9 monthsCalling this number might end up adding extra fees to your phone bill, so be careful.1 yearSpent £61 on a 21 minute call, that's just ridiculous!2 yearsI got a call that lasted no time at all and it charged me £4.54.2 yearsI’ve just noticed a charge on my bill for a call to this number, and I’ve no idea why, as it’s not one of my saved contacts.2 yearsAvoid calling the number marked as "sales enquiry information" on Laptops Direct’s site, it’s a total rip-off. I didn’t notice until I saw a weird £15+VAT charge pop up on my phone bill that’s nothing to do with my normal calls. It’s ridiculous, because just making a call to ask about their prices on my mobile ends up costing 13p plus whatever the network wants to add. Definitely not worth it.Laptops Direct2 yearsI rang back what I thought was a normal number for Laptops Direct but didn’t realise it was a premium line, which annoyed me. Ended up costing me over £5. Proper cheeky!Laptops Direct3 yearsDidnt know calling from a mobile phone would cost me. I think the other number I had saved on my phone was likely free: 0330 390 30603 yearsLAPTOPS DIRECT. I rang 08712440934 to ask about purchasing a phone. The call didn't last long because I learnt that the phones aren’t all brand new; it might be a refurbished one or even a European version. They wanted me to order straight away, which I refused and ended the call. But today, 09/06/23, I noticed a £3.74 charge for that brief 3min 17sec call. Proper rip off. Really glad I didn’t go any further with them. Wouldn’t recommend dealing with this lot.LAPTOPS4 yearsI rang up Laptops Direct about a mix-up with my delivery, only to discover I'd been slugged almost £10 for a 20-minute call. Most of that time was just waiting on hold. Proper rubbish experience.Laptops Direct5 yearsI ordered a phone from Laptops Direct and paid more for next day delivery. When I rang up to find out why it hadn’t arrived, they charged me extra just for the call! It’s a cheeky move, especially after charging me for next day delivery and then not delivering on time. No mention of any extra fees beforehand either. Real dodgy practice.Laptops Direct5 yearsI rang this number to get some help with a laptop I bought recently, but I ended up being passed around to like four different people. Each one promised to put me through to the right team, but in the end, the call just ended abruptly. Just worked out today that they charged me over £13 for that mess! Really frustrating.Laptop Direct5 yearsThis place is a total scam, honestly. I’d stay well clear and warn anyone thinking of using them. They charge ridiculous amounts for just a couple of minutes. Complete daylight robbery.5 yearsMy husband rang this number thinking it was Laptops Direct and ended up being billed close to £10 just for the call. We looked it up here and then he sent them an email to sort it out. Thankfully, they are giving the money back now.Laptops Direct5 yearsJust tried ringing this number to ask about a laptop I was thinking of buying. Didn’t take more than a couple of minutes, but somehow ended up getting charged almost £20! Be careful if you see [#]laptopsdirect[###], it’s a proper rip-off.5 yearsI rang this number to ask a few questions about a laptop before I decided to purchase it. It was a brief chat, lasting just a couple of minutes, yet it ended up costing me almost £20! Be cautious, folks!5 yearsI rang Laptop Direct to ask about buying a TV, but didn’t realise how much the call would cost until my Sky phone bill arrived - they charged me £12.50 for the call! I’m pretty sure the automated message didn’t mention any call charges, and their website only shows an 0330 number, not the 0871 one they actually use. Seems like the call gets forwarded to Appliances Direct, and that’s when the 13p a minute plus network fee kicks in. What a rip-off!Laptop DirectSkyAppliances Direct5 yearsI rang to ask about sending in an old laptop and had no idea I was getting scammed over the phone. They really ought to put their prices up on the website. Maybe they don’t so they can squeeze more cash out of you after offering a rubbish trade-in value.6 yearsLaptops Direct really should be shut down, honestly. I got an external hard drive off them which turned out to be faulty. Spent about £25 on phone calls trying to sort a replacement, but never once got a reply. Plus, no one ever picked up when I called, so how come