I seriously doubt it!

a review can be left on there also

If you google "carbon weezel" there are many hits where he is peddaling his wares. As TM is #7 on the list with this very topic on TM, perhaps the title should be changed to "carbon weezel scam" or some such topic...

18 months? WTF

btw - looks like he's starting to annoy the boating crowd too:

This topic is now second hit on Google.

In My Opinion, a company that is too busy taking money from people for product they are too busy to produce, then not communicate with those customers to explain or even issue a refund, is a comany that needs this type of exposure, so those considering handing over their hard earned can make at the very least some sort of educated decission. Then, if they have seen and read this, they can make their own mind up on how risky the transaction could be.

As has already been said earlier, mistakes happen, problems arise, and products have flaws, noone is disputing that, but it's how the company responds to and resolves these situations as to whether or not topics like these crop up.

I'm sure there are more happy customers than unhappy ones, but that does not mean the unhappy customers voiced complaints should be silenced and pushed aside. After all the company is not listening.

There will always be one who is unhappy even with every perfectly adequate and functional product, nothing you can do about those (usually easy to spot and dismiss as they are just plain unreasonable), but the fact remains on more than one occassion, money is taken, no product turns up and no response received to any efforts by the customer to contact them.

The same bell rings with the same tone on more than one occassion, enough evidence to be overly causious about buying anything from Carbon Weezel.

No one person is out to defame anyone. A quick google shows there are plenty happy customers, but google also found these.

^^^ Sprox speaks the truth ^^^

I think it is very simple.
Research what action folks took against Morspeed, and learn from their experiences, because (in spite of denials to compare to Morspeed) this doesn't really sound any different. Correction: It does "sound" different because it seems that Morspeed would at least talk to you and give you excuses, the tools in this company just go for the silent treatment.


I am a little confused about their operation however - who exactly is the owner? Nick or Ben?

A director search on google shows Nick to be MD

I seriously doubt it!

I am surprised no one has taken Carbon Weezel to court yet, I am sure it will not be long judging from the experiences quoted in this posting.

BT enquires

1 Worsell initial N listed as Southampton resident

and 1 Popham initial E (parents???) also Southampton

Both with listed numbers and home addresses


Coincidence?

I wrote a whole page, and decided to delete it.

If that is the only response you can come up with, not worth the bother IMO

What about......"Sorry, we fucked up, we are human after all. We are looking at how we deal with these issues so that we will never be in this position in the future. The customer experience will improve. We would like the customer to come back for more. We would like customer to tell their friends how good their buying experience was with Carbon Weezel, so they will look to us for their needs.

Just an observation, and again, my opinion. tell me to fuck off if you wish and i'll say no more, but think about that before you do.

tut, tut

Agree about customer service and complaints etc, but...

I think most people will be able to draw their own conclusions from this thread. Certainly if Carbon Weezel were in touch with their customers as they claim to have been, then I don't think this thread would even exist, draw whatever conclusions you like from that.
