Hornby Opiniones 

Had an unlucky buy from Hornby, but am delighted with their response. My new 00 Rocket ran a bit jerkily when I ran it, as suggested, on dc before fitting a decoder. I should have stopped there and then and sent it back immediately but, thinking that the cleanliness of my track may not be up to the 2-wheel drive of this unique loco, I fitted the chip - and it blew. I told Hornby the full story but they did not argue. They just repaired the Rocket and fitted a new chip. All free of charge. It now runs like clockwork (if that is the term!) Totally delighted with product and service.

I purchased a entry level mixed traffic DCC set to build into a reasonable sized layout (8X4) - neither engine would pass over the Hornby points without stopping/stuttering. Emailed and was questioned about the clips on the points, was the track clean (brand new).
In frustration I enlisted the help of a local modeler who as many years of experience - track allowed all his locos to pass the points ?? He checked the alignment of the wheels and one axel was misaligned on both 0-6-0 loco's and the electrical pickups needed adjustment - gave the guy £20 as a thank you. Sorted. Reported this to Hornby as suggested that a £20 gift voucher to cover my costs - agreed in principle - 4 weeks later still waiting.
If this is the service I get, begs the question why Rails of Sheffield have dropped Hornby after 35 years - are they getting the same lack of service??
If you are thinking about Hornby suggest you SERIOUSLY look at their competition - they seem to care.

Called Hornby this morning re a problem - only a broken buffer - on a brand new terrier. They told me to take it back to the shop - only problem is that the shop has a potential coronavirus problem, so I can't go near the place. I explained this to the technical person, and was told that they couldn't help me - it had to go back to the shop. He didn't care about me catching the virus - and I'm in an at risk group. Rubbish service - if the loco goes back to the shop, eventually, I'll be asking for a full refund. No more Hornby products for me - and I've spent a vast amount of money on their products over the years. They don't deserve the custom.

So hornby own me £4 on postage cuz the fix an issue a loco the h class.
Which was August.
I know it £4 but it a lot when you not on much money
Still waiting. I've rang and emailed them all get same reply we sorting it out.
But hornby can give free loco (£200) to a youtuber who is asking for more cuz the person can't afford all the new stuff in 2020 range that person wants in the range
Plus hornby took hattons and ros out for a meal on Monday night

Thought I would order my Grandson's Birthday present a Scalextric set direct from Hornby, on their website 3 day delivery by DPD (and we all know there is nothing wrong with DPD 100%) Ordered Sunday night email confirmation of order and tracking number, phoned Hornby Wednesday as not heard from DPD timed delivery slot, Hornby confirmed on Wednesday PM Item not picked at warehouse for delivery and could not confirm delivery by weekend, for birthday, cancelled order, and drove 100ml round trip to the nearest model shop on Thursday, Fantastic Service, NEVER again would I deal direct with Hornby terrible after sales service, took nearly a week for refund, when if paid by b.a.c.s. it could be back in the bank in under 2hrs, if there was a choice of leaving no star that is what I would of left. Shame on you Hornby

I purchased a 300 Pound GWR Class 800 train pack and it was just awful. The Train dies if I turn the lights On DCC, Hornby refused to help as they had no other reports of this happening. When you leave a review on the Hornby website it gets moderated before being posted. My 5 star reviews Get moderated In a few days but my critical reviews never get posted I Posted a critical In January and its September and its still not been posted buy from Bachmann europe instead better customer service and trains are better quality, any issues I've had Bachmann have sorted

I waited 10 months for my order to be delivered....
