Louis Moto's prices are competitive, and its telephone customer services advisers are helpful. its good service is let down by its choice of courier in the UK whose accounting team and local depot fall short of being totally useless! I had to pay VAT and other import duties, which Louis Moto repaid to me with a couple of days of me send it the relevant receipts. Parcelforce, then retained my order on the basis of me not having paid the necessary fees despite me having legitimate Parcelforce receipts proving that all import duties and VAT had been paid. It took several weeks, daily telephone calls and many formal complaints to Parcelforce before my order was released to me. Parcelforce tarnished my customer experience with Louis Moto but despite Parcelforce's negative impact on Louis Moto's brand with me I will continue to order from Louis Moto, but I will not be making any 'mega orders' if Parcelforce remains its UK courier.

Well probably not what you want to hear, initially the cost was a factor, but became a grind. Why you despatched goods very quickly but your advert stated the cost I saw was inc everything duty import fees costs. So I was pleased. Then the problems started shipped very quickly despatched to courier sent to UK then the problems. Went to uk distribution sat there sat there was told I’d get a letter regard reason for hold up. Customs duty no letter arrived id to chase up finally having to pay£128 odds to get delivery got them a week later. As of now 2 weeks still waiting on the refund to my card promised by you staff. To be fair all the problems started in uk. Apart from failure to pay my refund as yet.

Items were fine and as described but there is nothing that mentions the £90 import duties we had to add on to the cost of the product.

Thank you for your review. Basically, you only have to pay the customs fees for the release of the parcel, we will then process a compensation for these fees for the customers concerned. We will contact you directly to clarify this matter. Greetings from Hamburg - Your Detlev Louis Team

Good prices and stock, allow for customs charges to UK.

Good stock held and good priced, because I couldn't find the specific mounting plate in stock anywhere else. Delivery took 2 weeks to the UK but I had to pay just over £100 in customs charges before it was released to me in the UK. I wasn't aware of this since I don't order stuff often and not really Louis motorrad's fault, although a warning of customs charges and rough estimate of costs would have been nice. For me I had to pay an extra 25% of the purchase price on customs charges so any money I saved on this site didn't matter anymore. Products all as described, Givi topbox all mounted to the bike with no issues.

Confusing policy for customs charges

Confusing policy regarding the refund of customs charges: sometimes Louis pays for them, sometimes they ask the customer to pay for them and then refund the customer. However, it's not clear which case applies when and it's not clear how long they will take to process the refund to the customer, if they ask the customer to pay.

Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, in our order processing for the UK, it is often unavoidable that our customers pay the customs charges for the release of the parcel. If you provide us with proof of payment, we would arrange for the appropriate compensation. We would like to apologise for the extra work involved. Greetings from Hamburg - Your Detlev Louis Team

Had some issues with delivery but it was more down to DHL than Louis. Screen was great and the best price I managed to find at the time. The packaging however wasn't great as it wasn't sealed and the edges of the screen protruded at the sides of box. Screen was unaffected by this though. Communication was excellent however so overall I'm happy with purchase and service

Still waiting arrival of the order 10 days after purchase, held in customs without being informed, waiting for customs charge refund as well. It depends on how long this will take to see if I buy from Louis again

Very good communication from the Team. Delivery timelines were longer than I had hoped however this is a BREXIT issue. All import taxes were quickly refunded to me. I would use this company again.

The panniers came very quickly thank you. But the carrying rack is still to come. It would have been better if they all came together!

Thank you for your review. The saddlebag holders have to be delivered later, but the parts will probably not take longer than two to three weeks to arrive. Logistically, it has proven to be a good idea to dispatch products that are already in stock. We would like to apologise for the delay with the backlog. Greetings from Hamburg - Your Detlev Louis Team
