"Disappointed"

I purchased a Kymco Agility 50 from Mark at the end of July 2024. It was my son's 1st bike but sadly I couldn't have been more dissatisfied with the poor customer service which left a very bad taste in my mouth! Mark never returned my calls and only ever communicated by email. Even the staff I left messages with for him to contact me were very embarrassed. Finally, we paid £120 for the bike to be delivered and on day 1 we noticed an oil leak. After again, numerous attempts to contact Mark he said we'd have to get the bike to them for the workshop to take a look at it then later he said that when the courier was in the area he'd pick it up FOC but I would bear some of the cost for it to be delivered back to me. No mention of time frame or cost to me! Consequently, I am now left to get the bike repaired at my own expense.

How can they call themselves " Budget Bikes " when they sell 18 year old 50cc scooters for £1200? There bikes are way over priced, half of them are either insurance write offs or still have hpi. Example: They currently have a Peugeot Vivacity 100cc scooter that is a W reg ( Year 2000 ) and they want £1,190 for lol, its worth £100 at best. They seel a lot of cheap Chinese scooters that you can buy from Direct Bikes for less than £1000 at almost the same price even though they are 10 years old. Amazed this place is still open.

I was looking for a cheap bike to enjoy this winter and Budget Bikes of Swindon had quite a few for sale so I made my choice and contacted them. From start to finish they were brilliant and when I changed my mind about which actual bike I wanted Adam was most accomodating. The bike finally came yesterday after a 2 week prep and MOT. She's a fine machone mechanically sound just like I wanted . Excellent service guys keep up the good work.

Swapped a 2016 Tracer 900 + £500 for a 06 XTZ660 Tenere - That was a bad idea.. When the XTZ turned up it had several faults: 1) Front brake binding. 2) Number plate fell off. 3) Engine cut out whilst moving twice in 30 mile round trip. 4) Rev counter is out by miles / doesn't work properly. 5) Ignition lock is barely working. 6) Clutch / Gear / Side stand safety system has had it's wires cut. 7) Backfiring (don't mind too much sounds cool) They took the bike back to get the issues fix and returned it 2 weeks later but hey ho.. They only fixed 2 of the issues! Steer WELL clear of these guys.. I am going to my credit card company to get the £500 back and if that fails I AM going to take them to court for it!
