Wow! Thank you so much. I emailed a retailer for a refund on headphones that were never delivered, over 20 times, yet had no joy. As soon as Resolver got involved I got my refund within hours.

Fantastic service ! Sorted out my refund through an online retailer within hours. Thanks x

This is a free service to help consumers obtain a financial settlement of an outstanding matter. Rather than go to the Small Claims Court or Trading Standards you can often resolve matters with the help of Resolver. Even the mention of the name to a company you are trying to deal with will often produce sudden and welcome results. I have used Resolver to obtain a refund from a mail order company after I returned defective goods.

I am absolutely blown away by Resolver. Recommended by Martin Lewis and after being tormented by an untold amount of emails back and forth to a deals site trying to prove I hadn't received my laptop, for more than 2 weeks, Resolver resolved it! All it took was 1 letter from Resolver and all was sorted within 2 hours and a reluctant refund back on my card offered. No messing about. Couldn't be happier. Thank you so much Resolver

If anyone else feels they are bashing their heads against a brick wall and are powerless then I can't recommend Resolver highly enough. Thank you Resolver!

After significant delays to obtain my purchase (5 - 6 months) without receiving answers I needed help. Resolver was recommended to me and I am very glad to confirm that the team were brilliant. A solution was identified and has been made. Thank you so much to the Resolver team.

Brilliant service. Spent £130 on a pair of trainers that were 'lost in the warehouse' for almost a month. Customer service ranged from no response to blatant fobbing me off. Without Resolver, I would still be £130 out of pocket and barefoot!! Highly recommended

The retailer ignored our telephone calls, emails, even recorded delivery letters. We contacted Resolver and the matter was sorted within a couple of days. Clearly these companies do not like Resolver becoming involved! Excellent people to deal with.

Resolver is fantastic - I got tired of trying to contact an online retailer regarding a refund that they would not issue, so I raised a case with Resolver and in less than 24 hours they had processed my refund. Amazing service. Thank you.
