Great service
April 13, 2018

Ordered two batteries for Traveler DC 8300 camera despite the negative reviews and was pleasantly surprised at how good the company dealt with my order.
The final order form disappeared from my screen but a quick email was answered promptly by Alan which assured me the order had been despatched. The batteries have arrived and are very good. Would buy from them again

Ordered and paid for camcorder battery - not received after several weeks, so asked why - told item not in stock. Sent several messages which were ignored - contacted BBC Watchdog and eventually got refund but noticed that the out of stock battery has been constantly advertised as in stock. Really dubious outfit.

Refund received
August 28, 2015

I ordered a battery believing I was dealing with a UK seller, I even used Google maps to check that the address was genuine! (some trading estate). Shortly after ordering I found these helpful comments, and panicked. Fortunately I used PayPal so requested a refund from the seller on the same day (by opening a dispute in their Resolution Centre). Seller refunded in full the next day, and the dispute was closed automatically. Makes me mad the level of fraud this seller is willing to go to, by using a. co.uk website and a fake UK address just to trick people to order from him!

I only got my order because I hassled them repeatedly by email, and then it was from Amazon - clearly they didn't have my battery in stock. No confirmation email, and it took three weeks and several emails. Avoid.

I've found this site searching for Zhang Zheng Li, too late for me!. One month ago I bought a I've found this site searching for Zhang Zheng Li, too late for me!. One month ago I bought a battery for my Tosh laptop from these guys (apparently from China), No problem with the shipment, but the battery lasts less than one hour! I'm sure they are reselling second-hand or defective equipment. After several e-mails and complaints, they say they will send me another, but I have to pay for the shipment (to Spain). I said no, because no guarantee at all that the nest one is Ok. Just for potential buyers: Do not trust Zhang Zheng Lis batteries!

Avoid this company
April 24, 2017

I bought a battery for my laptop; it took ages to arrive from China, I thought this is a UK company. The battery didn't fit, I returned it, they claimed it was never received. The shipping company they used MyHermes don't allow batteries to be shipped so my insurance wasn't valid. Avoid this company, they are scam artists. I wishe I had read a review before buying a battery.

If this is your case, do not hesitate to buy a battery from top-battery-adapter. These XXI century buccaneers sell defective items and ignore any claim for compensation. Do not be fooled by the price: those who sell cheap something worthless remains thieves, even if they disguise themselves as a legal company.
This is my story: I bought online a battery from top-battery- adapter for my laptop. After a few weeks I got it at home. I charged it to 100%. When discharged up to 99%, a Windows message indicating battery low and the warning symbol appears on screen (!). With 33% load, the computer goes into hibernation. A week after starting to use the battery, the program Everest Ultimate (hardware analysis utility) indicates a 16% wear (!). I have written several messages to Alan from top-battery- adapter Customer Service to indicate the problem and find a solution, and I have not had any response.
"Satisfaction guaranteed" appears on its website. I imagine that it relates to their own satisfaction when they receive an order from a buyer in good faith that, without knowing it, is throwing his money.

My Sony laptop battery arrived fairly quickly but discharged after 50 minutes! They sent a replacement but that was the same. Paypal found in my favour but I could not provide a tracking number because Royal Mail do not carry lithium-iron batteries. Avoid these guys.

I would NOT recommend this site. ALthough it looks like it is UK based (shows Royal Mail logos etc.) it is not - it ships from Singapore. They quote 'fast shipping' - nothing could be worse. Over three weeks later I am still waiting. I have asked for a refund but no joy. Stay clear!

Hello
June 20, 2014

Hello
As others have stated, I too thought it was a Uk site, the battery did not fit so i asked for a refund, after flirting emails back and forth and telling her to contact me on my number i realised she was from china, with her broken English and also she was replying at night time due to the time difference. They asked me to take photo's and all the rigmarole but i then found these reviews and realised she was trying to waste time, after telling her i was going to raise it with paypal she offered a refund but i was also aware they have been giving some customers part refunded so i contacted paypal who told me, not to send it back until i hear from them and they have verified the address, as in one email she stated " I will give refund if we receive it back" that wording in itself was dodgy, anyway paypal are taking care of it so i am guaranteed my money back. My advice to anybody is raise the issue immediately with Pay Pal.
Thank you
Angela

My charger took weeks to arrive, then blew up as soon as I plugged it in. When I emailed the laughingly entitled 'customer service' I was told that there was a problem with my electricity supply.

I've since bought another battery (making sure that this one is coming from the UK) and it works perfectly, of course.

I've no hope of a refund from these people, but I hope I can dissuade anybody else from giving money to them.

Don't ever buy from them, one of their tricks is to advertise batteries at unbelievably cheap prices, whither they have stock or not! You will not get any confirmation of your order but when you finally get a response from your emails. They will offer you a refund. Usually through PayPal. Then it takes them several weeks to do this! In total they have had your money in their account for over a month. Nice business model!

Absolutely awful experience. The website pretends to be a UK shop but batteries ship from China and take 2 weeks to arrive.
Even though it says on the website you can get a refund, the guy just refuses to give one, point blank. So never buy from this site; it is a scam.

I was a little concerned at some of the reviews for this company, but as its the only place advertising a specialist charger I needed I had no option but to buy here, I wasn't disappointed, the charger arrived after a few days and is exactly what I needed, try to read past the bad reviews and give them a try if you need something specialist.

Cannot be trusted
October 15, 2012

Cannot be trusted. Not based in the UK based in China, despite mis-leading. co.uk site. You get the same cheap battery that you can buy for less on Ebay IF you want to buy a cheap Chinese battery. Battery did not fit my laptop, I was fobbed off past the 45 days, so no PayPal refund, returned battery on promise of return shipping being paid, I now have 4 emails promising the shipping refund, BUT NO REFUND, only promises that mean nothing. Thankfully Visa took up the case and I am not out of pocket for the battery itself... stay well clear

Fake website not based in UK and uses royal mail logos, battery is very poor fit and only worked for 2weeks. I have sent many emails and phoned, no luck. Its now nearly 8 months with no luck, they have my money and are in China, no chance replacement battery or refund, and they know it just fraudsters... Keep away from this company.

I had to request a replacement, because the first battery they sent was flat and wouldn't charge. Other than that, no problems so far. Both batteries arrived within a few days, and the second one has worked fine so far.
