Joe from the Richer Sounds in York was very polite and very helpful.
Sonos had offers on, plus a 2 year warranty. I rang Richer Sounds up and not only did Joe match the Sonos offer he discounted it a bit more too, plus I got a 6 year warranty on the sonos speakers I got from Richer Sounds in York🙂
Thank you, Joe, Aaron, and the rest of the team at the York Richer Sounds branch

Richer Sounds always delivers

Richer Sounds always delivers on service and choice. They also really know their stuff when it comes to AV tech. If a product is available elsewhere for a few quid less, I'll still go with RS.

Staff were great as usual but the tv was delivered 24 hours later than booked. Waited in all day wasted a day and then had to cancel and they re arrange the installer who could only fit in the installation in eight days time.

Thank you for leaving your feedback, I was of course sorry to read that the late arrival of the TV caused you issues. From investigation the courier fulfilled their side of things so the issue appears to be between when the stock arrived with us, and what you were told to expect.

Our customer service team will be in touch to find out more about this, with a view to resolving the matter to your satisfaction..

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service. We needed a replacement for our radio/cd player. Richer Sounds had a product we liked the look of, at a reasonable price. On speaking to the York branch, the sales assistant said the item wasn't in stock at the branch but they could get one delivered to us. It arrived within 24 hours and we are delighted with it and the service we received.

First class customer service

First class customer service, courteous and professional as always.
Genuine price matching, not just pretence and referring to terms and conditions. Wouldn’t shop for my hifi and TV anywhere else.

Great, knowledgeable advice.

The sales person in the shop was very knowledgeable and helpful. He gave us unbiased advice regarding our prospective purchase.

We are very happy with the items and have found his advice to be very accurate.

Great TV, but……

Superb tv (LG Qned), price and delivery were great. Only issue was with the York branch, who advised me that they had an example of the tv in store for me to view prior to purchase, but having made a special 80+ mile round trip it turned out that they only had a previous years lower spec model on display. Disappointing from a service perspective but took a punt by buying the tv online without seeing it first and have to say it is all I hoped for, so apart from a wasted journey, no real harm done.

Thank you for the feedback, it's good to hear you are happy with the TV of course but obviously I was very sorry to read about the wasted journey you had. I've since spoken to the store colleague you dealt with initially via e-mail, who held his hands up to the human error and has promised do better next time.

I will arrange for the store to give you a call to a call to put this right, and if I can be of any more help in the meantime do let me know.

One of the best for customer service I have ever encountered. A quick call can get all your enquiries and orders placed. Quick to offer help and future support and their warranty is a huge peace of mind.
