I've just called BCUK about 10 minutes ago. And have put their phone onto voice mail only or email. Like i said when i receive my conversion kit i will never buy from them again

What a joke - have you paid for stuff through them mate.

Spoke to a few guys on the Syndicate earlier in the week, they are both now waiting 19 weeks for their stuff. No correspondence from the firm, no updates when they will receive their kit. Both are requesting a refund and going with one of the mainstream (Fox, Nash) barrows.

My mate ordered in November and still hasn't received. They told him they dispatched it 4 weeks ago but still nothing and now they wont respond to his calls or emails.

Why are people still ordering from this outfit??
God help anyone who actually has an issue after sale, can't see them ever putting anything right.

Just like me waiting for handles, them not even being made, only for a Ebay listing saying x number available. I ordered them based on the previous Ebay listing saying they were in stock.
I wonder how many people are in the same situation...hmm

My mate has had his conversion delivered this week, ordered in November 2023. Apparently it was down to the lithium batteries they were waiting on....

Just saying, they could buy lithium batts anywhere, it's hard to buy a good reputation.
If that was my business I'd have taken the hit and sourced them elsewhere not leave my customers like that!

Just read a Trustpilot review - looks like they have dissapeared from their premises and vanished. Not sure if true.

Loads of people still waiting for there gear from months back.

Something isn't right here

Just get a Nash Trax Power Metro/Evo - more than adequate for typical UK fishing; swopping out the lead acid for LifeP04 batteries also significantly increases available power and performance . . .
