Indoor Double Tomato House
This indoor double tomato house is fantastic! The assembly instructions were really precise and easy to understand. The frame is light, so I was able to move it around easily before putting on the cover. I really like how the design allows for easy watering and heat control with the roll-up sections in the cover. It's great for setting up indoors, especially if you're trying to avoid pesky midges or rain like me on the west coast of the Highlands. Just remember to check if the double tomato house can fit through your doorway before assembling it!
Review about: Ecigone
Vape kit purchase
I bought a vape kit from this website not long ago, and I have to say, I'm really impressed. Ordering was easy, customer service was great, and my delivery came quickly. The prices were fair and the product quality was even better than I expected. I can't fault anything and will definitely shop here again in the future.
Review about: Oak World
Oak furniture purchase
I bought some oak furniture from this place and turns out, it's even better quality than I thought! It's way better than the new stuff from that other company. Actually, I would say it's just as good as the older oak furniture from there in terms of quality. Plus, the packaging was done really well to make sure nothing got damaged during delivery. I'm really happy with the quality of the product, especially considering the price I paid.
Review about: Tokyo Laundry
Jacket and shirt
I was really impressed with the quality of the stuff I bought from that shop - they never let me down. The jacket and shirt I got were really nice and well-made, totally worth the money. The delivery was good too, got my stuff on time with no problems at all.
Review about: Addison Lee
Recent Car Booking
I recently booked a car ride to take me from a special event at the Abba Arena to my home in West London. I made the booking a few weeks ago using the app. I was pleasantly surprised when the car arrived early and I got a notification straight away. The car was really comfortable, an electric one, and the driver was so polite which made the journey home really nice. I've always found this service to be super reliable, it never lets me down.
Review about: Garden Street
Hardwood mini greenhouse purchase
I bought a little greenhouse made of hardwood from Garden Street recently and I was generally happy with it. The greenhouse came well wrapped and protected, which made it easy to put all the parts together. Most of the pre-drilled holes matched up, but some of the tiny screw holes for things like hinges and baseplates were not in the right place and I had to drill them again. It was a bit annoying, but the overall quality of the greenhouse was really good. Even though it was more expensive than softwood options, I think the higher price is worth it because of the top-notch quality of the hardwood.
Review about: HealthExpress
Antibiotic purchase from online pharmacy
I recently had to get some antibiotics and decided to use an online pharmacy. It was really easy - all I had to do was fill out a quick questionnaire, and my order was sorted out quickly. I was pleased to get my tablets the next day. This service is great, especially for people who find it hard to see a doctor quickly.
Review about: F. Hinds Jewellers
Watch purchase
I popped into the store the other day to buy a watch, and I must say, I was really happy with the service I got. The chap who helped me out was not only nice but also really clued up about all the watches they had in stock. He listened to what I was after and pointed me towards a watch that was just right for me. The team even checked in on me while I was waiting for my watch to be wrapped up, showing top-notch customer service.
Review about: Stance
Comfortable and stylish socks
I'm a regular customer and I always love the quality and style of the socks I get from this brand. They always fit just right and the colours and patterns are spot on. I can honestly say these are some of the best socks I've ever had. The only thing is, they can be a bit pricey sometimes so I have to think carefully about my budget before buying. But when I do treat myself to a pair, it's always worth it. Thanks for always delivering such great products.
Review about: Aerosus
Recent suspension purchase
My mechanic down at the garage recommended this place to me, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't sure which part I needed for my car's suspension, so I gave their helpline a call, and they were really helpful in pointing me in the right direction. I decided to pay a bit extra for express delivery from Germany, and it arrived just a couple of days later. After putting the part in, I've noticed a big improvement in my car's suspension - and all for a fraction of the cost of the official brand equivalent. If I ever need more suspension parts in the future, Aerosus will definitely be my first choice.
Review about: Soak And Sleep
excellent products, efficient service, reasonable prices
I bought some stuff from the shop recently and I was really happy with the quality of everything. The bedding was top-notch and super comfy, just like they said on the website. The service was quick and easy, which made the whole shopping trip really simple. The prices were fair and the products were great value for money, especially since they were such good quality. Basically, I got everything I wanted in one go and couldn't be more pleased with what I bought.
Review about: Each Moment
Video and cassette digitization
It was such an amazing experience being able to look back on all those old family memories. I had been meaning to get my old videos and mini cassettes digitised for ages, but never got round to it. Each Moment made the whole process really easy and stress-free. They provided a sturdy box to send in my items, which gave me peace of mind that my precious memories were safe. It was hard to say goodbye to them, but I knew they were deteriorating, so it was time to take action.
In just a month, I got a USB with all my original items back. Some of them were almost twenty years old, but Each Moment did an outstanding job preserving and converting them into a digital format. Hearing my dear father's voice again after all these years brought a mix of tears and laughter, as we remembered the good times we had together. I can't recommend Each Moment enough - they went above and beyond my expectations, and I'm so grateful to be able to share and treasure these special family memories forever.Review about: Landmann
BBQ grill
I'm really chuffed with my new BBQ grill. It's top-notch quality and the packaging was really cool. It was a bit fiddly to put together, but the instructions were dead simple to follow. Once I had it all set up, it heated up in no time and cooked everything spot on. I'd definitely give it the thumbs up to all my mates.
