Very poor in every aspect

Very poor in every aspect . You could purchase a street of houses easier. No handover of vehicle , the girl from accounts had to demonstrate how to open the bonnet . Would I return ?, not a cat in hells chance. Very little interest shown apart from the first entrance to look at car availability.

This Brilliant Company , totally trustworthy experience gets better

This experience gets better . Last week I sold my iPhone to music magpie on a Monday , my money entered my account on the Wednesday. I sold my second phone a week later to music magpie and within 24 hours of checking out my phone my money again entered my account. The first sale to me was a test to prove magpie out . They passed with flying colours. A brilliant company to do business with , they are the real deal . Follow my footsteps you can trust music magpie implicitly.

Quite an unbelievable experience to be honest . I was given a very good price for my iPhone on the Sunday, I posted the phone on the Monday , and received my money in my bank on the Wednesday. It doesn’t get any better than that . I’m delighted and will return to music magpie again .

Payment method superb

Payment method superb . Customer service with queries to answer ok . Price offered pretty fair . Price on inspection poor . Sold 2 iPhones 14s to you less than 12 months old . Bought the wife one of those 2 sold and she couldn’t get to grips with so we put it back in the box after 2 days of use . You dropped the price by £60.00 because it wasn’t excellent after 2 days of use. We’re both in our late 70s and never go out to misuse it . Wouldn’t return to you I’m afraid.

Hello, 

I’m sorry to learn that your experience was not positive.

We are happy to learn that the payment for your order was received without any difficulties. 

We are always willing to assist you to the best of our ability with any enquiries that are brought to our attention. Please rest assured that the service you’ve received will be investigated. We are truly sorry for any added frustration and concern your experience with our team has caused.

Our prices are calculated with numerous factors in mind. They are driven by a number of sources and algorithms which allow us to offer a live and competitive price for items entered into the basket.

This is mainly based on supply and demand at the time of selling however, we do have to take into consideration additional costs incurred such as the refurbishment of devices and processing costs. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer more than the initial offer.

Looking into your order, I can see that our technical assessment team has found light cosmetic wear upon assessment. If you are unsure as to what the revision reason means, you can find out more about this by following the link - https://www.musicmagpie.co.uk/tech-regrade

We can assure you that handle all items with the utmost care. We have senior members of management observing at all times, and they must approve all revisions provided. We have strict internal procedures and policies which must be adhered to if an item suffers any damage in our possession, including paying in full automatically.

I can confirm that there are no signs of any tampering or damage within transit when the item arrived with us. Due to this, the faulty price is the maximum amount we can offer on this occasion. We understand this is not the response you had hoped for and we are terribly sorry for the disappointment this has caused. We must assure you that we try our best to match all originally quoted prices but it was not possible at this time.

I can confirm that the   revised offer was accepted and the payment was processed on 02/03/2024. Typically, it takes 24 working hours for the payment to clear in your account. However, please note that the actual timeframe may vary depending on the bank you are using. We recommend allowing 1-3 working days for the payment to be fully processed.

As a valued customer, we’re sorry that it hasn’t worked out on this occasion, and trust that we are able to meet your expectations with your next order.

Kind regards
Ziggy

Not out of habit but out of common sense I only purchase my electric/ electronic items from Curry’s. Not only do you get great offers but the staff help with technical issues when things either needing first time set up or troubleshooting.

Excellent experience again selling to…

Excellent experience again selling to music magpie . You get the best price around and the process is easy to follow . They are experts in their field . The only downside is you have to rely on their chat line to communicate . But it does work to be fair but a telephone number would be an advantage.

Purchased a rug online

Purchased a rug online. Could only purchase this rug using that method , unable to purchase in the store , or collect after purchasing online , only home delivery. I telephoned customer service to ask if not suitable the return process. The agent said you don’t return to your local store we collect from the delivery address. Later during the day I telephoned customer service again regarding another rug and without asking the agent said that if not suitable you take to your local store. Very confusing to say the least and still I don’t know .

Brilliant company

I have recently sold to music magpie 2 iPhones . I got the best price around by far and their technique of receiving the phones is second to none. Brilliant customer service and an experience I wish to others that want to deal with the top outfit .

From my dealings with music magpie I have to admit they are a first class honest company to do your business with . The advice i was given by friends to sell or buy through music magpie was good advice . I would strongly advise anyone reading this to do the same . They will not be disappointed.

Review of Triton Showers


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Leon , excellent advisor.

Leon , the agent on the other end of the phone was excellent . The shower I wanted was no longer available. Leon helped me technically to choose an alternative that would fit as close to the shower that was replaced . The Omnicare shower is beautiful, so quiet and a great buy . But after all it is a Triton .

The salesman was excellent in every way . Certainly new his stuff and gave great advice. Purchased an excellent settee that I needed desperately and the salesman gave his word it would be delivered as to our plan and his promise. Tomorrow all these promises must materialise and I will really know how good they are. I do not doubt the promise given is accurate and truthful. Michael smith
