Don’t know if this post okay or not but will try anyway.

I ordered a keyboard of Akko’s own EU website. I have since changed my mind and do not want it anymore. The parcel is unopened and I have offered to sent it back for a refund.

However Akko won’t honor their own terms on their website regarding returns/refunds. They keep offering me 5 euros and eventually 10 euros in refund for me to keep it instead. But I have found another keyboard and do not want this one anymore.

They just refuse to honor their own terms so I have taken a last resort to contact American Express and letting their dispute team handle the matter.

Anyone else that’s had a bad experience with Akko?

    You dodged a bullet anyway, i had a full keyboard and switches from akko and they all failed after a year.

      did the switches themselves fail? I know the akko switches have thinner leaf springs, and I avoided buying them for that reason, but that was just speculation

          I had a similar issue… luckily I was already looking at my first custom, so it wasn’t a huge deal for me. Annoying I no longer have a backup keyboard though.

      Ive been using akko Switches on many Boards now… 2 of them are daily drivers. Never had a Problem. Oldest one is 3 years old…

      Might be a Problem on your side, and Not the Switches or Boards as such.
