I bought an LG G5, from curry's and was awaiting delivery. It was £2300. I then saw that Richer Sounds was offering the same TV but at £1899 and including an LG sound bar, worth £799. WHAT A DEAL!!!... See more

I bought a Cambridge audio MXN10 streamer on-line. I had a helpful chat on the phone and have had excellent service since with set-up help and all queries answered helpfully and quickly. Recommended.

Helpful and personal treatment

We visited the Croydon branch to listen to some speakers that Paul had kindly brought in for us to hear. Not only were we given time to play different tracks which Paul streamed for us but we could also discuss our impressions without pressure or sales-talk. We commend the branch and their staff for their personalized service.

Amazing service as always l

Genuinely nothing negative to say. 10/10 customer service as always.

Only one note, I spoke to someone on the phone before the shop opened and asked if they had a pair of headphones I was after in stock anywhere. They said they had a display model on the shop floor at the Croydon store. They didn’t have the pair I was after in (I should have phoned ahead to double check). Ended up leaving with a different set which I love and use constantly, so I’m actually very happy I didn’t phone ahead or I probably wouldn’t have come in. Not complaining at all, but maybe double check the stock you’ve got listed on your internal system because I’m sure there are some Karen’s out there who would have kicked off!

As always Richer Sounds continue to impress me with their knowledge, friendly staff and quality products. Big up!

Television Purchase

Paul was so helpful and helped us understand what was the best product for our requirements. Paul was very knowledgeable and not pushy like other salesman we have experienced, this is why we always go back to Richer Sounds.

Beware of delivery charge ...

Have always been happy with Richer products / service. The speakers sound great !
Was slightly disappointed I had to pay for delivery, as website says orders over £50 are delivered free.

Excellent sales service from Croydon…

Excellent sales service from Croydon store and subsequent enquiry when trying to set up tv was dealt with immediately and an online explanatory video confirmed Paul’s telephone advice.

New TV for Christmas

I have been a customer of Richer Sounds for many years now. The customer service is SO good that I exclusively buy my TVs and surround systems from them. Having had my previous TV for 10 years, it was time for a change/upgrade. After phoning them up, as I had a few questions, I was able to buy a TV and a new surround system at a great price. Went to the store and picked it up just in time for Christmas viewing. Excellent all-round customer service.

The epitome of excellent customer service

My family has bought tvs from Richer Sounds for many years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. This is the gold standard of service in every way and their prices are competitive. I was easily able to choose what I wanted from the website and the tv arrived very promptly.

Great advice - fantastic delivery service.

I walked into the shop with no knowledge of Head Phones but was given great assistance and subsequently ordered a pair. Sadly wasn't in stock for me to take away but they arrived at my home the very next day! I was very impressed and I am certain my husband will be very happy with his Christmas present.

Cable to hook old to new

A while ago I was looking to purchase a cable to hook up my new Smart TV to a very old VHS DVD combi unit.
I had the great fortune that Dominic answered the phone, and even when I said I was not a customer he assisted me with what I was looking for.
He went above and beyond as far as looking up the TV model and all its inputs to give me the best possible advice.
He spent over 30 minutes with me explaining all the different outputs and what they do.
And I phoned back a week or so later to say I had the cable and the unit was hooked up and Dominic was very pleased that I would hopefully now be able to transfer my VHS tapes to DVDs.
Unfortunately I have had to purchase another unit but I have the cable thanks to Dominic being so kind, helpful and patient.
Thank you so much, you are a credit to your workplace and I hope to meet you when I come to purchase a DVD player once all my VHS data is all on DVDs.
