    I repurchased today what I had purchased a month ago. After waiting weeks for my original purchase to arrive, I finally tracked down the original purchase confirmation email (that I had never opened to begin with), which showed that I only purchased a $1 donation, which I had originally added at checkout. I double checked my credit card and saw that I was only charged for the $1 donation. I don't know how exactly a glitch like that could occur, allowing my donation to go through without ordering the actual product I purchased, but I thought you should know about it. This second purchase seems to have processed properly.

    All was well except for when I was checking out, I removed an item from my basket, by clicking "Remove" that did not seem to work, then I used the minus sign and the number changed to zero, but the order today was unchanged, I have to reload the basket to then get the updated total. Just somewhat disconcerting at the time.

    The website for the most part is very clear. I like how everything is easy to find, like Apple’s website. The only problem is sometimes it’s hard to find the “bind and fly “ planes. I am using an iPad so maybe thats why.

    I’m an older customer. I don’t deal well with chatting or using the phone and texting stuff. It would be a great help if customers could talk to a live person not real happy with the way you have to go about contacting someone to resolve an issue. Thank you.

    Plane broken. Need parts. Took a month to get a servo. Took 10 more days to get a 5 cent mount. Another part - servo cover - needed can’t be purchased separately. After assembly - product failed again. Needed a customer support rep. Couldn’t call - no more Elite tech support. Waited 1/2 twice on chat function - never got to a human that could help. Still trying to fix my broken Ultrix 600. Feel extremely unsupported.

    The kit I was interested in had ZERO details about what was in it. I needed to know if includes a certain part to determine what else I need to order. Three attempts to get clarification from Customer Service yielded ZERO response. I even waited for a Tech Service chat for 20 minutes, going from 3 to 2 to 1 in the queue, then it hung up on me when I was being transferred to (supposedly) a real person. You literally cannot get someone on the phone at Horizon unless you are a platinum level customer, the rest of us get treated like trash. So now I am ordering BLIND hoping to get the right parts. In the last year, Horizon Hobby's customer service has gone from mediocre to non-existent.

    There is a real problem with the website and movement. I cannot go back to a previous page, I have to start over with new query. If I type in receivers, it shows me transmitters, if I type in Spektrum receiver, it shows me transmitters. It is very difficult and time consuming to search the website. When I tried to apply the rewards while in the cart making my purchase, I had to open a new browser window to get the rewards number and then copy and move back to the cart to apply the discount. Very difficult to move around. I have been complaining about this for a long time and there are lots of discussions at the field about how difficult it is to buy from Horizon.
