“I bought a CD player. When it broke, Hughes have tried to avoid responsibility. They are not to be trusted. They've currently had it for more than a month with no sign of returning it. A very poor, second rate organisation.”

“I purchased a Panasonic combo microwave from the Martlesham store on 17 May. I was keen to get a good product and the Panasonic was recommended by the salesman. On 18 July it stopped working and I contacted the Martlesham store who said I could either return it to the store or take it directly to the service centre, where they would send it. I took it to the service centre that day. I was informed on 20 July that the appliance was ready to collect and had undergone a manufacturer approved modification. I am disappointed that for an appliance barely two months old with a fault not related to misuse, it was not replaced with a bjrand new one or I was not credited the cost against a different model not prone to this potential problem. I am also disappointed that the onus has been on me to return and collect the goods along with taking responsibility for any damage incurred during this process. There would need to be a very convincing reason to persuade me to shop at Hughes in the future.”

“Ordered a TV from them and was not there to take delivery. Arrived back off holiday to find TV had scratch on screen and was refused a replacement How can any company take £900 of your hard earned money, send you damaged goods and refuse to replace them Taking this matter up with my lawyer”

“I bought TV from this company, the day of before the delivery I received a pre delivery notification text message then I noticed they putted through incorrect delivery address to the Arrow XL (courier company) and called their customer service immediately to ask them get address corrected, one of their staff not really care what you saying end up next day I wasted my day out of work because they didn't get my delivery address corrected. AVOID this company otherwise just waste your time and money.”

“Avoid,avoid! Ordered a TV with a Sony 5 year warranty, except that when the order was placed on line I received an invoice with only one year guarantee Numerous calls and emails failed to get their customer services staff to understand there was a problem and they insisted I could return the TV to them at my expense. Not quite what I wanted to do! Very poor after sales service and a very basic misunderstanding of what they were trying to sell.Staff stubborn and intransigent.”

“Ordered a vacuum cleaner, which was simple and easy to do on the website plus a great price. It was delivered exactly on time and the couriers kept me updated with at every stage of the delivery process. Could not have worked out better, would certainly use them again.”

“I ordered a TV from the website. The layout was ok and the booking process was smooth. However, they didn't arrive on the day I selected, although they claimed they tried to contact me. I called them back to find out the situation, only to find out that the order was cancelled because of "security reason" and they don't provide any further explanation. I have been internet shopping for years. First time to hear this. Super weird.”

“Hughes at North Walsham managed by Justin is second to none for service we have spent a considerable amount this year nothing has been to much trouble they deliver on all levels, quality of products offered, price points but most importantly customer service they deserve real recognition for all that they offer and if Justin is not there or busy with another customer be assured you will still get the best avoid the big stores go local !!”

“Ordered a heater which arrived in a damaged box after the driver working for their mickey mouse courier firm gave me the wrong one. On opening the box the inside packaging had obviously been previously removed and just shoved back in and the heater was badly damaged. At first contact Hughes Direct seemed to take the matter seriously but since then no contact at all and their promise to arrange collection turned out to be lies. Don´t use this company, look around the internet to see plenty of stories like mine. Originally written By Bob Groves - Unbeatable.co.uk”

“I wish I had read other reviews online before purchasing. The after-sales care was dreadful. They were rude and dismissive and the item I ordered was not up to scratch and their website did not properly describe the item. Awful experience and I am now left out of pocket as they would not acknowledge liability and were intimidating and service was more than unsatisfactory. Steer clear.
