“Ordered sofa etc and 2 extra cushions. All arrived ahead of schedule and were lovely EXCEPT the extra cushions were the WRONG MATERIAL. Attempted to get these replaced which I was told would be done. Now I have a beyond frustrating problem. Store has the cushions and I am constantly ringing to ask when they will deliver - no joy. Head Office say ring back …… whenever ……….. no joy. Complaint to Manage elicits an email reply saying store will contact me re delivery. Next day at 0827 I get a phone call from HO asking me to ring to arrange delivery. I ring the number, open from 8am to 8pm, at 0833 and 0845 to be told line opening times at 8am to 8pm and to ring back when open and call disconnects. Emailed Manager and email, sent the previous day, bounces back. Called her number and had to leave a message. What is going on is poor communication and I have given up hope of ever getting the cushions or my money back which was £100. Good furniture, abysmal communication. Why does the customer have to go all this running about? Why does the call centre ring at 0827 requesting I call back to arrange a delivery and at 0833 and 0845 it says it is closed? I have a job of work I must go to and a life with sufficient problems to sort out THIS ONE IS ONE WHICH SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. Frustrated and angry.”

“We have recently ordered two sofas from our Preston branch. This is the second time I've used SCS my last sofa is now fifteen years old and we fancied a change. Becky the lady who served us was lovely and came over and helped us with everything we needed, she wasn't pushy and didn't make us feel like we had to buy. A nice friendly store with some lovely good quality sofas.”

“Got a corner sofa and dining table form scs.. the sofa instantly collapsed in the corner and you go straight though to the timber frame underneath.. we had the “repair man”(if you can call him that!) come round just to say, and I quote.. “they all go like that.. I’ll pull the material tighter and then it’ll be ok for a bit”.. whatever he did, did nothing what so ever so now I’m life with a £2000 bill and a 2nd rate, rubbish sofa... the table came in a water damaged box that was falling to bits.. once opened we found that the legs had chunks missing out of them that where crudely coloured in with black marker pen.. we complained just to be told that I probably did it myself so they won’t be doing anything about it.... trust me when I say this... AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COST..”

“I bought lovely looking 3 piece suite, what a pity the quality was very poor. The sofa arms were solid where as the chair arms weren’t, almost put my elbow through one of them having had the suite for 3 months. They blamed me for it even though an their upholsterer put it down to a collapsed card. That’s right, CARD, as in cardboard! No in store customer service, just given a telephone number. Once they’ve got your cash they’re not interested! Absolutely disgusted!”

“My 86 year old blind Mum has been left for 13 weeks without a sofa, she paid cash and after promises of delivery and being told lie after lie we still dont have the sofa shes paid for. The store doesn't give a damn. Staff at Mansfield branch are so rude. Contacted Head office at least a dozen times. I have never been so disgusted with a retail store and company in my life. Advice is to go elsewhere to buy your furniture not SCS. dont waste your time , energy and money.”

“I would give zero stars if I could. ScS Stockport was terrible, and the manager Richard needs to go on some customer service training his attitude was disgusting. I don’t know who he thinks he is!! We told SCS we were moving into a new built property and they told us Vinyl flooring is fine. The day there fitters arrived they refused to fit it saying it’s not able to go down in a new build for a year or we would get bubbling. They wouldn’t fit it even if we didn’t care about it not being prefect. Then rang SCS Stockport to explain to be told I could return the vinyl and get a refund less 25%. I obviously refused to pay the 25% and it wasn’t the cost it was the principle. Then to be called stupid my the manager and given verbal abuse was just not acceptable! No wonder the car parks always empty! Anyway complaint to head office submitted with recording of the call! It’s a shame isn’t it”

“We should have cancelled the order. Do not use the Slough store as you can never get hold of them, even the head office have trouble. Took ages to arrange for the surveyor to come. I’m now trying to pay the balance & arrange for the carpet to be fitted. They don’t seem to have the same quote as I have it looks like I will have to go into the shop . Awful store.”

“Absolutely awful company to deal with. Bought a cadrpet off them, turned up and thought they were doing stairs and landing, but was the lounge, couldn’t finish job as didn’t have long enough carpet strip, they said they would come the following morning ( big mistake paying them first, needless they didn’t turn up. I was told they had been fired so they would send surveyor who arrived said was a bad job and was to loose, we will send another carpet fitter on such a date, never turned up after many visits to store at middlebrook Bolton they promised another fitter would come the following week, never phoned never turned up. That was April and is now October and still unfinished job, looks a mess.”

“My review is mainly based on the two men, Simon the driver and Kenny the delivery man, who delivered a very heavy 3 seater motorized sofa and motorized chair. From start to finish they were very efficient and professional. Making sure they took off their shoes when repeatedly having to go back and forth to the van, even after I thought I had enough dust sheets down. Without wanting to sound too gushing, I found them very helpful and did not leave until we were satisfied. Extremely appreciative of the whole operation. So if you live in the Eastbourne area and you get these two men, who obviously get on well together, you will not be disappointed.”

“Where do I start? They got my name wrong on the information sheet, they then refused to deliver my sofas which we waited almost 4 months for, despite being in the next village (and travelling from up north) due to an in-house error). They didn't have my house number, only the road and because we have them on finance, the driver was "not allowed" to deliver them! We had tipped our old one the night before. We then had to wait another 9 days for them to be delivered. Told we would get out delivery cost back, only after I got angry with them and then told them it wasn't enough so got another £40 out of them (£99 in total). We had to take another day off work due to their incompetence. The customer service I received over the telephone from the Cambridge store was diabolical, and then being told that the authorisation to give me my £99 refund was put on the system on the 16th September, I was not given it till the end of the month after I kept pestering and getting told "someone will call you back"....... you will not be surprised to hear they never did!!!!! I will NEVER recommend buying from this company ever again and once our finance is paid (which is will be quicker than the 3 years we have it for), we won't ever have anything to do with them again or step foot in one of their shops! Do your research folks....I wish we had!”

“This company is an absolute joke. Were spose to come and fit my carpet and didn't turn up. Offered an £80 off my carpet which is an insult considering I waited 3 weeks for it to be done and then said it would take a further 3 weeks for it to come again. The staff in ipswich branch were rude and arrogant. Never ever again would use this company. Wish I read the reviews before even stepping foot in this shop”

“I cannot give 0 star otherwise this was 0 star.We had a defect with our sofa and after months of emails they have not replied or if they did reply they kept asking the same questions. I paid a lot for this set. I am absolutely disgusted with this company. Anyone have any ideas what steps I should take next?”

“Never ever buy a sofa from SCS! We have had the worst experience! First of all, all of their staff members are rude! Their delivery drivers are useless! Delivered half the couch into the living room and the other half to the garage!! We then got it together to find a rip in one of the cushions! Phoned about this and 2 MONTHS later we are still waiting for this cushion to be replaced! My emails have been ignored for over a month now i phoned to be told ' the cushions on back order what do you expect? Your welcome goodbye' and hung up on! Bet if we didnt pay for it or missed a payment theyd be quick enough to get in touch!!! Ridiculous!”
