Great service in store but told its genuine Italian leather, but if you dig deeper it is leather from Argentina, frame from China but the leather is dyed in Italy which is why the delivery time is so... See more

An absolute disgrace and that's being generous! Ordered 4th January, promised a March delivery. Feb 28th recieved new order as there was an issue. No explanation or contact and they changed delivery to May. When sofa arrived (we ordered a 4 seater) they tried to deliver a 7 seater 5m long monstrosity! Now I'm fighting to get my money back head office tells us is stores responsibility but store tells us it's head office.

Meanwhile we have no sofa and no money. Avoid!

Delivery was good apart from SCS giving rubbish tracking information and changing delivery days 3 times. I spent two weeks lying on the floor as my old suite was collected 2 days before first delivery day was arranged. I spent £2500.00 in SCS and they didn’t supply the gliders so phoned up. Lady said she would email store at Fosse Park but had nothing and that was 2 weeks ago. They take your money but just ignore you after. I’ll never buy from SCS again. I have sent numerous emails to them, including the Customer Service but ignored again.

Best Salesperson and delivery drivers, worst customer service

We have great experience from the time we order it from the Leicester store to delivery process. Jagpal (the salesperson) took the time to understand our needs, offered honest advice, and helped us find the perfect sofa without any pressure. Excellent customer service.

And to Simon and Kiran (delivery drivers) who delivered our sofa even though it was not supposed to be them, thank you very much! Thank you for your outstanding service. Your professionalism and care in handling the sofa.

However, I am giving three star instead of five due to the bad customer service. The hotline is unavailable. What is the point of having a hotline that doesn't call back, no waiting time and basically unresponsive.

Joe was great!

Visited the Leicester Fosse Park store yesterday. Went in with a certain style in mind, but changed my mind once in there to go for a recliner sofa. Joe's was happy to take me round and show me all the range of recliner sofas they had in the showroom, explaining what functions each had, the different fabrics etc. He was a complete star and we hope to go back and order from there once we have decided!

SCS asking for feedback - but have no sofa!

Interestingly we have been asked to review a sofa that has yet to be delivered! Someone not talking to each other.
Order was placed and hefty deposit paid at end of Jan 2025. Have been waiting very patiently for 3+ months for sofa which should have been with us on 2nd May.
Have had no update or correspondence at all since order was placed from the store or anyone else.
Have tried to call on a number of occasions and been on hold for a VERY long time. Will have to result in visiting in person tomorrow - on a bank holiday which we are not looking forward to.
Really hoping this isn’t going to turn into a nightmare experience as we have been waiting months for our new sofa. Really really disappointing start.

Good Morning Maimuna,

Thank you for your review, I hope you are well.

I am very sorry that you are waiting on an update regarding your delivery date.
As the order is not in your name we would be unable to discuss any details with yourself however we have responded to the review from the account holder a little earlier this morning also.

We are still awaiting delivery

We are still awaiting delivery - interesting how our feedback has been asked for.
No correspondence at all since we placed the order with any delivery date or progress. We are hoping for an interim sofa - but that hasn't materialised either.
It was scheduled for delivery 2nd May and we have been waiting patiently since end of Jan 2025.
Have tried to call on a number of occasions and been on hold for a VERY long time - with no answer. Even requested a call back - but again no responce.
Will have to result in visiting the store in person tomorrow - not looking forward to it being the bank holiday.
Not a very good start at all and very disappointing.
Hoping this is not going to turn into a nightmare having waited 3+ months for our sofa and paid a hefty deposit for it.

Good Morning Sajid,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking the time to leave us your review.

I am very sorry that you are waiting on your delivery from us, I can see from your order document that we did initially estimate for this to arrive with us around 02/05/25.
As this date is estimated we do advise that it can change by 4 weeks either side as per your terms and conditions.

We are expecting that your furniture will arrive at our Distribution Centre on 09/05/25 and our bookings team will be in touch with the first available delivery date.

Please accept my apologies also for the difficulty experienced also when trying to contact us.
Should you require any further help then please feel free to email us at socialmedia@scs.co.uk.

Kind Regards,
Lynsey - ScS Social Media Team

Changing our sofa was a pleasure from beginning to end and that’s entirely down to the efficiency and professionalism of the ScS staff whether it was in the showroom, distribution centre or the delivery guys who were above and beyond. Thankyou.

Fab Service

Spencer listened to our needs and spent time showing us different styles of sofa until we found one that matched our requirements. He was knowledgeable and friendly throughout the visit.

Terrible customer service

Ordered two sofas. Both delivered on different dates and one was the wrong colour! When I went back into the SCS shop the one in the showroom had a higher back and therefore gave more support to my neck than the one that was delivered to me. I’ve tried to email them 3 times and no reply back. I am so disappointed with such terrible service. Still waiting for resolution

I am so sorry to read that you have concerns with your furniture and found it difficult getting through to one of our aftercare agents. I understand this would cause frustration and upset.
I have had a look into your account and can see the issues have now been logged on our system and the next steps have been taken.

I deeply apologise again.

Good Morning Clair

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, I hope you are well.

I am deeply sorry that you have found difficulty trying to contact us to arrange delivery.
The delivery charge is always shown on your sales invoice however I do understand this should be discussed at the point of sale and apologise that you feel this was not.
I can see on your account that one of our staff tried to contact you yesterday to book in the delivery and take payment however was unsuccessful. One of our agents will try again today.

Thank you

The sales assistant Joe was brilliant at Fosse Park Leicester. The wait time of over 12 weeks is too long. And why such a large deposit when I am waiting 3 months for the product.
