Owen Posted October 21, 2016 Share NavWorld are awesome. They also support cycling by helping my jnr girls team with equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malpiet Posted October 21, 2016 Share They certainly take customer service to a new level. Hugely impressed at how willing they are to swap out of warranty components for you even for free at times!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V12man Posted October 21, 2016 Share I bought my Fenix 2 from another supplier and a few months later had an issue with the heart rate monitor strap and Navworld replaced it under warranty pretty seamlessly. So yes, they're cool. As for the Garmin product though, I'm not massively impressed with the heart rate monitor strap - the replacement one is now also busted and the warranty has expired. So basically I went through two heart rate straps in 16 months and this time round need to pay for a new one, which according to past experience I can only really expect to last for 8 months. They just seem to be poorly manufactured which is a nuisance because their other products are awesome but for me the HRM is quite a pivotal component in getting the most out of the watch.Take it back - normally they just swap them out if they are faulty.

Eugene Brown Posted October 22, 2016 Share Super service from them to me for motorcycle, car, fish finder and cycling GPS equipment, and the accessories. And their Thule blowout sale was incredible last year Overall an example of how customers should be treated, and also how the all-important "spirit" of the OEM's warranty should be handled by resellers, and not just the "letter of the law" contained in the warranty policy.

It seems like just the other day when people would rave about great service when you had to make an appointment to have your hrm repaired in Vorna Valley.

Slowbee Posted October 22, 2016 Share NavWorld.JPGI can see why the question is being asked. http://www.garmin.co.za/ Also claim to be a garmin dealer. EDIT: devil is in the fine print ....*service provider* vs *dealer* does not mean the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat Posted October 22, 2016 Share Can say i also only had excellent service from them. Replaced my Garmin 810 after somer problems, and the upgraded it to a 1000 the week before Amashova. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pall Catt Posted October 24, 2016 Share Take it back - normally they just swap them out if they are faulty. Tried that. They said it's out of warranty. They did give me a bit of a trade-in discount on a new one though which was cool, but like I said, it's a bummer that I'll probably have to go back again in 8 months for another trade-in when this one packs up. Edit: Just to emphasise - Navworld are cool as a support structure for Garmin products but the Garmin heart rate strap itself is what I have an issue with (for which I cant blame Navworld but rather blame Garmin manufacturers)/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
