I first bought a PC from you in 2004 after I
saw it featured in the Custom PC magazine (issue 005 February 2004 Scan 3XS
OC) it was one of your first overclocked units and I was very impressed so I
bought one and was not disappointed. I was very impressed with the service I
received in 2004 and saw no reason to go elsewhere for my next PC. Your
service is still extremely good and I am very pleased with every stage from
ordering to delivery.

I would have no hesitation in recommending a scan built computer to anyone, your component business is already legendary for quality and price. Alan Shaw - 29th June 2011 |

Build quality and attention to detail are excellent. This is the second system I have had built by yourselves, and you have repaid my trust. I am particularly impressed by the low noise level from fans etc - for such a powerful system, this is very creditable, and if I'm honest, quite a relief! Perhaps the one factor that diminished the overall experience was uncertainty over the delivery schedule. Days went by with the website indicating 'complete', but I was left wondering what was happening. I stumbled upon negative comments on a web forum, and this went some way to explaining it. A little extra communication would have been valuable here... Overall - well pleased with the system. Please pass on my thanks to the team. Philip Mantell - 22nd June 2011 |

When I got my system home and removed the bubblewrap I was absolutely stunned at the build quality. I knew it was going to be good. But that was a work of art. Thank you all very much for a fantastic job well done. Tim Warrington - 14th June 2011 |

Hoping to save enough to order more soon. Jean - 13th June 2011 |

I've started using the system, and am very pleased with it. I have had great satisfaction throughout the order process, from being able to select the specific components I wanted in the system, right through to having it built and delivered to that exact spec. The process has been fluid and hassle-free. If I ever do encounter any problems, I will certainly contact you back. Thanks! Nicholas - 31st May 2011 |

Thank you for the great service.

Build quality is exceptional and I'm very pleased with it. Was a bit disappointed with the length of time it took before I took receipt of the system, but it was worth the wait. Dan Burke - 30th March 2011 |
|
The service has been great as usual - I do like the way information about the status is sent every step of the way and also appreciated being informed of the problem with the chipset and being given options as to the approach I wanted to take (another pre-sales good example). Although the person who delivered the machine (very personable and friendly) offered to set my machine up for me, I elected to do it myself. You can't possibly miss the internal bubble wrap - plenty warning and you can see it through the case :) The machine worked perfectly from the moment I powered it up. I then wiped the disk and installed Windows 7 Ultimate. Providing the very easy to install drivers disk was marvellous - got everything recognised and running within in hours of starting the software rebuild. The only thing I have not seen, is Windows reporting the over-clocked speed under Computer Properties. The gentleman who delivered the machine did say that it would only show up after a load had been placed on the machine, but have not seen it yet. Another satisfied Scan customer. Louis Lazarus - 22nd March 2011 |

I couldn't be happier with the quality and performance. Hopefully this will be matched by long term reliability. Many thanks for your excellent service! D Blench - 21st March 2011 |

Overall I am very happy, and it more than makes up for a very unfortunate situation a few years ago when I tried to get a new PC then, and the company I bought it from went into voluntary liquidation, which resulted in no PC and no money back. Toby Anderson - 12th March 2011 |
|
Flawless build inside the machine. No, really - how do you guys get it so neat? Best I've seen, and I've owned a few Alienware machines before they got bought out. Excellent build quality. The machine is running stable, extremely fast and the first game I ran up had me smiling ear to ear at the 200 frames per second. Thanks to you and the Scan team - I hope the machine remains as good as it is running right now - first class so far. Matthew Smith |

May I congratulate your technicians - the inside of the case is the tidiest layout that I have ever seen inside a computer (let alone one that I owned) - I am very impressed. There may well be questions to come but for now I am decorating and reorganising my study to accommodate the new system so further exploration and evaluation will be in a few days time. Mike Wort |
|
May I say that it is this level of attention to detail and service that means I have selected Scan Computers as our preferred supplier for workstations (previously DELL). I hope that you can improve on the lead times for system delivery in future, but you have managed expectations very well and I always felt that you were keeping me in the loop. Being able to see just what a thorough and high quality job you are doing in preparing each machine is extremely rare nowadays and I recommend your company to everyone. Dominic Turner |

From experience working as a Customer Services Advisor myself, I know how busy and hard it can get at times. Within a few days I received another email telling me my system had been given a date for build. I was updated from start to finish and if I was ever in doubt a simple email reply to scan was answered within a few hours! I received my system a week or so later, Massive box in a bed of bubble rap and inside another box with the system, Not a chance of any damage. All I can say is this was the best service I've had from any company and would totally recommend to anyone. Huge thank you to scan and the 3xs team! Mark Olds |
