All was good

All was good, but Currys did not let me know the phone had arrived. When I received a message asking me how I was enjoying the phone, it was the first indication it was in the shop! All good though.

My order was placed on 30/9 ,supposed to be delivered to the store on 2/10. Still no confirmation ov delivery, nobody has contacted me to say when my order will be in store.
Can’t get through to customer services on the phone. The web chat is full of idiots that never really answer your questions.

Remote support lacking but in-store staff outstanding

I ordered a laptop and charger online to pick up on a Thursday. I waited until 5pm on the day of pick up and was still yet to receive an email confirming my product was ready to collect. I rang the Curry's central number and was advised it would be ready by the Friday (when I was not availabile for pick up) and was advised to contact the store directly. They were unable to give me this number.

It turned out that there was no number available for contacting the store directly and I instead had to be connected to a video call with a salesperson. They advised my laptop should be ready no later than 5pm but could not confirm this.

I went to the store hoping the laptop would be ready. I was helped and advised brilliantly by Lizzie. She apologised for the lack of communication from Currys and sorted out the fact that the charger had not arrived with the laptop. She also helped me to select extra accessories for the laptop such as an external CD drive. Her professionalism and courtesy were outstanding and I wish I could give her a separate review to my overall experience as she was easily a 5-star employee.

Overall, I was unimpressed by Curry's telephone and internet support and their lack of communication, but very impressed by the in-store assistance at the Selly Oak branch.

So disappointed with the salesman who saved us today 27/9@ 15:30. Very rude young man, no greeting tried to give my ref as normal he did not want it but wanted to know what I had ordered I said the ref will tell you what I ordered and he said it’s not how you do it. I have always shown the salesman my ref and got my parcels that’s way. we argued about my name, my surname was the name to him no wonder he could not see my parcel. Muthi did not want to take the reference number gave him my name he could not get it came back for the second time now demanded my initial. Muthi you are a let down to Curry’s lovely staff who are always willing to help. Good luck to your rude and your abrupt salesman skills

Great service from Sylvester

Sylvester at your Selly Oak store was so knowledgeable and helpful. Choosing a new TV is pretty difficult with so many different choices and features. Sylvester patiently explained things and made the experience very pleasant. Thank you so much, Sylvester!

We needed a washing machine

We needed a washing machine. The one we wanted would take 10 to 28 days to arrive ( not exseptable ) so we choose a different one. We paid more for the alternative one and the £25 we paid to take the old one away is scandalous ( RIP Off ). You should address this matter
