“Buy With Caution”

★☆☆☆☆

written by normplant1969 on 27/10/2013

Purchased a 5 wood with a custom shaft and custom grip online via credit card.Club arrived promptly but with a standard shaft and grip. Complained immediately and was assured that item would be replaced. Five weeks later after numerous phone calls, emails, lies and excuses have given up trying to get the item replaced. Manufacturer kindly agreed to supply a shaft and grip as a gesture of goodwill bypassing golf247. Do not trade with this company. The worst customer service imaginable. They may be cheap but DO NOT be fooled

“I've been mugged!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Frapper on 23/10/2013

Oh boy, wish I'd read this site before giving these jokers £243! Over a month later, many emails sent, but ignored, what do I do? Alas I paid on debit card so can't get redress there. Does anyone live near Oldham and can verify this is a genuine trading company???? Wish I could give zero stars. AVOID

“Ripped off - use at your peril”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 19/10/2013

I purchased a golf club 6 weeks ago and have yet to receive it. They have ignored 5 emails and when you attempt to phone them you get a message saying they are having phone line problems. I believe they have gone bust - why else ignore all attempts of communication! I am now trying to retrieve my money through my credit card company! Just try and order through their phone line and you will see! Also their " ending Monday sale 15% off" has been on for 2 months now and apparently ending every Monday and Friday!!! Buy from them at your own peril!!!

“DO NOT USE GOLF247 - THEY ARE JUST AWFUL”

★☆☆☆☆

written by RusticNeil on 15/10/2013

I ordered a pair of golf shoes with a promise of 2-3 days delivery. They have not arrived in 10 days and I cannot get in touch with them as they do not reply to emails and the recorded phone message says they are having a few phone problems today so leave a message and they will get back to you. This is obviously a complete set of lies and they do not return the calls. I will try to cancel the order and get my money returned but I am not holding my breath. I do not know if they are dishonest, incompetent or just rubbish at customer service. WHATEVER - DO NOT USE GOLF247.CO.UK

“Terrible!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 03/10/2013

Don't use these guys. I ordered a head cover as a gift and a week later it hadn't arrived. They told me it was lost in the post and they would send another. Two weeks further on and after calls and emails AMAZON who I had used to pay emailed to say the order had been cancelled. They didn't even have the good grace and manners to tell me themselves! Rubbish - don't use them!

“Avoid Like the Plague!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 01/10/2013

They take your money for goods they haven't even got in stock (or probably never have had)and then send you something vaguely similar hoping that you either won't notice or will just wave the white flag and keep it. If you want to send something back, they take ages organising a collection and then don't give you a refund even when they've got the goods back. They don't answer emails and don't answer the phone. Don't fall for the lure of cheap advertised prices because they are a a rip off. Terrible is too good a rating.

“Avoid!!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Mcn1310 on 28/09/2013

I ordered a wind proof golf top on next day delivery. After 20 days still no sign so. Emailed them - after my third email finally had a reply saying they would chase with the post office. 2 days later it was delivered via a parcel company and the date o the label was only one day previous. Opened the item and it is the wrong size despite the order stating the right size.i have emailed them agin to dispute and also started proceedings with PayPal

“Give this company a wide berth”

★☆☆☆☆

written by scuffy007 on 20/09/2013

I have given them 1 star because there is not a lower rating. Bought a pair of Footjoy golf shoes extra wide because I have diabetes and suffer with circulation problems in my feet which I explained to Golf247 and got a pair of medium size delivered, so I phoned and was told no problem they would send out a new pair the right size and pick up the wrong sized shoes. 3 emails and 3 phone calls later still have the wrong shoes, no delivery or pickup. Had I read the reviews on this company I would have given them a wide miss. I have now had to put a dispute in with Paypal. Its a pity these types of stores are allowed to trade on the internet. So if you are thinking of buying from this store forget it, don't waste your money

“Avoid”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 14/09/2013

Ordered a driver due to the excellent online price. Heard nothing for 2 weeks. Contacted them and the guy said it was "probably lost in a flood in Birmingham", which is where the courier was based!!!! You couldn't make it up (well unless your 247 Golf). Without checking with the courier firm, he said he would send another one out! I knew then that they never had it in stock. Left it a week and again obviously the 'next' driver didn't arrive either. After a few phone calls, bloke said he would give me a refund. As it was paid with a credit card, I couldn't check if they had done it until my statement arrived a month later. Surprise, surprise...No refund!! I called again and he said "Oh, the guy has done the refund but forgot to press the enter button"!!. After 2 months I got my money back and successfully got the driver I wanted from a trustworthy company. Basically, in my opinion, they offer products at great prices that they don't have in stock. The cash then sits in their bank account for a couple of months while you go through their charade. I wouldn't buy a pencil from these jokers now. You have been warned.

“no customer service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 26/08/2013

I ordered (and paid for) 3 right-hand golf gloves. Few days later I received 3 left-hand gloves. I emailed, no response, and then phoned to be told it would be "sorted". A few days later I received a further 3 left-hand gloves! I emailed again - and again - and tried to phone but it was permanently on the recorded message directing me to email contact!! So I'm left with 6 gloves that will shortly be put on ebay to try to compensate for my initial outlay. Absolute rubbish customer service.

“Absolute disgrace (they are a sham)”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Aprilia2167 on 03/08/2013

Ordered 10 doz titliest pro v1 overruns on the 15th July. After 10 working days still no sign. I contacted the store to be told that a batch had arrived and they had my name on them and I was promised delivery wed / thurs of this week. Guess what still no sign. I have emailed the company with no response what so ever, contacted them by telephone only only to be told by the employee that he couldn't assist me and the person dealing with orders didn't start work until 1030am and he would get him to ring straight away. To my surprise still no call !!! I have contacted the company every 30 mins on all numbers to be answered by an answer machine message.this company is an absolute shambolic joke.

Ordered golf shoes for my husband, waited nearly 2 weeks then after broken delivery promises, different pair to those ordered were delivered. Spoke to them and they arranged collection on 22 July, and promised refund as soon as they had them back. STILL WAITING AND EMAILS AND MESSAGES ON ANSWER MACHINE BEING IGNORED!

A friend of mine referred this site for purchasing golfing accessories. At first I was hesitating, but when I placed my order and received the goods quickly at my doorstep I was more than amazed. Good Job!
