Invisible customer service
Shocking customer service, we have left numerous messages. When we do get through they lie about visits. Terrible company.

Non existent customer service
I along with my sister have been attempting to get in touch with sofatime regarding an outstanding credit note that they owe to our elderly mother. We have sent emails and left answer message calls to their customer services phone number. This has covered a two week period and still no response. We have also previously been back to the shop where the bed was purchased but they direct us to the company email/telephone number. The customer service number is going straight to answer service despite phoning within the advertised opening hours
Edit. As noted in the reply from Sofatime they eventually got back in touch and sorted for issue which is appeciated despite the hassle we had to go through.

Great customer service
Just purchased our new sofa from the Coleraine store with the help of the salesman Tony. He took his time to go over every detail and took into consideration what we were really looking for. Tony and the other staff made our visit to the store really welcoming, it was a pleasure to purchase from them and we would highly recommend this store.

Sofatime Derry Store
We were recently in the Derry store where Dan helped us pick a corner sofa to suit our space. We were struggling to find a comfortable sofa we both loved especially with the tight dimensions we were working with. Dan was really patient and helpful, measuring the sofas we liked, and we love the one we ended up buying.
Excellent service from Lizzie
Lizzie was excellent. Great knowledge and took time to explain everything. Really delighted with the service and looking forward to getting a lovely new sofa 😊
And there is more!
