Anyone used/heard of breezy.co.uk

I was looking for a hoody and I found this website. It has quite cheap prices, free delivery and 'loyalty cash credits'. I don't want to buy from there until I know it is safe does anyone know?

  • I would avoid the coment from thewiz they are a new user and for all anyone knows it could be their website.

    I have looked at the site and they appear to just be a middleman giving you a worse deal than buying direct. The hoodies on there appear to be the same as https://www.ebtm.com and if you use the discount codes here http://www.hotukdeals.com/all/vouchers/new?expired=false&mf=2959 and a reputable cashback site like topcashback.co.uk / Quidco.com etc giving extra back you will save more .
  • Thanks for replying, I don't think I will use them as no one seems to have heard of them and I dont trust them.

    I found that site too and had wondered if it was any cheaper than EBTM.com
    But as Firespire says they r the middle man.
    I have ordered once from EBTM.com, no major problems. Apart from sending me the wrong colour of shoes. I emailed them, but no reply after 4 days, so i called up.
    The woman on the phone was very helpful.
    EBTM.com good for different hoodies, free delivery and seem to have a few codes kicking about.

  • Looking for a product today (sleeved blankets), I was warned off Redsave which some of u may have heard about. Breezily offered a similar product but at 1/2 the price (just like redsave). On trying to find out more about P&P I ended up - would u believe it - to redsave! This is to be avoided I thought. As my laptop was trying to access Redsave, I noticed that Explorer was being closed down due to a program called Data Prevention Execution, a Windows Program about which i said:

    Understanding Data Execution PreventionData Execution Prevention (DEP) helps prevent damage from viruses and other security threats that attack by running (executing) malicious code from memory locations that only Windows and other programs should use. This type of threat causes damage by taking over one or more memory locations in use by a program. Then it spreads and harms other programs, files, and even your e-mail contacts.....

    Alarmed? I was too. I shall personally be avoiding both places

    If you check the contact details the address 178 Redbrook Drive does not exist within the SW14 area of london.....i.e. its a fake address.

    Also if you notice...,,you can 'buy' something from breezily but then get redirected straight to redsave.com to pay for the item.

    Breezily is an affilliate of redsave - buy from breezily and you earn him a percentage of every you buy
    (Excerpt from redsave.com)
    Our generous affiliate scheme offers affiliates a commission between 4 - 15% of the order value, with a £1 bonus for each trial membership signup.



    Redsave Office is based at Braeside Business Park, Sterte Avenue West, Poole, Dorset,but the actual occupier of this office is NETTEXMEDIA.COM who are providers of e-commerce solutions & software. Assumption is they dont actually hold these products just rather created the redsave website and are dropshipping the items via a wholesaler etc

    i would say dont buy from redsave - as they do have some good products at good prices, i would just say that dont buy it if you need it within the week. I have bought from them before and out of 4 or 5 items i have bought only one turned up late...

    Yes you're right that address doesn't exist! They must be watching this forum as the address has now been changed to one matching their domain record.

    Not sure if it was an error or they didn't want any mail? Their help pages do try to put you off phoning or writing asking you to email. I guess its a way they can save money?

    I've used breezily twice (found them looking for ants). I tried phoning them but just got an answer phone which asked to email. I must say though, they did reply to my emails promptly which is more than can be said for many online stores I've dealt with.

    Second time I brought a family paddling pool which came from redsave so thanks for clearing up the link. They say products they can't source cheaper themselves come from there (which is believable as redsave is super cheap for some things - not sure how redsave do it or if anyone can ever compete?).

    To be fair, Breezily do give back quite a lot of cash back to the customer and offer discounts (they saved me 10% on my pool :]) and as I said I was impressed with their email, if not phone support.
