I have used Spoton for many years and I am saddened that they have closed. I am sad for me but also sad that Manchester appears to have lost a very helpful, inexpensive and knowlegeable retailer.
If anyone lnows where they have moved to, I would be really grateful to find out so that I can use their services again.

I am shocked that SpotOn Computers has closed down as I have gone there on and off for about 5 years and found their service excellent. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable on IT products, the products are competitively priced, their returns policy is good and the shop is easy to access with a large car park in front of it

I ordered an external sound card, good price, acceptable postage.
I have not recieved it, but of course money have been sent.
The website has been shut, no money, no refund recieved yet.
Still waiting,,, I'm getting impatient.
So, I would not trust SpotOn Computers.

Myself and my brother have been shopping at Spot on for over 10 yrs. The staff there are always freindly, organised and ready to help. All the time we have been going we have seen the same staff (5) it can not be that bad when staff stay working in a shop for 10yrs.
They also know there stuff. any one who has something to say about spot on that is negative they need to call in and see the manager i am sure your problem can be solved.

I have shopped at Sporton computers for about 18 years, when the business was known as VIP computers. In all that time I have had only good and proper service from the personnel at this establishment.

I've shopped at SpotOn Computers for many years, and I have had little problems, if none. When I've had a problem building a computer, I just rang their tech department free of charge, and they've been really helpful. I also think the prices are very reasonable.

I don't know who did the previous review of SpotOn Computers but it must have been a different company than I have dealt with for well over 10 yrs.

"Spot On" Computers sold me an overpriced computer (our university runs a purchasing mafia) that had: the network card missing; a different motherboard than requested,(and one NOT listed on the manufacturers website - rendering help/crucial-mem check impossible);a different memory type from the one requested; a graphics card whose fan keeps falling off; a two month late delivery as they didn't point out that delivery should have been costed into the purchase; PSU-cpu cooling system that is so noisy that I cannot bear to have this PC switched on; and basically a lemon-of-a-computer that has never stably supported an operating system any reasonable (>1 day) period of time.
Their policy is not to accept claims of "shortage or damage unless notification is received in writing WITHIN TWO DAYS OF RECEIPT".
Stay away from this company ... as far away as possible!!!

From this guys attitude and the way he writes of his complaint, gives the impression that he probably didn`t give the sales people at spoton a chance to put right his complaints and grievances. I have shopped at Spoton for about 18 years when the business was known as VIP computers and in all that time I have had only good and proper service from the personnel at this establishment.