Review about: Simply Business
Property insurance renewal
As someone who has been a customer of this company for a while, I have always been happy with the service they provide. However, recently I renewed my property insurance and found a significant mistake in the address details. This mistake could have meant that my property was not insured for a whole year - which is a pretty big deal. Even though I tried numerous times to get an explanation and a fix for the error, all I got in return were feeble excuses and really bad customer service. It's really disappointing to see a company I have trusted for so long not being able to put right a mistake that could have had serious consequences if I had needed to make a claim. So, just a heads up - be careful of going for the cheapest quote, as it could end up costing you your peace of mind and the safety of your property.
Review about: Aspen Woolf
Unwanted spam emails
I got a bunch of spam emails out of the blue from this company, even though I never agreed to hear from them. It was really annoying to keep getting emails from someone I wasn't interested in, and even worse when trying to unsubscribe didn't stop them coming. It was disheartening to see how little they seemed to care about privacy and consent, especially when they say they follow GDPR rules.
Review about: Sky Parking Services
Lounge booking assistance
The team at Sky Parking Services were so helpful when I needed help booking an airport lounge for a group of seven. We exchanged several emails as I was a bit unsure about the details, but they were really patient and kept at it until everything was sorted. They really did more than expected to make sure I was happy with everything. I really appreciate their outstanding service and assistance.
Review about: Click4GAP GAP Insurance
Gap insurance purchase
After I had a car accident, I decided to get gap insurance for some extra protection. I got in touch with this company, like someone recommended, and I was really impressed with the service I got. The person I spoke to on the phone was really nice and they helped me understand everything. They took the time to explain things clearly so I knew what I was getting. The customer service was great overall, and I would definitely suggest this company to anyone looking for gap insurance.
Review about: funnyfuzzy
Non-slip sofa cover purchase
The non-slip sofa cover I bought from this company was a real let-down. They promise a refund within 14 days, but they haven't stuck to their word. I've emailed them loads of times, even sent photos, asking for a refund, but they're just ignoring me. Their idea of only giving me 18% back if I keep the dodgy cover is just not on. The cover itself is rubbish - it crumples up as soon as anyone sits on it, so it's basically useless.
Review about: Dears Pharmacy
Urostomy prescription
I went to Dears Pharmacy to pick up my urostomy prescription, but they wouldn't take any more deliveries from Fittleworth, who was meant to deliver it to my house. I'm away from home most of the week for work, and other pharmacies have always been happy to deliver wherever I am. Dears Pharmacy just couldn't be bothered. Looks like I'll need to speak to my GP about switching to a different pharmacy for my prescriptions now.
Review about: Wellgard
Vitraflora product
I can't believe how great this Vitraflora product is! I used to constantly struggle with thrush, but ever since I started using it, I haven't had any problems at all. It's like magic! And on top of that, my partner has even mentioned that I smell and taste better now. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs help with their intimate flora.
Review about: PeruvianConnection
Clothing sizing
As a customer, I have to say, the catalogue for this brand looks absolutely stunning. The photography is top quality and the locations they use for their shoots are really inspiring. However, when it comes to the clothes themselves, I have to be honest, I was quite let down. The sizes seem to be based on unrealistic models, making it hard for everyday people to figure out what size they need. For instance, the latest model on page 3 of the catalogue, taken in Matera, Italy, looks incredibly tall. This can be really frustrating for customers who just want to buy something they can actually wear comfortably. I think brands should aim to be more inclusive of different body types and offer sizes that reflect real women.
Review about: Shoe Embassy
Ankle boots and shoes purchase
I bought some shoes and ankle boots from that store last year. One of the ankle boots went funky after only a few wears – the zip broke. So, I got in touch with customer service to see if they could fix it or swap it for me. Unfortunately, they weren't very helpful. They said because it had been a while since I bought them, they couldn't do anything under their 6-month guarantee. Even though I pointed out that I hadn't really worn them much, they wouldn't change their minds. It seems like this company isn't too bothered about keeping customers happy or loyal.
Review about: House of Malt
Neighbour's gift bottle
I popped onto House of Malt's website and ordered a fancy gift bottle for my neighbour just before heading back home to Suffolk from Edinburgh on the train. To my surprise, the parcel arrived at my doorstep only a few hours after I did. My neighbour was thrilled and thought I had personally carried it all the way from Edinburgh for them! The packaging was excellent, ensuring that the bottle arrived without any damage. I must say, House of Malt did an amazing job. Massive thanks to them for such a great service!
Review about: Booking
Resolution of last-minute cancellation
I had a last-minute cancellation from a place in Rome on the same day I was meant to arrive, which was really disappointing. I had to find a different place to stay quickly. Thankfully, Booking managed to find me another option with similar features and refunded me the price difference. I was really happy with how efficiently they sorted out the situation.
Review about: YourStride
Safety watch
I absolutely adore my new safety watch! It brings me so much comfort knowing that I can easily call for assistance whenever I need it. It can be a bit daunting being by myself at times, but having this watch on my wrist gives me a sense of security. Plus, it looks super stylish and I enjoy wearing it every single day.
Review about: Vapoholic
My 1st vape order
I received my first vape order really quickly, right on time as they had promised in the emails. There was a small mistake, but they sorted it out really fast with excellent communication.
Review about: XLN Telecom
Troubleshooting WiFi/Laptop/Router Issue
I just want to say a huge thank you for all the hard work you put in to fix the ongoing problem with the slow internet speeds and delayed website loading. Even though we faced some difficulties at the start, you all kept pushing through and finally got everything sorted out. I want to give a special shoutout to Mathew and Jamie for their help.
Review about: The Glow Company
Solar light bulbs
The website was dead easy to use, found what I wanted proper quick. The delivery was pretty rapid, got my solar light bulbs in no time. When I plonked them out in the sun, they lit up like magic! Definitely would shop here again, everything was ace.
