I ordered a Hatchimal on the 21 Nov 2016. It was promised to be delivered by 12 Dec 2016! Received the Hatchimal on the 6 Dec! I found them to be BRILLIANT! The liaised with me via my FB messenger ( as I followed them on FB) and they responded to all of my emails! Due to my experience I would give Savvibuy a 5* rating! I will definitely use them again!

Stole my £460 last December. Ignored all emails and calls. No goods ever delivered. Scum. Complete con artists. Reported to the police. Luckily my bank was great and refunded the amount after 3 months but didn't make up for no Xmas presents.

Ordered fitbit over a month ago. Got same response as everyone else. Blamed black Friday, saying orders are 72 hours behind schedule. Then promised guaranteed delivery Friday 23rd dec. No Joy. Ive had to chase and chase these people. Cant speak to a person on the phone, just recorded message and ive had no replies to my emails since either. My wife has nothing under the tree now because of these morons

Ordered a Hatchimal for my 8 year old as that was the only prezzie she wanted and surprise, surprise, it didn't turn up. Had to make excuses about Santa not bringing it which led to many tears and huge disappointment this morning. Heart breaking to see. We are all absolutely gutted. I am absolutely livid at this firm and will take further action. What goes around, comes around. You will get your come uppance, you utter piece of $#*!. Not even worth the one star.

They took money in November, promised delivery on 6 December. Never arrived. Guaranteed delivery 23rd December. Never arrived. 9 year old daughter devestated on Christmas day. Closed their Facebook and Twitter pages. Not answering email, phone or messenger. Rude, thieving, shameless despicable low lives. Do not ever give them the time of day let alone your business. They deserve nothing less than bankruptcy.

Ordered an item in November. Delivery scheduled for mid December. Subsequent letter from Savvibuy informed me they were running 72 hrs behind with deliveries but still guaranteed delivery in time Christmas.

When nothing had arrived by 19 December I contacted Customer Services who stated they ensured delivery by Christmas. December 22 nothing arrived. Customer Services then stated the item would be delivered next day. Nothing.

Result - one spoilt child's Christmas. One lousy company.

Tip for consumers:
Do not buy from Savvibuy.

I ordered an Apple I-Pad Air 2 on 30th November with a promised delivery in 3-5 days. It is now 13th January and they are now not answering any emails. The last communication I received was on 14th December to tell me my delivery was guaranteed by 23rd December - Yeah, right! Please don't go anywhere near this company, they're total rip off merchants. I'm reporting them to Trading Standards and having to make a claim against my credit card company to try and get the outlay refunded.

This company are scammers. Please do not part with your cash. I got ripped off too and don't want others to fall into this trap. Toy purchased the cancelled after seeing reviews. Stalling emails received and the runaround given. No money refunded and my bank say they have ceased trading. Looks like i've lost money here. Do not buy from a. Com website. Stick with high street companies. Be careful

I ordered a PS4 VR headset and camera on the 13th Dec and paid just under £400 for it. Promised delivery by 18th Dec at the latest. Nothing received so I emailed them. Received a profuse apology and a promise of tracking info by 21 Dec, and a guarantee that I WILL receive the order by 23 Dec, which is their last dispatch date before Xmas. Needless to say by late 22 Dec (today) no tracking info so I'm not holding my breath for a delivery tomorrow. This can only be a scam which must be stopped. I can't believe with all the complaints listed this company continues to trade. I strongly urge anyone with similar difficulties to contact Trading Standards to put a stop to this scamming company.

Fraud is the only word to describe it. I don't understand why the police aren't their door arresting chaudrey Ahmad at 40 tweedale street in Rochdale for theft. He must have more than half a million pounds taken so easily from people and not an apology or a product in sight.

I reported them to trading standards and the fraud office and hopefully he will be brought to justice unless he has fled the country which I suspect will be the case.

We purchased a tablet from them at the end of November. They promised delivery on the 7th Dec. That time passed and just like everyone else on here we contacted numerous times and got no where. Here's how you deal with it, we paid by debit card so called our bank. The bank were brilliant! They told us we would get our money back within 10 days. Guess what, we got it back in 4 days! Don't bother contacting Savvibuy for a refund you won't get it. Go straight to your bank or credit card company and you will get your money back, we did! Please don't just except you have lost your money as one phone call to your bank and they will get it back for you! DON'T let these scammers keep your money!

Learn from others mistakes and stay clear of these lying crooks.
Hopefully the authorities will hold them to account for spoiling a lot of peoples Christmas.
Our experience is just the same as others listed here, but its worth noting our card payment went to a different company, Advancetech.co who, when I contacted them were verbally very concerned and helpful, time will tell whether they fulfil their promise!

This company scammed lots of people just before Christmas 2016. They also operate under iswegway.com that seems to deliver goods however I would never use any of their companies advance tech/ iswegway/ shop in Rochdale because of the savvibuy scam. They do it every Christmas, I believed it because of reviews of their other businesses that are legitimate & deliver goods

Ordered a Fitbit for my son. Received an email GUARANTEEING a 23rd December delivery - of course nothing arrived and another very upset teenager. My question is, will it ever arrive, or should I instigate a money-back approach?

Basically ruined a 10 year old girls Christmas.
Days before I sent emails and contacting via Facebook and Twitter.and they just ignored everything.
Tried to phone them. It's been recorded message for 5 days now.
And now to get a refund you to do it yourself via the bank.
Lazy ripping off bastards can't even be bothered to give you your money back.
Probably the worst online shopping experience ever.
I hope they go under and cease trading.
Zero stars and zero respect and they can go to hell for all I care..

I ordered a PS4 console a week before cyber Monday and it's expected to be delivered between 8-12 December and here I am still waiting. I tried to call them multiple times, left messages so many times but no one got back to me. If I've read this review before, I wouldn't have even bothered dealing with this people. My son's birthday is ruined as I'm dued to have leave for xmas only to still be waiting for my goods. Poor customer service. No communication

Reading all these reviews, and being in the same position as everyone else. I'm a single parent struggling financially, Christmas time is tough for me, and having not received the order and no response to any emails sent is very upsetting!
