Good at taking your money but after that it’s a nightmare they don’t answer the phones you have to keep going into the store after spending several thousands of pounds and getting sub standard products which they then blame us the customers for would never use them again or recommend them to anyone service is non existent avoid like the plague.

Bought Bed April 2019 for £2,554. In April 2022 it was repaired by Furniture Village. A year later it had fallen apart, and I had to put an old dining table on the divan to get the bed horizontal. Customer Services took many phone calls/emails and offered me a repair or £300, then £780. Furniture Village fought to get away with as little as possible and I had to get the Furniture Ombudsman involved who said I should get £1893 which they had to pay. Furniture Village are quick to make you a coffee and take your money, but their guarantees and customer service are worthless. Avoid avoid avoid!

They have delivered a partially damaged chest of drawers. Very expensive one. We've been on the phone with them about 10 times, getting frustrated. 3 months later they delivered the wrong replacement. I am done asking. Since I am a marketer, I am going to build a landing page with an attractive lead magnet and pay for the traffic. I will create a great Anti-Furniture Village Campaign, find all unhappy customers and invite them to leave negative video reviews. Let's see how Furniture Village likes it when people fight back!

We bought 2 leather sofas which arrived last November. By January the stitching in parts was freying. Homeserve came to "repair" it, but within another month it was back to how it was before. They sent someone else out again, who said it was not a maufacturing problem, but excessive wear?! How exactly has that happened in a matter of months?? We have been told by Furniture Village we can seek legal advice, if we don't like their decision to do nothing. In the meantime we are left with sofas that we paid nearly 4K for, which look shabby

Bought a sofa arrived 6 weeks overdue with a broken leg, had to fix it ourselves as customer service didn't get back to us. The trust pilot reviews are suspicious and I wouldn't believe them do not buy from them , and if you do you were warned

I found a small defect on my new sofa and reported it to customer services as soon asit was noticed about 2 weeks after delivery. and reported it .. I was told that customers only have 7 days to report a defect otherwise they will not repair /replace it. Wish they had told me that when I bought it. Seems to be good cop out of avoiding guarantees and promises of a quality product and service are forgotten after 7 days. I would never recommend F.Village to anyone after this. They just didn't want to listen or even acknowledge they delivered a defective item .

Please do not believe all the good reviews you see on Trustpilot. They are a load of nonsense. I have had the most appalling experience with Furniture Village. Like many people here, I have found their Customer Services to be lacking in wanting to help customers resolve any issues. Writing to the CEO is just as useless. No one in that company is interested in listening to any issues. They are only interested in getting your money. After that, whatever goes wrong - they will not do anything. I bought the Fenchurch Bedroom Furniture. I had the 4 door tall mirrored wardrobes delivered and built on the 26th May 2023. I immediately noticed damage. This was reported to the fitters and Furniture Village. Just over two weeks and Furniture Village ignore emails, never return calls, do not listen to any requests and are vague when you speak with them. I still have no idea what is happening with this damaged furniture. I was willing to get it repaired, but I have lost confidence in them. I then asked for them to come and take the damaged furniture away and new furniture delivered. No response so I have now asked my credit card to refund me for these goods. Unbelievable the lengths people have to go through to get a response from Furniture Village. Do yourselves a favour and keep away from them. Will save a lot unnecessary hassle. I just do not know why Furniture Village behave in this manner. They cannot possibly get returning customers. They do not even deserve the one star given!

The wrong item delivered back in Dec 2022 and it took 6 months to correct their mistake and I had to chase them. I was offered a £30 refund for the inconvenience after spending £3k It does seem they could not care less once they've got your money. Avoid, poor service

First bought the Dante leather 3 piece, 100% leather. After being delivered I was not convinced it was all leather. The sofa on one side seemed to droop so Castletown came out . I asked the technician if to the suite was leather and he confirmed no it was not. Went back to store and chose the Cressida suite , paid extra for the better leather. Big mistake, so uncomfortable and still not convinced this is a 100% leather. I h ave had Castletown out several times regarding the cushions padding which started to fail after 3 months only to be told nothing was wrong. I will not be ordering anything from FV ever.

Our dining table is 4 years old, its grey with a pattern impressed in it, so obvious this had not been sealed properly because the paint has lifted in parts leaving bare wood. It does not sit in the sun, i clean it with damp then dry cloth. We did expect a new table but even after inspecter came out, furniture village offered £150.00, 🤔 that was good of them wasn't it, it cost us £1400!!!