Review about: Travelodge
My recent accommodation booking experience
I was really disappointed with the accommodation booking I recently made. The service wasn't honest or clear. Even though they said they had a refund policy, they wouldn't give me my money back when I had to cancel. They didn't seem to care about what their customers needed, which was really frustrating. I would suggest being careful if you're thinking about booking with them in the future.
Review about: Future You
Future Products
I've got these Future Products and they're amazing! They've really helped me stay healthy and strong over the years. I reckon Turmeric, Omega Advanced, Lions Mane Mushroom, and Aternonon Heart are the top picks!
Review about: Just Vitamins
Quality Vitamins
I bought some vitamins from this company recently and I have to say I'm really impressed with their service. The vitamins arrived quickly in a neat little box that fit through the letterbox, which was handy and eco-friendly. The quality of the vitamins was much better than any I've used before, and the caplets were easy to swallow which was a bonus. Being gluten-free, I was happy to see that all the vitamins were suitable for me - that's important!
Review about: Credit Spring
Loan support
Oh my gosh, I was so desperate for some cash and this place totally came to my rescue! They didn't bombard me with loads of difficult questions, which was a relief. The instalments are completely manageable and they have this awesome feature that shows you how much you still owe. It's kind of like a game but with money, so fun! Haha.
Review about: Nevisport
Winter jacket
As a customer at Nevisport, I recently bought a winter jacket and I have to say, it wasn't a great experience. The ordering part was easy enough, but the delivery took much longer than they said it would. I placed my order on 29th January and they said it should arrive in 3 to 7 days. However, even after waiting for several days, my order was still being processed. I even sent them an email on 1st February to ask about my jacket, but never got a reply. It feels like they have only one person doing everything, which is causing delays and bad customer service. They took my money already, but my jacket wasn't even on its way. The lack of communication and honesty was really disappointing.
Review about: Beds
Amazing bed shopping
Oh my gosh, I had such a great time buying a bed from this place! The staff were really friendly and I felt well-informed throughout. The delivery was super quick and the bed is absolutely brilliant. I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends.
Review about: Funky Hampers
Personalised birthday hamper
The hamper I ordered was really nice, just like it looked on the website. But oh boy, the delivery service was a total disaster. I ordered it on a Sunday and paid for standard delivery, but the company used Yodel for delivery. Even though they said it would arrive within a week, it didn't show up until the day after my daughter's birthday. It was so annoying and irritating, especially because I work as a courier too and I know that standard delivery shouldn't be that slow. Yodel had the parcel for 4 days with no updates on the tracking, it was really frustrating.
Review about: mSpy
Quick and helpful customer service
I had a great time with the customer service at this place. They were really fast and helpful in answering all my questions. Even though I wasn't too clued up on the product, they broke it down for me in a way that made sense. I could tell they genuinely wanted to help me, and that was amazing.
Review about: The Hut
Birkenstock EVA Arizona sandals purchase
I bought a pair of EVA Arizona sandals from an online store because I couldn't find the colour I wanted locally in Australia. I placed my order on 14th May and got the sandals on 29th May. The delivery was right on schedule, and the sandals were just like they were shown on the website. The prices were reasonable, and I liked that the packaging was eco-friendly. All in all, my shopping experience with this online store was positive, and I'd definitely think about shopping with them again. Cheers, Alex V.
Review about: Transpennine Express
First class train ticket to Edinburgh
I hopped on a fancy train to Scotland, thinking I'd enjoy a lovely lunch on my return journey. However, they were still serving breakfast, so I had to wait for ages only to receive a cold bacon roll. Can you believe they even ran out of them? They suggested reheating it in the microwave, but I definitely said no. That's just disgusting, isn't it? I mentioned it to the train staff, but their response was, "Well, it's complimentary, so tough luck." Honestly, you can't even voice your displeasure about poor food in first class!
Review about: AX Paris
Summer tops
I bought these tops and they were really nice and fitted well on me. They were great quality too. But then I had to send one back because it didn’t look good on me. I found it so annoying because it ended up costing more to send it back than it did to have it delivered in the first place. It’s just not fair, is it? I don’t think I’ll order from them again. I don’t want to risk having to send things back in the future, you know?
Review about: sleepee
Social media ad purchase
I wasn't sure about getting stuff from ads on social media at first, but I'm really pleased I gave these supplements a go. The Collagen and joint pain ones I got were great and have really helped me feel better. What really impressed me was the fantastic customer service. They were so helpful, quick to reply, and made sure I was happy at every stage. Overall, I'm really chuffed with my experience with sleepee.
Review about: Evolution Slimming
First time order, fast delivery, reasonable prices
I was really pleased with how quickly my first order arrived. The things I bought were a good price and the quality was impressive. I'll definitely be shopping here again.
Review about: The Good Prep
Quick and Easy Meal Prep
The Good Prep makes meal prepping for the week a breeze. They've got a great range of meals to choose from, which can suit different diets like bulking or cutting. I love how they offer so many choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The meals aren't just delicious, they're also seasoned just right with amazing flavours that make me want more. My favourites are the BBQ pulled chicken and rice, vegan pancakes, and rigatoni bolognese.
Review about: HIVITAL
Vitamins for 2 years
I've been buying vitamins from this website for about 2 years now. They often have good offers, and I've actually recommended it to quite a few people. A few of them have also ended up making purchases and have been satisfied. The orders always arrive pretty quickly, so I would definitely recommend it to others.
