I have to say I was very impressed with…

I have to say I was very impressed with the staff in Boscombe, Steve the manager and the girl were absolutely lovely, very clear, explained everything and did everything they could to get the Nintendo I wanted. They may me feel every step of the way they were nice decent people, that if I ever did have problems I could go in and chat to them and resolve it in some way.

Very polite.

I will just say, when I called up to make a payment for my daughter someone on the telephone team for payments, ruined the experience, were rude and if my daughter had of rung, with her bad mental health would of never rung again, the way he (not anyone from the shop) spoke, very aggressive. Also the late charge letter, the incident happened her payment was due the Saturday 8th, but we were poorly and I rung Monday 10th. On the 22nd she had a letter dated 21st which said about the late payment charge, she read it as she hadn't paid again and was in melt down until I read and said it was for the earlier charge, the payment had been sorted, we had been told about the late payment charge, to send a letter 2 weeks after if had been sorted, really effects people with bad mental health that cant think straight. If it had been sent on the 10th and received it on 12th, would of understood. Bad practice, I think.

I really can not fault the Boscombe staff for keeping in touch.

I brought a brand new Tv nearly 5wks…

I brought a brand new Tv nearly 5wks ago, I am still waiting to be able to use it properly, originally service was gd, delivered on time & set up great but later that evening when I turned the TV on I was constantly get messages saying the HDMI lead was connected, after speaking to customer service they then sent an engineer out who told me I’d need to buy a Gold HDMI lead so I did this still eagerly waiting to watch my new TV.
I plugged the new lead in only to get the same message NO HDMI lead so another call to customer service 3 days later engineer came out & said It needs a new circuit board!!! & he will order one.
So I’m still left with no TV & no idea if when he will be back to fix it??
I spoke to customer service again who said they cannot issue a new TV unless the engineer writes this one off.
So my advice to anyone waiting to buy from this company think very hard

I am very thankful to Kelly in the Andover store

I am very thankful to Kelly at the Andover store for all her help with my account unfortunately my children broke some of my products as in phones and my tv and this was no problem to the staff in Andover, these were sent off and repaired or replaced and the staff kept me up to date with the repairs so we could get my goods back to me as soon as they were sent back and this helped me massively. When I had difficulty in paying for my goods and had to have a rewrite this was done professionally and promptly to get my account back on track and Kelly helped me do this and explain everything in simple stages so I knew what was happening. I want to say a massive thank you to the staff at the Andover branch especially Kelly for all her help for all the time I was with the Andover store I miss the staff greatly. Thank you from Steven

Amazing staff at the Andover store.

In my time with Brighthouse I've had some great times with the lovely staff at Andover store especially Kelly, I faced some difficult times with personal problems and had difficulty in paying for my goods ( which I love all my goods ) and Kelly done everything in her power to help me get my account back on track and this took so much pressure off myself. With my personal problems I found communication difficult but when I phoned I was always put through to Kelly so I just spoke to one person and if she was busy she would always ring me back when she said she would. I unfortunately left Andover and moved up North and I hated having to leave the staff at Andover but still Kelly helped me every step of the way moving my account to a different store and I'll always be grateful to the staff at Andover for all the help they gave me if it wasn't for them then I probably wouldn't of managed my account. I don't have any bad experiences of being with the Andover store and I want them all to know how grateful I am and always will be.

Sam, sorry to hear of this matter. I can see that you have already notified us at Customer Relations, as such, one of our Complaint Handlers will be in contact in due course.

If you were not happy with the work completed, it would have been beneficial to let the delivery agent know, they could have corrected the matter for you there and then.
