People, PLEASE, NEVER-EVER-EVER USE THIS COMPANY!
THEY CAN'T DO THEIR JOB!
I've seen some bad service in my time, but Appliances Direct takes the cake. The most unprofessional, disorganized, hectic, idiotic mess imaginable. All they can do is just to promise and apologize, but the job will never be done.
The delivery and the installation of a new washing machine and the collection of an old one couldn't be more complicated.
At first they brought a damaged machine and had to take it away. On the second attempt they have delivered the machine, but forgot to install it and to do a scrap collection. These services had been somehow lost during the re-booking. So eventually the installation and the scrap collection had to be rescheduled to another day.
And each time it means that you have to stay at home all day waiting for them, and they can't arrange a convenient booking slot. And all this time you have to live without a washing machine, just hoarding dirty clothes.
Eventually, the installation and the scrap collection have been scheduled for Saturday and they agreed to do it in the morning.
After so much time on the phone with their customer service team who ensured me that now everything would be done perfectly I also believed that now all would be finally fixed. But no! The guys really came in the morning to collect the old washing machine, but the note about the installation somehow was lost again.
Really? Seriously? It takes 3 weeks and 4 attempts to do the job which is their main expertise? I’m really curious how do they manage to survive on the market with service like this?
I had another chat with them on the phone, they were apologizing and promising that they would get someone to fix everything on the same day by 1pm. Clearly that didn’t happen. Otherwise they promised to reschedule another visit for installation on Tuesday. So I had to wait for another 3 days and cancel my plans to sit at home for another day.
A day before I was ensured via phone that everything is scheduled and will take place on Tuesday and eventually they just didn't turn up and didn't call.
Additionally, when I called the office one of their team members purposefully lied to me, asking to call at 6pm and knowing that the office closes at 5. A brilliant and inventive example of work with an unhappy customer. Well done!
And I'm sure when I call tomorrow again they will be apologizing on the phone instead of just doing the bloody job.
I’m really curious, how did all this happen and keeps happening? Am I special or is that their usual routine? Seriously, is it just one person who keeps screwing everything up, or is that the whole team? Or maybe it's deliberate? Is that possible that a company keeps screwing up one order over and over again by accident? I have a feeling like I'm in a prank video. How much more unprofessional they can get?
Needless to say that my record of the most incredible uselessness is broken and with the work like this they can only loose customers and gain bad word of mouth.