Review about: Cosmetis
Exciting shopping experience with Cosmetis
Having decided to take skin care as a priority in my life, I also made it a necessity to acquire the best collection of cosmetics and accessories that are available. I knew there were hundreds or even thousands of cosmetic brands out there but I needed to choose one which would stand out of the rest by the quality of their products. I came in touch with Cosmetis. Their Products were the perfect match for me ranging from their deodorants, sunscreen, powder, foundation, brushes, eyeliners, and many more. They were able to attend to my desires. And I am also glad I did not see any side effects or skin complications after using their products.
Review about: Look Fabulous Forever
Amazing Products
Amazing!!! I must compliment Look Fabulous Forever for the ease of ordering online and dealing with problems. Look Fabulous Forever offers a wide range of different types of cosmetic products and accessories suitable for older women including face prime, foundations, concealers, blushers, face powders, colour neutralizers, eye primes, eye shadows, lid colours, brows, eyeshade trio, lipsticks, lip primes, lip shines, eye makeup removers, cleansing lotions, moisturizers, skin care systems, brushes, curlers, and bags.
But my testimony was that on my 40th wedding anniversary, I placed an order for range of different cosmetics products which I was to use for the ceremony. To my amazement, Look Fabulous Forever made my day a fabulous one by delivering my orders the exact day.
I want to use this medium to share to people that Look Fabulous Forever is a real and original brand and the offer amazing productsReview about: OnBuy
Smeg hand blender pastel blue
I recently ordered from OnBuy for the first time after coming across it when I was searching for some kitchen appliances. I was nervous to make my first purchase as I rarely shop somewhere that I haven’t heard of before. After coming across the blender that I wanted at a much cheaper price than Amazon and eBay I decided to take the plunge. I’m so glad I did. My husband doesn't rate my smoothies making skills just yet, but I'm working on it!
The order process was really simple and I was given peace of mind as I was able to pay through Paypal meaning that I would be able to get my money back safely if needed - I didn’t have to worry thought. I was kept informed as to when my seller had despatched my item and my order confirmation showed me where to contact the seller if I needed to, which is handy as sometimes marketplaces aren’t so obvious that they’re marketplaces. I found the website to be clear enough for me to use, including a quick checkout process.
During a pandemic I was expecting my delivery to be delayed, however my order arrived in good time and good condition, so I was more than impressed with my OnBuy experience, I would recommend for people to check the seller reviews and remember you are purchasing through a marketplace! Thank you OnBuy, I will definitely be back!I bought a game of dobble to keep my family entertained and it arrived next day which is beyond my expectation, I have recommended onbuy to my friends and I look forward to buying again
I find on buy excellent .prices .
Service. Packaging.quick deliveries .
And would recommend any one
To use this service nice one on buy
10 out of 10 .and thank you xI have bought a few times from On Buy. Have no complaints about the products, packaging, price .and quality of goods I have ordered or the delivery times.
Easy to order, speedy delivery, quality goods, no nonsense. 10 out of 10
I ordered a natural product to help with sleep and anxiety. Item arrived quicker than expected , and the packaging was really good . Normally things are just put in a box with some brown paper . This was wrapped in bubble wrap and very well packaged.The company sell a great range of products , so will definitely look them up next time i need something.
I ordered digital arm blood pressure monitor some months ago, and what I received was a wrist monitor totally in chinese which was not what I ordered and also chinese no use in the uk. Sent back by royal mail and still no refund
Hi guys I bought a pair of air Jordan 1 for £80 just wondering if they are real
I don't know for sure but if they do arrive tell us if they are good
Hadn't used this site before was abit wary but my product came in excellent condition was very impressed would recommend this site to everyone
I have only recently discovered OnBuy and from what I have seen and experienced recently I anticipate that they will be taking over the market from eBay and other major suppliers. I will certainly be making use of their services.
Bought a blood pressure machine very fast delivery machine was a bargain and very easy to buy. I would sure shop again as the service I received was fantastic
Thanks to al staff.Can i just ask why it says free delivery when i put item in basket,but at checkout it's over £8 for delivery??
Great price for record case I bought, and free delivery. Arrived super quickly and was well packaged.
Very pleased.Has any1 bought a bed from this site?
To be honest I'd never heard on OnBuy before but the hydraulic crimper came up on Google at a great price. Decided to take a chance and placed order on a Friday night and the crimper arrived the following Tuesday. The crimper was exactly as described so will check out On Buy first for future purchases.
I have never heard of OnBuy before but what a find! Brilliant and quick service will definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend
Review about: Deichmann
Graceland shoes
I had been looking for a pair of shoes to match a dress I shall be wearing to my niece's wedding in September. My sister sent me a photograph of a pair she had seen in the Crawley branch, however although they had the range in the Uxbridge branch, they did not have the colour I wanted. However I have to commend the staff who went to every possible trouble they could to track down the specific type and to order them for me. They could not have been more obliging and helpful and it was done with grace and consideration. My shoes arrived three days later in perfect condition and I have even managed to find a bag to match, so I am delighted with my purchase. Thank you.
Graceland sandals, brown - love these sandals and colour look quite dressy. Lady at the counter was lovely, will go to Canterbury branch again as soon as I can. Thank you for great shoe selection.
