We regret to hear about the finance application and refund process issues. We appreciate your feedback and the time you've taken to share this. The finance application is with a third party and checks they do depend on if you are successful. We'll review these concerns internally, Megan at Customer Care

Absolutely Disgusted with Benson Beds…

Absolutely Disgusted with Benson Beds Delivery Service - AVOID!
I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration with the utterly appalling delivery service I received from Benson Beds. I recently purchased a mattress from your store, and the entire experience has been a nightmare.
During the purchase process, I specifically confirmed with the salesperson that the delivery team would bring the mattress upstairs to my bedroom. This was a crucial factor in my decision to buy from Benson Beds, as I am physically unable to carry a mattress myself. The salesperson assured me this wouldn't be a problem.
Fast forward to the delivery day, and the two delivery men refused to bring the mattress upstairs. Their excuse? They claimed they couldn't bend the mattress due to the springs inside. This is completely unacceptable! If the mattress couldn't be maneuvered upstairs, I should have been informed of this before I made the purchase. The salesperson clearly misled me, and the delivery team offered no solution whatsoever. They simply left the mattress in my hallway, leaving me stranded and incredibly inconvenienced.
Now I'm left with a brand new mattress blocking my hallway, and I have no way of getting it to my bedroom. This is beyond ridiculous. The complete lack of communication and the blatant disregard for customer service is shocking.
I am incredibly dissatisfied with Benson Beds. I would strongly advise anyone considering purchasing a mattress from this company to think twice. If they can't even deliver a mattress as promised, what else can they mess up? I had contacted the customer service to let them know what had happened and she said i wll come back to you on this matter and i haven't response yet. Until then, I will be sharing my experience with everyone I know, and I will certainly
not be recommending Benson Beds to anyone. Everyone in all the departments needs to know we the coustmer are paying for thier wages and my purchase and paid for the delivery charges and still end up asking neighbours to help put the mattress to the bedroom and my purchase was not small amount.very sad that they hire companies who do half thier jobs and rip off people

We're very sorry to hear about the trouble you experienced with your mattress delivery. It is unacceptable that the delivery team didn't bring the mattress upstairs as agreed and that you haven't received a response from customer service. We appreciate your patience as we put this right for you.
Thank you,

Attentive sales staff whilst not being overbearing. I think the delivery charges are unpalatable and need to be reconsidered.

As landlords we were looking to replace a couple of mattresses and managed to make it to the Bensons sale. I was really happy with the prices I achieved and I think their disposal of old mattresses is a fairly priced service. As I am on my own, it was a relief to be informed that I need not move the old mattresses because the delivery team will remove them from the beds themselves and wrap them in green polythene to carry them out. What a relief!

Croydon Store Experience

Given time to browse after some initial advice. There was no pressure to make a decision or a sale.
Pleasant experience as my teen was unsure- 1st time he was actually choosing a mattress for himself.
Thank you Zahid
