Hi Geoff

Thanks so much for leaving us a review.

We were sorry to learn of your disappointment at the cost of your recent call to our store. The reason we provide 084 numbers for stores is that they offer additional options and increased functionality that helps us maintain consistent service levels across all of our stores. Regrettably, we do not have control over what additional access fees the various phone providers charge. For this reason we do highlight the additional potential cost to our customers at the beginning of each call stating that "Calls are charged at 7 pence per minute plus your phone company's access charge".

Should you encounter difficulties contacting any of our stores in the future, please feel free to call customer service on 03333 234 754 (Mon-Friday 9am-5pm). We will be happy to assist you regarding product availability in any of our stores. Alternatively, if your query is not urgent you can email us at store.service@hmv.co.uk and we'll respond to your enquiry as soon as possible.

We pride ourselves on the service we offer and we rely heavily on customer feedback in order to move forward and keep improving. We would therefore like to thank you for taking the time to make us aware of your experience.

We did not get e mail telling us the product was in store so had to go down and check. Could not get through to store on phone -no one answered and because it was premium rate cost me alot. Very poor service. We could have used Amazon but wanted to support a local store-this all needs to improve to use again.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. 

We were sorry to hear that you did not receive updates when your order arrived in store and for any disappointment. 

We would recommend contacting our service team directly regarding any order issues via our contact us form at support.hmv.com, as stores may be busy helping customers in store and unable to answer as quickly. 

We're glad to hear however that you are now in receipt of your parcel and hope you enjoy your purchase.
