Terrible company with zero customer care. Avoid giving your hard earned money to these crooks.

Refuse to give refund as they "lost" an item. Service staff very helpful (although not overly knowledgeable). Returned a bed over 2 weeks ago and still no refund. I have shown them video of the delivery team taking the items, but the delivery centre have "Lost" the item... as such I am unable to get a refund. This has been going on and on. I don't see how a failure in their company could be impacting the customer. Bed arrived damaged after a 6 week delivery delay, took 4 weeks to get a return, they took it all and now at least a further 2 weeks to get a refund. I am out of pocket for 2 months for a bed that I was unable to use. I will not be using this company again. I went to Dreams, they delivered in 4 days and it has been amazing. Avoid Bensons for Beds as they will take your money and then refuse to give it back.

please see pictures attached of the water stains. I had a bed and headboard delivered today when opened they both were water damaged when the delivery men brought it in, they said water had got into the delivery van. I went to set it up and found there was no feet to go on it. I then tried to put the headboard on and the screws with it were too small and just fell through. I am now waiting for a new bed to be delivered in 4-6 weeks. The only reason I set it up is that I have no choice, I'd be sleeping on the floor. I originally ordered a different bed in January and cancelled in March as I kept getting delayed delivery emails

Search reviews Fiodar Sazanavets 10 reviews 1 star: Bad 4 hours ago Refused to do what we paid them for I bought a bed from Bensons for Beds and had to wait months for it to get delivered. When I signed the agreement, I paid extra for them to take my old bed. Also, I have been told that my new one would be assembled. On the day if the delivery, I've done exactly what I have been asked to. I took apart the old bed and left it outside. I also placed the mattress into a green plastic case they've provided. But when delivery came, they have refused to take the old bed, citing that it shouldn't have been on a wet grass! Also, they have refused to assemble the new bed. They just carried all the bits into the room and left. One of the team members was also exceptionally rude. Well, needless to say that it's the first and the last bed I bought from Bensons for Beds. And I wont this matter rest until my old bed has been taken free of charge and until I have received the compensation for the services that I've paid for and had not received. I'll go to a small claims court if necessary.

Had the mattress around 12 months and areas of it sank. An engineer came out and complied a report, to be told it is not a manufacturers fault! Avoid making my mistake and do not buy from this company. Bensons are avoiding taking ownership or responsibility of the product they sold. Tried multiple avenues for a resolution and all responses are deflecting the issue at hand. We are left with a mattress which has collapsed in multiple areas, and no-one is taking responsibility or trying to resolve the issue. This is absolutely shocking and appalling customer service. Anyone thinking of buying a Simba product or through Bensons - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

have been trying to stop and recover costs that creation have been taking out of my account for a item that was returned in March 2020. Between bensons for beds and creation they have been sending me back and forth saying it’s the other parties fault. Now I have been on the phone for months trying to resolve this but their team is limited apparently as to what they can do. I have call logs, times and dates detailing the whole process. It’s beyond ridiculous, I’m being sent round in circles! Cash book aren’t replying to any of the emails, even when the customer service people are labelling it urgent. £193.16 has been taken from my account by creation because bensons for beds hasn’t taken off a headboard I sent back in 2020. This headboard was £287.99, I confirmed in store with an associate and via email that this was taken off the remaining balance owed. This had not been done and the two parties are refusing to admit in the wrong. Besides this, when we actually got the mattress and frame it was soiled, wet and dirty. We had to wait over a month for a replacement. The van was letting in rain water and the delivery drivers dragged £1100s worth of goods along the floor, this tore the packaging. The frames packaging was already ripped and was soaked down one side, it left it stained. They didn’t take it back so had to have a king size bed and frame sitting in my front room. We got rid of our bed so had to sleep on the mattress for a month! It’s been a year on and my mattress is dipping! I’m 5’10 and weigh 66kg it should not be doing this this early on. 5 years warranty! It’s a joke they weeded out of everything.

watch out! Used matress sold as a new one!!! First I wanna say I'm absolute outraged, disgusted and disappointed. Simply I do not believe, and please don't try to answer on my comment my mattress is new as Is not! In my opinion, this mattress which has been sold for us as a new, Is simply up recycled, springs are old and used, is only the new cover. Whatever it is: this mattress is absolutely rubbish and I don't wanna see it anymore in my house. My old mattress had a way better condition and smaller dents than my ,, NEW'' one from Bensons for beds. Is only 5 days since I bought it, and my bottom collapses into the holes and i cannot sleep. Is more than 6 cm dents when you take a picture! There are 2 huge dents on both sides of the mattress - literally on the bum area. Is impossible to sleep in the middle as you rolling on the side where holes are. is nightmare !!! I'm waiting for explanations from Bensons but answers so far.

