I needed a mobile phone 'signal booster for my business in the Adelaide Hills. I tried everywhere and was almost going to give up when someone suggested to try Electric Bug. Electric Bug was able to get one in for me within 48 hours from one of their suppliers in Queensland. Next time Electric Bug will be my 'first port of call.

The management and team at Electric Bug more than met my expectations with supply and fitting of my CB equipment. They also pointed out and remedied an unrelated air con issue whith my 4x4 . This took an extra 50 minutes work, and for free! I certainly recommend them and their friendly engaging staff. No problems great deal.

  • Sarah Charleson

Your customer service is appalling you speak down to women ive noticed it hasn't only been just myself as I've read through your reviews. Dont understand how you are 4 stars. You were rude 6 months ago, were rude 2 weeks after and were rude and spoke to me like I didn't know what I was on about today. I dont recommend you.

  • Nigel Perrin

I was unable to download update maps on my old 2460lt gps (9 yrs old) even though i had lifetime maps. Eventually i took it to Electric Bug and their Bryce Cheffirs fixed my problem after taking the problem up with garmin on my behalf. As normal fantastic,friendly service as always.Highly recommend.

Hopeless, booked in for a job on a certain date just before midday. They got in contact with me & asked to bring in car asap. I arrive at 9.30 am & told job bigger than we estimated. Have to rebook a date & will cost more money. Errrrr no thank you. Lousy service, wasted my time & energy

Electric Bug came to the rescue in trying to recover a file on my Garmin 660. They had the skill and tried to fix the missing system file but Garmin itself had deleted the file. A big thanks to all the people at Electric Bug. They are the place I go to for my GPSes and RAM mounts

Had an aftermarket reverse camera installed in my Prado before I moved to the NT. Wasn't overly impressed with the installation quality. They removed the wiring for the clock above the head unit without letting me know which I only realised

After sales service is the key. Not only do they know their products but they put customer service on another level. I purchased a GPS navigator a few weeks before the Adelaide caravans camping show from them and the item was considerably

I had over $10,000 worth of work done by them on my motorhome. I had to request multiple times for them to provide me with quotes. After the work was done, I needed to return to fix problems. The work generally was of an average standard.

Took my UHF in for warranty repair. They've built a reputation in SA on "extreme product knowledge", but unfortunately not their customer service - the bloke I spoke also had "extreme arrogance". Won't be going there again!