I think some shops need professional and nice staff there are some exception where their behaviour and attitude is not for working with customers
Shopped at the Doncaster branch. A very helpful assistant. I wear size 10 shoes which are extremely difficult to find. I shall definitely go there again.
went to Truro today went in to look for shoes when I found what I wanted went to pay one assistant in front of me dealing with a client ,or I thought she was, no one else waiting, 2 others on their phones , just taking about pictures on their phones. no one bothered to speak just about to walk out and leave when they bothered to serve me. nothing spoken about keeping me waiting the worst serviced I have received in years. good job was 70miles from home wont be going there again.

Review about: Shaw Academy
Nutrition
Really enjoyed the course content find it interesting and well thought out with the slides, and am excited for the next lessons. My one pitfall is that once I’d finished the first lesson I wanted to immediately go onto the second, but because I hadn’t booked it I couldn’t till tomorrow
Review about: Shaw Academy
All Tool Kits for various Courses | Life Time Membership | E Certificate (Select Ones only).
At the outset, thanks to AirTel - India ISP provider for offering it's Platinum Members Free Membership for 1 year, which I actually encountered by 'Chance'! Initially, no payments or subscriptions were required since I was a AirTel’s Premium Member, except for buying the Tool Kits, which was very much affordable at that point of time. - A year back, somewhere around June 2019.
Frankly speaking, I was never aware of any such Online Shaw Academy though I was aware of few existing ones, the popular ones in their respective domain(s).
Earnestly jumped into the fray my most desired | favoured courses. I was indeed contemplating to undertake from other Online Institutes that I earmarked and identified after doing the necessary research about them. But Shaw Academy (SA) turned out to be more economical than those Globally reputed Institutes that I had identified, also the advantage of Online, Free Scheduling - Time & Week | 2 Classes per week made it more attractive proposition.
Gladly I started my journey with (1) Social Media Marketing, after attending for a week on to my classes on SMM, added Digital Marketing since there is an overlapping and commonality between the two. It was easy to understand and whatever was missing in one was actively compensated by the other. Additionally, opted for ‘Leadership & Management’, since that's what I basically endured and practised as an avid professional for more than three decades in Healthcare industry. That made my fruitful engagement for the entire week.
At some point of time I even completed English, Blogging & Content Writing, and a few 'On Demand’ classes too.
‘Why’ or ‘What’ made ‘Me’ decide to opt for so many lessons:)
(1) I was reasonably aware that I have 365 days of Free Access and I can learn to Up-skill myself whatever possible. Knowledge can never go waste, it remains with you forever! And in today’s transformational world one can never guess which talent or knowledge would be required and can act as an precursor adding to your future endeavour. Hence ‘Learn – Unlearn - & Relearn’ constantly is my dictum and motto!
(2) For all the good reasons the course overview as far as basics are concerned, was far better than expected. At least, you & me are made aware of all the basic components and then if one is interested, may go further refreshing or even towards more Advanced level, which I did.
(3) What better choice does one has to learn under One roof numerous subjects of personal choice and interest!
(4) Most of the Educators are Extremely good, with special mention of Caitlin Hogg for all Marketing related and Christopher MacNulty for Leadership & Management.
(5) I am made to understand that the ‘Graphic Design’ course is one of the most highly rated and it’s Educator too is extremely knowledgeable.
(6) Well I do acknowledge that not even a single course I undertook are factually Online, mostly recorded, but you get that feeling that you are ‘Actively Online’ and moreover, mostly get to interact with the ‘Bot’, which often is not able to answer most of the questions one has. Redirects it to the email, which unfortunately, till date I could never get an response directly from any of the favourite Educator.
(7) What is important is the personal “Engagement”! Even though we understand that it’s not Virtual Reality, let’s accept, with a pinch of salt.
(8) Sending constant emails has its own advantage – it’s a constant reminder to us, and this conditions our mind and sets a routine, that we are supposed to attend our classes, like our College | University days. If anyone of us really think that it’s a constant annoyance by bombarding with number of mails that fills our inbox, then simply stop looking at it and go and delete or place it in Junk Box. If done repeatedly 3 -5 times it will thereafter start going directly to the ‘Junk’, automatically. Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning in particular (AIML comes into play).
(9) Resources like The Tool Kits, Bonus Lessons, Lecture Slides, Class Notes, Quizzes and Module Assignments are all extremely beneficial. The recordings help to go again and again, revise repeatedly. As if an readymade E-Book for us.
(10) For E-Certificates in my personal capacity and opinion, I shall opt only the Final – Advanced ones, else with the recent increase in their Diploma E-Certificates it’s become quite ‘Expensive’, if not unaffordable!
(11) As recently as of March - April 2020, after the worldwide lockdown was imposed in ~187+ countries thereby leading to an enormous surge in every online academic related activity, Shaw Academy had undergone noticeable transformation in terms of upgradation, pricing and designs layout. The last one maybe made it more attractive and even their quantifiable volumes of emails have increased. Their Facebook page interactions which till recently; non active has suddenly quadrupled may be, because of the simple reason that human online interactions have increased tremendously, almost clocking ~ 90%. It’s a demand and supply scenario.
(12) To sum up in all its entirety, there are every good reasons to look for the good – positive reasons and also there are the flip sides. Now, one has to weigh and measure which are advantageous verses the ones that are not and act accordingly, depending upon the cost factor. It’s not an universal phenomenon, and neither applicable to all course applicants.
(13) My personal suggestion: Like the ‘Life time Membership’ offered earlier, a ‘Onetime’ upfront payment for the all the Module Certificates may again be offered | revived, which would be extremely beneficial in the long run for harnessing existing student participants and taking up every module assignment challenge in right earnest.
(14) Moreover, one would continue learning more and keep exploring newer courses, expanding their respective horizons. A Direct goodwill and publicity (A Word to mouth publicity) will be created.
