The guys at Watford were excellent, as you'd expect from Richer Sounds. The reason for not proving the fifth star relates to your chosen courier. I advised that delivery was not to be made on Saturday 25th as I would not be available to take delivery and that delivery should be Monday 27th. Despite this clarity DPD delivered on the Saturday regardless!! So that aspect was exceptionally poor and not what I would expect.

I’m really pleased to hear the team in Watford looked after you well, although of course sorry to read about the issue you experienced with the delivery not taking place as agreed.

I’ll be looking into this with the 3rd party courier of course and appreciate you bringing it to my attention. If there’s anything further I can assist with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch..
