    Tekheads cust service exceeded my expectations

    I thought I'd share the good experiences of online retailers rather than harking on about the bad ones all the time.

    I bought a B-grade Shuttle SN41G2 off Tekheads saving £50ish IIRC. It stated the mobo had been replaced (DOA return?). When I received it there were a fair few parts missing, nothing truly important (screws, cables, shim, 3.5" cover etc). I contacted them via email, since it was B-grade I expected them to tell me that's what I should expect, something even less useful or simply not reply at all - in line with plenty of online retailers. However I received a rapid response apologising and they quickly mailed me back saying they'd managed to scrape together most of the parts for me (even offered to order the rest from Shuttle). They did this even though it was probably the original customer who returned the DOA or DFA (dead from abuse) who had neglected to return all of the parts. Not only that but they sent it all to me at no cost to myself, next day! Top class customer service, again. I'd heard they were good and was very pleasently surprised.

    BTW I made no mention of forums or feedback! Anyone else have experiences that exceeded their expectation?

    Good Stuff...... these forums are usually flooded with people moaning about how poor service they have received from X retailer. It's nice to hear you have had great service from tekheads. I've always had a good service from them but ain't ordered anything from them for a while.

    Be sure to make a comment about this experience on HEXUS retailers.

    Ordered a Shuttle from them this year, had a fault with it and they collected it (instead of me having to pay to send it to them) and a new one was on my doorstep literally the next day.

    Yep, Tekheads are awesome.

    Better go write an entry in RR. It's what it's there for

    Yep have to agree Tekheads are by far the best for after sales that ive come across recently. Bought a Chieftec case from them, sent the wrong one out, took three trys but as they say third times a charm. Took 3 days but hey they tried and didnt fod me off so have to give them credit for that.

    I've ordered off tekhead twice now. Had a few problems with their website when ordering. But rang them next day. They were appologetic and polite. sorted it all out for me and the package arrived without fail the next day. Just ordered y mobo off them last week. Forgot to add my dvd writer. Rang them up on monday it was added to my order and came without fault on tuesday. Great site and helpful staff. Will use them again.