My own irresistible, passionate drive for learning and also because of my being tech savvy, coupled with high degree of engagement in scientific academic orientations I am privileged to acknowledge that after enjoying a gap of 2-3 months, whereby I was engaged in other online tech orientation I have again enrolled myself for (a) Web Development & (b) Mobile App Development. I am actively considering adding Web Design too since again like DM & SMM the two are interrelated and participative, each complimenting the other.
The Internet is probably exploding by its high level of dynamism and unique possibilities being offered, churning, sharing intuitive, interactive knowledge & information. It depends on individuals what we can and should embrace to enhance our knowledge, beliefs and wisdom! So, choose what you like and like what you choose!!!
I truly admire Shaw Academy and it’s courses (What I had undertaken so far) and more importantly the ‘Contents’ which has helped me at least to explore further. I also acknowledge the fact that within the realm of its possibilities and limitations it’s been a very satisfying and encouraging journey so far. Thrown open lots of opportunities to remain inspired!!!
Thanks so much & enjoy the learning journey……………

Sujitfound interesting but found the one click purchasing unnerving. I have accidentally spent £49.99 on a certificate before even doing the course completely by accident. The lessons themselves seem good but I am still waiting to hear whether I will get a refund. If you do be careful about clicking ANY links
I never knew online school could be this easy and smooth. Everything so far is at my fingertips, I'm also glad that I have the option to go back and review classes and ask question during lectures.
It's worth my time. I'm taking 3 courses and the explanations from my educators are always so helpful and easy to understand. Thank you Shaw Academy for the 1 Month free trial ☺️; I wish to get an additional free month(June), but wishes are not horses????. Shaw Academy has been awesome so far, can't wait to complete my 1st modules.
It’s been a wonderful and great opportunity from Shawacademy , with the class I have attended, I can say I am so pleased and well clear about the courses on Diploma In Project Management classes have attended was the best so far. And right I can’t just wait to attend the next class because I have been opened to so many things on Project Management and after these, I am going sign in for another course. I have started recommending the Shawacademy to my friends and some people I know, and I am sure they will be willing to be part of the great Shawacademy as soon as possible. Thank you Shawacademy I am one of the luckiest students.
I'm overwhelmed and really lack the right words to use in appreciation to this platform name shawacademy. It behooves me that skills acquisition can be acquired via online learning at any part of the world especially as kudos as shawacademy online platform.
Their webinars are interacting and interesting with right and precise graphics to aid explanations. During this period of lock down I find it most and enticingly immersed in learning with this platform which has made me to enroll for different courses to occupy at most times with their webinars.
I'm addicted to learn from this platform and also introduced it to my friends also to benefit.
I don't have anything substantial token to appreciate with that can measures a quota of their kind gesture and knowledge acquisition they have impacted to thousands if not millions of people including me than to say a big heartfelt THANK YOU
my best regards to all the key pivot players of this great online citadel.
Once again THANK YOUWhy are there 2300 reviews for Shaw on this website and no more than 10 for any other company? I'm looking up reviews before joining but that seems suspicious
Wonderful style and very professional really. I am beginner and understood very nicely.
I reluctantly signed up for the photoshop course and to be honest, the first two lessons have been really captivating. I find it so easy to assimilate the lessons.
It's an amazing experience..
For me in a nutshell Shaw Academy is simply the best among many online schools
For me in a nutshell Shaw Academy is simply the best among many online schools
This is a great opportunity that you have created for everyone equally. Thank you
Like many others, I too was caught out by the 'one click' trick. I find it shabby in this day and age of transparency. I clicked on the workbook link to find out more, and suddenly I receive an email saying 'thanks for your purchase.' And don't expect a refund, you won't get one. The same goes for their unsubscribing process .... you really have to search. Great companies never do these two things. It's a shame, because I think the product itself is excellent. But I've opted out because it makes me not trust the company.
So far everything seem straight forward and as expected for an online course. I am looking forward to learning all there is to know from the comfort of my home. This will advance my current skills to another level. To be fair, the one thing that made me a little uneasy was the payment process. It wasn't as clear that there is 2 options for the same things, which you could easily make a mistake and double pay. Overall the courses seem to be on point with information.
So far, so good. One lesson in one course does not reflect on the whole, but we are off to a good start. Easy log, good communication and clear, concise teaching. Tool kit should be included or at least mentioned before enrollment.
Shaw Academy is great its give a lot understanding about my courses and a lot of idea and that i will share it to may sibblings.
Feeling very comfortable with course material, flexy schedule allows to learn at my own pace.So far good and lets see ..
I'm loving my photography, web design and coding courses, I'm just struggling paying 50 quid a month for it due to being on benefits.
Thus far, I am finding the material for my online course amazing. What I am not liking is constantly being bombarded with reminders to order tool kits and certificates for additional fees. If you are going to offer a month free, then allow the extras for that month so that one can experience the full deal. It would remove the the feeling of "not trusting the company" I had read many reviews about issues with unsuccessful refunds and have now read issues with single hit purchases. The company/site needs to be more open with options and what those options include. Just be transparent ! Nobody likes to be dealing with "shady" companies. Given all of that, I will continue with my course hoping that I won't have any "fee" issues. Should I. I will not have nothing to do with ShawAcademy again.
I have had one lesson so far and am on a free trial. I also feel uneasy about the 'Buy now with one click' appear everywhere. Also I attended a class following the link sent to me at my scheduled time and then received, 3 emails, two voicemails, two text messages to say I had missed the class. 1. I did not miss my class. 2. Extremely overwhelmed and pressured and frustrated with the different platforms of repeated communication. Not shining a good light on the academy or selling itself for future purchases from me.
