Not happy with customer service
Firstly I would have given 5 stars for the lady who served me when placing my order in store but when I popped into the store to see if my order had arrived the guy wasn't nice at all. I asked him if he could check to see if my order was in and he said abruptly NO, if I hadn't had an email to say it was in store then it wont be, so I asked him if he could just have a look for me he said point blank NO, I was shocked by this attitude as the lady previously was wonderful, so very disappointed and I still have not received my order as yet.

I love HMV
I love HMV, what a fantastic service they still provide, being able to have such a huge variety of physical media at your fingertips with reasonable prices in 2024 is astounding.
One of the few high street stores left where you can walk in and get that rare blu-ray/dvd/cd and it’s yours forever.
The staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and the service they provide is excellent.
Thank you so much!

Choice
Choice, ease of ordering and prompt delivery.
One slight nick would be the lack of interpersonal skills of the assistant in store where I picked up the delivery, he wasn’t offhand but wasn’t overtly friendly either.

HMV- what a joke.
On Saturday (9th march) I rang ring and reserve to reserve a copy of Neon Genesis Evangelion HMV Exclusive on blu ray. It showed that there was a limited stock available in Gateshead Metro Centre HMV store. I was happy about it, so even tho I had cold and cough I took a bus and went for a 40 minutes journey (one way). When I arrived at shop a copy was reserved, but it wasn’t an edition I asked for. Needless to say I didn’t buy it. I was mislead by your website and your services. I will be closing my hmv account and I’ll never shop with you again.
Very unprofessional. And then they send me an email saying “Sorry for the inconvenience “. What a joke.

Hi Pawel
Thanks for leaving us a review.
We are sorry to hear there was an issue with the reservation and apologies for any disappointment as a result of this.
We would always recommend when calling our Ring & Reserve services, double checking any information with them before reserving. We also have barcode numbers on all of our online listings which our team can use to ensure they are reserving the correct item for you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
