I was very impressed with Cord EV initially. The experience at the point of sale was excellent, the process was straightforward, and both delivery and installation were handled quickly and efficiently. It all gave me the impression that I had chosen a company that really cared about its customers. Unfortunately, the experience after installation has been very different. The charger itself has proved quite flaky and regularly needs to be rebooted. That in itself is frustrating, but the real problem is the lack of effective customer support when something goes wrong. The best I seem to be able to hope for when contacting support is a call back within 24 hours, but there is no indication of when that call will actually come. If you happen to be unable to answer — because you're at work, in a meeting, driving, or simply unavailable — all you receive is an email saying that they tried to call, with no option to reschedule or arrange a suitable time. Instead, you're simply told to get back in touch if you still need help. I find that particularly frustrating because, if I've contacted you asking for support, I think it's fairly obvious that I still need help! It shouldn't be necessary to start the process all over again simply because I couldn't answer an unexpected call. The result is that I have a charger that isn't particularly reliable and, without effective customer support, I'm largely left to sort the problem out myself. It's a real shame because Cord started so well. The sales, delivery and installation experience were all very good, which makes the poor after-sales support even more disappointing. You have clearly shown that you can provide a good customer experience — I just don't understand why that seems to stop once the charger has been installed. There is definitely room for improvement in the after-sales support. A more responsive service, clearer communication and, particularly, the ability to arrange or reschedule a call would make a huge difference. You could definitely do better. You started so well.
After a very frustrating time with our charger not connecting with Octopus our electricity supplier and numerous phone calls back and forth with Cord customer service we received a call from Ahtisham the technician and within 40 minutes he had us up and running. Excellent work by him and good work from the CS guy who really tried his utmost to help get us going. Thanks both. And Cord really redeemed themselves.
Excellent service. Not only did they do everything they promised - but did it quickly and efficiently with a smile. I would recommend them highly.
Great Customer Service. Purchase and Installation was seamless. Installer was very professional. Charger looks great and App really easy to use. Would certainly recommend.
Great product and wonderful customer service. I would certainly recommend.
I have never known a company in todays world to deliver such high quality product and service so effortlessly. The product is great, the service has been outstanding and the customer service both in person and over the phone is second to none
From the minute I placed the order up until it was installed Cord were absolutely fantastic!! They kept me updated as my order was being processed and Richard Kelly was able to update me with the survey results as they came available explaining my options for the installation. Cord were the only company that gave me up to 30m of cable as standard, which really helped improve my options for the installation. On installation day there was a storm going over which was terrible, however Owain (From Plug Me In) never batted an eyelid and installed everything to plan, fortunately it did dry up for the last hour or so for him to commission everything. Really tidy job (considering the weather) and a really friendly lad, need more people like him in this world, nothing was too much for him. No complaints whatsoever with the whole process and very highly recommended for an EV charger at home.
Fantastic experience from Cord EV in getting our electric charger installed. With a very old house and complex installation, Cord kept us in constant contact and made sure we were part of the journey from start to finish. And more importantly, it is doing just the job in charging the car!! Thank you very much!
I've just had my Cord Ev charger installed and it looks brilliant, I'm really impressed with how smart it looks. Now charging my car couldn't be any easier, the app is really straight forward to use also. From start to finish Cord have been extremely helpful and professional, I would highly recommend them! Thank you so much!
We had a cord ev charger installed a few days ago. The service was faultless from start to finish. Having looked at some alternatives and getting confused by all the requirements to send photos of fuse boxes and draw sketches of my house, I came across Cord who stated they would do it all for me. When I bought the charger I booked a date for a home surveyor to come around who did all of this, and then when the electrician arrived to install the charger a few days later they had all the information they needed. Email communications were excellent. I had a couple of questions which their customer support answered quickly. I don't know much about ev chargers but it's doing the job of charging my car overnight and I don't need to worry about using public charging anymore. Highly recommend for anybody looking for a hassle free ev installation.
