I ordered a Blackmagic 4k pocket camera in December 2019 from H Preston order handled by John Preston, money was deposited into his account for the payment upon a promise of delivery in a few days. Till to date no camera, no correspondence, no refund. This is a fraud company. You will be scammed if you are to order from them especially if itis being handled by John. My advice to avoid disappointment do not order from this company

Refund
January 15, 2019

Hi John, Andy, Andy guest... i am not pleased the way you have treated me in my Refund. I purchased a Canon XF405 Camcorder, your websites states that you have it in stock, i paid, then you did not give the product or my money. I paid since November 9th 2018, requesting for my refund, but you refused. I wasted a lot of money in phoning you, i wasted my time in sending emails... I cannot count how many emails i have sent to you... but when i read reviews here i realised thats the way you treat customers. You have lied so many times, including Hpreston staffs... they are liers... i will not call you again. I am giving you 24hrs to pay my GBP3,998, and i will not take it likely with you.

Avoid at all costs. I would give minus stars if I could.

They will sell you something that is out of stock as if it were in stock. Then they will lie to you about how fast your item is going to be shipped. Then they will completely ignore you when you ask to cancel your order (twice).

The cancellation process is not automated and my emails asking them to cancel were completely ignored.

My order was shipped 5 weeks after I placed it and now I have no use for the item because it was so late. I am not even going to bother communicating more with this "company" to try and get my refund because it's just not worth my time.

Disgusting service.

Having a difficult experience with this supplier, shop elsewhere or use PayPal. Issue is still ongoing and not refunded as of 24 SEP 2019 (purchase 21 AUG 2019, over 1 month).

Please use PayPal or similar when buying online from this seller. Ordered a cinema camera online 21 Aug listed as 'in stock'. Then received an update stating the camera was not in stock, but would be delivered Weds next week. Over the following weeks, despite on / off email communication, the camera never arrived despite promises.

They mentioned it had shipped but could supply no tracking despite repeated requests. A dispute was raised via PayPal Sep 10th and the seller cancelled and refunded the order next day. However, the refund did not complete due to insufficient funds in the sellers account or was cancelled directly. After some more nudging the seller started a 2nd refund which also did not complete.

Have now had to escalate with PayPal although the seller is communicating but how many times do you let someone break their promises? Have lost count now. Shop elsewhere.

The seller did communicate but only after prompting. Possibly just one of those things but please, please use PayPal or similar if buying online from this merchant. My advice is to avoid.

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
