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.

Good all around.

After receiving helpful information over their website and email, I sent in my 30-year-old broken remote control.
I perceived VAT Remote Control World as well versed, multilingual, with quick response times, a wide range of services, reasonable offerings, and professional order processing. Finally, I got back my old remote control, working fine again.

The company of the best customer service ever!

Despite of a "bumpy order" (partly our fault) I have to give five stars.. For some reason the remote we ordered did not work - but that is not the point I'm giving five stars. :) Solving the problem and finally fixing our original a bit disabled remote + sending a new one -this service earns five stars. And my special thanks to customer service! She was the most patient and friendliest ever! My warmest thank you to her especially!

Very Poor Customer Service Experience

Very disappointing experience with their customer service. Before purchasing the remote I checked with them if the remote was correct of which they confirmed it was for my streaming device. The remote would not work upon arrival. I contacted Remote Control World to ask for help and they offered instructions on how to solve the issue. None of their solutions helped in this circumstance and I can only think that either the unit is faulty or it is incorrect for my system. Because of their slow replies I am past the 30 day PayPal window and cannot claim on this. The company have advised that I can return for a refund but this would be at my own cost which is 75% of the cost of the remote. They will only refund the cost of return postage if a fault is found. So that risk is being left on me and I would stand to lose out. This isn't how customer service should be. I have asked for a different solution or guarantee that postage would be refunded upon return but have not had a response from them. If this was a return due to my own choice then the return offered is correct but this is due to an item that is not functioning on my system as it is supposed to. I would not recommend using this company and feel very angry at their poor treatment of me as a customer. Slow replies and a failure to try and offer a middle ground. Look elsewhere if you need replacement remotes!

UPDATE: Since my review I was contracted by their head of customer care. This person was much better in their support for me and the product and a satisfactory outcome was gained straight away. This should have been the initial response 2 months ago. Many thanks to Ondrej for swiftly helping resolve this one.

I had placed an order for a remote control from the company.
Unfortunately — largely due to my own mistake, as I later realized — I ordered the wrong remote. (I’d rather not detail what exactly I messed up, because it’s quite embarrassing.)

I reported the issue, but it couldn’t be resolved at first, most likely because I hadn’t explained the problem thoroughly enough. After several additional exchanges, Mr. Ondrej from the company assisted me, and together we figured out which remote would be the most suitable for me.

Thank you to him and to the company for the excellent support!

VAP remote control

The equipment ordered is of very good quality; the only thing missing is a small booklet detailing its specific features and use . Email support is excellent and very responsive. The only negative point is the 9-day delivery time by GLS.
