Hi Adrian,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write us a review. Your feedback is much appreciated. Here at DFS we use trusted 3rd party finance companies who use the information you provide us at the point of sale, to make a decision on whether you are accepted for interest free credit or not.
This decision is not made by DFS, I can appreciate this process may be frustrating and apologies for any inconvenience caused.
After reviewing the order I can see you have reordered and the deposit paid has been transferred across. As you have transferred the deposit, this is not due as a refund as well. Rest assured I have arranged for the store to call and discuss this with you in greater detail to avoid any further confusion.
Kind regards,
Lia

A very positive experience! But with a caveat!
Very helpful showing us different options like removable arms for ease of delivery. We were not followed around but could try everything at our own pace which was appreciated as we never felt pressurised even though it took some time to decide! Exceptionally nice staff. Upon ordering everything was explained very well and even checked by another staff member for clarity. Would recommend.
Update to this - since writing this glowing report, an issue has come to light about our order which we only realised after doing online research on DFS website. We rang customer service number since you cannot ring any store direct and they said they would get the manager of store to call us. Over two hours passed, no call so we rang again only to be told it takes 3 days for a store to call you. Really??!! This is NOT customer service hence marked down

Eastbourne store staff
Tracy was very helpful at the Eastbourne store. She told us the facts and figures, didn’t pressure us, let us decide for ourselves before giving us further details.
She was very friendly and asked about us to make us feel at ease

Fabulous experience
Fabulous experience, a wonderful environment to sofa-search, we were left alone to make a decision but there were plenty of staff available to help us with any questions. We had measured up in advance, which really helped. We found James really helpful and he talked us through the purchase and finance options and we finalised the deal. All staff were friendly and patient.

The lady that helped us (sorry, I have forgotten her name) was incredibly friendly and knowledgable and I didnt feel like she was in any way pushy. We walked away very happy and excited to get our new sofas

Experience at Eastbourne DFS
Tracy and Jay took time to listen to me and answered what I was unsure about. There was no pressure, and allowed plenty of time to think things through. Don’t think they could have been any more helpful.

We were very pleased with our visit to Eastbourne DFS yesterday and received great service.
We were very pleased with our experience at Eastbourne DFS as we were asked if we needed assistance but left to wander and make our own decision. The salesman was very polite and helpful and the whole buying experience was made very easy.
