Slow post

Posted my analyser on the Friday and got it back Wednesday afternoon. Most likely my fault for posting on the Friday.
I will try a different day next year.
That was my review as I had lost a few jobs waiting for my analyser. Kane have issued me a full refund without even asking for it. What else can I say fabulous responce from Kane…

Hi Shaun

Thanks for leaving us a review - we're really sorry you didn't receive your analyser back when you expected it.

Although we had the weekend which can cause some postal delays beyond our control, I have looked into this and can see there was in fact a delay in posting your analyser back to you.

We always endeavour to hold our hands up when we've made a mistake and this is one of those occasions, therefore a refund has been processed as part of our KANE CARE promise.

We hope this experience hasn't caused too much inconvenience and look forward to giving you our usual high standard of service next year.

Best wishes

Brad

I’m extremely disappointed with the service I received when sending my Kane analyser away for calibration.

I was specifically told that the analyser would be returned by 13:30 the following day, and I relied on that guarantee when arranging my work. I dropped the analyser off on Friday, expecting it to be returned as promised. Unfortunately, it did not arrive back until Tuesday.

This caused me a significant problem as I had work booked in and was relying on having my analyser back on time. As a result, I lost work and income that I could otherwise have carried out.

If a next-day return service is guaranteed, customers should be able to rely on that commitment, particularly when the equipment is essential to carrying out their work.

I appreciate that delays can sometimes happen, but in this case I feel the service provided fell well below what I was promised. The delay had a direct financial impact on my business, and I would therefore give the service 1 star based on my experience.

Hi Neil

Thank you for your review and we're sorry that your analyser wasn't delivered when you expected it to be.

With our KANE CARE service, we promise a quick turnaround so you’re not without your analyser for too long - I'm sorry that hasn't been the case on this occasion.

I've taken a look and can see that we had completed the work and had the unit ready for dispatch as per our KANE CARE promise, however we had a failed collection from our courier which is why you didn't receive this as expected, so I do apologise it wasn’t delivered to you sooner.

I can see that our customer service team were in contact with you to get this resolved at the time and issued a full refund.

We truly value you as a KANE customer and remain committed to improving for your next service.

Any questions, please reach out to us by calling 0800 059 0800 or by emailing uksales@kane.co.uk

Best wishes

Good service but very expensive

I would have given a 5 star review for service as the communication and speed of return was excellent.

However the cost of the service each year is now not far of 50% of the cost of a new machine which is ridiculous.

Good communication

Good communication, easy to post item and receive back. Just a shame about cost/frequency of recalibration considering item not used that frequently.