Please give some clarity with all the pop up about purchasing of toolkits. Let me know what is free as to what is being advertised. The every minute money pops is confusing. I cant open anything to do assignments without money pops. Please clarify. Every thing else is great....only that constant money dealings makes it looks very bogus and suspicious
I'm on a trial for the Project Management course, which was marketed as free. This is more of a review for me, so I thought it would be perfect. However, I've been barraged by popups and notifications to buy the resource toolkit and the certification since first login, neither of which I need, but apparently how they make their money. There are emails and texts when you don't actually miss your class as if its just the default expectation that you will. Its unclear that if you miss a class you can just watch the recording afterwards, but I had no problem doing so. All in all, if you can put up with the annoying inaccurate notifications and pushy sales tactics, you will likely learn something.
Hi guys. Did anyone managed to get a refund for those 'one click away purchases'? I am not even aware of accidentally clicking it and I received no purchase email whatsoever. I only noticed money missing from my back account.
My experience with Shaw Academy is very fruitful because it taught me a lot about the course that I am and she used the most effective means to make me understand the different factors that make up the course that I chose. So, I can say that I will be fit in the field after lessons. Thank you Shaw Academy !!!!!
Writing a negative review on here & on Trustpilot should help you get a refund, I am still trying...
Trying to get a refund still, what a scam
Its easy to understand. Great module
Shaw academy has been good, still in my first module, but I'm yet to see it's awesomeness
I am too is still awaiting for a refund who they declined to give me for an accident one click purchased. I didnt get any confirmation plus i didnt need that certificate, i dont even have it on hand. I have reported SHAW ACADEMY to ACTION FRAUD please guys do it as well. Atleast maybe this company will be banned in UK as it scammed a lot of money from people.
My experience with Shaw Academy was very nice. Online class seems like a physical interactive class. The facilitator broke down the module into little chunks to grasp easily. Shaw Academy is the way to go .
The best learning app! Shaw Academy has so many courses and the best educators. I am having awesome experience with the app.
It so good????????????????
I just finished module 3 and so far have enjoyed the classes. What is disappointing is that I’ve been bombarded with unnecessary text messages and emails stating that I’m either late or I’ve missed my class all together. I’ve been to everyone and even sent a screen shot to show I was in class and instructor said goodbye. I’m also confused by all the emails and texts about the toolkit. I did purchase already and still continually feel like I’m being harassed. As for certification/diploma...shouldn’t we have the opportunity at the end of course to get one instead of after every module?? The harassment may force me to back out from a class that I like.
At first it was great. I completed Mod 1 in the free trial. For genuine reasons I couldnt continue and went through the long cancellation process. I received a confirmation of cancellation but a few weeks later I was charged the monthly fee. After various emails they were NOT going to refund but did offer me additional options so i decded to give it ago and see if I could complete the course. I was given a free toolkit - I clicked on a open now button and it charged me. Email a complaint agian and was told I would get a credit, Credit didnt appear so have contacted credit card company. For good will I chased them up about refund and a different advisor told me in no uncertain terms 'they do not refund' and tried to offer me other 'free items' most of which I already have. I now do not trust this company and I am too uneasy to continue my learning with them - that i have effectively paid for, as you do not know when/what you will be charged for.
It is a shame as the course is great and easy to use but they do not refund even when you cancel memebership or have two of something which you wont use so this makes them untrust worthy. :-( They also told me I have signed the t&cs, which yes I did but I was well within the t&Cs, I quoted there t&cs to them via copy and paste to prove I was right and they said I was wrong with no jusitfication. Please beware only use if you are happy to pay for everything!!Shaw Academy is really good. Today was my first class and I learnt alot. The lesson was broken down although rushed. I'm yet to see and learn more.
Quite surprised that their prices are premium but the courses are outdated. I decided to learn Excel on Shaw Academy and once I started the course realised it was for Excel 2013 and I have Excel 2019 installed on my computer. Quite a lot has changed in this period so Shaw academy should update their courses before asking people to sign away their credit card.
Me experience with Shaw academy has been great. Even if I consider cost, the free tutorials at the beginning has given me I taste I won't want to lose. The classes have been interesting. Tutors are highly knowledgeable. I have enjoyed every moment at Shaw academy.
I'm on m third lesson for web development and mobile app development and finding the classes great. For someone without any knowledge of coding, it really gives a lot of insight into the basics and a lot of explanation, wether through the videos or through the free available notes.
It is however very annoying that they have one click buy set up for tool lits and certificates, that go straight to your account without even allowing you to go in to check what they actually contain, so be very careful about clicking anything that doesn't specify they were free. Thankfully my card blocked the payment for that, as apparently a number of people have had issues with this without refund.
Constant emailing and messaging and call reminders are very annoying, however useful for a procrastinator.
Also, I have received a notification for a missed classed which is not true, not even telling me which one I actually missed. I have rescheduled it as there is no easy option to tell them I haven't actually missed any, so I'm hoping that works.
