What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Travelability (UK) Ltd emerges from customer accounts as a mobility shop where unhurried, thorough advice is the norm. Reviewers often describe staff taking the time to establish what is genuinely required before any suggestion is made, whether the purchase is a folding travel scooter, a walking stick or something smaller, and demonstrations are given at a relaxed pace with correct use explained step by step and no pressure to commit. Product knowledge and an extensive choice of scooters and accessories are highlighted, along with the option to try equipment before deciding.

Sam is named for patience and helpfulness during a first scooter purchase, while fair pricing is mentioned as a further strength. Ongoing support also comes through clearly: a scooter fault was sorted out during a holiday, and home visits have been carried out to customers' satisfaction. The availability of hire as an alternative to buying is noted, and friendliness without any hard selling runs through the accounts. Several customers mention that time is taken to match equipment to individual circumstances rather than simply making a sale, an approach that appears to earn lasting trust and repeat visits.

Outstanding customer service. Set out last Saturday to tour mobility scooter suppliers in the area for a folding travel scooter for my wife. Popped in here not really expecting much because of location and outward appearance. Do not be fooled by this The lady took time to establish precisely what was required and how/ when it would be used. She went to great lengths explaining and demonstrating the scooter available only letting us out when she was satisfied that it was suitable and manageable. Customer service at its finest. Well done. I can thoroughly recommend

Popped in on Saturday to buy a walking stick, which I never expected to need 'til now (hip, arthritis etc). The lady in the shop couldn' t have been more helpful. She watched me walk up and down several times, talked me through how to correctly use the stick (it may seem obvious to many, but wasn't to me), and put up with me moaning about suddenly needing the thing. Very good service, and much appreciated.
