“I called the helpline to ask if the Lowestoft store had a HTC VIVE in store that I could see demonstrated for me. I was told no and that the nearest one I could see working was Colchester some 75 miles away. That store has 3 in stock and will have one set up in store for customers to see it working I was told I asked her to confirm this as it was a long way to drive if they couldn't meet my needs. She called the store then called me back. She told me she couldn't get the store but would guarantee that my needs would be met. I drove to Colchester went in the store and was told that never had a demonstration model set up and never have had. I was angry to say the least. They then asked what my PC system that I was going to use it with was. I had very recently bought a new Laptop from Curry's PC World that cost me around a £1000, I showed to the sales person. I was informed that the graphic card was not good enough to support the gaming system above so I actually feel not only did I waste a £1000 on a laptop that wasn't what I needed but I also wasted today 1/2 a day of my time on a 150 mile round trip and the wasted fuel around 22 litres costing me around £28. I am not happy. The TV campaign they are currently running is laughable”

“Hi. I do alot of shopping online but for a new washing machine I decided to go in-store at Currys. I saw a nice display Samsung that was on offer. Paid for it and saw it bubble wrapped in front of me. All set for delivery on Monday. BUT come Monday had a call from transport to say go back in-store as the item wasn't in stock to pick up...? Drove all the way back to Currys who said the item has been collected by Transport on Saturday i.e. 2 days before delivery. Now the item is 'lost', my money has been taken, and I am without a washing machine with 6 kids in the household! Not one person has bothered to call me to give an update/replacement/apologise even! Basically if you want hassle free shopping don't use Currys. Just a month ago I purchased an oven from ao.com for the first time and it was as easy as 1-2-3 from the click to buy to delivery. Currys obviously don't care about the customers as the arrogance they have shown and negligence is shocking.”

“Purchased a cooker from currys. After using the cooker for a few days the bars and cooker began to lose its colour. Contacted customer service on numerous occasions. Staff were all giving mixed messages. After several attempts of contacting customer service, was told replacement bars would be sent to replace the faulty bars and a representative would be sent to view the cooker. The representative arrived in a very abrupt manner, I came down to find him shouting at my mother. I asked him to lower his voice and explained he was being rude by raising his voice. He then went on to say the bars are not loosing the colour and that 'aluminium is coming of our saucepans and a cleaning material will make the aluminium will come off. He then bought a cleaning material and began scrubbing the cooker. I explained to the representative that the cleaning material was not working so the cooker and bars are clearly loosing their colour. He continued to shout and say its aluminium coming off your saucepans. I then asked for his name and said I would be making a complaint about him as he came across very rude and aggressive. He then picked up his clipboatd, continued shouting and left. Contacted customer service again and was told a representative would be sent out again but we would have to pay the call out charge. Explained that according to the guarantee the bars should be replaced as they are faulty. Customer service hung up the phone. The most terrible customer service I have ever come across, staff member are vile and damn right rude! Absolutely disgusted by your service. Will never purchase from you again and will definitely not reccomend you to family and friends. Bottom line: would not reccomend!”

“Dreadful experience. We ordered a new TV on Sunday and they promised todeliver on Monday. We were told that some-one would phone in the morning with an expected delivery time. This did not happen. I had to check the time by phoning and was told that it would be roughly late afternoon after 15.30. By 18.00 the delivery had not appeared and soon after we received a phone call to say the delivery lorry had broken down and the delivery was cancelled until the following morning. I phoned Currys and they promised delivery in the morning. This duly took place but upon opening the box we discovered that the screws to connect the TV to the stand were missing. Yet another call to Currys who suggested I package up the TV and return it to the shop...what a joke, I'm a senior citizen!! The second suggestion was that I go to Currys and try and get the missing screws from an unopened box, another joke, a 10 mile drive with no guarantee that they would comply. The last suggestion was that I phone Sony to get the missing screws. This I did. Fortunately they were quite obliging and sorted it but we have had no TV for 3 days as a result. Currys...waste of time. We'll go somewhere else next time.”

“I am saying a HUGE 0 star to Currys. I am so! So angry as we paid for a TV and old that it would arrive today. Tracking text this morning, delivery would be between 1.20 and 5.20. Yes you guessed.......... No delivery. Got on the delivery cuctomer service line 26 mins, 18 mins and 10 mins. No one answered and spoke to nobody. Currys customer service is dreadful. I am so angry as at half past 7 this evening the tracking web page had changed to delivery in 2 days . No phone call, no e mail from Currys and no Text. I will now tell family, friends and anyone I come across not to buy anything from Currys. They have a dreadful customer service.”

