Good Service and Speedy Delivery

Ordering through the website was simple. The price of the items was very reasonable as was the postal fees. A telephone number was provided should you need to contact the company. I did need to phone to check on when my purchase would be deliverd and was pleasantly surprised to hear an actual person on the other end of the line instead of an AI bot. I was informed that fresh stocks were due in that day and my order woulkd be shipped the next day latest. As it was I received the goods via DHL in the early afternoon of the day after my call. Very pleased with the goods and service provided.

Product location

As there are so many electrical items that look the same, Charlotte was very helpful to contact the manufacturer to locate the exact item I was looking for. I was lost otherwise so thanks for that :)

This cannot be the normal service...

Next day delivery took 5 days with, frustratingly, the wrong part being delivered. Lady in office very helpful however and correct part did arrive the following day. Guy I had lined up to fit it wasn't best pleased though, understandably. I won't write here what he said...

Antwoord van The Electrical Counter

Hi Derek,

We’re very sorry that your delivery took longer than normal—and doubly sorry that, after the wait, we sent the wrong part. That certainly isn’t our usual standard.

We’re glad our sales office was helpful and managed to get the correct part to you the following day. Please pass our apologies on to your electrician as well; judging by your comment, it’s probably just as well you spared us the full, unedited version of his feedback!

Thank you for your patience and for giving us the opportunity to put things right.

Non existent stock advertised

They advertised something, a silver Saxby track pendant adaptor, as being available from stock.
They had no stock.
They then discovered it was discontinued so they couldn't get one.
After three days they cancelled the order and I has to wait for a refund to process.
And they never apologied once.
USELESS COMPANY.

We’re very sorry to have let you down on this occasion.

Our stock records showed that the pendant adaptor was available, but when our warehouse team went to pick it, they discovered that the shelf was unfortunately bare. We immediately tried to obtain a replacement from Saxby, only to learn that the product had been discontinued.

Product ranges can change very quickly and, occasionally, discontinuation information does not reach us before an order is placed. Nevertheless, the accuracy of our website and the way your order was handled remain our responsibility.

We’re particularly sorry that you didn’t receive a proper apology from us at the time. You absolutely should have done. We fully understand your disappointment and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience, the delay and the additional wait for your refund.

I have purchased electExcellent Service and Reliable Every Time ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐rical switches…

I have purchased electrical switches and accessories from The Electrical Counter several times, and my experience has always been excellent.

Their online ordering process is very easy and straightforward, the service is fast and efficient, and my most recent order arrived within about a week, securely packed and exactly as expected.

Everything went smoothly from placing the order through to delivery. I have always been very satisfied with their service and will definitely continue purchasing from them in the future.

Highly recommended for their reliability, excellent service, and easy online shopping experience.

Good price but delivered late

Pricing was main reason to use EC. Apart from the late delivery which was disappointing, everything else was fine. When I talked to Charlotte in customer service, she was quick to investigate. Parts delivered next day.

Good experience overall

Easy to use website. I would have appreciated a proactive email update when my delivery was not going to be as quick as anticipated.

Good prices, prompt service and were happy to split the delivery when one item wasn't in stock for immediate delivery.

In my experience


In my experience, I ordered a black ceiling pendant. Pretty simple. I received a white one. I waited a while to get it also and I couldn’t do much in my kitchen after dark as I needed a new ceiling pendant. So as I was desperate for light in my kitchen I couldn’t wait another 5 days for a replacement so I opted to stick with the one they sent me. They also wanted me to package the one they sent me and go to my post office with details they send me via email. I’m a busy person so I don’t have time for all that faffing about. But maybe this is a one off error, and I’ll say the lady on the phone was very helpful. But I’d not use this company again for something I need in a hurry. I’d suggest Amazon.

Antwoord van The Electrical Counter

Hi Nicholas,

Thank you for your balanced feedback. We’re very sorry that you ordered a black pendant and received a white one, particularly after waiting for the delivery and needing to restore the lighting in your kitchen urgently. We completely understand why waiting several more days for a replacement wasn’t practical.

We also appreciate that being asked to package and return the incorrect item felt like additional work created by our mistake. Although we’re pleased that our colleague was helpful, we should have supplied the correct product in the first place and made resolving the problem as straightforward as possible.

Please accept our sincere apologies. This fell short of the service we aim to provide, and we’re very sorry to have lost your confidence on this occasion.

Antwoord van The Electrical Counter

Hi Angela,

We’re very sorry that we sent you the wrong plugs and that you were then left waiting for the correct ones. Receiving the wrong items is frustrating enough without the additional delay of having to wait for replacements.

We hope the correct plugs have now arrived, but if they haven’t, please contact our sales office with your order number so we can investigate this as a priority.

Please accept our sincere apologies for the error and inconvenience caused.

Thanks,

Tim

Good pricing and product, very misleading lead times

Two stars because I eventually did receive my items and they were priced competitively however, I placed my order on 1st of September and was all meant to be for next day delivery and only received my items on the 8th with absolutely no communication directly from the electrical counter so not happy with the service.

Ordered some bulbs

Ordered some bulbs, was advised 3-5 working day delivery. 7 working days went by, heard nothing. Emailed to ask: was advised there’s no stock and won’t be for a couple of days.
No confirmation of this prior, nobody reached out to advise this. Not great
