Beware if you require a refund - I was incorrectly charged shipping - I spent over the required amount for free shipping but couldn't check out without paying the charge. I was assured that they would refund me the amount but this has not arrived back on my credit card. No issues with the products but this leaves a nasty taste....

DO NOT HONOR WARRANTY! I WILL NOT BUY THIS EVER AGAIN!

Terrible! To start off, on the website it suggests buying more items to get free shipping, which I did - they still charged me shipping. Not a great start. The item I ordered to get free shipping came next day, but the item I actually went on to get has still not arrived and its been weeks. When you message them on whatsapp they tell you they will get back to you but dont. 5 days ago my package was showing as being in the UK on the tracking link, today it says is in Hong Kong... I have had no update. For what you pay, you can get better quality cases in a reasonable amount of time. I would shop around and avoid spending money with this company.

UPDATE: After many go-arounds with Native Union Customer Service, the company has agreed to replace the cable: Hi Ruth, Thank you for providing the video for our reference and we saw that the cable is indeed faulty. To proceed with the replacement please kindly if this is the correct and updated shipping address so we can proceed. [Address redacted] Warm Regards, xxxx Customer Support Team Native Union ____ If I converted my time into dollars, the cable ended up costing me hundreds of dollars. But it is important to hold companies accountable and put their feet to the fire. Perhaps this will make their policies and they way that they handle customers worse, not better, since they have another roadmap about how their warranty policy needs to be updated to avoid handling claims that serve the interest of their customers, or hopefully, the way that they handle their claims and customer complaints will revert to how my claim on my other cable was handled two years ago–with professionalism and courtesy. The important thing is to research thoroughly, in real time, a company and their products to get the best products and services available. ____ EBAY now offers a two year warranty that you would need to purchase in addition to the product. Unfortunately, two years would not have been enough time to cover a warranty for Native Union's inferior products. ____ ORIGINAL COMPLAINT: Bought two cables: Native Union Belt Cable Universal - 6.5ft Ultra-Strong Reinforced [MFi Certified] Durable Charging Cable with 3-in-1 Adaptor for Lightning, USB-C and Micro USB. Connectors keep coming loose. Native Union only had to replace one of two DEFECTIVE cables. The USB-C connector stopped working and I filed a claim. Native Union says that they do not cover their cables bought from EBAY. Native Union replaced one of two cables (see below), and we wired the connectors together on the cable that was not replaced so that we would only use the USB-C connector. Strange, since they replaced one of the cables bought from EBAY back in 2024. (see below). ____ Warranty Claim Native Union Customer Support Tue, Dec 31, 2024 at 11:40 AM Reply-To: Native Union Customer Support To: Ruth Thank you for providing the needed information.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. ____ Native Union cables are covered by a LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY which, now, they refuse to honor! Their products are pure CRAP! We will never purchase anything from this company again. As they are unable to manufacture a quality product that does not fall apart; they change their policies to avoid their responsibilities to the consumer. AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE! ____ Native Union is flooding me with emails asking me about my experience with them. I have sent 3 emails with documentation, including the receipt, a video, an image and updated information. Now they are asking for the original listing. This is the new "wrinkle." Native Union is trying to exhaust me by flooding me with daily email requests while asking for a rating in separate emails about my experience. In trying to avoid fulfilling their claims, Native Union is stating that if the product is not listed as "new", the claim is invalid and will not be covered by their Limited Lifetime Warranty--no matter that the cables were in NEW condition and were packaged in SEALED, UNDAMAGED boxes. Now they are saying that the cables were on sale and are not eligible for a warranty, even though prior claim offered to replace both cables which were defective. I will continue to follow-up on their ridiculous requests and will update this review as needed.

I bought so many of their charging cables — the 240W 3-meter ones (the black and white long cables) and the green Lightning-to-Type-C cable (I forgot the exact name). I even bought two of their black 140W charging bricks. They all broke very quickly, within 1 to 1.5 years. One of the 140W chargers’ cables shorted for no apparent reason. This charger has a serious design flaw: its dynamic charging and current-distribution system gets messed up when you connect multiple cables at the same time, resulting in severely disproportionate charging power. I’m talking about cases where an unused cable tricks the brick into thinking it needs power, which then prevents it from supplying enough power to the devices that are actually in use. On top of that, their charging cables are clumsy and poorly built — they break far too easily. Don’t buy from them.

Again ordered a package of charging belt cables usb-a to lightening and native Union shipped incorrectly, as well native Union charging premium prices offering lifetime warranties with the belt charge cords then after the fact changing the warranties to limited time and not honoring the warranty sold with the product nor offering a full refund in lieu internal changes, absolutely an unacceptable business practice from a terrible company!!

Il prodotto è indubbiamente molto bello...finché dura!! Ma da una cover che costa 10 volte del normale non mi aspettavo certo che fosse distrutta dopo soli 10 mesi di normale utilizzo. L'attacco del city grip si è rotto dopi soli 6 mesi. Anche la cover dopo 4-5 mesi era già rovinata. Sconsigliatissimo, non buttate così i vostri soldi

Worst company and scam, sells you outdated AirPods Pro case and doesn’t refund you. Don’t believe them. I kept the phone case but the quality is plastic build not at all what you believe you will get with the pictures.
