I have never experienced such terrible service. It is embarrassing for this Swoon and I would never order from them again. They are totally disrespectful to their customers and have a total lack of care; ranking their processes over customer care. Other companies who provide cheaper products such as Dunelm put this company to shame with their customer care.

Wow, where to begin. I really would leave 0 stars if I could but that isn't an option. My partner and I bought a sofa and decided to really splash out and go for something really special, so we opted for the Seattle Corner sofa from Swoon. We tried to see this in store but as we live in North Wales our options were limited. We asked for a fabric swatch and were told this wouldn't be possible, so we took the plunge and ordered the sofa in our desired fabric - the tan stone leather. We tried to purchase our sofa using Klarna - and although my partner has an absolutely fantastic credit rating we were rejected on the grounds we were 'new clients to Klarna and couldn't purchase something that big first time around'. I tried to speak with someone at Swoon Customer care regarding this and was essentially told 'oh well as it's Klarna it's nothing to do with us.' If you are using a 3rd party company on your site, it absolutely is your problem. 'Customer Care' at it's very worst if you ask me. We made the regrettable decision to use our savings to purchase the sofa outright. We were absolutely horrified when the sofa turned up...(over 2 weeks late I might add). The sofa appears to be outrageously cheaply made, the 'leather' is essentially plastic and actually squeaks when you sit down. It isn't at all comfortable, and the sofa back is so low that it's almost pointless having a sofa back at all. For over £2,500 we are absolutely shocked, having been lead to believe that Swoon were good quality pieces. We are now having to return our sofa after a really disappointing customer experience. Swoon,I seriously suggest you look into your partnership with Klarna as I can't imagine we're the first people to have had significant problems with it.

Items arrived damaged on 4 separate occasions, so cancelled a separate order with a lead time of four months and still waiting for my refund after asking several times. Run away as a PP said. Terrible terrible company and poor quality and customer service.

I wish I had the option for no stars, this is he most dishonest and terrible company I have ever had to deal with. 5 months on no sofa, no one returns calls. I would avoid this company at all costs, it has ruined moving into our new home. I am pretty sure they are taking money with the view to going bankrupt. Do not wait for your order get a refund now

If I could get a negative star rating I would put that here. I've exchanged 26 emails and multiple calls with SWOON customer service about delivery of my order. This item was ordered in March for delivery in MAY. SWOON are unable to provide clear indication of where my order is, who their delivery partners are, or how to escalate. The customer service are a zen desk smoke screen with chat bots! PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME BUYING FROM SWOON. Totally fraudulent!

Ordered an Athena coffee table in Jan due for del by end of April. After hearing nothing at end of April I contacted Swoon. I’ve now sent many emails and called and all I get is they will contact me ASAP to let me know what’s happening with my order. Worst customer service ever. I wish I’d never ordered with Swoon. I’ve read loads of the same complaint. Obviously Swoon don’t care. Wouldn’t ever deal with Swoon again. Debbie Williamson (CEO) obviously isn’t interested she’s impossible to contact.

Spent £1200 on a Luna three seater sofa, it was supposed to arrive 3 weeks ago. I have spoken to virtually the entire customer service team (mathew, jade, rebecca, amber...) someone in the London office (stephen) and a customer service manager (Jamie), everyone says they'll phone me back but I never receive a call. I've waited at home on 3 separate days (missing a days pay each time) for it, every time it doesnt show up and no one can tell me where it is, why it didn't come or when I will actually receive. The level of customer service is POLITE but USELESS. No one will actually help you, including the delivery company ArrowXL who will also fob it off and not explain what is happening. To rub salt in the wound they turned up one day to COLLECT a sofa from me. Absolutely the worst experience I have had with buying a product. I still have no sofa, still have no calls back, still have spent probably 6 hours on the phone over the last week trying to locate it. Don't even bother, the products may look nice but once you actually order, if theres even the slightest issue expect to neither receive your product or any customer care. I tally approximately 40 calls, countless emails and over 10 members of staff that I have spoken to. Still. No. Sofa. But on the plus side I have been ASSURED by 8 different people that I WILL get a call back... I wonder when...

Awful service, average quality at designer prices. Yesterday I finally got two chairs ordered in February which arrived asxteo crumpled heaps. One has such severe frame damage it has to be returned and replaced which will take another 3 months!! That will be 6 months to get a chair delivered! The Taj Mahal was build in less time. Customer services are friendly but have no power st all. Standard answers and not much action. Once this sorry saga has gone to an end I will never use them again! Not worth the aggro we gave had over the last 4 months.