We bought a bed from bensons and bought the I gel matress it has all clumped up and uncomfortable. They sent a technician who was a rude obnoxious excuse for a technician. He didn't wear gloves and was touching everything also lay all over the bed with no protective clothing and with covid about has to disinfect it for 2 days . His attitude was terrible .Told it was normal wear and tear . They are supposed to be guaranteed for years, the company is not even bothered when you've got a problem or complaint ? They donot want to know dont buy from this company as guarantees are not worth the paper they're written on. Normal wear and tear when the i gel moves is the excuse. Support the smaller shops cheaper and better quality . Like previous reviews avoid!!!!!!!

Absolutely despicable company. We purchased a new mattress after trying in store. It was very evident that when the new mattress arrived and we tried for the first time, the quality of the mattress wasn’t the same as in store. Several emails telephone conversations and lots of stonewalling that they didn’t want to know. Shockingly poor all round . So please don’t even bother and save yourself a load of unnecessary hassle and stress - AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE We are now left with a mattress that we can’t use and don’t want

1st divan base arrived broken (but the drawers were ok) 5 weeks later, 2nd divan is ok but is missing feet, whilst looking we realised that both of the drawers were broken. After speaking to customer services multiple times I was told to email (but this takes 5 days to get a reply) after 10 days of no calls or emails I went onto twitter and sent a message and they replied in 9 minutes!!!! After some snotty madame told me to check my spam I replied for them to come and collect the bed. It was collected a week later and I was very impressed when I did actually get my deposit back within 7 days. But I had to sort the finance

Absolutely shocking - several parts were missing Several screws were missing. Mirror door was bent and it even said “return please” on the packaging. Clearly it was returned once before and we received the faulty order. Customer service said it would take up to 1 month for missing parts to arrive. Shocking as we already waited two months to first receive our order. I have cleared my bedroom ready for the wardrobe and now clothes and my belongings are scattered everywhere Never order from here, you’ll be disappointed

Absolutely appalled by the customer service received. Waited 8 weeks for our wardrobe to be delivered only for half of the fixtures and fittings to be in the package. Not only did this make it impossible for us to build parts of the wardrobe but also the mirrored door came bent with ‘return to RD20’ written on the cling film packaging. Someone has quite clearly returned this before and the warehouse team have been very careless when doing their job. When ordering a brand new item I expect it to come in immaculate condition, however I was extremely disappointed. After calling customer service, they advised I send a picture of the bent mirror for proof and I did exactly that. I was told the mirror looked perfectly fine and they completely overlooked my complaint. I decided to order a new mirrored door and missing hinges/screws etc which I have to wait 4 weeks for them to arrive. Awful experience, never ordering from the company again.

Just had a delivery from Bensons for Beds. It’s been the worst delivery my wife and I have ever experienced. We’re both pensioners and we’ve been forced to drag our old king size mattress downstairs and then carry our new one upstairs because the two DHL drivers refused to do so because we asked them to wear foot protectors. They didn’t have their own so we provided some for them and they still wouldn’t wear them. The elder of the two was aggressive, argumentative and confrontational. All in all the worst delivery ever - appalling.

My in-laws purchased a mattress for me and my partner as a gift back in 2020. The mattress unfortunately had a broken spring so we had to exchange it. We had to pay more for the new mattress as they had nothing the same price. We then received a mattress that had a manufacturing fault (mattress sizing was wrong) but we did find this mattress comfortable so decided to exchange for the same mattress. Due to the sizing being wrong we based the comfort on that as the new mattress arrived and it was nothing like the mattress with the manufacturing fault. We have woken up with SEVERE backache everyday - unable to go to the gym or carry out certain tasks. I currently have been diagnosed with hyper lordosis due to this! We called through to customers services to hopefully get a refund. We have spoken to Elliot a few times now and he is extremely rude, arrogant and really should not be working in a customer service role. Refused refund as “not fault with mattress” despite this being our first actual mattress we got to try out as the others came with faults. Now we are stuck with a £300 mattress we cannot sell on and have to buy another elsewhere! AVOID!! there is a reason they went into administration
