Review of Omaze


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Deception and gaslighting

Joined, they took a payment. Within two weeks, took another. Heard nothing since, no marketing emails, nothing. So went in the account. No subscription, no entries made.
Contacted them, they ping ponged emails telling me I used another email - despite me showing a screenshot IN the account with the email visible. As I can't tell them anything about the other email, they won't help further and condescendingly say they are 'at a loss to explain why you won't tell me which email you used' - I can't not won't, don't try to gaslight me.
So I can only assume this is one MASSIVE deception.

Hi there,


Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you are having trouble logging into the correct account. 


There are occasions where a payment method will autofill an email at the point of purchase. When an initial purchase is made, an Omaze account is automatically created with that email address to safely store the purchase information and generated entry code. This is not always the same email address that customers are logging in with and there is no need to create an account after the purchase.


We would love to help you resolve this and assist with gaining access to your entries, please reach out to us in response to our last email. 


Kind Regards, 
The Omaze Team.

Cold calling repeatedly

Cold calling repeatedly - TPS registered number

Absolute disgrace. 4 times they have been told it's a TPS registered number this week.

Talking over me as I told them each time.

Full redesign of existing site

Rhi did a full redesign of our existing website and I couldn't be happier with the result.

Communication was excellent from the start - she responded quickly, listened to what we wanted changed (while keeping the parts that already worked), and kept us updated throughout instead of going quiet and reappearing with a finished product.

The design itself is a big step up: modern, clean, and clearly tailored to our business rather than a generic template. Turnaround was faster than I expected for a full redesign, yet it never felt rushed - she flagged issues early rather than leaving them for a last-minute scramble. And given the quality of the work, the price felt very fair; I'd have expected to pay more elsewhere for the same level of attention.

Highly recommend if you need an existing site brought up to date.

Jumped up charges

I know exactly what's wrong. But it's not on their list. So I emailed them. They insist on their own diagnotic at £47.95 plus VAT. Only then, they will consider quoting.

Dear Stuart,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that our process was frustrating.

We appreciate that you had already received a diagnosis elsewhere. However, before quoting for or carrying out a repair, we require one of our partner garages to confirm the fault independently. This helps ensure the correct repair is recommended and allows us to stand behind our work with our 12-month/12,000-mile warranty.

Our diagnostic charge is communicated upfront, and if you'd like to discuss your requirements further or see whether we can help with your repair, our team would be happy to assist.

Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best in getting your vehicle repaired.

Kind regards,
The Fixter Team

Part replacement

Part failed - but they no longer sell the part. I thought it was over, but then they surprised me by going to the ends of the Earth to source and deliver a replacement to me. Thank you so much!

Delivery is very slow

Been using them getting on for 2 years. Major feature has been very slow deliveries. So two weeks after I ordered, I logged on expecting to see it's going to be another week. But find 'order cancelled' - I haven't cancelled it! Final straw, I've gone elsewhere.

Dear Stuart,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how disappointing it must have been to see your order marked as cancelled after waiting for its delivery.

We would like to investigate this matter further. However, based on the information available in your review, we have unfortunately been unable to locate your order in our system.

We have just sent you a request for additional information via Trustpilot. We kindly ask you to reply with your order number or the email address used to place the order so that we can identify your order and look into what happened.

We appreciate your cooperation and hope to have the opportunity to clarify this situation.

Kind regards,

Want me to pay for their check

Just joined. They have 2 meters listed. Told them that's wrong. They want £146 to check if I am telling the truth! On your bike.

Hello Stuart,

Thank you for getting in touch.

I'm sorry to hear you've had cause to complain. As a retailer we bill on behalf of your wholesaler Severn Trent Water, any visits do usually incur a cost however as mentioned to, if the data we hold is incorrect the charge will not apply.

I can see there is now a complaint logged on your account, a case handler will be in touch in the next 10 working days.

Kind Regards

OVERCHARGING

OVERCHARGING
Had a discussion with them and they put me on better pricing.
Next thing, they wanted a bulk sum guarantee. I spoke to them and they removed it.
Started using the card again. 2 months later got charged HIGHER than the price on the pump. Queried it. Oh we added 34ppl for RISK PRICING - didn't tell me ahead of this, just put it on.
I CANCELLED THE ACCOUNT as they are taking absolute liberties and it's nowhere as good as how they sold it to me - a cost reduction not a cost.
Who would willingly overpay?!

Dear Stuart,

We’re sorry to read this and understand why you’re concerned.

Fuel pricing structures can vary depending on risk assessment, credit profile and market movement. Where a risk-related adjustment is applied, this is always be communicated clearly and in line with the agreed terms.

We regret that you feel this wasn’t made clear in your case and that it led to you cancelling your account. That is never the experience we aim to deliver.

If you would like to re-open your account in the future, please reach out to us.

Top service

Lovely folks, especially the two chaps in the second site where I collected my car.
Car was ready and waiting for me, paperwork ready to be completed.
Car was valeted, serviced, washed.
Great car, great friendly service, can't fault them!

Closed the account and returned funds…

Closed the account and returned funds saying broken the Ts and Cs. Not sure where £14 meal money from 10 people breaks them. They won't confirm how it's broken.

So steer well clear of these absolute cowboys.

Edit: email mentioned below hides behind anti money laundering rules to not tell me anything.
My advise stands - steer well clear, in case they randomly close your account, ruining whatever you're planning for. In our case, a few days before this would have thrown a meal for 10 people into chaos.

Screen protector v poor

Screen protector was far from 'completely clear' and inhibited the performance of the fingerprint reader, in addition the screen sensitivity was lowered - wrong keys appearing when typing for instance.

Review of Starling


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Summarily closed the account

Summarily closed the account. After using them for a while, they sent a message that the other director (my missus) needs to get registered on the app to comply with UK legislation. That's not true. I challenged this. They took a massive 9.5 weeks to reply, basically challenging me back to just get it done or they would close the account. I replied challenging that she neither uses banking apps, wishes to use an app, nor do we consider having access on two phones safe should that phone be lost. If one of two directors doesn't ever access the account why would we wish to have that app set up.
Response today - we've closed your account.
Pathetic, miserly response which does nothing but make sure I will tell everyone never to use this bank with absolutely zero customer service.

Rip off merchants.

Treated the call as an opportunity to generate money on things that didn't need doing. When I refused and said to leave, went outside and secretly turned off supply. Would not engage in taking a complaint about the engineer.
