dabs.com- kosher?

Good morning moneysavers

I've just been on price runner and found that dabs.com- a company i've never heard anyone mention- have 16,000 positive reviews...Just wondering if anyone has bought from them and what their service is like and if they are kosher.

thanks

    I've ordered loads from Dabs.com. They are a very reputable company so you have nothing to worry about.

    I use them all the time, decent prices and very quick delivery, remember they are also on Quidco !
  • I remember going to one of their shops a long time ago.. very legit, well established business.

    however, they do not conform to the Jewish dietary rules of Kashrut.. if that's what you wanted to know :)

    Forgot to say as stated they are owned by BT worth looking at the BT Web Site the prices, part numbers etc are the same as Dabs but they offer free delivery over a certain amount. Bought my LCD TV through them and got QuidCo as well.

    They are fine if all goes well, and I've used them for many years, prices are fairly good and delivery is fast. But almost impossible if you have a problem, want to talk specifically to a member of staff, or return an item. You'll notice that no direct lines/direct emails are listed on their site.

    Also I've been trying for 2 years to be removed from their mailing list without joy, personally I won't use them again, prefer companies such as www.scan.co.uk and Amazon can often beat their prices too.

    Been around donkey's years. Almost one of the "establishment" as far as I'm concerned. Been around longer than Amazon. Certainly trustworthy, although I don't find them that competative any more. For PC hardware I tend to buy from scan.co.uk and a few others such as amazon and play (which have grown in hardware areas and also good for software and games).

  • thanks all for the feedback, I am a bit skeptical of online ratings, that's why I asked. Also thanks for the recommendations about where to buy from.

    ringo, they don't? but do they conform to halal standards? :P

    still find that quite funny...
