Absolutely Dreadful Rude Customer Service

As a customer I have never ever been spoken to the way I was by one of the sales team at Ponsford. His attitude was appalling. His snobbery was unbelievable! He told me he had 20 years of experience and accused me of chasing and chasing an order for a sofa we ordered at the end of October 2024 and were still waiting for at the end of February 2025! He had no concept of logistics and didn’t seem to understand I needed a date to work to, to enable me to rid of my existing sofas. After a couple of baffling and bumbling left messages on my voice mail we eventually spoke for him to tell me, the chair had arrived but he didn’t know which lorry the sofa would arrive on. He couldn’t give a date as ‘didn’t I know that lorry’s have taco-graphs and drivers need to sleep’! 🤷‍♀️.

Disgusting service ! He left me feeling so belittled I put the phone down on him !

When sofa eventually came the wrong cushions arrived with the chair. Totally non matching with the sofa and NOT what I ordered. It took another 6 weeks before the cushion covers were eventually dispatched. It was as though no one cared. !

I would never recommend anyone to use them - Look elsewhere!

Carpet Fitting.

The Carpet we purchased from Ponsfords was fitted by Graeme and William. They are very professional and did an excellent job. The room was left in a very clean and tidy state, and all the furniture was put back in place. We are extremely happy with both the Carpet and the fitting.

Ponsford - Sofas & Carpets

The entire experience at Ponsford has been superb - from purchase of the sofas through to the carpets for the whole house. A genuine pleasure - most especially, dealing with Andrew Langner and Karl Lambert of the carpets sales team. Both of these gentlemen are a credit to the Ponsford store. Thankyou both for your patience and support throughout the purchase, fitting and after sales stages.

I would highly reccommend Ponsford for a great experience.

Graeme and William went that extra mile…

Graeme and William went that extra mile when fitting our new carpet in a bedroom. They were thorough and completed the work professionally and more importantly, cleaned up well after fitting the carpet. This will be a return visit to purchase a carpet from Ponsfords as we have been extremely pleased with the workmanship of their carpet fitters. Give them a pay rise! 😀 Thank you 👏👏👏

amazing service from start to finish. Staff are approachable and helpful but also give you time to look around without pressurising you.

Jonathon was attentive and especially helpful with explaining how the products work, the ranges available and specific product knowledge. He has the highest standards of customer service

Carpet fitting with excellent customer service.

We recently had a carpet fitted. The whole service from start to finish was first rate. The carpet fitters did an excellent job. What stood out for us was they included removal of our old carpet and moving the furniture. This was at an additional cost but the fitters took the care to prepare the floor thoroughly before laying the new carpet. It was so refreshing to use company that put customer care at the forefront. I would highly recommend to others.

When things arent right, its good to know you are being dealt with by professionals

Had a couple of minor issue with 2 sofas. I am happy to say we were dealt with expertly from start to finish by Yolanda, Catherine and Liam. Tremendous service, polite, timely, good workmanship and good communications all throughout. They went over and above to overcome an unexpected hiccup. Thank you

Service received.

I came to look at sofas.
Sarah was informative, knowledgeable and listened to my needs. She had patience whilst showing me all the options.
I consider her to be a professional sales advisor.

Hassle free

I should have done this ages ago but Christmas got in the way and then I just forgot. Steve and Tom delivered my new sofa and chair on 28 November and then delivered another chair on 19 December. Both times they were very professional and friendly, respecting my property and making sure they didn’t trail any mud into the house. They also took away my old suite and if I remember correctly they disposed of all the rubbish too. They let me know what time they would arriving and kept me updated by phone. Great guys.
