“This company's customer service is non existent. I have tried ringing, emails and live chat and had no response from anyone. I have completed a complaint through Resolver and will be looking for the furniture ombudsman, as now all I want is my deposit back!”

“Cushion collapsed after one weeks use. Apparently it's a design feature! Still waiting a year later for replacement. You can never contact them”

“Ordered in March on 12 weeks delivery, 13 weeks later and £6k paid up front no sofas. No contact. Can’t speak with anyone. Standard email replies. Estimated delivery now 21/08. Can’t believe the reviews now. Please can I speak to someone. So disappointed.”

“You delivered 2 different stitch (One dark grey stitching the other light Cream) Sofas and I am unable to to speak to some one about resolving their error. I have tried numerous phoncalls without success. I have sent pictures emails and tried the nonfunctional webchat. SOFOLOGY HAS IGNORED ME AT EVERY STAGE.”

“Absolutely impossible to get hold of anyone to amend a delivery date. Phone calls are always over an hour on hold Webchat tried twice and no response in over an hour both times Tried raising ticketed request twice - no response on either (one has been open now for 2 weeks Website is rubbish and online servicing is worse - a lesson in how not to do e-commerce Wont be using again and would not recommend to anyone”

“Firstly, let me start by saying the terrible user journey Sofology has laid out is not at fault of the pandemic, or stock issues due to the pandemic. My first order with this company was in 2018 for a 3 seater recliner which was faulty within a month, it was a paint to contact them and getting any clear sight of communication. Sofology sent an engineer out who said there was a bent bar underneath and he hammered into place... not offering a replacement of the part even though I asked. I let this slide, but have had the same fault but now it over the guarantee period. I then had a burn on the fabric which I bought extra cover insurance from Sofology. Again, a pain to get in touch with them, but worse, they fob you off telling you its a third party company that deals with repairs...and when in store they sell you this like its the best service ever. Fast Forward to the upholsterer that came... wait for it... he replaced the fabric and put back the recline buttons backward! so the front button retracted and the back button open the recliner... I checked whilst he was there, he said, "that's how they make it" I was laughing, I told him it wasn't that way before, and the other side is fine, you've put it on backward. I was told to contact Sofology for any problems and he left. As you can imaging this was a pain to contact Sofology, again they fobbed me of saying it a third party issue, after numerous calls, eventually an engineer came out, he told me it was just two wires that needing swapping and the previous engineer should've known. Absolute STRESS. I have reluctantly ordered a matching recliner in Feb with 4 months waiting for deliver and delays, and they turned up without the feet of the recliner and told me they had to take the sofa back. now its a waiting game again. Absolutely terrible company. The rebrand is going to be an absolute wast of money if they don't get their customer retention rate right!”

“Don’t put yourself through the stress. You won’t get your sofa. They claims it’s been misplaced. Very hard to get your money back actually impossible to get your money back. Just lucky I paid a big deposit on my credit card so I could get a lot of the money back that way. Still trying to contact the finance company to stop the payments. Awful company.”

“We ordered our sofa in December 2020 with prepayment of nearly 1000 GBP, the delivery time was estimated 20 weeks. The first delivery team came beginning of May and punched a big hole in my ceiling. They were just unprofessional beginners, not like stated on the homepage a professional team. It took over 3 weeks to even hear from them. Since then I have tried to get in contact with them several times but without success. That leaves me with no sofa, a lot of money already payed, a big hole in my ceiling and a none existing customer service. I am beyond angry and frustrated with Sofology and can only recommend to not buy anything from them. I can very well understand the bad score given here and all the frustration caused by the unprofessional behaviour of Sofology. Don't trust Trustpilot on this one, somehow the managed to get a good review, but this is mostly customers going into the shop. Once you have bought something the customer service is beyond bad.”

“More than anything else I am really sad for my two disabled parents. It was arranged that their old sofas be taken away as the new ones would be delivered the next day... no delivery, no phone call. As a busy teacher I'm on the phone for hours waiting... emails and messages answered mostly by bots. A loan sofa was agreed yesterday... simply did not turn up. I ordered a sofa from them that took 8 months to arrive and I had a loan sofa but put it down to supply chain and lockdown so wanted parents' sofas sooner so ordered from clearance. I spoke to two helpful people - one who was retiring in the day, who said there was a part missing and that's why there was no delivery and another who is about to go on oartenity leave. I'm saddened, angry and disappointed.”

“We shopped around quite a few couch companies but none compared to the quality of Sofology. We weren't jumped on the minute we walked on but there was always some available if needed. We took a long time asking questions and prices and left the shop to think about it without any fuss from staff. Obviously we went ahead with the purchase and we couldn't be any happier. The communication was spot on and the delivery faultless. From start to finish a great experience. We bought three couches (Majestic in steel). Perfect.”

