UK’s Most Awarded PC Manufacturer

As one of the top manufacturers of UK gaming computers, Chillblast is no stranger to winning awards. In fact, we’ve taken first place in the PC Pro Excellence Awards (previously known as the ‘Reliability and Service Awards’) a record ten times. We’ve also been named ‘Desktop Retailer of the Year’ by PC Advisor for four consecutive years.

But doesn’t mean competition wasn’t intense. Chillblast was up against some of the biggest names in the industry, including Apple, Dell, PC Specialist and Scan. In the most recent round of awards (2018), Chillblast took first place with an astounding 97% customer satisfaction rating.

The secret to our consistently high rankings and stellar customer-satisfaction ratings is simple. You see, from the time that you enquire about a Chillblast gaming computer to the moment it’s delivered, you’ll be dealing with representatives who really understand your needs. That’s because Chillblast only employs PC experts – even for customer service positions.

When you call in, you’ll rarely have to wait before speaking to a representative. And we also check our email regularly in order to offer prompt call-backs. The result is a seamless service model in which you’re kept in the loop and confident that the representative you’re dealing with understands your technical needs and expectations.

5 Year Warranty (Terms & Conditions Apply)

Given the fact that we manufacturer some of the best gaming desktops currently available, it should come as no surprise that we’re willing to stand beside our craftsmanship. Chillblast’s industry-leading warranty offers two phases of protection.

Our standard warranty begins with a two-year collect-and-return package, during which time we offer local-rate telephone support and unlimited repairs. We’ll both collect and return your custom pc at no charge. This applies to all models – whether you purchased a cheap gaming desktop or an ultra-high-spec custom built PC.

But we don’t stop there. Chillblast also offers an additional three years of warranty coverage after your collect-and-return package expires. During those three years, we’ll continue to provide labour-only support.

We believe this is one of the best warranties available from any custom PC builder in the UK. And if you’re looking for additional peace of mind, we also offer a 3 Year Gold Collect-and-Return Warranty as a potential add-on for desktop PCs specifically.

Buy a gaming desktop or custom build PC from Chillblast, and the benefits continue long after that initial five-year period. Even out of warranty, Chillblast is delighted to offer customers exclusive upgrades and repair services with discounted parts and subsidised collection, delivery and labour charges.

The full terms and conditions of our warranty can be found here.

On what basis are we entitled to process your data?

 

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Data protection law sets out a number of different legal grounds upon which data controllers can legally process personal data.

 

In most cases, we process your data in order to take steps at your request before entering into a contract with you, or because the processing is necessary to perform our contract with you.

 

If the processing is not related to your contract, we will process your information on one of the following bases:

 

  • You have given clear consent for us to process your personal data.

 

  • Our legitimate interests, which include:
    • developing our products and growing our business

In accordance with data protection law, we make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights before we process your data for our legitimate interests. If the potential impact on you and your rights overrides our legitimate interests, we will not process your data, unless we are able to do so using a different legal basis.

  • Where the processing is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, a court order or to exercise or defend legal claims.

How long we will keep your data for?

We will provide you with phone and email support for the lifetime of your PC. To do this, we will need to keep details of you and your order, so we can retrieve these details if you contact us. So that we don’t keep your data indefinitely, we will keep your personal data for a maximum of 12 years. After 12 years, the only information that we will retain is information to enable us to identify the PC as one that we have manufactured. Our customer database is cleansed annually and all customer data that is no longer required is deleted.

Who do we disclose your information to?

We may need to pass on your information to service providers who provide services on our behalf. During the life of our relationship it is likely that the identity and categories of third parties will change.  Your data will only be used by our third party providers to provide the requested services to us and each service provider is subject to a set of terms consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Do we transfer your data outside of the UK?

 

Some of our external third party suppliers or service providers are based outside of the UK, so their processing of your personal data may involve a transfer of data outside the UK.
