Written by the company

We specialize only in remote controls development, selling and repairs. Serving the whole of Europe since 2009. ....................................................................... Unusual atypical remotes are easy for us!! Seriously, we can create any remote control for every device, with the same functions and the same button names as original RC! .............................................................................. Thousands models of brand original remote controls in our stock. .................................................................................. We only want positive reviews and we will do everything for that. If you are not satisfied with our product, please give us a chance to solve the problem before giving us a bad rating. As manufacturers, unlike resellers, we can analyze the problem, reprogram the product, or recommend another model/type (exchange is free!). Please understand that the development and production of a compatible replacement part is much more demanding than an easy "buy-sell" business model. A replacement remote control must not only be of high quality but, most importantly, must be COMPATIBLE with the product. If your remote control is not working, it is usually because it is a wrong incomatible type, not because it is defective. ................................................................................... Do not hesitate to contact us anytime on orders@remote-control-world.eu. We answer within 24 hours. If you need an immediate answer ask our experienced technician (no chat bot) in the online chat on our website 9 a.m - 9 p.m. .............................................................................. Pls note: on Mondays we are more busy (we deal with inquiries from the weekend) and we are not able to answer emails within 24 hours as usual. It's better to ask on the online chat on Monday if you can't wait.

I ordered an ID8 fan remote on February 27th. Payment was taken but no order confirmation. I’ve called and emailed but have had no response and no remote. Avoid.

Edit:

I must disagree that you haven’t received any emails about this as you have since replied to my email. Secondly i did call but was never able to get through.
I have since been sent a tracking number that tells me it’s stuck at my local hub with a delivery date of 10th March. I’m still yet to receive any item.

Fine replacement remote for an old device.
After more than 12 years of daily use, the membrane switches on the remote control of my premium digital amplifier NuForce Dia broke down and became inoperable.
I tried to find a replacement in domestic Hi-Fi stores but without succes.
Luckily, on the internet I found the right address: VAT Remote Control World, in the Czech Republic.
On their exceptionally good website I found the remote right away and also at a very reasonable price. I ordered the remote control and it was shipped quickly. Its model is GENERAL BAR and it has all the same functions as the original, works perfectly and is pleasant to use.
So now I know where to find a replacement remote for any of my devices in the future if the need arises.
I highly recommend Remote Control World.

Dont bother with this company

I purchased 3 replacement remote controls 7 months ago, and when I received them none of them worked.
I was asked to send them back along with 2 of my original ones. I am still waiting, not a thing.
I have probably sent them about 50 e-mails now, and all I got back was they are doing what they can, sorry but its not acceptable.
Its OK if you receive something that works, but if it doesn't, then good luck with that.
My advice would be to look at other remote control suppliers, and give this one a miss.

Dear Customer,

We sincerely apologize for the long delay you experienced. Your order involved custom programming of the replacement remote controls for your devices, which is a complex process requiring precise configuration based on the original units.

Unfortunately, due to the unique nature of your request and the limited technical documentation available for your devices, this process took longer than anticipated. We understand that this caused frustration and inconvenience, and we are truly sorry for that.

We want to emphasize that we always strive to provide functional products and excellent support. Your case has now been addressed, and we have worked to ensure the replacement remotes function correctly.

We appreciate your patience during this process and thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.

Kind regards,

Remote Control World is the best source for Remote Controls!

Remote Control World is an exceptional company providing outstanding products and customer support.
In my opinion, I located a better than OEM replacement remote for my Yamaha Stereo - remote WS19340.
Navigating the Remote Control World website, locating item, pricing, checkout, payment, tracking and recieving item was an outstanding experience. Highly recommend Remote Control World! Shipping and tracking to Canada was secure & excellent! Thank you!!!

What was great was the final product and it's 'fit for purpose', which it is.
Delivery time, although 'implied' Circa 5 x days ... that is from when it arrives in the UK and not from the point of sale.
