Good afternoon,

We would like to thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience with us.

We are sorry to learn you were unhappy with any advise provided by our service team and felt you were given the incorrect information. On you initial call it was deemed from the report given that the best resolution would be to have one of our service engineers, contact you over the phone, as we believed this would be the quickest way to resolve the matter to ensure you could start using your appliance. It appears on this service call the matter was sadly unable to be resolved and the suggestion to contact the manufacturer was given. It appears you made a further call and from this it was understood you were going to call them to see if they could resolve the matter.

I can confirm should the matter not have been resolved or you are unhappy with the outcome of any visit please do not hesitate to contact us and we can look into this further for you.

Kind regards
Sarah

Will now try Hughes first for appliances.

It was all good especially the arranging of the delivery. Another company I purchased from made charges of over £40 for a quick delivery, a particular day or time.
Hughes not so.

Competitively priced.

Competitively priced. Had new fridge freezer delivered in a matter of days. Very happy with the service of Hughes.
Only down point was the delivery guys didn't want to take the packaging away, which we had paid for, but did eventually.

I have been loyal to Hughes for many years but will now reconsider my options following a very disappointing delivery so called service.…

I have been loyal to Hughes for many years as they have always been professional helpful & competitive with their prices. I brought my new appliance the washing washing online &still expected Hughes to be responsible for the delivery but on this occasion &I expect in the future they had franchised the delivery out to another Company of which I found most disappointing. They were late with NO apology! My delivery was set between 10 &1! I got an abrupt call at 1245 informing me they would be around another 40minutes traffic pending! NO apology! Arrived at 1325! We're unprofessional! Rushed! NO conversation! &as they set to depart I said is the machine now ready to use then??!! I'm paying near on £80 for this so called service of delivery taking away the old machine packaging &plumbing in!!!! Yes ready to use!!!! Off they went & when I then went outside my property some 40minutes later they had left my gate to my property wide open!!!!! I will next time reconsider using Hughes for my electricals after this disappointing delivery!

Good afternoon,

We would like to thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience with us.

We do apologise the delivery service provided fell short of what you were expecting and have experienced previously via our own Hughes delivery crews. Please be advised in order to provide sooner delivery dates to a wider range of customers within the UK, we do ship items via a number of chosen courier companies. However, should you wish in future to purchase from Hughes and would prefer for us to delivery the item, we would request you to contact our sales team and place the order with them directly, so they can ensure the item is delivered by a Hughes crew as we would certainly like to retain you as a loyal Hughes customer.

We do understand you were not happy with the overall delivery experience, however, we do hope you are enjoying your new purchase and should you have any concerns please do not hesitate to contact our service team.

Kind regards
Sarah

Top Quality Experience of Hughes Electrical

I have used Hughes in the past and had great experiences with the helpful customer services team on several occasions – which is why I came back to them to buy this TV.

The LG Oled TV was a top recommendation with a major consumer ranking website, so I was glad it was stocked by Hughes.

The TV itself seems to offer an impossibly perfect picture with a sense of immediacy and "cosiness". The latter has been likened to a "soap opera effect". When I'm watching a thriller or horror film, I don't actually want that warm, familiar sense of cosiness, I want something more objective and distancing. This also applies to, for example, James Bond films. I want to feel the tension and the threat. Somehow, the experience of watching this TV set does not properly deliver that.

As such, I have spent a long time tweaking the picture settings which includes turning the sharpness right down, turning off the equivalent of "tru-motion" (which I understand adds extra frames, artificially), and turning off the AI picture control, etc.

I am not sure I will keep the TV at the moment, though I may give Hughes a ring to see if they have further suggestions as to settings...

One of the reasons I bought it is that it has four HDMI ports which I need for older DVD and blu-ray players, plus a soundbar. These were fairly easy to set-up.

So, although there is some disappointment, consternation and frustration with the TV itself, I have no criticism about the Hughes buying and delivery experience, and their website, itself, is a joy to use.

Good afternoon,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

We are sorry for the confusion in relation to your initial email and the misunderstanding in relation to the part you were informing us had not arrived when the item was delivered.

We are apologise that the process for missing parts from the manufacturer is not easier, as we are unable to order one directly from them to supply to yourself. If you should have any further issues with them supplying the missing part, please do let us know via email and we will assist further to ensure the matter is resolved.

Kind regards

Wrong delivery details

When I bought the fridge/freezer I set my new address as the delivery address and yet somehow Hughes managed to incorporate my old and new address in the same delivery adress details. But used my old address post code. This caused me having to move this fridge to my new home myself. And I paid for unwrapping too which I told them to NOT do as I have to move the fridge to a new location. It was extremely disappointing!!!!

Good afternoon,

We appreciate you taking the time to share the experience with us and we are sorry to learn of the situation, you have raised in your review.

We can advise looking into this matter further, we can only see one postcode was provided on the details passed to us when you were checking out and can only assume this altered when you were filling in the delivery details on the website as both 1st delivery lines were provided on the delivery address details. The details were checked on your order confirmation and only one address appears to be present and we assume this was your old address and is the reason why the item was not delivered to the address you were expecting.

Please be advised if contact had been made with us, we would have been able to assist in getting the item delivered to the correct location. In light of the situation I have arranged for a refund to be issued for the delivery and unpack service.

Please be advised if you do wish to contact us to discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact us. We do hope now you have you appliance you are happy with it.

Kind regards

My 83 year old Dad ordered a cooker & a washing machine to rent in store .
All processed delivery date arranged no real questions asked in store about where the goods were positioned.
Apparently there is supposed to be a survey done by Hughes to see if the placement of the white goods are suitable for health & safety .
My dad was contacted the day before by phone but couldn’t answer as he was at a hospital appointment.
Delivery driver turned up this morning .
Cannot fit washing machine as cable not long enough to reach plug & also valve not working properly.
Cannot fit cooker as too near a window & sink .
So my 83 year old dad who is a 24/7 carer for my mum has no cooker .
My point is that this is such a waste of time /money for both the customer and Hughes . They were supposed to deliver goods & walked in humiliated my Dad saying nothing was good enough even though we had had the cooker socket moved & replaced .
So they literally put everything back on the van after they had photographed & reported everything.
So if you rent from them be prepared that nothing is good enough & you will end up with no goods

Good afternoon,

We appreciate you taking the time to share the experience with us, this will help us to better learn and improve our services.

We do apologise for any inconvenience caused in relation to the issues with the installation services of the appliances requested to be rented and that this prevented the completion of the delivery on the day. Please be advised as we do not have direct details to look into this matter further, I do hope the issue has now been resolved. However, if not, I would ask for you to please contact us with email with full details of the rental account so we can assist further, should this be required.

It certainly would not be our intention to cause any customer to feel humiliated and I do hope this matter can be resolved, should it not already have been.

Kind regards