“I purchased a new oven on line following one of their typical "Special Offer ends today" scenarios ......So I paid for it thinking I got a good deal.....Then blow me the following week they were offering the oven with no special offer prices £40 cheaper than I bought it for ..........................What a bunch.Anyway lesson learned when dealing with that lot ....”

“I am so cross about the day I have had and what should have been a nice straightforward experience of getting a new washing machine delivered and installed after the other needed replacing. Got a slot of 10-2 but still no sign by 2 nor a phonemail/any communication regarding what was happening. Rang up rather cheesed off to be told there had been an incident and they were running half an hour behind. I was very lucky to have a husband working at home which meant I could go out and leave it with him as fed up of staying in to wait. Then by text from husband learned they had finally arrived at 3pm - thought "great, finally.." then another text that it wouldn't be installed as not the right connection - how could this be when we had already had another washing machine installed?? I was incensed! husband told me to find a flagstaff which was not on our connection and without this, the "expert" was not allowed to install incase of any water leaks. Husband told him that should be ok if he just turns water off at stopcock and not to worry about any bit of water coming out. But no, and neither could he disconnect the old machine due to the same problem - so what was the point of coming at all?!! I would have told him to take the machine and himself back to where they had come from!! the incident was also apparently that the driver had run out of driving time so this was a different guy who had needed to go and pick the machine up etc etc but no explanation of why this was not communicated to customer. So Currys are happy to take your money off you but couldn't give a monkeys whether you get the service you're expecting, nor indeed the appliance you were so stupid to buy from them, whether it actually works as you expected, totally cheesed and will recommend to anyone thinking of doing the same to GO LOCAL!!!! they are experts, not these delivery drivers who have been shown to do the basics, so so so MAD!!!!!!!!!! on top of that, rang to get if off my chest - the music is awful, then get put through to someone else after waiting a good 6 minutes to have to have another 6 minutes worth and just lost the will..”

“Still no Birthday present 13 days after an in-store purchase of an Asus chrome flipbook Beware ! before you order in the Dundee store. Finally received the Chromebook on the 23rd August after purchasing on the 9th. The final straw was the Chromebook stopped working on Friday the 3rd November less than three months after receiving the item. I returned to Currys to have them take my Chromebook away to try and find out the problem which can take up to 28 days. So my birthday present is spending more time at Currys than with me. I am hoping this will have a happy ending with Currys showing me they can deserve a good review.”

“Delivery from currys due Friday tracked online and it showed it would be in the afternoon. It did not arrive tracked again then it showed delivery on Monday. There was no communication from anyone so sat in all day for nothing. Then from Friday evening l tried to get through to the delivery number, eventually got through on Sunday morning. Explained what happened and that l wanted the item cancelled. At the very least l would have thought that l would have been offered something so that l kept the order but no the order just was cancelled. I had another item being delivered from AO.com and what an excellent service, phone call to give estimate delivery time and then 10 minutes before l got a phone call to say they where near by. I think you could learn a lot from them.”

“Good Morning My washing machine first went wrong on the 23rd October 2017. The engineer attended the 26th October to fit a part didn’t fix the problem ordered another part. Rebooked for 31st October I took another day off work only for the visit to be cancelled on the morning of the call to say the parts had not arrived. You would of known this the day before therefore could of let me know instead of wasting my time and a days annual leave. Appointment then rebooked for Saturday 4th November part fitted only to be told more parts are required. Including one of the parts that was replaced on the first visit? This is now the second week with no washing machine I now have to spend another Saturday at the launderette paying £7 per load which when you do four loads equals £28 a time which means I spent £56 getting my washing done and spent two Saturdays sat in a launderette , wasted two days annual and now have take another day off work. Your quite happy to take the cover agreement payment every month but the service you provide is below standard. Not only am I paying for cover I’m now paying to use a laundrette and using the last days annual leave I have left this year. Why are not all the parts brought on a repair visit it seems to be a bit of a guessing game just keep fitting parts until the machine is fixed? How many more visits will be required until you have rebuilt the machine?”
