Lack of information and communication!

We were not told about a delivery charge of over £100 despite spending nearly £3,000 on products.
Delivery notification told us 30 minutes away, arrived 2 hours later, apparently lorry broke down, but no communication from the operator despite an email sent by myself.
Paid £70 for 'sliders' on the settees but they never fitted them, just left in a bag and passed to my partner. How do we lift heavy settees to place them on.
Would be interested if I get a call/response personally or just through this platform.

We visited your Hedge End

We visited your Hedge End, Southampton store looking for a corner sofa unit. We were assisted in our search and completion of the purchase by Faiza, who was very thorough, efficient and charming.

My Parents-in-Law were very pleased with their experience.
Everything was explained fully but they did feel that the aftercare/insurance was “just added” although they are satisfied that they have it.

Excellent customer service from Josh

Excellent customer service from Josh yesterday, he was honest and friendly and despite being fairly new, was able to answer questions and guide us through the process. A calm and chilled experience, no pouncing as you walk in just nice to be left to loom and try at leisure

Singularly Useless

Singularly Useless. Delivered a sofa with a fault, took it back then redelivered the same sofa with the same fault "as new"

Store won't do anything about it. Don't bother, buy from someone else.

Good Afternoon Jon,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review and for bringing this issue to our attention, your feedback is always appreciated.

First of all I do want to take this opportunity to apologise on behalf of DFS for the experience you have received, I have taken a look into this and I understand this situation must be increasingly frustrating. I can assure you this is not how we like to treat our customers.

I have taken a look into your order and can see this has been raised to the store manager please be rest assured they will be in contact to discuss this further with you.
