The poor delivery service

The Service I received from Dreams-Ilford was great.
The problem was in the delivery of my bed and mattress which has caused me to give them a 2 star rating.
I had previously emailed the Dreams to change the date of the delivery from the 14th of July 2025 to a time later in the afternoon or even a few days later, the reason being that they were fitting the carpet in my bedroom.
I received an email stating that if I wanted to change, I would have to pay a certain amount, so I just left it at that point.
On the day of the delivery , the 14th of July 2025, the driver phoned and said that they will be delivering the bed and mattress at 10:00am. I explained to him that I am having my bedroom carpet fitted during that time. He said he was not going to wait for that and he called his supervisor/manager.
The supervisor/manager then called me and while I was talking to him the carpet fitter arrived earlier than his booked time and he even said it was not going to take him long to do the job.
So the manager spoke to his crew and they came to our house.
Instead of behaving in a professional manner and respecting the carpet fitter, they offloaded the bed, blocking the hallway and even putting some of their equipment on the landing. At one point the carpet fitter asked them to move their items so that he can move around.
Another issue that really annoyed me was the conduct of the driver, he was fuming and saying I am leaving this bed as it is if my time is up. Neighbours and even the carpet fitter, they did not want to hear that at all. My home is full of peace and that grumbling was not called for at all.
The carpet fitter did not take long he kept to his word.
The dreams crew, the driver and his assistant, assembled the bed and the young man demonstrated a few steps to me and they even finished early too at 9:30am, instead of the allocated time of 8-10am.
The attitude of the driver, lack of knowledge about health and safety, if there was a fire it was going to be difficult for us to go out. His lack of respect for other tradesmen and the lack of respect towards us, the customers, led me to the 2 star rating.

Good afternoon Jeniya,

Thank you for your recent review.

I am sorry to hear that there were some issues on the delivery of your bed frame.

I appreciate you taking the time to speak to me earlier and hope we have come to a suitable resolution for you.

Kind Regards,

The experience in your shop was…

The experience in your shop was professional, warm, and cosy. We were served by Ayesha on 11th September and she was absolutely amazing! At the beginning of our visit we were lead to scanner, which scans our body measurements, back problems, posture problems. It was very precise.
Thanks to Ayesha’s help, we’ve now chosen our ‘dream’ mattress and can’t wait for the delivery. Excellent service and a wonderful person – highly recommended!

We were served by Ayesha on 11th September and she was absolutely amazing! From the moment we walked in, she made us feel welcome and comfortable. She took the time to explain everything clearly, guided us through the sleep machine, and showed us different mattresses to choose from. Her friendly attitude and great sense of humour made the whole experience fun – we laughed and really enjoyed our visit.

Thanks to Ayesha’s help, we’ve now chosen our ‘dream’ mattress and can’t wait for the delivery. Excellent service and a wonderful person – highly recommended!

Nice

I was welcomed by a very polite staff member. She showed me all the available mattresses and beds. She explained everything very politely. I was extremely impressed by her. I wish all the sales staff are as nice as her.

I saw a bed online that I really liked

I saw a bed online that I really liked, but I couldn’t commit to buying it without seeing the quality in person—especially since I was purchasing two. So, I popped into my local Dreams showroom. The assistant was very helpful, and I ended up buying it.

Good afternoon Rana,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review and for speaking with me today.

I am glad that that the 100-Night Comfort Guarantee will prove to be useful. I have sent you an email confirming what we discussed and look forward to hearing from you once you have visited your local store to choose a different mattress.

Many thanks,

Kishan