I'll update the review further along my courses.Gran plataforma, dejo este mensaje en español pues es mi idioma nativo y para que mas personas de habla hispana sepa de shawacademy, por ahora estoy tomando un curso de Gestión de Proyectos y me experiencia ha sido muy buena, los videos contienen explicaciones detalladas y muy amenas, recomiendo navegar por el sitio y explorar los cursos disponibles.
sahw academy has been an awesome host since the beginning , the teachers did not let me slow down for a minute always on top of everything for the student to finish the course thank you shaw academy
First Lesson went really well good instructors and class structure I would add subtitles to the video lessons for the hearing impaired and the non english spoken users but its a great option
I have only attended 2 lessons on DIPLOMA in Social Media Marketing. Of all the online classes I have attended,none has been as interesting,smooth and well explanatory as Shawacademy's. So in depth and simple to understand.
second unit was very good everything is going fine
Shaw academy is doing fine, I love the presentation.
Did my best to first lesson..I'm a little confused what the toolkit and other needed programs to actually get hands on..
It was not as difficult as some other online courses ive taken. I like it so far I'm a artist and trying to expand and grow potential business..so I hopefully can use knowledge to create beautiful art and financial aspirations..Awesome experience !
The training on leadership management was well understood. I am still observing, I will get the tool kit after some weeks
First class was quite interesting. Lots of things I didn't know. I am not a graphic designer but always had an interest in learning and/or becoming one. Even looked into attending a school.
I agree with all other reviews, the One-Click is unnerving and not fair. We should be allowed to decide whether we want to purchase something or not instead of just clicking one time and being charged for something we may not want or may not necessarily need. That is a deterrence and a turn off to recommending this program to others. PLEASE FIX THAT!What a wonderful class! Great teacher, great course. Easy to access. I appreciate Shaw virtual presentations.
Thus was my first class and I really enjoyed it. The teacher was very good at engaging the class and asking questions!
Shaw academy all the way.
I have attended 2 class so far... It's been a amazing experience... The way of teaching is very nic..
Today was my first class and i enjoyed every bit of it. The instructor was elaborate and also made sure that everyone is carried along. I earnestly look forward to my next class. Thank you Shaw academy for this great opportunity to learn easily.
5 ???? for Shaw Academy, my first class was very interesting and very educative.
Very good
I feel even better than any other online course I have attended i have a great time to improve my skills through your online class and much love you show on very important thing I noticed that you gave much of examples with videos that was much interesting and catchy to understand -thank you ❤️
So far I've just taken the first module in Digital Marketing which was ok although I did feel maybe it could have somehow been slightly more interactive because it's hard to hold your attention for almost an hour when communicating quite a lot of information.
Like many others here, I've been less impressed by the continual bombardment of emails, sms messages and reminders from the app to buy the additional toolkit or the eCert. Thankfully I havent signed up for the whatsapp or FB messenger reminders that have also been offered!
I'm also very wary of the constant pop ups and buttons for one click purchases.
I agree with other comments saying that if you offer a 1 month free trial then all aspects should be given for free and not have these add ons as a way to make more money.
Will proceed with cautionMy experience at Shaw Academy was great. Despite the fact that i was unable to pay for my tool kits before the commencement of the class lesson I really appreciate that i was given opportunity to attend the lessons.
It was very interesting, interactive and educative. I recommend Shaw Academy platform for many more people to learn from their expertise.I am finding the material for my online course amazing.
What I am not liking is constantly being bombarded with reminders to order tool kits and certificates for additional fees.

Given all of that, I will continue with my course hoping that I won't have any "fee" issues.Aside from the one-button insta-purchase, I think the course are easy to understand and follow. I also had an issue where only half the screen being presented is visible on my browser so I am not able to see what's being presented.
Great job show academy your lesson is so good
I feel like the first day at school , I am learning project management and it was good introduction. Hoping for successful course completion
I just ended my very first class in Excel I was pleased with the pace and clarity of the teacher I view that I will learn a lot and look forward to soon pay for other classes in the near future Thank you for this amazing opportunity...
Very interesting course...
Avoid this company at all costs. I’ve had an extremely negative experience. After the first lesson of the 4-week trial I decided that the course was not for me. I cancelled immediately, the tutor who called who goes by the name Nathan called me and I let him know that I wanted to cancel and he explained to me how to do so on the app. I cancelled and stopped receiving any calls from the company, if I were subscribed I would have received calls and texts to let me know I had a lesson etc. This stopped so I know for a fact that I cancelled. This occurred on the 31st of July a month later on the 30th of August I was charged £50, my account was reactivated without my consent. I contacted customer service over the phone who were extremely unhelpful and I also emailed the billing address they still have not replied to me. Please avoid at all costs.
This was clearly written by someone from the company. DON'T BELIEVE IT! this place will still your money! DON'T ENROLL! FREE TRIAL IS A SCAM!!!! TOOLKITS PURCHASE BUTTONS ARE A SCAM!
They will take your money without authorizartion and you'll never see it again!!!!
TERRIBLE PLACE!!!!Scammers only after your money
I feel utterly disgusted by the shaw academy, after cancelling my payments, they have continued to take money from my account. be warned this company is a scam just want your hard earned money then will not give it back to you.
I did not take any paid lessons after the free trial.Card details. Is that normal for a free trial course?
Review about: Shaw Academy
On a trial subscription
I was excited to take up this opportunity and just signed up last week. So far, I have taken a few classes and I am quite impressed. It's flexible, detailed and fun.
The only problem I am currently having is that I accidentally clicked on the one-click purchase and sadly, ended up paying for something that I do not even need as I was just exploring the site. I emailed couple of times and still have not heard back from anyone in this regards. It will be great to have more improved customer service and hopefully I get a refund and if making a purchase, will pay for something that I need.
i agree stephanie, i have made at least 5 more purchases since my first one some months back and i nearly always go to onbuy first now to look at prices
