MESSAGE TO EVERYONE READING

I ordered a quad from this lot and made a chargeback and got my money back through my bank.

There is another scam going on there is someone called Gordon from a company called www.quads4kids.co.uk who made a post asking people to contact him. They are part of the scam I have seen it before one web site does not deliver and then another one pretends to help and takes your payment again because you still want the item so they end up with 2 payments and you end up with one item. BIG WARNING TO EVERYONE watch out for this www.quads4kids.co.uk company i think them and fast buggies are the same. I am reporting Quads4kids.co.uk to watchdog and I I suggest everyone does the same. Make sure you do not get scammed again by Gordon

I will be putting warning message about quads 4 kids on as many sites as possible as i think its fast buggies new company

I had read these posts and in fact my bike was delayed but i work in shipping my self so tracked the consignment to the port they told me and in fact it seems that they said was all true the ship was delayed. Today i received my delayed quad and i am over the moon with it. These things happen and i think the comments about delays are unfair as it appears the company was telling the truth. I received compensation and i am very glad i choose to wait its very easy to put a company down but i found by asking politely they explained the situation. To anyone out there waiting i wouldnt worry i checked and it seems they have quite a few containers going through customs. Would i recomend them, yes i would. Although my order was late i felt then handled it well and i gave them 5 stars. I have a hundred and ten cc quad from them and its just great value.

Ordered my son a quad in early November for Christmas, was assured that it would be delivered in time, beginning of December. Waited until mid December (12th) as i hadn't heard anything. E-mailed to see when it was going to be delivered was assured it would be with me by the 18th only to receive an e-mail saying that they could no longer fulfil their order and would not be able to deliver the item. Promised a full refund as yet I have not heard a thing from them. Getting my bank to investigate for me. Never, never, never use these guys.

I ordered 3 items from this site 2 mini bikes and a quad. The mini bikes arrived a week early and the quad 3 days after. I have owned blata mini bikes before but i was not prepared to pay £700 for another one so I tried fast buggies not epexpecting much. Thankfully i can report that the quality is very good on the mini bikes. The quad i havent started yet as i keeping it for my sons christmas preasent but i have made a quick visual inspection and everything looks good. So a big thumbs up

I have had nothing but trouble from this company - STEER CLEAR! I ordered by quad bike at the beginning of October and was promised my bike by end of October. It didnt arrive on the date specified so I was offered £100 compensation and was promised my bike would be delivered within 14 days. Neither the bike or the compensation turned up. I then asked for a full refund and cancelled my order. I was told my refund would be with me within 7-14 working days. I AM STILL WAITING!
No one bothers to answer the phone or return my emails. My bank's fraud They have now left a message on their web page saying that if you are due a refund or bike, thehy will contact you within the nextx 4 working days... this was 7 working days ago! Yet another fob off! They are the most unprofessional and dishonest company I have ever dealt with!

I was searching the web in seach of quality quad bikes that where not to expensive when i came across www.fastbuggies.co.uk. I finally decided to purchase one of their quad bikes that cost 800 pounds, the arrival date was two weeks later but then two weeks past and no bike. I then tried contacting them by phone and e-mail but they would only reply every 6 days and with minimal information. I then got fed up of hearing from them how the quad bike got damaged whilst being shipped from germany and how they accidently sent us the wrong colour so they had to delay the arrival time by another 2 weeks. I then decided to cancel the order but they would not allow me to unless i paid a further 200 pounds. I could not belive this. NEVER PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY, THEY ARE SCAMMERS AND WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY. THEY ARE UNOFICAIL AND ARE SCAMS.

Order went through on the 29 th september for 2 bikes. One bike received 15 days later but it was blue not black but i said ok because it was early second bike received last week, 2 weeks late. I was informed by e-mail about the delay on the second bike and agreed to wait. One bike was a 50cc and its perfect for my 6 year old the second a 110cc for my 11 year old. I work at honda service center so i assembled them at the workshop. The 50cc bike came fully assembled but i would advise checking them for anything loose. The 110cc need the racks putting on and a top up of oil. On the whole I am quite impressed and for the prices i didnt mind waiting a little longer. Communication is on the weak side but i think thats the only problem. Our workshop fixes street bikes and sometimes we have to wait a bit longer for things to ship I tried to make my review as complete as possible. I will update if there is anything worthwhile to mention but for now I am very pleased.

I ordered 4 110cc midi quads from these clowns
I was offered £200 compo altogether as they were delivered late however told i won't get this money back untill they were delivered.
Delivery did take place however all quads are not fit to ride on infact always cold start(dont start) simply because of the cheap parts e. G battery, sparkplug, carb.
Tried contacting them for new parts as im garunteed by them for 6 months but no answer does any one have a contact number for them or a email address?
They still havent paid my compo. I think they have gone bust and now im left with 4 $#*! machines taking space up and i tell you now never buy from them even if there products were free not worth the hassle.

Please contact me if you get contact number or email address *******@hotmail.co.uk

Hi.
I posted on here earlier this week. Fast Buggies has taken me for £499.80. I paid on my debit card and the bank says they can't do anything to get the money back. Have any of you got any ideas?

fastbuggies.co.uk THIS company IS A SCAM I give Alex fast-buggies sales prick 10 /10 for deception. Liar Liar Liar.

I don't believe for one moment that they have ever supplied a product.

It is more than likely that any positive reviews you read will be written by people with a financial interest in fastbuggies

I got my refund after 3 month of sheer hassle my mates still waiting for his 4 months on. When the dust settles you'll try to analyse what this company is all about my conclusion is, their business is collecting money for the purpose of making interest. What ever the case is if you deal with this company your in for the "RIDE OF YOUR LIFE"

I will join forces with other disillusioned fastbuggie customers reporting them to watchdog as I would love to see an end to this scam having experienced every negative comment or excuse you read about this company.

In conclusion FUK EM

I ordered a buggy £650 CC in June 2008 yes june 2008 and I have not received it yet. I asked for a refund and guess what I have not reveived that either. FASTBUGGIES are just a bunch of $#*!ing cowboys. I have After numerous emails in one and half years not got any joy whatsoever. I am now chasing them through the German authorities seen that TRADING STANDARDS are also a bunch of wankers. The say they can't do anything as the company is based abroad.
The only helpfull hand in all this mess has been Gordon from Quadsforkids. I just kicking myself now for not going with them in the first place. Gordon tried to help me get my quad back and we both worked on it for a few months but invane. Its a shame for honest people like him. I could have bought my buggy from him and saved myself all this trouble. I am not going to let go though. I will track the bastards down. If anyone has any info please let me know.

I am glad i did not take notice of the negative posts I have found fast buggies to nothing but professional. Delays happen, so what. NO they won't take your money and of course they will deliver. All i did was ask for the container number found out it was late they told me they would call me when it would clear and I got my bike. I think its quite funny that people are prepared to talk rubbish but not prepared to tell the truth. The quad is brilliant it was cheap and i really hope any one who reads a forum like this uses some intelligence. So anyway A BIG THANK YOU TO FAST BUGGIES YOU WILL MAKE MY SONS CHRISTMAS
