I bought a 2.5" drive and enclosure late last year, but recently the HDD broke and refused to even show a hint of life. Less than a week later, Scan had processed my RMA, I had sent them the defective drive, and they had sent me a replacement. Absolutely fantastic service (and the price of the original drive+enclosure was a steal too!) |

Bought all I needed to build a full machine. Personal service was exceptional, delivery was speedy (even though they used CityLink) and the followup service was perfect too. I'll be using them again |

I've purchased loads from Scan in the past and nearly every time I've required customer support the've delivered. Just had my first experience of trying their free delivery service for Hexus users, and it's first rate :) |

Well, another fantastic transation with Scan. Purchased some parts (HSF, USB DVB, cathodes, etc) and I had to make 2 changes to my order on two occasions (changed HSF and then added a PCIe cable) these were done with no problems at all. Very quick responses to emails and delivery was on schedule as usual. Overall, very pleased with the service and an example of how other retailers should follow if they want to keep up. |

I bought 1500 quid of components from SCAN and was greatly disappointed to discover that the motherboard they had sent wasn't quite the one they were advertising. It was the same mobo, but a lite version without all the cabling+backing plates etc. This lite version has a subtly different part number, and their website had the part number of the full version. Anyway they accepted back the part and because I'd paid a premium for sat delivery returned some of the postage to me to allow me to purchase elsewhere. Alternatively they had offered me a 15 pound discount on the part if I wished to keep it. Top notch service. I then went to buy the part at OCUK and the exact same thing happened despite confirming which version they would send on the phone. The contrast in customer support was massive. Suffice to say, I'll be buying from scan in future, not the other co. |

Despite a minor scare with my product order not appearing on the site for a good 15 hours or so (because I ordered at night, apparantly this is normal), good overall, good prices, fast postage. A few items did turn up a bit 'battered' from the post, though, most notably my new Intel Core2Duo E6600. The chip itself was fine, but the box looked more than a little tired. |
