“Think this place is daylight robbery I used this for a small TV I have had the TV years with the assumption I was renting to buy but no its just rental ended up in hospital and when I did get home got a million threatening letters saying I was going to County Court n bailiff fees to pay for an outstanding debt of £16... not once did anyone try ringing me !”

“Very poor service”

“Confirmed a date when I would receive a replacement laptop but this wasn’t kept, the first I knew about it was thanks to the courier company messages, for 5 days Hughes Rental didn’t bother to update me whether calling or emailing, sure we can all make mistakes and can be the new person, but how difficult would it have been to advise, instead of courier blaming who like I say were the only ones to honest inform - ((I needed an example of poor service and you sure can tell a lot with Hughes Rental after service))”

“Why, when I think, l I have paid for a uninstall, delivery and install for a washer, I find out the day before that you do not do uninstalls? Why on earth deliveries start at 7am Why they turned up at 6:45 am? I had not even unplugged the devices yet and who on earth gets a deliver at 6:45 am? They complained that they might not have the tools to install the washer dryer, even though I paid for it They complained that The washing machine install might take too long and be too hard Why they only have 10 mins to unpack and deliver 2 large items and that includes the washing machine install Why, instead of trying to find a way to deliver the items into the house, they spent more time complaining that it would be hard to do Why, they don't unbox the fridge freezer when all items are supposed to be unwrapped?That they both spoke at the same time (And complained at the same time), it was hard to keep track of who to answer? I now have a fridge freezer outside my house and an uninstalled washer dryer. I had to ask for this to ber left this was, as I was so upset and stressed that I just asked them to leave. Appalling!”

“Just had an LG Oled TV delivered to find out that Hughes had delivered me the wrong model TV, they have sent me last years model at £600 cheaper. When I asked when were they we going to correct this I was told that they can’t pick up of the mistake TV on the same day as the new TV due to the finance( which has been paid for as they wouldn’t have delivered it). So this means I have had to take three days off work for their mistake. This is the first and last time I use Hughes. I should have gone elsewhere. 1 star is too much. The process was quick and easy it’s was Customer service not making thing right that annoys me.”

“Very rude delivery drivers. They left our 85”inches TV out. They haven’t came for delivery at scheduled time. They came early morning 6to 6:30 where we couldn’t even ask help to our neighbours. I bought this TV for my pregnant wife where she was so unhappy with the service. Atleast they should have help us to carry through the staircase. And delivery person have asked for 200 to do so. And unnecessary laughing and mocking customer. Which ruined our whole day. I have ordered this TV and particularly selected on 23rd day which is my wife birthday. These delivery people spoiled our day totally . Unhappy because of delivery people. If you can’t do the delivery properly then better don’t take this big TV order. They cut my call while speaking about this matter to customer service”

“Drivers parked over dropped curb outside sheltered accommodation Meant for wheelchair users, when brought to drivers attention got abusive, highway code section 45 Obviously doesn't give a hoot about disabled people and their carers nor the highway code.”

“I never heard of them but I found a good cashback offer on quidco for them. I placed a big order and raised a claim for the cashback as the transaction wasn't tracked on quidco. 3 months after, it turns out Hughes declined my cashback claim without providing a specific reason. Never again!”

This being highlighted in blue. I arrived at 12 noon to find it all locked up . My wife has just called you to find you totally unhelpful and has now got a refund . Her words were that you couldn't give a s%$#”

“Categories My Reviews My Settings Help LOG OUT Alternate Text Daniel GB For companies Your review counts! You reviewed Hughes Add photo Daniel 1 review 1 star: Bad Just now Good if you like your appliances broken and dented Absolutely appalling service. Purchased a dishwasher from their eBay store which arrived dented & cracked, received £50 back (they offered less at first) a week later it broke down so we got the manufacturer to come out to look at it. They reckon it had fallen over in transit which then flooded the anti flood switch. Tried to get a straight swap with hughes to avoid being without one for ages but not only did they point blank refuse this they arranged a courier to take it back from a refund without even checking the date was ok with me first! Thought I would give the company a go as not used them before but would certainly never use them again. Oh, and you can't even ring them to sort issues out unless you fancy running up a huge phone bill with their premium rate customer services number!!!”

“Basicly I ordered a TV online filled out the form and for finance,finance went through okay but the order didn't phoned them and they said they would sort it out, I had to contact them 3 times and every time they said they would sort it but never did so went with ebuyer such a smooth transaction purchased from them before and the same tv was £120 cheaper bargain!!”

“Machine delivered damaged, but could not be seen until unpacked. Hughes refuse to accept that and say I must have damaged the machine. Never known customer service to call someone a liar. Bunch of jokers. Stay well clear.”
