Dispatched very quickly

The company dispatched the item very quickly and were on hand to resolve the initial problem that we had the first delivery company. I would not hesitate to use this company again in the future!

Quick Delivery on Clearance Bargains

I picked up some good-value clearance items, which were delivered the following day. My only gripe with SoCal is that the minimum purchase amount for free delivery is £75. This is okay for larger, bulky items, but when buying a handful of small items for £50+, I think free delivery would be appropriate.

The Provence stove was £350- £400…

The Provence stove was £350- £400 pounds in other stores, Solcal price £299, so firstly the price was great, and that is what made me look at the Socal store online.
I ordered the stove on the Sunday, I had an email within 30 mins to say they were processing the order and would be in touch. By 8.30 on the Monday morning, I had another email to say that it had been processed and was with the delivery company and it was delivered by 11am on the Tuesday. We live over 230 miles away, so this delivery service, which was also free, was excellent.
I would 100% use Socal again, excellent price, communication and delivery. Great service

best firm I have dealt with

Recommended to the Provence heater by a friend who uses a few round his home as alternative to central heating. Very pleased with the product, even more so by the company -Socal. Very easy to make my purchase at the best price as well. In touch with me immediately to arrange delivery and two days later it was being palleted into my house, brilliant. Sitting in front of the fire now appreciating the look of it and the warmth it gives out.
