Customer Service

Pros:

  • "Excellent customer service from start to finish."
  • "Professional and helpful and made the purchase and trade in an enjoyable experience."
  • "The guys have made us feel most welcome and part of the Orwell family."
  • "Everyone at Orwell have been brilliant from start to finish with test rides, helping me decide to buy a beautiful Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX, and setting me up."
  • "Fantastic customer service! Down to earth, friendly and professional right across the store from sales to service."
  • "Absolutely fantastic. The staff are excellent and are always eager to help."
  • "The sales team and shop are great with a very knowledgeable staff."

Cons:

  • "Nobody showed up, so I left feeling thoroughly disappointed and sad."
  • "Really disappointed with my service. Came to service my own bike following a service by Orwell’s. I already had concerns when the bike was returned to me way overfilled with oil."
  • "Unfortunately my ZX10R has just been written off and as I’ve bought from Orwell’s before, and used their service /parts department I thought I’d use them again. I did try and use them again for a new bike but was completely ignored as I stood in the showroom."
  • "Booked a service and a new tyre for my GTR, over the internet whilst on lockdown. Turned up today and I was told it was not booked in!!"
  • "I have been a customer for the last 13years but this particular year was not a good experience with my bike, being in for an MOT, not sure about using them again due to confidence which has not been a problem before, had no reply from them which is disappointing."
  • "I was browsing the clothing for a few mins and was asked if I needed any help. This person was from bike sales, and so went to find someone to help me with clothing. Unfortunately there wasn't anyone available."
  • "I make blatant mistakes, then they charge you with a lot of hours to pay because they don't know how to do it, they asked me to pay for 5 hours of labor to connect 8 wires to two rear lights."
