Timewasters who don't want to give young people a chance.

Son applied for a job at Loaf in response to an advertisement for part time staff. Was rejected in under 12 hours with no reason or feedback given.

If you are advertising to hire people and someone invests their time and care applying, at least have the decency to interview them. I suspect nobody even looked at his application.

This company doesn't deserve good quality employees.

Hi Lana,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I'm truly sorry to hear about your son's experience following his application for a part-time position with us. We completely understand how disappointing it can be to invest time and care into an application and not receive detailed feedback in return.
While we receive a high volume of applications and unfortunately can’t respond individually to each one, we never intend to make anyone feel undervalued. Every application is reviewed carefully, and we regret if this wasn’t reflected in the communication your son received.
Your feedback is important and will be shared with the relevant team to help us improve how we communicate with candidates in future. We wish your son all the best with his job search and sincerely hope he finds an opportunity that appreciates his time and talent.
Kind regards,

Loaf sofa choices made much easier with a visit to Loaf Edinburgh shack

Visiting the Edinburgh Loaf shack was very helpful in choosing sofas from the fantastic Loaf range. Most models and many colours are available on display - and the free swatches make choice from the full range of colours easy to compare with colours at home. Very helpful and friendly service too. All in all an excellent experience.

Excellent service

Both visiting your Edinburgh shack and ultimately ordering on line were excellent experiences. The Straiton staff were warm, helpful and welcoming, our black lab loves visiting there, they make such a fuss of him. I look forward to my ottoman arriving.

Excellent product & good communication…

Excellent product & good communication (but the jolly, twee language grates after a few too many emails). Sadly it took three jolly calls to get the correct address. Clarity about whether a large, heavy coffee table counts as large or small (therefore whether the delivery people will or won’t unpack & remove the packaging) would be helpful. However the packaging was effective & didn’t involve unnecessary plastic. I had guests here, who kindly helped me to unpack- might have been a bit tricky otherwise. I’d certainly buy again & just grit my teeth about the jolliness/make sure I’m 100% sure what the delivery involves.

Hi Guen,

Thank you so much for your kind words about the product and communication, we’re really glad to hear you’re pleased overall and that your coffee table arrived safely.

That said, we really appreciate your honest feedback regarding the tone of our emails and the delivery experience. We aim to keep things light and friendly, but we hear you, too much “jolliness” can start to grate, and it’s something we’ll take on board as we look to strike the right balance in how we communicate.

We’re also sorry for the confusion around your delivery address and the classification of the item. You’re absolutely right, more clarity around what counts as a ‘large’ item (and whether that includes unpacking and packaging removal) would be helpful, and we’ll review how we explain this to customers going forward.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts, it’s incredibly helpful, and we’re chuffed to know you’d still shop with us again.

Warm wishes,
Paris

A human being answered

A human being answered, listened, understood and sorted the problem in no time. Genuine Intelligence as opposed to the artificial stuff which leaves you angry, frustrated and wishing you had never bothered getting involved.
