“I ordered an Apple Watch on Black Friday. It was a competitive price which led me to purchase from them. I received the wrong item in the post and when informing smart cellular about this I received and email initially bragging about how fast the delivery was before offering for me to return the item for a replacement.
I phoned the company to ensure a replacement was available as I wanted to ensure that I didn't miss out on the Black Friday deals as if there wasn't a replacement available I would have purchased from an alternative company also proving Black Friday discounts.
I was informed they had my watch and had placed it to the side and informed all of the dispatch team to post it out as soon as they received my watch.
I phoned an emailed multiple times over the course of the following 6 weeks, each time being told they had emailed the returns department but had not received a reply. Over the course of 6 weeks this is clearly untrue.
eventually I was told that my money had been refunded - without me asking for this as I was still hopeful for my Apple Watch.
I am now left without the watch I purchased and have to purchase it at a higher price, missing out on the Black Friday sales. This is clear false advertising and poor customer service causing true financial loss on my side through a now increased price.
Extremely poor customer service throughout.”
“Excellent deal, quality product and great price. Everything was as advertised, if not better. There was a lack of communication initially on order and I did have difficulty contacting, but I did eventually receive an email and from then on everything progressed as described. Would definitely reuse.”

“I ordered an refurb iPhone 16 pink on 31st Dec had issues getting one delivered as after I ordered was told they were having problems getting the pink iPhone 16βs I then cancelled the order after making a few calls on 10th Jan and then received an email to say that it had been despatched, arrived the following day but it was a blue iPhone 16 not a pink as ordered but we decided to keep the blue iPhone 16 as my husband was going to be ordering one soon, the service wasnβt great but to be honest the blue phone we received was in excellent condition, Smart Cellular do have good reviews as a company so mine was just bad luck but I would order again from them”

“I ordered a phone on 28th Dec expecting the next day delivery as it states on the website.
It didn't arrive until 9th Jan. Not a huge wait but I didn't have an email to explain.
I asked for an update and got a basic reply that they had extended their delivery times. Ok, so then I waited, messaged again after a while to be told they were having some issues. I asked for a refund and the same day I had a message to say the phone had been posted.
The phone is good quality and I have no issues with it but the customer service leaves a bit to be desired.”

“Zero Stars. Find another company.
It is unbelievable that the immediate response to a poor review on this site is to ask me to βreach out to a customer service team for assistanceβ as if that will somehow solve their problem. It seems the dozens of unanswered emails and unreturned phone calls since they banked my money in early December count for nothing. The implication that somehow their inability to ship a phone is because I need to do more is breathtaking. They have the order number above, this seems to be the only forum they reply to, so I want them to respond to this post when THEY have done something. Iβll post again in a few days with another review of what they have collectively managed to do. It is probably worth noting that in all my previous reviews for other companies Iβve only ever awarded 5 stars so Iβm hardly a difficult customer.
For the sake of transparency, and in the spirit of their patronising response, Iβve copied my latest email here. It was sent immediately in response to their reply to βreach outβ. Of course, as with all my other other communications with them beyond this Trustpilot site, Iβve heard nothing back despite the elapsed 3 days and their assurance to be in touch within two.
In response to your reply to my comment on Trustpilot.
I've waited since mid Dec for an S23 black pristine phone.
I've emailed and phoned repeatedly and nobody replies or acts to resolve the case.
Please do take this chance to make me a happy customer who feels valued and not conned.
Simply refunding my money at this stage isn't enough after the length of time, frustration at missing Christmas and disappointment of the whole saga.
If not an S23 pristine, then a pristine S23+ or Ultra by way of apology and customer service.
I look forward to a reply and some action on your part before commenting further on Trustpilot to report how you ultimately handled my case. Thank you.”
