Great start, disappointing after-sales service

I purchased two sofas on 05/05/26 after considering SCS alongside two other suppliers. I chose SCS/Poltronesofà partly because I had bought from SCS previously and wanted to remain loyal.

I should say that Ann, who initially served me, was brilliant. She was helpful, professional and gave me a very positive experience when making the purchase. Unfortunately, what has happened since has completely changed my impression.

When I called on 27/07/26 to check the delivery, I was told it had been delayed until 19th August. There was no apology. Instead, I was told, “If you’ve waited 13 weeks, waiting another two weeks is nothing.” I found this dismissive and unacceptable.

I visited the branch again today, but rather than acknowledging my frustration, staff defended the situation and insisted the delay was “not their fault.” Regardless of where the delay occurred, I bought from your company and expect your staff to take ownership of the customer experience. From today's visit, I've now been informed that delivery is towards end of August. WHY?

Delays can happen, but the lack of apology, empathy and ownership has turned this into a very disappointing experience. Ann provided excellent service initially, but sadly the experience since then has left me regretting my decision to remain loyal to SCS/Poltronesofà.

I expected better service from you.

Good Afternoon,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking your time to leave us a 2* review.

I am sorry to hear that your experience following your purchase has not matched the positive service you received from Store when placing your order.

I understand how disappointing it must be to have received revised delivery information after making your purchase, particularly when you feel you were not given the level of explanation or apology you expected.

As set out in our terms and conditions, the estimated arrival date provided on the order confirmation is an approximate date, and delivery can take place within four weeks either side of that date. We appreciate that this may not be the outcome you were hoping for and recognise that, regardless of the reason for a delay or change to the expected timeframe, clear communication and empathy are important and are sorry that the responses you received left you feeling that your concerns were being dismissed rather than properly addressed.

I hope you enjoy your sofas when they arrive.

Kindest,

Chesterfield store .we decided to go…

Chesterfield store .we decided to go into store as we were passing and it’s been completely re vamped. The store is lovely set out and smells amazing . The staff was welcoming. We did ask about the company who had taken over the previous company and was told they are Italian designers and company . so we decided to order a sofa due to this . After we had ordered we received a email with the order . We realised they had ordered the wrong colour .
We called them to tell them they said they will amend the order and offered a £100 reduction in the total cost .
I was concerned about the mix up and it made me less confident about my order .
We returned back to store and raised our concerns . We have paid the deposit but now feel anxious about our purchase and spoke to another team member who was very pleasant . we was told then not only had the wrong colour originally order but the wrong materials
We left the store but my confidence in this company as now gone and I would have liked to cancel my order
I have spoken to the manager of the store on the phone and explained our concerns The manager refused to cancel our order even though it’s not due until the end of October. I was told by him even if you returned to store straight after ordering you still would not be able to cancel .
I found the manager very unprofessional and patronising as he could not understand why I was asking questions where my sofa is been manufactured !
I feel that I have been wrongly sold this sofa they have said it’s an Italian design but not manufactured there . The manager also denied the wrong materials been ordered we have been given conflicting information about things so my trust as now gone in this company . I have tried to email head office and phone them but no email address worked just kept getting them returned and no phone number either you only get 3 options when you call them the only person you can speak too is the store you ordered from . I want to cancel my order and the manager at the store attitude wasn’t great . I have noticed on other reviews people are having the same problem.

Good Afternoon Linda,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking your time to leave us a 2* review.

We’re sorry to hear that you have lost confidence in your purchase following the concerns you have raised regarding the colour and material initially entered on your order.

We understand why receiving an order confirmation containing information you believed to be incorrect would have caused concern, and appreciate that you returned to the store to seek clarification. We are also sorry that your subsequent interaction with the store manager left you feeling that your concerns were not properly addressed.

Our orders are subject to our terms and conditions, including a two-day amendment period from the point of sale. Orders cannot be cancelled, and deposits are non-refundable, in accordance with the agreed terms and conditions.

As there are no order details within your review please can you send a screenshot of your review to socialmedia@poltronesofa.co.uk along with your order number or alternatively your first line of address including post code and we can look into this for you.

Many Thanks,

Lauren - Poltronesofà at ScS

Damaged on arrival, hell to get it rpaired

Delivery driver rang multiple times as couldn’t find my property, in the end asked me to stand outside and wave him down, wouldn’t park outside so had to carry it further then complained about it, then complained I was on the third floor and he only has 15 minutes to get the sofa in and put together, so didn’t think I was getting my sofa delivered, my son then had to help him up the stairs with it. When he finally got the sofa in the apartment and stopped complaining to me, I was very upset to discover that both ends of the sofa had been scuffed the left side very badly we both took pictures and I was informed by the driver don’t worry they will replace it and contact me when they receive his feedback, obviously that didn’t happen so I contacted them sent my photos, I have been contacted by a repairs team, so sofa not being replaced then, who are coming in 12 weeks to cover the left arm, what about the right one???? Aftercare very poor will never use again

Good Afternoon Angela,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking your time to leave us a 1* Review.

We’re sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced with your delivery and the condition of your sofa upon arrival. This is not the level of service we aim to provide.

We’re also sorry that you were left with the impression that the sofa would automatically be replaced and that you subsequently had to contact us again regarding the reported damage. We understand your concerns regarding both areas of the sofa and the timescale for the repair.

As all concerns have to be reported via our contact form in order for there to be a log of the request I am sorry that you were misinformed of this.

I will have this queried with our aftercare team in order to determine why this is only showing one arm to be covered.

Many Thanks,

When we arrived staff approached us without trying to sell straight away, they asked pleasantly what we were looking for and that they would be pleased to help us.
The saleslady, Sandra, was very helpful and gave us all the information that we needed before we bought.
A very pleasant experience and we look forward to getting our furniture.

A suitable single and triple recliner were selected in store with good explanations and advice from the shop assistants. Initially we were told it would take 3 months for delivery, in fact communication was very good and it arrived a week early with ample warning notice. Delivery was a pleasant experience with the suite installed and explained about. All packing was removed by installer. The suite was exactly as ordered. Overall a very good experience.
