My experience with fishdeal has been excellent, i purchased reels and spare spools at very competative prices (by far the cheapest anywhere I looked). Postage was free and fairly quick, (I ordered on a sunday night and they arrived by tracked courior Saturday morning, thats 6 days from the Netherlands to the UK) I think that is pretty good considering I was notified it could be longer due to heavy work loads at the warehouse. The reels are very good quality from a well established company and were well packaged. What`s not to like. Despite all the negative feedback from other customers, I would buy from them again, without hesitation

Zamówiłem po rez kolejny rzeczy z fishdel zamówienie zostało opłacone i miało być dostarczone od 2 do 5 dni roboczych. Minęło 7 dni roboczych i nie dostałem swego zamówienia więc złożyłem reklamację i otrzymałem je po 3 dniach lecz było nie kompletne i pewna rzecz była pęknięta. Zrobiłem zdjęcia i wysłałem je prosząc o wysłanie mi rzeczy brakującej i całej części w zamian za pękniętą. Kazano mi wszystko odesłać z powrotem. Ja nie chciałem zwracać tego lecz dostać rzecz brakującą i całą z które zapłaciłem i to mi się nie podoba że tak ze mną postąpiono

Order still not arrived. Was not aware when ordered that the items were shipped from The Netherlands & was given a delivery time of 2 to 5 working days so gifts would have arrived in time for Christmas. Customer Service reacted quickly with a response but site should have reflected the issues with the NL postal service. I now have a disappointed husband :(

Purchased 2 x Penn 7000 carp reels, both arrived, one faulty. Very disappointing, Fishdeal did respond with returns details. I have returned the reel for replacement but no communication as to what is happening. These items come from the Netherlands which delays delivery to UK

Disappointed but not Fishdeal's problem.

Was disappointed when I received my order for a 2 piece thermal suit with half of it missing. It had been opened during transit and part of it stolen. Credit to Fishdeal though they agreed to forward a replacement which I am now waiting for.

Scam

My equipment got to the local DPD delivery depot then on tracking just was marked as returning to Fishdeal. I have emailed but nobody has replied. Nothing was delivered and no delivery attempted. They have my money and I have no equipment

Didn't ship my order! I don't know why'd they not? They did credit my account back, so they didn't steal my money.

Hi, Thank you for your review. We have looked into this case and we see that your address was in the USA. Since we do not ship to that country, our customer service sent you an email about this and placed the refund for it. Kind regards, Team Fishdeal.

Good day, That's annoying to hear! We always make every effort to pack and ship every order as quickly as possible. The majority of all orders are therefore delivered to the customer nicely within the specified time. This is also the reason why we state "1 to 3 working days" as the expected delivery date. You placed your order with us on 31-12-2023 and we shipped it to you the following day. So we have done everything possible to ship this order as soon as possible. We see that your shipment has unfortunately been delayed at dpd. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about this and we are dependent on dpd. Of course, we are responsible for this shipment and sincerely apologise for the delay. We hope to serve you better in the future.

OK - but delivery times are unreliable!

I've ordered two items from Fishdeal and neither orders went well. I first ordered two Umbrellas which were a very good price and a good quality, but instead of the 2 to 5 days delivery promised, it took two weeks to get to me. Fishdeal did say that it was down to the courier DPD who were having delivery problems so I gave Fishdeal the benefit of the doubt. My second order was for a Landing Net Pole. The stock level showed one in stock which I ordered immediately. Expecting it to be delivered again with 2 to 5 days I then received an e-mail 4 days after I ordered it saying that due to a stock error it was no longer in stock. Fishdeal offered a similar replacement Pole or a refund which I accepted which was deposited into my bank within 24 hours which was good. So, whilst I have been a bit unlucky with my orders, Fishdeal's prices seem to be very competitive and I would still consider buying from them again, but don't expect any order to be received within the 2 to 5 days as they promise!

Packaging, having purchased some 55kg of ground bait for my 2024 fishing campaign. this came in 3 separate boxes delivered in 2 separate consignments. Therefore the carrier had to deliver twice (false economy). a further issue was the second delivery had 2 of the bags of ground bait inside burst one was a 6.5kg bag and a 4kg bag. we estimate some 1.5 to 2,5 kg of ground bait was lost in transit. Furthermore, a flimsy cardboard box with a few sheets of crumbled-up paper dropped in does not support as packaging and the minimum usage of sellotape to close the boxes was absolutely pathetic.

Good value, goods delivered relatively quickly, I've had friends who ordered good rods and tackle, from a well known delivery company, that have had their deliverys ruined during transit on numerous occasions. I have ordered a few times from fishdeal now and have never had an issue with goods damaged during transit. Would definitely recommend and will be using again.

Poor packaging!

Goods were sent from abroad, so, not from the UK. The fishing rod arrived in a mangled box, and I was most concerned that the rod may have been damaged in the long transit - fortunately it was not. A sturdy tube would have been a far better package option, and I would be concerned about buying any delicate items from this company again.

A UK based website is a bit misleading as they are in fact in Holland. But that said the delivered on price. And communication with them wasn’t all bad. I will shop there again in the future. But will order well in advance of when I need/want my items.

You could let people know that the seller is not in the UK , because your website misled me to believe I was buying from a uk seller! when in reality it was someone in the EU .Which I would not have bought from normally .

Competitive Prices

Prices are competitive. Delivery is a bit longer, 8 days, than my experience generally on purchases from the major online retailers. So I would have no hesitation in using again particularly for Sensas purchases.

Poor service by the courier.

Parcel was left with a neighbour for 3 days as no card was left for me by the courier. Goods were fine but I thought the packaging was a bit over the top! anyway, thank you for the glasses which fit well.

Reasonably priced with great range

Prices are very reasonable and some excellent offers but doesn't inundate you with emails like some sites. I'd prefer to have had it made clear that shipping was not from the UK though.

Good service

Well packaged, but the tracking link says the parcel didn't get collected for about 4 days which I thought was quite slow and it turned up later than expected.

Packaging could be better…

Order arrived on time but packaging of rod could have been better, rod was loose in box, cardboard tube would be ideal, fortunately appears to be undamaged.

There was a missing item which was swiftly refunded which is great but stock checking should be better. Cheap price delivered quickly and problem resolved.
