Misleading shipping info

published

Happy with products and prices. However you should be honest with customers about your shipping methods. You give customers the choice of auspost or star track, I chose auspost yet my order was sent via xpresstoyou. Nowhere on your sites does it mention you use this company. I understand xpresstoyou may be quicker than australia post but many customers will not be home when delivery arrives and it is much easier to pick up from local post office than xpresstoyou depot. I will no longer be ordering from centrecom online.

Exemplary service and Quality Product

published

Centre Com deals in quality products and not cheap copies. Its communication and service is second to none with the whole transaction through to delivery being seamless.

Searching for specific products and Centre Com was substantially cheaper than other places.
Ordered, got confirmation next day and package received on day 1 of my delivery window.
Very happy with the entire process

Refund Policy Non existent

published

I ordered desktop ram and was sent the same spec RAM but for a laptop. After many emails they agreed to a refund but charged a 25% restocking fee, plus I had to post it at my cost. Then, adding insult to injury they claimed that they never received it. Unbelievable lack of customer service. I will never buy anything from centre.com ever!
They behave like rip-off merchants and a simple bunch of thieves.

Good range, competitive pricing and prompt attention to orders.

published

Have shopped with Centre.com for over 2 years now and find them to have a good range on popular tech products with competitive pricing. WIth no hidden fees for shipping and prompt attention to order servicing, they are my go to place for onlime shopping for tech products.

Bunch of morons

published

One of my worst buying experiences ever. After placing order via PayPal they wanted my utility bills and driver's license. I refused to provid this as I have no idea how secure this data will be with them, after arguing them all day they told me to cancel order and place with a CC, I did this and next day they wanted picture of my CC, utility bills and driver's licence and passport. This is ridiculous, treati g me like a thief. Extremely disappointed and will never buy from them. I will never provide this type of data to a online retailer.

Exceptional experience

I have been going to Centrecom for some years now, always a great experience. I have moved interstate and still have them as my go to option where possible. Placed an order a little under three hours ago and it has been processed, picked, packed and dispatched already!

Lack of Care!

published

I paid additional for a quick delivery but only part of my order was delivered and when I called the Customer Care team and asked why, it was the couriers problem and nothing they could or would do about it. They were adamant that as they had delivered part of my order on time, they had completed their end of the bargain and their obligations.
It took a lot of time on the phone being refused a refund of the additional money paid and then even longer to speak to a supervisor who also didn't care.
The second part of the order was eventually delivered very late in the day but had I not been pushing for a refund, I'm not sure it would have arrived.
Very poor customer service and will not purchase from them again.

Exceeded my expectations

published

I'm very please with the desktop I received. It shipped out right away and was in perfect working order when it arrived. The price was fantastic. I got a lot for what I paid.
As for AusPost, Centre Com required a signature on delivery. Not only did they not get a signature, they delivered it to the wrong address. That was yesterday and I checked tracking this morning and they show it delivered. Fortunately the person they delivered it to looked me up and brought it to me, or I would still be looking for my computer. When I rate shipping poorly, PLEASE UNDERSTAND it doesn't reflect on Centre Com. They did great.

Faulty laptop screen yet "NO FAULT FOUND"

published

I purchased a Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED laptop and I found the screen has SERIOUS flaw (photos attached). Artifacts and green tint effects keep showing and bothering me whenever I use it.

I sent it back and was expecting I could get a full refund since the purchase was less than 2 weeks. Pre-paid postage was arranged, however, I were just told "No fault found" and they will send it back to me soon.

What a frustrating purchase experience!
I will NOT recommend anyone purchase anything from them until they care to solve the problem.

Unbeatable service at an unbeatable price - you can't beat that.

published

I have purchased from CentreCom online store multiple time & have had "A Class" service every time without question. They have a massive in stock range at some of the best prices you can find (and most of the time the freight is free). Even when down the track I've had hardware failure (not their fault obviously) their support guys have sorted it out quickly for me.

Great customer service

published

I placed an order that qualified for free shipping. After placing the order, I wanted to add to it to make use of the free shipping, so I contacted Centrecom immediately inquiring if I could. I got a reply on a weekend and Jenjie was so helpful organising all of this. He even tried calling me multiple times to sort the issue out. Amazing customer service! Would give more stars if I could!

Beware, email and PayPal email must match otherwise you’ll wait to get your money back

published

While ordering I was not told that my email and the PayPal must match. I would have just used the PayPal email for the confirmation instead then. I ordered express and expected the item to be sent on Thu but instead they asked for ridiculous info such as utility bills and photo ID. I’m trying to buy a mouse, not a house. Now I’m stuck with their CS not replying to my cancellation request and them holding my money ransom..

Horrible Express Post - StarTrak

Centercom service excellent, unable to comment on product as not yet arrived. Express post (at extra cost) via StarTrack absolutely woeful. Parcel arrives at Vic country depot and is still there 8 days after dispatch and customer service has no idea when it maybe delivered.
