Nintendo Arvostelua 

Absolutely AWFUL. Cancelled the automatic renewal of the overpriced Nintendo Online subscription that my children don't use. Nintendo took the money anyway and are refusing to refund as it's not in the 14 days of the ORIGINAL purchase. So I'm £60 down for their error and they won't do anything.

I purchased a gift card from my work to be used towards a new switch for my daughter. The website does not allow me to use this towards the purchase, I contacted customer services and requested a refund to be told by a rude colleague that it can't be done due to the T and C's despite me pleading with them that this was intended to buy a switch and not points on their system. They have no regard for new customers, I would stay away from this company, once they have your money they do not want to help you whatsoever and the staff are taught to put the company terms above the customer. Never buying anything from their website.

Ordered brand new switch oled and said available then they told me its not in stock so i cancelled the order two weeks ago and still no confirmation of refund?? ive already ordered and received another switch from a different store!

Got the refund in the end but took too long for what should have been 3-5 days was nearly 3 weeks of waiting for my money back

Nintendo stole my money. Their customer service is non existent. I purchased two games online, they were only circa £5 each, but neither of them worked. I emailed customer services and they refused to refund me for them. Maybe this company is just too big, and they know that people will use them regardless of how bad their service is. Taking peoples money and not giving them what they paid for, is an appalling way to operate. I believe it is called stealing. 

Plz ad a refund to Nintendo e shop plz PvZ😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Tried to get a refund for a game I didn’t intend to buy (meant to buy a different game). I had never even opened the game and immediately contacted customer service. The forms were so hard to navigate - instead of asking for a simple email they ask for sign in ID? And the directions they offer to find this are incorrect - I explained my situation and they offered no empathy. To be honest I found their response and their policy just unkind, any other shop would have issued a refund. Do not buy your games through the online shop!!!

Disgusting absolute joke does not work stay away from this unreliable consoles absolute rubbish not even fit for the dustbin no. customer service. Is the worst console I’ve ever had it does not login does not log onto the Internet properly complete problems after problems total waste of time.
I’m not even gonna explain to you all the problems that I had just that is rubbish. No good not fit for purpose. Waste the money. I don’t even want to sell it secondhand to someone else because I would fill terrible for selling a bit of jump to someone else.

Purchased a switch in Dec 2023, in January it would error during games. I booked it into to be fixed with Nintendo and was quoted £200 to have it fixed. I declined as the switch was in warranty, I emailed Nintendo to say this and they asked for my receipt. I sent this along with my bank statement and because I purchased the device in store they said the receipt was not valid because it did not have my name on. First time ive ever heard of this. They are point blank refusing to fix the issue. They returned the switch to me completely broken and unresponsive which they say is because I refused to pay to have it fixed. I requested a manager to call me ASAP and they said they cannot make outbound calls?! Customer service is non existent!! Tempted to take them to small claim for £40!

The worst customer service of any online retailer.

Made a large order of over £150 but missed an item accidentally, got in touch using their 'live chat' and was told that they wouldn't help me. That I would have to cancel my order and in the process lose the discount code I used. Wasn't able to offer a discount or free postage on the item I missed, even though the order I made originally was eligible. So point blank refused to help me over £4 when they are clearly able to, regardless of what they say their system allows them to do.

Garbage.

Appalling non existent customer support. Just automated replies that solve absolutely nothing. They don't even read the messages you send them, just have a bot send automated replies. Pathetic and this lack of support should be illegal!

Terrible customer service, do not buy digital purchases from the Nintendo store as they refuse to give you a refund if you do not like the game or if it was an accidental purchase which to me is consumer rights. If I had known this before I would not have bothered.

Cant even contact them. Been trying for months. No competition means they can do whatever they want. Shoddy hardware and service has no repurcussions. Sony and x box keep each other on their toes.

Logged a Switch repair online given failure to read games. Switch us in warranty.

Received a DHL postage pack which contained very vague information..... postage was due to be pre paid.
Phoned DHL for info but phone number supplied didn't work. Sent the repair via the post office to avoid further delay
which cost 20 euro.