I’m getting charged for those calls? I always thought you had to actually get through to be billed. Definitely avoid calling 08712440934!Laptops Direct6 yearsHas anyone used my phone to ring this number 08712440934? I just got a huge bill and I’m not sure why. I didn’t actually make any calls myself. What’s going on here? How do I sort this out?6 yearsSeriously overpriced, feels almost like a scam just to ring LaptopsDirect. They've been blacklisted by me for good.6 yearsI think this has something to do with Laptop Direct - they took £13.00 from me plus a £2.50 access fee. Absolutely shocking!Laptop Direct6 yearsI was planning on getting a new PC and the picture showed a keyboard and mouse, so I called to ask if they were actually part of the deal. Turns out they weren’t, but I still got billed for the phone call. What a rip-off! Definitely not buying from that place again.6 yearsTotally dodgy Laptops Direct! I was shocked by how shady they turned out to be.Laptops Direct6 yearsThey charge you for every call, and good luck getting through without being on hold forever. Seriously, steer clear of these lot!6 yearsHonestly, it's mad that customers are expected to pay laptops direct just to buy their stuff. How on earth is that allowed? I’m definitely not buying from them anymore.Laptops Direct6 yearsBeware, I got scammed by Laptops Direct.Laptops Direct6 yearsTotally ripped off here, no details given about any fees upfront. Never gonna give my money to these muppets again, and I’m being nice!6 yearsAvoid Laptops Direct at all costs! I ended up paying nearly £20 for a call that lasted only 17 minutes, totally outrageous! Honestly, if you need to get in touch with them, stick to emailing. Better yet, just don’t bother purchasing anything from them. Any business that treats its customers like this clearly doesn’t deserve your money.Laptops Direct6 yearsHad no clue I'd be charged over £13 just to ring Laptops Direct about a credit card problem when buying online! If you phone this number be warned, it’s outside your usual call plan so your mobile bill will shoot up. Proper dodgy move from Laptops Direct, honestly scandalous!Laptops Direct6 yearsSo I ended up dialing this number by accident after ordering a laptop through the website. When I needed to return it, they said I had to ring this line to sort things out. I assumed it was a legit and trustworthy firm, which I guess was my mistake. Turns out they make up some of their fees by charging a lot for calls. On my bill, it added nearly £8 more than I expected. Buyer beware!6 yearsI rang Laptops Direct and ended up with a charge of £8.80 on my phone bill! Honestly, it's so unfair. I had no clue I was going to be billed this much until I saw it on my statement. Now, I have no idea who to turn to or how to make a complaint about it. It feels like I've been ripped off, and I'm sure this kind of thing isn't meant to happen!Laptops Direct6 yearsAvoid ringing this number (laptops direct) unless you fancy getting stung with network fees, they charge a ridiculous 13p a minute!Laptops Direct6 yearsi phoned laptopsdirect six times altogether, and it added up to about 25 mins on the phone. They advertised it as 13p per min plus whatever my network charges. Since i’ve got unlimited minutes with my provider, i figured it would only cost me around £3.64 but instead, i got charged £18.60 which seems way off to me.6 yearsI got a laptop from Laptops Direct that was meant to be brand new, but it arrived damaged. They never told me about any extra fees upfront. Trying to get it swapped was such a hassle, and now I’m stuck paying for stuff that really should’ve been on them. Absolutely feel like I’ve been taken for a ride here.Laptops Direct7 yearsThis number called me and somehow ended up charging me.7 yearsMy lad gave that 08712440934 a ring because of some issues with a laptop he bought. Afterwards, I noticed £3.50 added on to our phone bill which wasn’t expected. Bit annoying that they charge like that just for a quick chat.7 yearsI wasn’t told about any rate changes beforehand since this is just the returns and help desk. A bit of assistance would be great.7 yearsIf you're trying to reach Laptops Direct, their number is 08712440934.Laptops Direct8 yearsJust noticed a weird charge from this number on my Vodaphone statement, I’m disputing it and gonna block it asap!VodafoneSubmit Your Own Report (0871 244 0934)