The furniture itself is awesome and you can't fault the price. But the delivery process is absolutely painful. Swoon give you updates re: when your furniture is due to arrive in their warehouse - I've made 4 orders and all 4 updates have been horribly wrong. I waited an extra 3 MONTHS to receive part of my order. Customer Services are polite but always say the same thing, "your order is delayed - we expect it in our warehouse next week." I had that same reply 6 times. The furniture is great but the constant need to chase your order and 3 month delays in delivery times are completely unacceptable. I should have paid the extra and gone to a retailer who can deliver to the timelines they advertise.

Damaged product and non delivery of items 4 occasions Appalled and the service i received. Had to wait in 4 times for a simple cushion delivery as despite Swoon advising me that DPD had the correct address every delivery day it transpired they didn't. Instead i have to spend £8 travelling to a depot to pick up my order (and over two hours of my weekend) as the last non successful delivery resulted in my brother who had been waiting in for me losing a temp job as the delivery notice stated a specific time and did not happen. Swoon were not proactive at all with the onus on me constantly calling. In addition to this the promised i would get both orders through them delivered at once. Which did not happen. I received my first order later in the day than advised and once it arrived i found it to be damaged. After 10 weeks of waiting i WILL NEVER use them again. Update= 26th April. No news or update from Swoon was promised a quick rectification but a week on no contact.

The Seymour set of side tables is much lower quality than I expected for the price, however I decided to eventually keep them because they are the right size that I need for a very small space and I have put too much time into the process of looking for something. I do not believe Swoon oversees quality enough as the first set of tables delivered to me (since returned) had significant defects in the gold finish and the second replacement set had defects in one of the glass tops. After notifying customer service about the defects in the glass in the replacement set they said they had to find out what to do with my issue, then they did not get back to me. Eventually after chasing them again for resolution I was offered £40 off the second set instead of replacing the glass, which I was annoyed about but decided to take because I was very tired of the process and speaking to customer services at that point. I would advise someone to shop elsewhere for furniture or else they could get caught in the long cycle of wait for delivery/sub-par quality/haggle/wait for pick up date/return/replace/repeat... and because the quality is just not there for the price and the hassle.

Ordered some side tables in January 2019 and provided a delivery date of "April". Now been told, delivery is due in May! Not worth waiting 4 months - sofas can be ordered and delivered sooner than these tables! Not impressed at all with the time delay, and reasons "delay to shipment". At least update your customers!

Extremely poor quality furniture with shoddy workmanship - we had to try and return the item as there were missing parts and the parts that were present were not made correctly. This was combined with the worst customer service we have ever experienced. Over a month on from the delivery and trying to resolve the situation (having waited around 12 weeks to get the item in the first place) we are still left with faulty furniture in our house.

Terrible from start to finish. We ordered nearly £2,000 worth of products from Swoon. The only ones we kept were two bedside tables, and even then there was damage to those which we received a part refund for. The dining table was a completely different colour and marked, and the shelving unit had holes drilled in completely the wrong place so wouldn't assemble. Refunds took over a month to arrive despite me chasing continuously and the collection for the table was unable to happen as the address had been put into the collection company system wrong by Swoon – which resulted in us staying home for no reason and having to have a 50kg packaged table in our house for another week for no reason. Emails send to the customer service address 'never arrived' as the person who was dealing with the case left the company...a shower of you know what from start to finish. I can't recommend anything about the company. Swish marketing, website and photos, terrible everything else.

A very bad service UNRELIABLE. I received the wrong colour sofa twice, in the end, they decided to replace my incorrect sofa with newly made to order which takes 8-10 weeks time. Even after placing the new sofa order I received an email after 3 weeks that there was a system error and new order did not go through. They automatically charged me for new sofa without refunding me for the old one. The customer care is very bad, unreliable. I only thought to go with swoon due to 5 years guarantee. If they can not guarantee in delivering the right sofa after 4 attempts how can we rely on their guarantee? With a lot of frustration, In the end, I requested them to refund everything and collect the wrong sofa. Hopefully, I get my money back before the bank gets overdrawn. Now I will not have a sofa but at least I will have peace of mind that I will get the correct sofa I like. Above is the short story, I have been through a lot of hassle and fake return call promises. Huge waste of time.

This company is a joke! The quality is terrible, the furnitures were all damaged and the delivery methods are even worse. Run away, just saying.

very poor materials and quickly degrades The Swoon sofas look great but they are not at all durable and quickly degrade. After less than 12 months our sofa developed a stretching of the fabric and a pudding like effect on the seat cushions. We complained twice to Swoon and their response was that it was to be expected and that there was nothing they would do. There is no warning on the website that if you choose a woolen fabric it will become unsightly, deformed and wear considerably within 6-24 months. At this price point, we do not feel this is acceptable quality, performance from the product or the company. We strongly advise you not to buy a product from this company.
