**Urgent. Anyone ever used voltage-uk.com?**

[robsparx]

Ordered some stuff from this website. Based in Sunderland, spoke to them and it all seemed legit. Now their website is down for maintenance and they're not picking up the phone.

I'm a bit worried

Just done a quick check on the company for you. See the below links

Voltage-Uk.com - Electrical Distributors | Electrical Supplies | Electrical Wholesalers | Voltage UK Electrical Distributors
WebCHeck - Select and Access Company Information

Not a lot of info, but I hope this helps.

 

[robsparx]

Thanks. Did have a look on Companies House myself earlier. Not sure what I can do with the information though really?

 

[Spoon]

Dont know what to suggest mate. Hope you have put your purchase on Visa, at least you should get your money back if it all turns out bad.

 

[robsparx]

Here's where they are. Would like to know if anyone's used them before Voltage Electrical Distributors Ltd

 

[Dave]

Keep it to this one thread.. no need to keep creating others on the same question.

 

[robsparx]

Yeah sorry, was going edit the thread title but doesn't seem that you allow that here. Just wanted to get the Sunderland bit in the title

THEY ARE LEGIT ... they been going for few years now!!! drive past there van every day in durham as the chap must take it home at night!!

 

[ezzzekiel]

they based in silksworth had a lot of calls from them when they opened asking to call in for coffee and chat so although i never used them they are/were a legit firm, seen there vans regularly although they may of gone bust if no one will pick up phone

 

[malcolmsanford]

I have an exercise where is says :
A tranformer 400kV/150kV has 22% short circuit voltage. If this transformer gets connected as an autotransformer , find the new short circuit voltage.

1.7 Trillion KV but it will depenf on the angle of the dangle

 

[robsparx]

Cheers guys. Yeah I did think the site looked legit. Probably just my luck that they've gone bust just after I've ordered £250 worth of stuff!

If anyone drives past there and notices they're open could they please let me know? I live about 6 hours away so it's not so easy to drive over and check. Got no other contact numbers, or names to get hold of them by. Not happy

 

[Spedge]

In the same boat as you mate, though I've only spent £35. They kept fobbing me off with a later and later delivery date - feel a bit of a muppet!

 

[robsparx]

I've spoken to consumer direct, they've got all the details. Also spoke to insolvency services and they haven't gone insolvent or been issued with a winding up order or whatever. Have you seen what it says at the top of their website now?

"This is a demo store. Any orders placed through this store will not be honored or fulfilled."

Obviously that wasn't there when we ordered

 

[Spedge]

Nope, that banner wasn't there when I made the order. I'd even phoned them several times about the order and they (obviously) never mentioned anything. I hope it's just a snafu, but I'm not expecting much.

 

[Durham Deano]