“Fantastic service from Warrington store, Ordering was effortless once we had made our choice from the Galleria range. We were given a time scale of approx. 8 weeks and delivery was a couple of weeks after this which wasn’t a problem. Delivery was as promised and within the 4 hour time slot given. The guys were fantastic and did a great job getting the suite into our living room. The suite looks fabulous and now hoping that it will continue to look as good with daily use. Thank you sofology.”

“Great experience from start to finish, shop staff very helpful, sofa came sooner then originally estimated, delivery team were very good & new Mazizini Corner sofa exceeds our expectations. Also used the Clearabee removal service for our old 3 piece & they were very good also. I had read a lot of bad reviews beforehand and so was a bit apprehensive of using Sofology but i am very happy that we did as are my brother & sister in law who also had a positive experience with them.”

“Got my 4 hour delivery slot and even got a call from driver to say I was the next delivery. I then got a phone call from driver 10 mins later to say he didn't have my sofa. Tried to go to store to get zero help from the manager who just looked at me with a blank face and said they can't help they are just a showroom. I then spent all day trying to get through to customer services, 4 hours in total, to be told they couldn't do anything either and someone would ring me tomorrow. I highly doubt anyone will as someone was supposed to ring me yesterday to cancel my delivery. Instead they let me believe it was coming and take a days holiday!”

“RIGHT EVERYONE, I THINK IT IS VERY PLAIN TO SEE THAT SOFOLOGY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS. I THEREFORE URGE YOU ALL TO CONTACT WATCHDOG OR SIMILAR. THESE CROOKS NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THEY ARE IN EFFECT STEALING OUR HARD EARNED MONEY. THERE ARE ALSO FACEBOOK GROUPS TO HELP YOU THROUGH THIS PROCESS”

“Absolutely shocking customer service. No delivery of sofa as promised. Almost 3 hours on hold in a queue. No one can give me answers. The CEO SALLY HEPSON will not even give customers the courtesy of a reply. I will be going to store for a full refund and if I didn't get it any potential customers will be warned of this companys failings. #Sofology Sofology WebTeam”

“The worst Customer Service I have ever experienced. I have had an ongoing dispute with Sofology since January, 2021. My wife is disabled, and I am now in my 70’s and disinclined to move heavy furniture around any more than I need to. When completing our order, the salesman mentioned that, at extra cost, we could have “Sofaglides” fitted. We were not shown examples, but were given to understand that “Sofaglides” represented a method by which “castors” retracted into the base of the furniture when someone sat down, but were spring-loaded to reappear and facilitate easy moving of the furniture. This was a new concept to my wife, my 20 year old son and myself, and all of us gained the same impression and understanding. Somewhat naively, as it turns out, we felt that this was entirely in keeping with the innovative technology we had seen throughout the store. Of course there are many versions of the truth, depending on one’s perspective, but it seems remarkable to me that three people (my wife, my son and myself) should all invent a technological improvement to Sofology’s furniture, of which we could have had no prior knowledge. After twelve weeks, without furniture, the sofa bed and chairs arrived. I was somewhat nonplussed to witness self-adhesive discs of nylon being stuck on the feet of the units. I raised the point with the delivery driver, but he assured me that these discs were, indeed, the “Sofaglides” for which we had been charged £75.00. Subsequent investigation revealed that these “Sofaglides” are readily available, online, for, at most, 50p each, and are clearly unfit for purpose. The first time the furniture is moved, they come off! Had we been shown, in the shop, what we were getting, we would have saved our money! We also paid £39.00 for a fabric care kit. Despite requests, we are still waiting for this. Sofology Customer Services arbitrarily closed our complaint as "resolved". It is anything but! I have written to customer services and to the Chief Executive, Ms Sally Hopson, without receiving the curtesy of a reply or even an acknowledgement. If you must deal with this company, record everything that their salesman tells you, and certainly do not be conned into paying their exorbitant price for”Sofaglides”.”

“Trustpilot reviews Categories Blog My Reviews My Settings Help LOG OUT Mark T GB For companies Review of Sofology Mark T 3 reviews 1 star: Bad 26 minutes ago They ask for a review after ordering so… They ask for a review after ordering so most reviews are positive. Reality is after paying that's were customer service ends. Webchat claims 3 mins response time but reality they don't bother responding at all. If you call you are in a queue of 50 people and it will take 2 hours 20 mins to get your turn to speak. When you do finally get through and inquire about your order you are asked to hold while they check. After 25mins of holding again you get put to the back of the original queue so 2 hours 45min then you have to start the whole process again. Absolutely disgraceful. Sofa was expected to be delivered 5/6/21 but then changed to 7/6/21 but I suspect it has not even left China. All I wanted was an update I know the expected delivery is meaningless but why change it to 2 days later if its not even been built?”

“Don't use Sofology...you'll regret it. We bought a sofa in April, and the delivery was initially planned for the beginning of May. One month later (June) and still nothing. Their customer service is the worst I have seen (all industries included). It's so difficult to contact them (you have to wait two hours over the phone) and at the end they'll tell you they will contact you but nothing. Just run away when you see Sofology.”
