Took my money and supplied no cameras
October 5, 2023

In September 2021 I purchased 3 Sony FX6 cameras with lenses from this company. They promised delivery within 2 weeks, it has now been 2 years. The lenses were supplied after a month-long wait but I still have no cameras. John will not answer the phone, he's impossible to get hold of and only sends what feels like automated email responses. I've included one in the photos for you to appreciate.

Do not use this company I'm now £17,000 down with 3 lenses I cannot use.

I recently purchased the Sony FX6 Camcorder from H.Preston Media UK, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. From start to finish, their service was exceptional, making it an absolute pleasure to deal with them.

First and foremost, I was thrilled to find the Sony FX6 at an amazing price, which was the best deal I could find from a genuine Sony UK dealer. The ordering process was smooth and straightforward, and I received my camcorder in record time, just as promised. The fast delivery was impressive, especially considering the current circumstances.

Upon receiving the camera, I had a few technical questions about setting it up to suit my needs. The customer support team at H.Preston Media UK went above and beyond to assist me. They patiently guided me through the setup process via FaceTime, ensuring that I got everything just right. Their expertise and willingness to help were truly commendable.

Additionally, when I faced a minor issue with my purchase, their after-sales service was top-notch. I visited their shop, and they resolved the problem promptly and efficiently. To top it off, they even treated me to a nice cup of coffee during my visit, making me feel valued as a customer.

Overall, my experience with H.Preston Media UK has been outstanding. Their dedication to customer satisfaction, competitive pricing, and excellent support truly set them apart from other retailers. I will undoubtedly recommend them to friends and colleagues without hesitation. It's comforting to know that I can rely on them for any future camera-related needs.

Thank you, H.Preston Media UK, for providing exceptional service and making my Sony FX6 purchase an enjoyable and hassle-free experience.

Warmest regards,
Ian

Great Purchase
June 17, 2023

I highly recommend H.Preston in Malvern! Several of my friends had recommended them to me, and I'm so glad I listened. I recently purchased the incredible Sony FX3 camera kit from their store, and I couldn't be happier with my decision.

The entire process, from placing my order to receiving the package, was seamless. The delivery time was around 5 days, which was faster than I expected. The customer service provided by H.Preston was exceptional. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction.

Not only did I receive a top-notch product, but I also had the peace of mind knowing that there was excellent backup and support available if needed. It's evident that H.Preston values their customers and takes pride in delivering an exceptional shopping experience.

If you're in the market for camera equipment or any related accessories, I highly recommend giving H.Preston a visit. Their wide selection of products, prompt delivery, and outstanding customer service make them a standout choice. I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and I will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, H.Preston, for exceeding my expectations!

Great price, amazing service!

Surprisingly, H.Preston were significantly cheaper than anywhere else I could find for the item I needed, and even though I placed the order on Thursday night, it was shipped on Friday and received early Saturday morning - all for a standard 'free shipping' order - outstanding service!

Stay away, worst experience in a long time
January 9, 2023

STAY AWAY. HORRENDOUS EXPERIENCE. NO REFUND!
I literally cannot believe I'm writing this review now... I really should have paid attention to the dozens of other horror stories and reviews below and on TrustPilot before ordering from these guys.

I've ordered a Canon C70 for £4000, marked as in Stock and ready to be delivered the next day. But like a multitude of other people have found out, it wasn't really in stock.
Thought I first received an email saying it had been shipped to me, in reality it wasn't.
After calling multiple times, they told me it wasn't really the case, instead it was ordered from their suppliers and should arrive soon to their warehouse... but never seemed to arrive day after day...

Since the camera wasn't going to arrive in time (or at all who knows with these guys...), I asked to cancel the order and get a full refund, only to be told they could not cancel because of the delivery. What delivery? The camera isn't even in your stock! You've told me yourself that you do not have that camera.

After asking 4 times by email and on the phone for a full refund and being denied my £4000 back, I have been assured my order has been canceled and the refund sent. It's now been A MONTH and I still haven't received my refund back. I have NEVER EVER seen such a terrible experience with any retailer.

I'm now going to have to seize a court or ask my bank for a chargeback. In the meantime I have £4000 out in the wild which is a massive stress for me.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR: DO NOT order from those guys ever. Like a lot of people have explained it here, they've had to wait for months to get delivered or have had to harass them to get their refund. Such a shame.
