It seems the norm these days

It seems the norm these days, that companies are focused on selling. Its when there are issues that shows how good or bad customer service is. My LG tv bought from Ellis at Richer Sounds, and less than 3 months old, refused to work. After messaging Richer Sounds to log the issue, I decided to contact LG direct hoping to speed things up, being keen not to miss the World Cup and the golf open on the 77 inch screen. To cut a very long story short. LG's customer services was deplorable.
Ellis got involved and arranged a replacement tv, which arrived within 7 days. Ellis and his manager Sam kept me informed throughout. It's so refreshing these days to be able to deal with a company that actually phones you back and doesn't hide behind a barricade of technology, with endless hoops to jump through before you finally hang up in frustration.

A good range of quality items, nice staff

On entering the shop, I was instantly greeted by friendly staff, they were knowledgeable and helpful. They offered products to suit my needs. The unit I purchased is excellent. Perfect for my system. Richer Sounds was a recommendation from my brother, he was full of praise for your shop, and I have to agree. Thanks for your service and quality range.

TV in a rush for the footy!

Checked stock of wanted TV via email and store manager replied in minutes saying he had put it aside. Picked up on way home from work and they loaded it into the car. All sorted in less than an hour start to finish!

Once again RS you have excelled. But let down by courier

Once again RS you have excelled on price and delivery times, I ended up paying for next day delivery because we realised we would not be at home later in the week. Box arrived damaged and soon found tv screen was broken, many thanks to your team that sorted a replacement out for 8.30 am the following day, however this box was also damaged but TV was working ok. Our son uses a certain selling site and now refuses to use this courier due to damaged articles.

I bought an LG G5

I bought an LG G5, from curry's and was awaiting delivery. It was £2300. I then saw that Richer Sounds was offering the same TV but at £1899 and including an LG sound bar, worth £799. WHAT A DEAL!!! Naturally I cancelled the order with Curry's. Unfortunately there was a bit of a mix up with the delivery date from Richer Sounds. However, they pulled out all of stops and honored the delivery date that had been promised!! They always answer the phone quickly and no question is too much trouble for them. Exceptional service.
