Great help from a rather cool assistant in the Manchester Arndale store who helped process an online order with an HMV voucher. Delivery was prompt and really well packaged. Faultless.

Jane McDonald

Hi I went to a CD signing with Jane McDonald at HMV Manchester. 250 people turned up. It was very well organised & even though we waited in the queue for 2 hours, everyone was excited to meet Jane & we met some lovely people. The staff at HMV were very polite & respectful, so thank you & Jane was so lovely.

Staff were excellent and very friendly. Visited for the Jane McDonald event. Mum was in a wheelchair and the staff assisted from start to finish without any fuss. Made the experience stress free and enjoyable.

Blu Rays Manchester

You can buy more blu rays online then they have in the HMV shop. They don't stock many in the Manchester store like they used to do.

Lovely

Today was my first visit to HMV, and it honestly couldn’t have been a better experience. I attended the signing event with Jeff Goldblum, and everyone, including Jeff himself, was incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming.
Our car broke down earlier that day, so my husband couldn’t help with the children as he awaited breakdow ncover. The staff were completely understanding and had no issue with my kids staying with me during the signing. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The children were even given signed photos and photo taken which meant so much to them.
It was such a positive and memorable experience for our whole family. Shopping experience was a bliss too. Thank you for your kindness and professionalism – we truly appreciate it.

Jeff Goldblum signing

I went to the Jeff Goldblum signing in Manchester it was really well organised and actually pretty fast given the amount of people who was there.

My one nitpick is I had emailed Hmv and spoken to them re my autism and osteoarthritis and was told the ticket was changed to what I believed to be a access/fast track so I didn't need to stand to long and in case my anxiety kicked in.
I was stood with a stick for an hour and no one seemed to notice me till I got towards the end when my leg was starting to hurt.
I did inform the people who scanned the ticket and was told not to worry so I thought it had come up on their tablet and some one would come at get me.

HOWEVER it may sound like big thing it wasn't that big has some one did see me and it was sorted.

The event it's self was really well organised.
