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.

Awful, awful, awful. Dishonest Awful. Google Pixel Phone wifi stopped working after 6 months, the charging point barely works and now the phone is stuck in a constant reboot and gets really hot. Nightmare! Always had Samsung before and never had a problem. They guarantee repairs on the Google Pixel Phone for the duration of the contract (2 years) but they rejected my claim for repair because the phone is 'bent'. They said I must have been sitting with it in my back pocket - never done that once. The phone is treated like royalty. I sent photos showing it to be as straight as a ruler and they still refuse to accept the claim. So normal wear and tear over 18 months on a phone which has been very well treated excludes the claim, making the 'guarantee' absolutely worthless.

Reviewed this joke company recently Reviewed this joke company recently. Posting this to say their online agent Charles tells me I cant make a complaint because they dont have a complaint department. He then closed down the conversation when I asked for the address of their UK office. The joke delivery company they use has failed to deliver two items they claimed they tried to deliver 8 days ago. DPD of course. Every day the expected delivery day changes and everytime Google say wait until the estimate time has passed. The worst customer service ever. I f only they were going bust and could inflict this support level on people. Back to Apple.

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.
