Review of Tyreleader.ie

The ONLY way to update your tyres

If I had ordered these tyres from BMW I’d have paid a lot more for them and arguably would have had to wait a lot longer.

The tyres were at a level of value that tyres should be - not cheap, but not requiring a second mortgage either.

I took the option of having them delivered to a fitting service (Baker Automotive in Santry) and they contacted me once the tyres were received and booked me in for fitting on the spot.

Got them fitted on a Saturday a week after ordering. Fitting took 2 hours, during which time I walked to a local coffee shop. The tyres themselves are whisper quiet - I went for the best I could once I knew I was saving close to €1,000 on them.

I have already recommended Tyreleader and Baker Automotive to all my friends and family - as far as I am concerned, this is the ONLY way to update tyres.

Much more difficult than it needed to…

Much more difficult than it needed to be to buy a gift for a family member living in Edinburgh from Ireland. There are issues with the logic on your site confusing the purchaser address for the delivery address, particularly for the digital gift card.

Good if watching your weight

I have been using these drinks as part of a weight loss journey. They are low calorie but high in taste. I drink them with lunch, and this stops any craving for sugary foods between meals. Excellent after a workout too, to rehydrate quickly.

A little expensive, and subscriptions should be better discounted, but apart from that, really good.

Changed my order to an inferior wine…

Changed my order to an inferior wine without alerting me.

Without offering me a choice, this company changed the wine that I researched before buying as a gift, to an inferior vintage. I could have purchased the lesser vintage elsewhere at 75% of the cost I paid.

They offered no apology when I tackled them on it and offered a desultory “goodwill” gesture of refunding my delivery charge. I refused and asked for an apology. That was 2 days ago, so I expect I won’t be hearing from them.

In short, this company cannot be trusted not to swap what they have contracted for, for a different product, without letting you know. If I could give them zero stars for this untrustworthy behaviour, I would. I certainly would never buy from them again. I will be advising all of my friends and colleagues about their shoddy, shoddy service.

Review of vidaXL


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Reasonable product, terrible customer service, mounds of packaging!

Ordered a table. Quality on arrival was ok, but it was missing two bolts. I wrote to customer service and asked for the bolts. I went to the bother of being quite precise in what the issue was.

They sent me screws. 2 screws, in enough packaging to ship a modem or a small tool. Unbelievable waste.

This morning, in an equally appalling waste of packaging, they have sent me a further 2 screws. I did not ask for more screws. I’ve already sourced the bolts from elsewhere because I cannot deal with this level of incompetence. If they send me any more screws in tonnes of unnecessary packaging I will be seeking to charge them for handling it.

Beans packed separately!

Beans packed separately into a package almost the size of the final article. Took ages to clean up the spilt beans that resulted from us trying to fill the chair ourselves. End result was that due to loss the chair is not as full as it should be.

Final result is ok I guess, and my daughter likes it but it baffles me that the beans came separately- made the experience far more frustrating than it needed to be.
