    Yeah Moneybookers sucks to be honest I failed to purchase 3 times from them because it wouldn't accept my Visa Debit Barclay card and I had to transfer funds into Moneybookers the long way before I could place the order, so it's believable that they ran into problems.

    They told me they expect movement next week (customs) and if I don't then they will contact customs. So its just a waiting game now.

    Well I've ordered from them on the 21st June and everythings gone smoothly. They've replied to every email I've sent promptly, they sent out the laptop on time as stated on their website, they've provided me with tracking to see where my laptop is at the moment. Looking at the tracking I can see it's hauled up at customs ¬_¬ and has been for a week, I'll keep you updated on what happens.

    A lot of the users here are cancelling their orders because they don't trust them, the thing with Elite Savings is you need to actually know you can wait that long for your item because they don't ship the item to you within a day they take around 15 business days.


    Hi!

    I'm waiting with an impatience for a result. Could you please let me know what kind of postal/courier service are they using that they've sent you the tracking number for? If it's some kind of an unknown postal service then it could just as well be a scam. And btw, you've mentioned that your parcel is currently with the customs... So is it still there or has the information been updated?

    I have ordered a ipad from elite savings on 27th july and kept emailing them to keep up to date, they said that they will send me a tracking number on the 17th, and they also said that it takes 5-7 days for customs to get through a container, once i saw this thread i got so worried and im just hopping ill get my ipad sooner or later, and that my money has not gone to waste. So far ok for me

    I have an agreement with them now that if the item has not cleared customs by next friday I get a full refund. They say they have never know customs take so long, nearly 4 weeks now.

    I've canceled my order. They said they'd process refund on Monday. I purchased Archos 9 tablet from them but after reading all the posts here and on other similar forums, I've realized it's not worth taking the risk and I'd rather loose 10%+0.50p instead of waiting hell knows how long and then just losing another 10%. Found the same item that's gotten already upgraded to windows 7 ultimate for just 50 quid extra on eBay. Though still I'm really interested if anyone will receive the actual products that have been ordered, so please keep us - the readers - updated.

    just says awaiting clearance from customs and the company don't reply to email (tracking that is). Been that way for 4 weeks now. Even with back logs I think 4 weeks is taking the !!!! in customs. I would like to know where in the UK it is so I could try tracking through customs itself.
