Was kept informed all through the process. Hitch with delivery (teenaged delivery driver didn't bother to ring and just put card through the door). Company chased this up immediately and got it sorted. It's when things don't go perfectly that you see how good a company really is.
I have had dealings with this company previously and found their technical support to be absolutely first class. Their website and product range are excellent and they are always helpful and willing to answer questions before or after purchases. However, the reason for the very poor score relates to their policy on returns for refunds or exchanges. In spite of the many '14 Day Buy and Try' notices on their webpages, you need to read the words very carefully. I tried to return a camera on the day that I received it as I realised it was not suitable for the purpose for which it was intended. Networkwebcams.co.uk totally refused to exchange or refund the item because I had opened the box and tested the product - even although it was only once and for a matter of less than an hour. The print on their page says, 'Returned items must reach us in stock condition, i.e. unmarked, unopened, unused and undamaged. Any factory seals must be intact. If a returned item reaches us outside the seven day return period or if the item reaches us marked, opened, used, damaged or with broken seals, we may reject it and no refund may be given.' So how can a company dealing with items such as these expect consumers to know if a purchased item is suitable without opening it and trying it? This is the second time that I have written this Trustpilot review as Networkwebcams.co.uk have tried to block an original review I wrote on very fatuous grounds and I am sure they will try to block this one too. I wasn't aware that only positive reviews were what was required. My comments are true and accurate and I do not consider this unreasonable as I have also identified some positive features of the company. However, please be very careful about placing an order with them unless you are totally sure that the item is 'fit for purpose' as you don't get any second chances.
good communication from Webcams with good honest advice. Easy to order and deliver came quite quickly
Slick order process and support who know what they're talking about.
Picking a camera was a breeze. Once ordered, I was amazed when my order arrived the very next day.
What more do you really want from an online retailer? Low prices, easy to buy, fast delivery, well packaged. The range of products is extensive. I will be using again.
Purchased a camera on the basis that it had certain features as described on the website. But when I received the goods I asked customer support and they said it was incorrectly advertised online.
This company does what it says, when it says and then provides good backup.
I will deal with them again.
Immediate answer to any question, fast delivery, good prices, pro-level products.
Strongly recommended as supplier of high-grade IP cameras.
The bl-c210 is a tidy little camera. Good range of movement and excellent image quality. The active x plug though working in safari on osx does not give you sound.
All in all a good little camera
I have had several orders filled without a hitch, good pricing and smooth delivery.
One catch to watch is that some cams are delivered with UK power plug hard fixed to the adapter. Requires rework in that case. So check before buying, they are quite helpful and easy to reach.
Helpful, informed and professional.
An 'Amazon' that you can 'phone for advice.
Excellent service and price, extremely fast delivery - will use again.
Third time I have placed orders with Networkwebcams and have never been disapointed.
Will most definitely use them again for any webcam requirement.
Quick, no nonsense, knowledgeable team. Lightning delivery, professional service. Good price points, easy to deal with.
I needed to buy a high res security webcam and didn't know which one to choose. I got great advice from customer service, and fast delivery.
The site is easy to navigate and easy to find all the options you need.
1st time customer very pleased with speed of delivery and communication. !
Highly recommend
First time I used this company. I purchased two network cameras. Prices where THE cheapest, what’s more got FREE next day delivery, what’s more, one of the cameras (Axis) has a promotion of free 32GB MicroSD and I thought I will get a cheap brand, and to my surprise I got a well-known brand (Verbatim). All in all, I am a very happy customer, and to Network Webcams, PLEASE keep up this level of service and soon you will beat all other rivals.
No fuss, all as expected. Perfect service.
Good website and telephone service. Excellent choice of products with full descriptions to enable choice of camera to meet individual needs. My product was delivered the next day.
Seems to be the only company in whole Europe that had the Sony Ch-220 camera in stock. Could speak to a "real" person, who was also very friendly and competent. Any time again. Kind regards, Michael. Vienna Paint.
Struggled to set up camera but the excellent tech support helped me sort it all out.