Furniture village is without a doubt the WORST company I have ever purchased from. I purchased their legend classic back fabric corner sofa back in October of 2022 and I have had nothing but problems with furniture village since. The man who I purchased the sofa with in the Exeter store placed the order incorrectly by choosing the wrong feet, he let me know he would go back and change this error after we had left (as the store was closing). The sofa was then delivered with the wrong feet which the shop worker obviously didn’t go back and amend. The delivery drivers described these chrome feet as “shark feet” as they “chew up wooden flooring” at the time I did not mind as it was just human error that I thought would be fixed soon enough. We also purchased the “glide set” which was to go on the feet of the sofa as our wooden flooring downstairs was all brand new having only just moved into the house and renovating at the time, the glide set was not compatible with the chrome feet that the sofa had been delivered with and therefore were now no use to us despite being charged for them. I got in contact with furniture village to request the correct feet to be sent out to us. I waited 3 weeks for a response from their customer service who then let me know that they will order the feet and have them delivered in 4-6 weeks. I have still not received the correct feet for the sofa 7 months later and subsequently the chrome feet have done as the delivery men said and complexly dug in and marked our brand new flooring. I have received little communication from furniture village as I have been the one to call each time I have spoken with them and emailed them on multiple occasions with no responses I have also been passed around from department to department, no one has even apologised for all of the inconvenience this has caused and even told me “property damage needs to be reported within 7 days of delivery” and not acknowledged that the damage has occurred due to the time taken to re deliver the correct sofa legs. The company was quick enough to get in contact with myself regarding payment but when it comes to any issues with your order or property damage will NEVER be resolved! I have also been told that I will revive a call back to get this situation sorted out, 7 months later and I have never received any call backs from the company with the excuse that “the number is wrong” despite me calling 4 different departments on 10+ occasions to update my contact number to the correct one. I will never buy anything from this company ever again

Ripp Off Britain! Points to Consider: 1. furniture village is guilty of poor customer experience, adding to their failed [non]exceptional customer service. 2. furniture village has delivered products (not all) and services that my wife and I have paid for, yet they consistently fail to meet any of our expectations, which we are victims of business, sales, and marketing trickery. 3. furniture village has shown limited value in exchange for the products and services that my wife and I have paid for. 4. furniture village has an inconsistent business model that lacks trust and resembles 'sports direct', especially from our experience – it seems as though furniture village has taken our money and ran! 5. Peter Harrison (CEO) is not interested in the quality of product and/or customer experience, he is only interested in their money - he truly is fake and an architect of rip off britain. The delivery driver was drunk when he delivered our product, and chose to leave it outside of our house.

Do not buy from this company! I wish I had read the reviews about this company before I spent over 4 grand with them. I ordered a 3 seater and 4 seater sofa from them in early January,and was told that the delivery would be 9-11 weeks. 11 weeks came and I did not hear a word from them. I called the store multiple times and no one answered. I left message but no one returned my call. I went on their website to track the deliver and saw that they updated it with an expected delivery date which would have been before easter, so I got rid of my old sofas to make space for the delivery. The week past and I still didn't hear a word from them about the delivery. Again, I called the store no one took my call. I went online to try to make a complaint and that's when they sent an email apologising and using the war in Ukraine as an excuse (shameful!). I was then given a second expected delivery date and again they fail to deliver or communicate. After I made a second complaint that's when I got a call to say that they have the furniture in the warehouse, but that's not even the end of it. To date 17th May, I still have not received the furniture yet. They keep lying about the delivery and letting me waste time by making adjustment to my schedules to get this delivery which still haven't happen yet. I think all these customers should come together and make a law suit. It's ridiculous.

Absolutely shambles, 6 months to sort issues with purchases. We were left with boxes of wardrobes in bedroom for 2 months while they constantly lied about the time it would take to get the missing parts. Lied about refund. Do not waste your money, worst experience we have ever had with any company. After 6 months and staggering amount of calls, as they are incapable of any other way of communicating, we got £79 refund on £8000 worth of purchases. Hideous company to deal with.

Hi. I have a Nicoletti sofa bed which is not quite a month old but looks much older now with the pooling leather. I have been through the 'technician' nonsense. He was actually a nice man and felt much like I do about FV and Nicoletti. What makes me angry is that how can all the customers be wrong but FV is right? I have seen a lot of customers on here and on reviews.io who are very unhappy about these dreadful leather sofas. Something that I find pretty sinister is that if you look for any reviews for Nicoletti furniture, you find that, like FV, there are no reviews on the furniture sites that sell Nicoletti. Ditto on Nicoletti's own site...no cusromer reviews are allowed. If you look on FV Facebook page, reviews public posts are no longer permitted. Not surprisingly really, as, before they were disabled, the posts about customer service were terrible. This really doesn't help the customer make an informed choice before buying. Also, I sat on the sofa they have on display a few times and for long periods and there was no sign of pooling at all. I just posted this on a FB complaints page and thought I'd post it here too.

Shocking customer service. Three weeks after delivering damaged table and chairs, customer service management still haven’t taken full responsibility for resolving situation. Furniture Village policy means you can’t speak to a manager or, and it’s quite possible, you can but they won’t take the call for fear of having to actually fulfil the responsibilities they’re paid for. If you do chose to make a purchase via Furniture Village, make sure you pay at least in part by credit card as you may need to seek redress via Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act

Great delivery guys. Sadly thats where the positive experience ended!! After a few months of very little use of my nearly £2k reclining sofa, I reported clunking noises, resulting in a manufacturers faulty mechanism, and a sliding feeling which is due to the padding, or lack of it. FOUR months later, numerous calls, unreturned callbacks, numerous ignored emails, the new mechanism has been fitted, but the seat padding was not rectified . I declined the repair with the blue foam, apparently how soft the seat had gone was not excessive, so the technician reported I lied about how often I sat on the sofa, and stated that I am only after a new sofa!!! HOW DISGRACEFUL!!! How dare he judge me like that! I am appalled at this!! I just want to sit comfortably with a bit of support!! Once they have your money, the so called After-care team do not care, and certainly are not interested in resolving issues. I have been fobbed off. Complete waste of my money to a company with NO care or concern.
