Advertising stock on website! When order is done and large payments gone through you told they have no stock available and offer refund, you agree and no refund is received! Terrible company! False advertising then holding on to peoples money and not refunding. Emails confirmed them saying they will refund and a month later you still begging for your money. One min Jon is dealing with it, next the accountants are dealing with it, story after story and they still sitting with my money and wont refund it ! Cow boys stealing peoples hard earned cash. Refund peoples money if you dont have the

I classify myself as a very fussy customer. I seek perfection, and will only give positive reviews if I find it. I can highly recommend Jonny. He listened to every detail I requested, and managed to supply, each and every thing that I asked for. Very easy to talk to, friendly, reliable, and totally trustworthy. Will remain on my small list of people I can highly recommend.

Would highly recommend ShowTec.
Having been let down I had to find equipment for a friends wedding. We hired a full setup including lights for a couple of days.
Johnny couldn't have been more helpful, the equipment had been fully tested, all leads supplied and he even made sure we had enough smoke fluid
The venue for the wedding commented on the sound, they were used to bass heavy systems and were impressed with the quality of the set up. Thank you ShowTec, thank you Johnny for your help.
