Hi. I ordered P90x complete home fitness system on Thursday evening and two days later, on Saturday, after reading reviews, decided to E-mail them as I became concerned regarding their contact details, ie; phonecalls are answered by recording and E-mail are returned unanswered... I'm GLAD TO SAY TODAY WEDNESDAY(6days since ordered, package arrived and looks perfect, except for a few spelling mistakes in nutrition book, but it is printed in china)

“I ordered a keep fit machine and after waiting 4 weeks...”

I ordered a keep fit machine and after waiting 4 weeks with no contact or delivery, I made a successful claim with Visa and had my money refunded. I only ever use a Credit Card when ordering on-line and this is why. Had I used my Debit Card I would have been robbed of £60! No wonder the site doesn't accept PayPal. This individual should be locked up! E-mails are never responded to and the phone number is always picked up by a machine saying no-one is available. STAY AWAY!

Bought a swivel sweeper. Arrived fast but the rechargeable battery stopped charging properly in about 1 week. Now after charging for at least 24hrs it lasts about 2 minutes and it just fell apart last night when removing it from the charger. They don't answer the phone and they don't respond to e-mails. Worst company I have ever bought from on-line. AVOID AVOID AVOID

The owners of the site operate from 1162 stratford road (office 12). 1162 is a newsagents and office 12 is nothing more than a PO letter box.
Check it out on Google maps. You can actually see the post boxes in the window of the shop

I ordered core rhythms from this site 3 weeks ago and I haven't received my dvds. After a couple of e-mails and phonecalls which were all unanswered I found all the reviews in this site. I should've searched for reviews before ordering. I'm afraid I won't get my dvds. I hope this site stops operating. Beware of this site!

Do not buy, I bought a swivel sweeper G2, which took ages to arrive, when it did arrive it was a fake (As I have an original to compare). As The other reviews say they never answer the phone, but they have replied to my e-mails sayin they are not aware it is a copy and I will have to pay postage as it is an unwanted item. Going to get in touch with my credit card company and trading standards to see what they can do to help me

I wish I had visited this site before placing an order with LatestGreatest.co.uk. No goods received two emails stating when they apparently dispatched the item and no follow up or customer service. Extremely disappointed as I purchased a gift for a friend in Australia.

Ordered some dvds, arrived quickly but are pirate copies! Beware do not buy from this site! Fake fake fake, you know when people say its cheap so its too good to be true? Well this statement couldn't be any more true when it comes to this thief! Will be reporting to Trading standards, Birmingham council and Watchdog, This site will get shut down mark my words and hopefully the dodgy geezer running it prosecuted! If like me you were unfortunate enough not to discover this review site until after your purchase please spread the word like I have done, nobody should be conned out of their hard earned honest cash! No wonder he doesn't trade on the likes or Ebay or use Paypal

I placed an order on 22 May for dvd's the company was recommended via Amazon. I have yet to receive the dvds although the company were very quixck to debit my account. I am resigned to not receiving my items after numerous e-mails have been ignored. Trading Standards it is then!

Was about to order a DVD until I realised I couldn't pay securely by Paypal. I then checked their returns policy which is ridiculous and the contact details at the bottom of the homepage are so basic it made me double take. Then I googled them and found this site. You lot have stopped me from making the order, so thx. In return I've emailed a consumer mag suggesting they investigate this so called company.!

Bought P90X and Insanity DVDs. First of all nothing arrived. I chased up and after 2 weeks cancelled my order but they sent the DVD's anyway. Opened the boxes and both were pirated copies. I contacted Beachbody.com who confirmed my purchases are both pirated DVD's. Not surprising now I have seen the reviews on SiteJabber! Contacted Trading Standards who seem to have known about this company for a while and done nothing about them. Was told to send a letter registered post requesting a refund. Sent the letter to the address on the LatestGreatest site, it was returned a week later! Looked on Companies House and found the business had been wound up a few months ago but they still trade using their registration number on their site (illegal?)
Now contacting my credit card company to get a chargeback dispute raised against MoneyBookers who LatestGreatest use.
In short, these guys are proper crooks who sell pirated copies of DVD's and probably everything else they sell is either fake or not even available.
STAY AWAY!

Do not buy from this company; finally received the goods after 6 weeks (5 items) and all are counterfeit. At first glance the goods look ok but on closer inspection they are cheap copies; a set of workout DVDs (boxed, shrink wrapped etc) won't play; all the items lacked the instruction leaflets that should have been inserted; contents aren't as described etc etc I have reported this company to trading standards, please do the same if you have a similar experience. I contacted the company but received no response to my e-mails and their phone number goes straight to answer phone. Don't let them continue to fleece people, report them to trading standardson ******* *******

Don't use this site. I bought a product which was faulty - returned the item Recorded Delivery but had absolutely no response whatsoever to emails, letters and phone calls. I have been completely ignored. Bogus site in my opinion.

Do not order from this site. I ordered 4 items and EVERY SINGLE one was faulty. They must have some link to suppliers with display models and faulty goods. I recieved a different brand pull up bar to the one described and when I finally pieced it together the holes drilled were all out of line so the item did not fit together properly and is probably also unsafe. The g2 swivel sweeper was used and smashed on the side. The ped egg had been opened- gross! And the px90 DVD lip synching is out in some parts which makes me suspect it's a pirate copy. Bonus CDs also missing. Haven't watched them all yet so not sure if this is the end of the problems. Products took weeks to arrive and since they never answer the phone I suspect that I will not have much sucres getting a refund. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!

After placing and order with *******@co.uk I came across this site and read all the reviews, woah, Alarm bells started ringing, I tried emailing them through their site, Domain didnt work, Tried ringing them only too get a recorded message each time, I must admit I was in a panic thinking I'd be ripped off.
BUT:... Then came emails too tell me that my order status was processing, then another too say dispatched
My dvd's came the very next day... all within a week off ordering, perfect condition! I was wrong too be so hasty and jumping too conclusions that my experience would be the same as others, Apart from the lack off contact through their site I can't complain about my shopping experience with them.

This is one of the worst websites on the WWB! I have never been treated so badly in my entire life on the internet. This company never answers the telephone, always goes on voicemail, which makes me think that although the website looks really good, that it is a one man operation, and he is either never there or is smiling smugly listening to messages and taking automated payments, and s$#*!ing behind his computer! This person rarely replies to emails, SCAMMER springs to mind, if you live in Birmingham, personally I would buy from his premises, but not online - BEWARE, keep your money in your pocked, BECAUSE IN MY OPINION HE WILL, he has no shame, no heart, pure greed springs to mind!

Absolute rubbish! I ordered Chaleane Extreme, money was debited from my credit card the same day I placed the order. I received an e-mail avising me my order would be processed soon! I'm annoyed they have my money and I (now 2 weeks on) still haven't received my order! Have e-mailed them to get full refund, but have not heard from them! I think I shall be contacting my credit card company to recover my money! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND LATESTGREATEST.CO.UK I only ordered the dvd's from them because they were cheaper than Amazon... I would rather order from Amazon, pay a bit more and receive my goods within a day or two!
