The process of buying a couple of new…

The process of buying a couple of new sofas went fine.
Its the additional information that was poor.
We asked if Sterling took away our existing sofas and was told no but Sterling have a relationship with Clearabee - a link is on your website. We were told it would cost around £60. Clearabee told us it would be over £180
We told to give Clearabee our Sterling sales number and they would coordinate when to take away our current sofas when our new sofas are delivered. Clearabee told us that they dont do this. We have to select a specific day and then change it once Sterling give us a delivery date. Thats isnt my defination of a coordinated approach!
If your salemen are giving customers information about your relationship with Clearabee, at least have the good grace to give accurate information

Hi Stuart,

Thank you for your feedback.

We are pleased to hear that the sofa purchase itself went smoothly, however we are very sorry for the frustration caused by the inaccurate information regarding the Clearabee service.

We understand your disappointment, particularly as the costs quoted and the delivery coordination process you were advised of did not match the information provided by Clearabee. We appreciate that this fell short of the service and clarity you should expect from us.

Please accept our apologies for the confusion caused. We have passed your comments to the relevant departments so that the information being provided to customers can be reviewed and clarified with our teams.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we apologise again for the inconvenience caused.

Kind Regards

Exceptional service on all fronts from both both Angus and David (with the beard) at Sterling Furniture, Kinnaird Park. These guys are the people to deal with — their product knowledge and genuine customer care is second to none, ultimately the reason I walked away a very happy paying customer. Thanks again gents.

Nice flooring…

Pleased with kitchen flooring and most of the customer service. Clive was very helpful and understanding.
We initially chose flooring which when it arrived had an overall green look. We wanted a replacement which was eventually upheld but had to pay
extra for returning the flooring £500 which
still seems ridiculous. The fitter Stevie was great.

Hi Carole

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re really pleased to hear that you’re happy with your kitchen flooring overall and that both Clive and Stevie made such a positive impression. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind comments to them.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the initial flooring choice and understand how disappointing it must have been when it didn’t meet expectations. While we’re glad we were able to agree on a replacement albeit with unavoidable additional charges.

Thank you again for your comments and of course for shopping with us.

The boys were punctual, efficient and even hoovered up most of the excess carpet! As an added bonus, one of them helped me move some furniture back into the room before they left.

Absolute incompetence and disregard for their customer

We bought flooring from Sterling about a year ago. They came to inspect the floor prior to fitting, they fitted the subfloor after lifting the existing carpet and they recommended then fitted a vinyl tile. This cost over £6,000. We believed they were a company we could trust. In the past year the floor has cracked, separated in places, chipped and generally been a nightmare. Their fitters think the whole thing needs replaced. I’ve exchanged in excess of 100 emails and yet I still can’t get a full refund. I’m worn out, have an elderly relative here and really just want this to end so I can start again with a company who can do the job properly. This has been an endless nightmare and, while they seem to offer solutions, it’s never what suits the customer, who is the one who has suffered from their absolute incompetence so, if you don’t want to live a life of regret, do not go near Sterling. Beyond exhausted. I can’t see a place to attach photos so that’s a shame but think cracks, splits, poor finishes, raised section…
I’ll keep you posted but, still heard nothing! Clearly their customers are irrelevant! Just really low. It grinds you down. I’m assuming that’s their intention. They’re a giant company with all the power. The customer is a minion. Powerless. ☹️
