Hi guys,

We’ve provided a small collection of VKB community links on the webshop that you might find useful.

Most of them are official VKB channels on various social media platforms (as well as the trusty ol’ discussion forum), and a couple of unofficial ones to peruse.

Hi guys,

We have noticed that some customers didn’t receive our automated emails after placing an order, and some didn’t receive manual replies to the webshop inquiries they’ve sent.

This issue has now been resolved.

This seems to have affected mainly customers with Yahoo.com email addresses, and if you think you’ve been affected, feel free to contact us so we can resend your order confirmation and order details manually.

Hi guys,

After reports from an increasing number of customers over the past several months of not seeing our emails due to them getting falsely labeled as spam (shakes fist at Google Mail), we have decided to change our email address to

info@vkbcontrollers.com

From our end, any automated email generated from the webshop (e.g., order/cancellation/refund confirmations), and any manual email from us to you will also be made from this new email address from here on out.

Please update your records accordingly to reflect our email address change on your end, as the previous email address is no longer being used or monitored, effective immediately.

Until next time,
