Ordering through the Google Store… Ordering through the Google Store presented some challenges. In preparation to purchase our Pixel 8 phones, my husband and I were informed that the items were in stock and available for in-store pick up upon online payment. To avoid any potential shipping issues, we planned to personally pick up the phones, even though it meant a four-hour drive plus associated costs. When we inquired about the availability of colors at the Brooklyn, NY store, we encountered difficulty due to the lack of a contact number and unhelpful customer service. Ultimately, we decided to ship the phones instead. Despite some delays in the shipping process, my husband's phone eventually shipped but mine continued to be postponed. This led to my decision to cancel the order and make the purchase through Amazon.

Impossible to get a defective product replaced I got a pixel watch from store.google.com on launch day. I reported a fault 3 months ago and I'm still waiting for the RMA to come through to return it. I get a message every 4 weeks asking for more information and then nothing - no responses. I thought buying directly from Google would be a good way to get effective product support, but clearly this is very much not the case. I've always had Google pixel devices, but I'm considering moving to Apple after all this hassle.

Not satisfied! Not the best. The phone itself is good feels good and the camera quality is excellent. The display is amazing and big, but there is a big issue! The phone heats up quite a lot, and sometimes takes you out of the apps or sites the storage space is really bad, if you don't buy the extra storage from Google the phone is really small on storage, and keep in mind I'm talking about the 7 pro! Even if you buy the storage you would run out quite fast which is strange.

Google watch 2 not delivered Orderd a Google watch 2 WiFi. DPD the courier sent a text saying that the watch was on its way but then changed to status to “on its way back to Google”. I raised a case with Google support. After supplying screen prints of the tracking status and texts to Google I was told that after an extensive review by their escalation team (2 days) they told me it was delivered. I informed them it was not and could they provide information of proof of delivery. I then got a message saying that their decision was final and that I was not entitled to a refund or a replacement. I again went back to them and asked if they had read any of the proof I sent to them saying it was on its way back to Google. I then received an email telling me I could take legal recourse and to have a nice day. Unbelievable! I have written to the MD of Google retail and FMCG as there is no way you can escalate the case with Google support. I feel that Google has swindled me out of £300 plus told me if I don’t like it to take them to court. Never order from this company. Their customer support is appalling and you cannot find anyone with any authority to speak to. Senior execs at Google do not give a care about their customers.

Simply terrible Simply terrible. Bordering on illegal. They simply do not offer customer service if there is a problem. They have no published complaints process and after a while the conversation simply peters out and they just ignore you. I have no resolution to issue with my Google Nest Mini Display. Scripted responses that when you read between the lines you could infer they are telling you they won't contact you again. They are certainly non-commital. Disgusted and not quite sure how they're getting away with it to be honest.
