“Purchased a Sofa, Delivery Guys couldn't get it in my Livingroom despite them managing to get it in my House and now charging an absolute fortune for me to replace and even more if I want my money back and I wasn't told this at time of purchase instore! Ibwas told they would send it back to depot to modify which then I had to call days later(yet again, they never kept up communication) to say they couldn't do this anymore. This was my Mum's money she gave me before she died last yr and I am sat with nothing and now I have to pay to exchange or money back. I told instore I was on the spectrum too and that they need to tell me what I need to know about the purchase. They didn't tell me about charges nor told me the Sofa dosn't break down, (I didn't know that) but they told customer service they did, I have a witness too as I need someone with me incase I don't undeestand what is bei g said”

“The worst experience I have received from a company. During delivery of my sofa the delivery men damaged my property and also the sofa. Sofa returned to warehouse. I have spent hours on the phone trying to resolve issues, unable to speak to anyone in complaint department as I was told they don't speak to customers. I've now asked for a refund as the company is a disgrace and I would not want to spend a penny in their shops.”

“Terrible useless delivery service and customer service. If you buy a sofa off these lot make sure you have plenty of days of work to account for numerous cancelled deliveries. Absolute saga wouldn’t buy anything off them again. Delivery drivers and depot operatives are absolute wage thieves.”

“ality £3500 sofa. Just I year on and Moreno sofa already sagging. Told we are not sitting properly on It and we could pay to get new inserts etc. a joke. Will be pushing all the way and twitter/Facebook/all social media platforms I will be advising not to buy from this company. The customer service person was a disgrace and just said it’s your fault the seat sagging. a joke. Who is the head of customer service - they should sort this out. The service girl carol said she was closing complaint and email said resolved. How can it be resolved if customer issue has not been dealt with. Asked to escalate and have manager call and she just closes complaint saying they will just say the same. Told us to go to ombudsman.”

“My laurence sofa has had issues with 1 part of the seating the leather flaking I have e the insurance through sofology whi refuse to take liability and sofology saying my warranty is out and I'd need to pay for someone to come look at it for a £3000 sofa ot 2 years old is ridiculous it's hay even used which is more frustrating.I am extremely disappointed in the after care and customer service and the quality of the sofa it's absolutely shocking especially for the amount I paid.”

“We ordered a sofa from the Doncaster store I think in 2019 and the sales team were great (of course as they always are) the delivery team we’re great and fitted it quickly and professionally but unfortunately only a short months after sitting on it it started to go extremely flat despite us plumping it’s every night before bed. Now it is completely flat and we are still paying for it!! I contacted the company and they were absolutely atrocious. Kept sending emails saying this case is now closed yet I hadn’t spoken to anyone. When I finally did get in touch with someone they told me to pay to replace the parts… so basically the whole sofa then? DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!”

“Please don't buy from this company. It's an absolute shambles and i should have listened to others before i purchased furniture from them! I ordered the midsummer sofa and footstool last May and was told it would take 13 weeks. This time then got delayed 4 times and i didn't receive it until December. Every time i called customer services i waited 3 hours and some to be able to speak to someone! Once you get to the 3 hour point on hold, the phone then cuts you off and you have start all over again. My delivery was FINALLY booked in and the delivery guys were nice enough although they did chip my wooden floor. The sofa was exactly what i ordered, the footstool however was made in completely the wrong colour and material so not only have i waited 7 months for it, it was wrong! They left the footstool there and told me to contact customer services and arrange for it to be collected and have the right one delivered. Another few hours sitting on hold to get through to them, they advised me that they would come and collect it in a couple of days. i took a day off from work when the collection was booked and NOBODY turned up! They then apologised and booked in another collection for which i had to take ANOTHER day off from work! They collected the footstool and customer services advised me that if i wanted the correct one, i would have to wait another 7 months. i told them i wanted a refund instead. They said that because i paid a big deposit, they would be able to refund the full £500 into my bank so that i could go and buy another footstool. This again, didn't happen as they took it off my finance. They are an APPALLING company! It went wrong through every step of the way and you couldn't pay me enough to deal with them again! AVOID!”

“Corporate bullying. Misleading. Mis-selling of products and poor sales practices. My parents ordered a sofa "made to order" and paid in full without finance. Their delivery was scheduled for the 16th February 2022, but failed to arrive. No notifications/emails/updates were made to let them know why it did not arrive as per scheduled, which already goes against their own "Delays and Prolonged Delays" section on their terms and conditions. My parents continually tried to contact via phone to see what was happening and shortly realised the best option was to cancel the order as it was early March (almost 3 weeks later) and still no sofa. Now my mother tried to cancel this order over the phone and was told a 30% charge would be applied = £1046. This obviously would put anybody off canceling their order. However here are some things to consider: 1. The contract says the 30% charge is applied for cancelling if you cancel within 14 days of a scheduled delivery. 2. This clause in the contract was never stipulated nor mentioned when my parents purchased the sofa. 3. The contract also says that any delays will be notified to the customer. My parents made this purchase in-store, and was not given the chance to read any terms and conditions. This is poor sales practice and complete mis-selling of products, as the 30% charge acts as an insurance for Sofology, and therefore should always be made aware to customers. *As the scheduled delivery was for 16th February, if my parents were to cancel on or after the 2nd February (within 14 days) then the 30% charge applies, accordingly. HOWEVER, it is now March, and Sofology has completely failed to deliver, it has been 14 days AFTER scheduled delivery with no updates, no notifications, and no reason. Additionally, according to their delays terms, a £50 reduction is due. In light of this, my parents should be given a complete refund, and not bullied into accepting another delivery date, to be again, disappointed. IF it does not arrive by this Thursday, you can expect further complaints, and another request for a refund.”

“Sofa seats lose padding quite quickly. Considering the high cost of the leather sofas they should use higher quality materials that last longer!”

“I’ve just spent an afternoon replacing the foam in a Sofology linea sofa. This involved taking it apart with a socket set. The foam that was in it was cheap rubbish. It cost £120 for 2 pieces of quality foam. The technician who inspected mine said it was top quality leather but the cheapest foam so after 2 years use I had to replace the foam with decent stuff. Sofology and the furniture ombudsman said it was “wear n tear “ so £1500 sofa only lasts 2 years. Absolute chancers never buy from Sofology!”

“Avoid. Completely useless. Lies. ‘Sofa will be delivered 8:15 to 12:15.’ No delivery. ‘Depot say it’s definitely out for delivery today. They will call driver and call you’. No call. No sofa. Hopeless.”

“Please please please buy somewhere else! 7 weeks after delivering my sofa with a missing piece, and several attempts by me to resolve it, they just ignore you. Once they have your money they do not care. Now just trying to get a refund and the sofa returned. Every time I call there is no record of the previous call. Worst customer service I’ve ever received. Avoid like the plague. Would leave no stars if I could.”

“We bought a couch, we were told delivery was 3 weeks, on week 5 we phoned and asked about our delivery we got told it was lost!!! Customer services are absolutely horrendous. One lady was laughing at my wife on the phone!! I have to say this must be the worst run company in the uk. 100% will never enter any Sofology shop in my life. Hopefully when you read this you take heed.”

“So, we order a sofa & chair & no problem with lead time as we were in no rush. Around 19weeks later we get the call that our order is ready for delivery & we book a slot. Great stuff, one day prior to our booked date we get an email & text advising our time slot. Brilliant, would be one of the first deliveries so book a day off & we get everything prepared. Old suite out & access all ready. Delivery arrives within the time slot, great.... NOT!!! Only the chair arrived, no sofa on the van. ABSOLUTELY STEAMING!!!!”
