Amazing service

We have a problem with our floor head forecourt Vax, I contacted Vax via WhatsApp and was connected to Amanda. I explained the situation, she asked me to try something which didn't work. So she immediately ordered us a new part under my guarantee. Fantastic service

I had a great experience with Vax…

I had a great experience with Vax customer service. Brian was fantastic and really helpful in resolving my issue. He was friendly, professional, and got everything sorted quickly. My replacement battery is already on its way, which is great. Thank you, Brian, for your excellent help and customer service!

Shocking warranty service

Shocking warranty service – apparently proof of purchase isn’t enough

I’m genuinely appalled by the way VAX has handled my warranty claim.

My SpotWash developed a fault and I contacted VAX within the one-year warranty period. I have proof of purchase clearly showing when and where the machine was bought, yet I’ve effectively been left with a broken machine and told my warranty cannot be honoured.

Why? Because the serial-number sticker is no longer attached to the machine.

The sticker appears to have come off during normal use. If this small sticker is apparently so crucial that losing it can render a warranty worthless — even when a customer can provide valid proof of purchase — then perhaps VAX should consider putting the serial number somewhere permanent on the actual machine.

At the very least, customers should be CLEARLY warned when purchasing or registering the product that if this sticker comes off, they could potentially lose their warranty. I certainly don’t recall any prominent warning telling me to photograph or preserve a sticker because my proof of purchase might otherwise count for very little.

What makes the whole experience worse is the complete lack of empathy or any meaningful attempt to find a reasonable solution.

I have two babies at home, including a 10-week-old newborn, and I’m now left without a working SpotWash. After explaining my circumstances, VAX’s solution was to offer me a discount code to spend even more money buying another one.

Seriously?

With the cost of living as it is, suggesting that someone simply purchases another machine when they’ve already paid for a product that has failed within the warranty period is hardly a satisfactory resolution.

I wasn’t asking for special treatment. I was asking VAX to stand behind a product I purchased in good faith and a warranty claim I raised within the relevant timeframe.

Instead, I’ve been left feeling completely dismissed. There seems to have been very little consideration of the evidence I can provide, the circumstances surrounding the missing sticker, or the fact that the product failed within the warranty period.

A warranty should give customers confidence that a company will support them when something goes wrong. This experience has achieved the exact opposite.

Extremely disappointing customer service and an incredibly upsetting experience from a brand I expected far better from. I would seriously think twice before purchasing another VAX product after seeing how little support there can be when you actually need to rely on the warranty.