Received info after 5 days from Nintendo to say there was no problem reading games !, but repairs were required for screen & these repairs are out of warranty and will cost 125 Gbp.

I've requested further info.
Very dissatisfied.
In summary; Postage not covered, long delay, poor communication on repair & high fees requested.

Continue to wait on reply. So frustrating.

Nintendo cancelled my pre-order without attempting payment. They then lied about my payment failing. To verify I spoke to my bank who confirmed the Nintendo.co.uk customer team had lied. I had also got bonus items in the order which cannot be reordered as they are one per customer. Note, the order was cancelled so I did not receive anything. I've been asking Nintendo for 4 months for an update. Worse still, I've a ticket going back a year and they "escalated" it. This means they never addressed it and never provided any updates. It's just disappeared. Genuinely just buy your games from Amazon or a game store. Avoid using this absolutely terrible service at all costs. I'm not even convinced they're real people. All I receive are generic replies. Utterly deplorable.

Nintento are an absolute joke.

I bought a game from their eshop and played it for less than 15 minutes as it simply does not run on the switch. Contacted customer support for a refund which has been a colossal waste of time. I followed all their convoluted steps to get the game to work and surprise surprise it didn't work. Nintendo then told me to contact the publisher and that it wasn't their problem. I didn't give my money to the publisher, I gave it to Nintendo and Nintendo are directly in breach of UK Consumer Rights laws as they have sold me a product that is not fit for purpose. I guess you can do whatever you like when you are a big company. I'm no longer spending any money with Nintendo and will stick with Steam who actually seem to care about their customers.

If you are reading this, do not buy anything from the Switch eshop, you are better off buying the physical game so you can at least return it when it doesn't work.

Son hasn’t used his switch for a good 18months now and last year I had to contact them about auto renewals going out but couldn’t be sure I’d done what I needed so took that on the chin. However….they’ve taken another and I’m fuming as this has taken money from an account a bill was due from and so that’s been returned. I’ll have a bank charge, a charge from my car insurance and a missed payment on my file!!!!! How dare they just take money when there is NO card or payment avenue authorised! Robbing company!!!!!!! Cannot log any complaint with them as it is consistently shaded grey -meaning it’s not an option !!!!! No phone number either surprise surprise! THIS (here on trustpilot) is my only way to get this seen! Shame on you Nintendo!

How can I start with this?

The device I was gifted was fine, no problems, no situations but the pricing for the online game(s) for their Nintendo 3DS XL, the Nintendo Switch and more.

Seriously, making us PAY for their online service which WAS free for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii family of consoles?!

What the heck are they thinking by doing that?!

For example, I wanted to get a new game, like the new Legend of Zelda one, physically it was £44.99 but digitally it was £59.99?!

THAT'S NEARLY TWICE OR TRIPLE THE AMOUNT IT SHOULD BE PHYSICALLY!

So, Nintendo, you have A LOT of improvements to make to your current gen console.

Absolutely terrible customer service, only exists to try and cover their own back sides, known issues like blocking payments and use of cards are just blamed on banks and 3rd party security, they take zero responsibility for their broken service and customer support are honestly a frustrating joke, even after an hour trying to make a complaint the only response received still tried to blame my bank and suggested I was having a hard time understanding, total gaslighting to ensure they don't have to do anything

João A should be ashamed

Had a very minor scratch on anti-shatter layer on Switch OLED screen. Support stated it could be potentially fixed without repair. After being sent in they insisted the screen and battery needs replacing for £127. Also my Switch's data had been wiped for no apparent reason. Felt like I had been misled. Can only hope the item is returned without further damage.

Bought disney dreamlight valley from the eshop, I had emailed them within a hour for a refund because the game is completely unplayable. I have deleted the game and reinstalled it, deleted other games off my switch even though I've 40gb and a memory card but still not able to play it without it constantly lagging and jumping, but nintendo refuses to refund still. If they would release a physical card game would be able to return that for a refund but that's how they make their money.
