“My mother ordered a swivel chair through clearance, paid and was told it would be delivered in a few weeks time. A week before delivery, she was called to confirm the date of delivery, then on the delivery day was called to say her product "could not be located". When speaking to customer service, she was refused a new version of the same chair (that was apparently in stock) and told none of the clearance versions were available, despite them still being on the website. She was then told that the website was not reliable as it wasn't updated as quickly as their systems, so an item that was out of stock could still be shown as available and purchased through the website. This has left her with nothing to sit on but the floor, having removed her old sofa to make room for the new chair. Absolutely disgusted in Sofology”

“Like some of the previous reviews my sofa started sagging after 24 hours, and yet the sales person in the paisley reassured me that the leather sofa he recommended would not do this, the technician they sent out said that is the style of the suite, why would anyone buy something that looks like its been sat on for years, and they are refusing to take it back unless I pay a percentage of the cost of the suite, but I am taking this further, do not buy from here.”

“If I could leave a minus star score I would. Ordered a 2k sofa last November - delivery date to be this March. two weeks or so before delivery date they emailed to say oh sorry we didn't actually put the order in. Emails out to the Priority customer link bounced back(strangely received a response post my tc with 'customer service'). When I spoke to a worker they were rude and offhand - who advised that the emails probably bounced back because I had poor wifi (what?) appears that they are employing petulant children to manage customer service- I suppose because they just read a script therefore not necessary to have any service skills whatsoever. Offered a discount, which I accepted and they gave me a new delivery date of early May. Again, received an email saying nocando as the supplier cant source the fabric (what?!) and that they would email me when they could and I could go to a link to book in my own delivery date post June. No actual confirmation of timings or that the product could actually be made. Emails went unanswered, bar one which stated that they couldn't respond to emails due to a problematic email system. No response whatsoever from my calls to the 'priority' telephone number supplied (jokes on me I guess). Eventually, once I raised a complaint via Paypal for a refund this was actioned. Unbelievably poor service - good luck with staying in business. 100% SHAMBLES of a company. Unless you have masochistic tendencies then I would strongly advise that you steer clear of these cowboys.”

“I took delivery of a leather 3 seater and 2 seater only 4 weeks ago .... the leather on the 3 seater was creased on delivery and started to sag almost straight away. The “technician” has been today and I’m told his report says there is nothing wrong with the sofa !!!! It’s a mess !!! Customer service was not helpful at all, despite the technician agreeing with me that the sofa leather has sagged he did not write this in his report so I’m told that as he is the expert I have no recourse. The sofas are being collected and I will have to pay forgo % charge ... my advice. Think very carefully before you but from sofology ... I have also asked for a copy of the technician report..... not seen that as yet !”

“Sofa not even 3mths old and cushions are flat, only my husband and myself in the house. Can’t get through on the phone, terrible service so I’ll have no option but to go back to the shop to complain. Total waste of my money... not a happy customer”

“I rarely write a view but have to this time. I have never experienced such shockingly terrible customer service! Ordered a £4k sofa in January, delivered scheduled for 6th April - stayed in all day with no delivery. It is now 22nd April, I have called them and was told this would be looked into - not heard back, I have emailed - not heard back, I tweeted - not heard back and live chat is about as handy as a chocolate teapot! Really really wish I had NEVER ordered from this company! WHERE is my sofa????????”

“Ive ordered a sofa in the January sales and was told it would be available by March. Its now nearing the end of April and still no sofa! trying to get through to customer services is an absolute joke no-one ever replies to their web chats despite them advertising they will reply within a few minutes. Ive tried contacting them by post, email and web chat no reply from any. Tried ringing the branch where I ordered it from (Birstall) but you cannot speak direct to branch it just directs you to the website. Its Ok Sofology we'll just keep sitting on the floor!”

“Just awful customer service. We ordered 2 sofas in December. Still waiting for them. You can't get through to customer service unless you wait over an hour. They don't answer on line chat or emails. They told us they would deliver the sofas 3 times now and we waited in over 5 hours and nothing. no communication to say not being delivered. My Sofology web page is awful. Cant get what you need and they keep changing delivery dates and not informing you. Would NOT recommend this company.”

“We have had a delivery rescheduled multiple times, each time involves us having to call and be on hold for between 40 minutes and 1hr and a half. Rescheduled again today. 3 hours on hold so far to try to get a resolution/ refund - AVOID THIS COMPANY”

“After seeing the same sofa online for a fraction of the price and reading many bad customer after care reviews we are trying to cancel our order within the 7 day cooling off period. We’re having no luck, even went in to store and was told to wait for a call cancellation has been processed. We called ourselves, was on hold for 2+ hours to be told our order has not been cancelled.”

