Company entered administration and failed to fulfil customer orders.
“The company has gone into administration but are still taking orders”
Reviews show a clear divide: a number of customers received prompt delivery, clear guidance and ready‑to‑ride products, while many others report unresolved refunds, delivery failures and unresponsive support. Several complaints reference administration or order fulfilment issues and severe delays in refunds; other reviews single out named staff members for good service. If you are considering Electric Rider, confirm stock availability, documented delivery times and payment protection (card or bank guarantees) before paying. Keep records of all communications and prefer payment methods that allow chargebacks or disputes if fulfilment problems arise.

Poor Services!!
I ordered 2 Electric moped scooters from Electric Rider’s company. it took 4 weeks to get to my home in Canada. Their customer service was a nightmare to deal with. I asked for a full refund and they said no, I asked them to pay to ship back and they said no. I only received one bike . They wouldn't give me a number to talk to a supervisor or manager
They wanted me to ship the bike back at my cost which would have been over $500.+. After fighting with them for over a week I finally got my money back for the Scouter that was never sent.
