“Ordered a fridge freezer with them. Paid for installation. When it arrived the drivers left it in the hallway and did not bother installing. No masks were worn. Price of fridge had dropped over the time it had taken to be delivered yet would not honour their price march gurantee, even though this was the price on their own website! Taken 2 months to get the refund for not installing ssd product. Avoid like the plague.”

“What an awful experience. I ordered an electronic device, a week later nothing had arrived. I call them up, being served by a rude customer support person, they say oops the item is out of stock. In the meantime, they had charged my card, sent me a receipt but never followed up to inform me of the out of stock situation. They couldn't tell me if and when it will be back in stock, actually, they didn't care to find out. I call them a week later, the operator found 3 items in stock and updated my order as sending. 48 hours later, nothing again. I call them up again, oops it is out of stock. They offered no compensation for the whole inconvenience, no apologies, nothing. I asked to speak to a manager, they said they would call me back within 48 hours. Guess what, they never called. I cancelled the order and purchased the item from a different supplier at a lower cost and with next day delivery and with immediate updates. Currys is a company that does not deserve to exist in this time and age. Thank you.”

“Cluelsess customer service. Asked for a replacement over three weeks after produc delivered was damaged, then they told me to ask for the uplift number from manufacturer and because it was over 7 days, manufcaturer couldn't do anything. So frustrating.”

“I was able to collect my purchase on the same day and I felt very safe (good measures in place). I wanted to return an item and it was easy and the refund got to my account in less than 48 hours. I would only suggest to send a more detailed email about the collection when returning an item. Very happy customer here!”

“Poor service. I bought a vacuum cleaner from Curry’s online in March 2020 and it is not working now in February 2021, so it is within the guarantee period. When I rang their customer “care” line they told me to ring Bosch. No interest in what was wrong or how to help.”

“Ordered a washing machine from Currys which they delivered and installed promptly, but they left without testing it or switching it on. We immediately realised it was faulty and tried to contact Currys and that’s where it all went wrong. In short: you can’t. If you phone Currys or use their webchat, they give you a number that just transfers you to the manufacturer. They won’t arrange an exchange without a number from the manufacturer but the manufacturer will only give that number to Currys, not the customer. The webchat staff are foreign and just keep repeating the same thing then cut you off. So Currys have deliberately set up a system that makes it impossible to have a faulty product replaced. I will never, ever, buy anything from this shower of scammers again.”

“My recent experience with Currys was beyond awful! Currys listed the item incorrectly: Firstly, the product I purchased was mis-sold. Product information: The item listed 'integrated fridge-freezer', Currys have since revised their mistake on the website. The appliance is in fact a freestanding fridge-freezer (not at all compatible with integrated kitchen joinery). Attempting to resolve through their website: I made a prompt enquiry with Currys online 'Virtual Assistant' - I was unsuccessful in resolving the issue here. Phone calls: My following action was a call to 'Team Knowhow' - also unsuccessful. More unsuccessful website chat, phone calls: From here, I went to online chat via their website. Spoke with six separate representatives (one chat 'disconnected' - I'm guessing as they exceeded their target), a further five unsuccessful phone calls (one of which I was hung up on). Driving to various stores to sort in person: After advice from live chat on the Currys website, I drove to my local store to speak to a member of staff in person. They were unable to assist and told me to drive to the nearest store (a further 30-mile round trip) to speak with customer services at an alternative branch. I did so, as soon as I arrived they informed me I'd have to call the phone line - at this point after wasting four hours of my time, I refused to call the number. Instead, asking a member of the customer help team to call on my behalf. Collection day: The driver arrived 2 hours before their scheduled collection window, although they gave 20minutes notice which luckily was enough time to coordinate a family member arriving. Incorrect collection details: Currys had recorded the WRONG product for collection. Therefore all the paperwork was wrong and they refused to take the item they mis-sold to me. They will not allow for a refund until they collect their error - still unresolved. Very stressed and unhappy customer - Never again!”

