Outstanding service!

From the moment I called the store, the guy who answered, I think his name was Matt, couldn't have been any more helpful. In this day of unhelpful online purchasing, this was a breath of fresh air!
Great advice and service!
I'll definitely be using Richer Sounds for any of my tech purchases in future.
Keep up the good work!

What fantastic customer service.

After deciding to head to richer sounds in Southgate. My wife and I received fantastic service from Mak. He listened to our wants and budget. Selected the perfect TV. Unboxed and checked the tv was fully working before we left the shop. And I forget to mention he stayed almost an hour after closing. What dedication. If only I could find staff for my business with his dedication.

I spoke with Mak at the Southgate branch. He was helpful, direct and provided me with all the information and advice I needed, so the next day I called back and purchased our 55" TCL P7K-UK QLED TV for less than I imagined I'd need to pay for such a great TV.

Excellent company - as always!

What can I say! Richer Sounds - what an excellent company in all ways. They have vast selection, competative prices, knowledgable, approachable and friendly staff and nothing is too much for them. They are always our go to store. Bought a TV and Soundbar this time. Thank you Richer Sounds.

Exceptional service and efficiency.

I want to thank Richer Sounds Southgate branch for their superb service from quoting on the Chord Odyssey X speaker cables to my required length, the swift order & delivery, the terminals prep and fitment of banana plugs. Many thanks to Mak the deputy manager, Ali the manager and his team for their exceptionally helpful, friendly and efficient service from start to finish. They are all of course very knowledgeable about the products and give you honest advice.
I've been a longtime fan of Richer Sounds since Julian Richer had the London Bridge shop and the service then when I first bought my set of HiFi separates some 40 years ago was first class, just as it has always been over the years, and again recently from my experience at the Southgate branch.
My go to branch for any HiFi or TV requirements.
It's always worth checking with your local Richer Sounds store when looking for any Hifi, TVs or associated accessories. I found the team have always been brilliant, helpful, friendly, enthusiastic and they will always do their best for you as their valued customer.

Very prompt responses.

Very prompt responses.

Delivery messaging a little confusing as getting updates from DPD saying I'll have my parcel 'today' etc but I was picking up from store. Didn't need delivery updates as I was collecting from store.

Couldn’t care less service

I’ve just returned from Richer Sounds in Southgate where an east European lady treated me to some excellent “ couldn’t care less if I get a sale or not” attitude. She stood with her arms folded, her head tilted sideways in a more than bored fashion and gave me one word answers to my questions. Suffice to say I left the store and I’ll never go in a Richer Sounds again.

I was most concerned to read of your experience which sounds extremely unusual, and offer my apologies of course. Please can you get in touch with me directly so that I can investigate urgently?

Always put the customer experience front and centre. No hard sell. Prices are great and love the experience of shopping in richer sounds - they've been great for me since student days back in the late 90's.

Best Store Sales Experience In Years

Daniel the sales manager who served me a set up the demo room, went through the different options and spent time explaining everything, fully understanding my brief. He managed the other customers expectations into waiting times while he continued to help me. Put together the package and leant shop demo unit while awaiting delivery of my brand new equipment, which arrived in two days. It was truly rare experience these days to get such totally satisfying service end to end. A on top was very, very pleased with the equipment purchased.