“New sofa delivered 4 days ago within 1 MIN of the drivers leaving my property I had noticed that all the filling was split inside the cushions at the back of the brand new sofa absolutely disgusting rang the delivery driver back they said they will pass it on to the manager and I would be called as soon as they got back nothing I rang them and spent an hour on the phone only to be cut off at the point of hello my sofa is faulty I have emailed them on numerous occasions I have live chat them on numerous occasions and not one person has had the damn right decency to get back to me in my opinion they're not fit to trade avoid this company at all costs I've waited 14 weeks for this sofa and it's already looking like 14 years old please people don't put your money in this company read reviews”

“Truly dreadful company from a quality perspective & a customer service perspective. I purchased 2 sofas last year and they were delivered at the end of February 2020, just before lockdown so there has been nobody using either of the sofas apart from my (standard size) husband and I. The cushions are plumped and turned weekly, so I contacted them in November (less than 9 months after I received them) to say the sofas looked dreadful as he cushions were all flat and just looked terrible - definitely not over £1500 worth. After looking at the pictures they thought the sofas were damaged they looked so bad (it has since been confirmed they are not damaged) and they agreed to send out a technician who said these sofas needed constant plumping which I should have been told about in store. He agreed that from looking at our house he could see we looked after our things. I definitely wasn’t told about the constant rotating and plumping (they upsold me sofa glides which I had to return on the direction of the delivery men as they can’t be used on wooden floors, which I definitely told the sales person about, so obviously she had no interest in what I needed, she just wanted a sale at any cost). I then found out that, to escalate this to the FHIO it has to be reported within 6 months! I was sold a sofa with a 20 year warranty but as I waited 8 1/2 months, this wasn’t covered. And as it is manufactured to look this dreadful, they are not at fault. I then received an offer from their media complaints department offering to refill the cushions although with the same materials, as there WAS a manufacturing defect. This offer was made at the end of January (still less than a year after I received the sofas), and on 10th February I agreed to this as there seemed to be no other option. My initial complaint was closed after the offer was made, and I wrote and said I wasn’t happy with that as they had agreed there was a defect and had offered to refill the cushions and now nobody was answering me, and the auto reply to that email told me I would hear back from them, usually with 24 hours. After 10 days I emailed their CEO. She didn’t bother replying to my email after I let her know nobody would reply to my other emails, but she did get someone to finally contact me to say they’ll order new interiors for the cushions. So just another 10 weeks to wait for this, although they’re apparently the same as the current rubbish ones so not sure what’ll be achieved by this. And the marketing department asking me to contact them so they can not resolve this just adds insult to injury frankly. I cannot state enough how much you should stay away from this company, they are the most awful company i have ever used. There does seem to be lots of recent negative reviews showing just how many people are having dreadful issues with this company.”

“Waited for a week to get a response when enquirying about my sofa. Still no decent response, just an automated message. Impossible to speak to anyone. Rubbish customer service.”

“If I would of read the reviews I would not of touched these with a barge pole. Customer services are like robots. Our recliner has gone flat and he told me that I should of gone on U Tube to see how to maintain it, in other words I have not looked after it properly WTH.”

“Worst company ever! We had a sofa delivery over a year ago. Last February we called aboit faults on the seats. After several calls to chase this up (over a year now) we have been told that there was an error and seats and covers had not been ordered. They say this after saying it has been lost in transit. Will keep calling as not giving into them do bing me off. Shocking”

“I bought a sofa from their clearance range on line. However it never arrived on the day it was due I was never contacted that they were not going to deliver due to the poor state the sofa was in I was told it should never of been sold to me. They offered me a credit note or full refund. So I decided to do the credit note. Due to sofa not arriving they offered me a loan sofa until my new sofa arrived once I’d been in store to choose one Guess what that did not arrive either the day stated and guess what they never contacted me either. Customer service is not working and they blame it on COVID Sofology allow dogs in their stores and apparently the sofa I was charged for was not fit for purpose due to dog et If you want to waste your time be fed a load of lies go to sofology If you want to good service go anywhere else”

“Bought 3 Emperor sofas August 2019. Currently stuck with sofas that are not fit for the purpose of actually sitting on them as the cushions have no "rebound" meaning you have to plump them every single day - a total of 8 very large and awkward cushions. Customer service and "engineer" say there is nothing wrong with them. Please avoid this company as their customer service are the worst - as apparently so are their sofas!”