“The service I have received from Currys is absolutely appalling. Trying to sort out the vouchers to replace our faulty cooker, which Currys engineer has deemed to be unsafe to use, is a complete joke and an utter nightmare. To begin with, trying to speak to someone on their customer service lines is the most frustrating thing imaginable, you are kept waiting for someone to talk too up to, in my experience yesterday, some 40 mins. Then when you do eventually speak to a team know how person they are useless. Not a clue what’s going on, unable to answer a simple question, and tell you a pack of lies to get you off the call. Quite frankly you would get more help from a sub normal chimpanzee! They are without doubt, one of the worst company’s I have had the misfortune of dealing with. I have up until now been a loyal customer to Currys and purchased several expensive white goods from them including a recent new expensive OLED tv, but never again. I shall avoid them like the plague.”

“I'm not one to write negative reviews, or even write reviews but my experience with Curry's was atrocious. I bought a laptop on Black Friday, the process was easy and quick but I realised immediately I was given a faulty laptop. I went into store and they told me to call customer services. I called customer services and after waiting an hour to get to someone they said I can exchange the laptop but I'd have to go in store. Long story short, I was sent back and forth so many times because of the lack of coordination between departments. I had to call up customer services almost every day for two weeks to try and sort this out, having to wait in a queue for an hour each time. In store, there was always a long queue of unhappy customers having to go through so much just to return a faulty item. One of the times, I was once in store for three hours because of how useless the customer service team is; I was even given a parking ticket even though I was in the Curry's car park. After 3 weeks of stress I finally managed to return the item. I emailed customer service teams and CEOs but have still not received any response after three months. If you buy from Curry's, the price difference will be made up for by atrocious customer service and faulty products. Only buy from them if you're 100% sure you'll never have to deal with them again!”

“What a joke! I purchased a vacuum cleaner on line , nothing but confusion when I got there . Finally got it home and it doesn’t work . Two hours wait on the so called helpline to be told I have to write an email instead. I will never ever use them again. Rubbish product , rubbish service.”

“Shocking! Waited 2 weeks for my cooker, paid and ordered online. No correspondence what so ever via email/txt/phone call too give delivery date/time! Absolute shambles.Customer service is a joke, web chat is beyond and no point trying too get hold of a “real” person! Single Mum with 2 small children, paid £400 for cooker and installation and no option but too wait! Actually had a phone call this morning off delivery guy and had it installed and old cooker removed, could not fault the guys. But completely lost faith in CURRYS, had too purchase other “gadgets” too try and cook so in total it’s cost me a small fortune, which I couldn’t truly afford! Never ever again will I use CURRYS!”

“I ordered a washing machine and was given a delivery date. The washing machine was never delivered. On querying this, I was told that the product wasn't in stock. Despite the product not being in stock, the website still let me order it, saying that it was available for next day delivery. I was charged for the washing machine, yet it was never in stock, and I never received it. I have now been waiting for over two weeks for the refund, which I still haven't received. I have chased this 3 times now, to be told to be patient and that the refund will be in my account within 3-5 working days. It still hasn't. I am astonished that Currys were allowed to take money out of my account for a product that was out of stock, and am even more annoyed that I have been given false information throughout. I took my custom elsewhere, but still awaiting a refund.”

“Where do I start. Called for refund on a smart t.v. didn't work after only 3 weeks wanted me to put extra packaging did straight away with promise of next day collection week later still waiting. Trying to get in touch impossible. Pity you can't give no stars Absolutely fuming can't afford to lose the money need it to go somewhere else for another. If it's ever collected apparently have to wait at least 10 days again to be refunded”

“Stay clear of this company Use ao or Argos or anywhere but curry’s Brought a new tv jan 2021. Just moved into our new house and unboxed 5 days ago. There is a problem with the screen. No phone number to call to speak to a human and was passed onto Samsung. They advised me the tv is from 2016 ie 5 years old. It’s missing lots of features that it says it has on curry’s website. Contacted curry’s on Facebook as that was the only way I could get a response after 2 pointless replies I’m getting ghosted. Fuming 😤”

“Ordered a fridge and when I placed the order I could chose which day I wanted it to come. I took a whole day off work as it was 7am - 7pm, it got to 6:55 and it had not been delivered yet. I went online and tracked the delivery and it stated it would not be delivered until 3 days after the date I chose to be delivered on!! Baring in mind I took a day off work and no one would be in the house that day! I went to use the customer service to explain this and they were so rude! They were implying I was a liar and didn’t chose a day, like I would make it up that I chose a day for it to be delivered! Will not be using curry’s again!”
