outside China. The label was on the wrong side of the battery which could have been a bit confusing but other than that all was good.

Subtle for batteries and chargers

Subtle also known as Cellonic are a very efficient company who provide excellent products such as batteries and battery chargers. I have purchased two such chargers in the last two years and they are excellent and reliable. Their chargers also give a digital reading so we know how much of a charge a battery is holding at any given time .They have a large stock of batteries and chargers for many types of electrical goods which in my experience are as good if not better than original brand names .
Subtle are highly recommended by myself