Purchased two Lilin HD IPR712 night vision IP cams in November 2012 . Arrived promptly ok. However was unhappy with picture quality of one cam. Raised concerns with Ntwkwbcams-uk on 8 Jan 2013 and sent assorted screenshots comparing 720P HD cam in question with an old 0.3 MPix Trendnet. The Trendnet pics were crisper than the Lilin! They sent my email & pics to Lilin. Was informed on 14 Jan that Lilin (on 11th) judged there to be NO FAULT with my cam. Emailed Ntwkwbcms-uk again on 17 Jan re-expressing disappointment with pic quality. Emailed them again on 4 Feb stating I wanted to return cam. They replied on 7 Feb saying they're waiting on Lilin to respond. Emailed again on 8 Feb expressing frustration at delays all round and dissatisfaction with "customer unfriendly" return policies and overall avoidance of responsibility of Ntwkwbcams-uk. They reply 12 Feb recommending return DIRECTLY to them now instead of manufacturer. Cam posted to them 13 Feb and received 15 Feb. They email on 20 Feb to say their tests show cam IS faulty and offer replacement. Latter arrives 25 Feb and......ITS THE WRONG FOCAL LENS version cam..matter still unresolved. Summary: 7 weeks from initial concerns of 8 Jan until today 25 Feb I'm still without a properly functioning cam.
I will say on a positive note that they were always very polite and helpful on the occasions when I phoned them but I feel I had to drive this issue.
Over the phone their help with the sale was much appreciated. The efficiency with supply and delivery was faultless.
It was our first order with Network Webcams and with the help and service, we will be using them again, Many Thanks
Correct working company and webshop.
Fast answer when any questions.
If there's any problem with delivery customer services contacts you
I used Network Webcams 4 years ago, I bought a YCAM outside cam and shell 4 years ago and its still working fine. Decided to buy another 4 years later for extra security and again easy to set up worked straight out of the box RJ45 cable and Wifi 100% perfect.
Very cost effective solution to external or internal security.
Thanks Network Webcams for a fast and efficient service.
Rob Corlett was just fantastic. Customer service was second to none. Found the link to his company via the AXIS website and all my troubles were solved. Found the part number, got me a quote and the camera was ordered the very next day. Received the order next day delivery. EXCELLENT
In short: I prefer ordering camera's at Network Webcams instead of ordering it in Holland. Better service and they do what they say and it is not more expensive sometimes including the transport costs.even cheaper
Phoned to see whether they had the camera in stock. Ordered one and it was delivered to the North of Scotland within 48 hours. Same good service again a week later.
For my first project of this type I wanted a mid-range outdoor security camera that I could stream live to a website. Though I work in IT I hadn't done an installation like this before. Over several days I discussed the project with Ian, his advice was invaluable, which is why I bought from NetworkCameras.
Thank you...
I got the item I wanted at the best price online. Network Webcams do not always have the lowest advertised prices. But they will always try to price-match and their expertise, efficiency, prompt delivery times and after-sales technical support are second to none. This is why I've purchased so much stuff from them over the years and am minded to do so again the next time I need something in the IP camera line. I can highly recommend this company.
I have used Network Webcams now on several occasions to supply IP camera products for my Home Automation business.
Deliveries have been prompt, and where there have been confusions (with the courier) followed up with excellent diligence.
The products are well chosen and simple to integrate
I purchased a Panasonic webcam in February 2012 but did not try to set it up until January 2013 – almost a year after purchase.
Having failed to set it up I telephoned Network Webcam and spoke (with ought much hope) to Raymond in technical support
I have never in my life had such good, patient, knowledgeable and effective customer service. Raymond guided me through the setup process, explained clearly what he was doing and got the system working in both Internet and wireless mode in the space of a few minutes.
He left with the parting words ‘don’t hesitate to contact me if we can be of any further help’
If anyone reading this is thinking of purchasing a webcam or allied equipment I would thoroughly recommend Network Webcam and have nothing but the highest praise for their level of service (by the way I have no business or personal relationship with the company or any of its people)
Attentive and immediate response to query about delivery and product. Fully satisfied with transaction and product.
Internet prices, traditional service. Well Done.
Very helpful advice before ordering and after ordering items arrived next day and now all up and running
Made an order which I did not receive on time, twice I was let down by your company regarding receiving my goods on time. On making my order I was told that I would receive my goods the next day after payment was made, after half hour, I receive a call from you saying that you can't deliver the next day which was Friday, but was told could deliver first thing on Monday morning after the week end to which I have only received one item that i cant do anything with out the other. My order for the goods was paid all together, I was told I would get a deliveries all at once on Monday the latest. I am still waiting.
I have been working with these guys for sometime now and they are always very professional and helpful.
