“Good Customer Service”

★★★★☆

written by GauravDhindsa on 27/08/2015

I found these guys pretty helpful. Their team helped me when I needed. they always try to keep their customers satisfied in every sense. Their supportive staff makes them good. I really appreciate. But of you consider them price wise, they are no doubt little costlier than others but yes, I can recommend them for sure as they are good at providing the services. Best for their customers at least. That's the premium brand and their brand itself speaks for them. Any one or two bad review can make or shake any brand, their brand value keeps them at the top. Whatever product I have used, was given good services and I again hereby tell my friends that their customer dealing is really very good.

“High quality and great prices.”

★★★★☆

written by StepheJames2 on 17/08/2015

Everyone is very nice and very helpful. My support manager was always available to assist me. They made sure that I was happy with everything they had done. I can tell you first hand that there are tons of negative reviews out there, and they are all made up by competitors. Very supportive, nice staff, helpful and they know what they are doing. I appreciate you for helping me! Good service with ordering and delivery. Nice done!

“Very poor after sales experience which ignores...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Dan83 on 27/07/2013

Having purchased a Sony VAIO directly from the Sony online store I assumed I was buying into a premium brand and would benefit from the quality and service that should entail. Unfortunately, having only had the VAIO for 6 weeks and only having used it a few times it has become apparent that there is an intermittent hardware fault related to its WIFI. Having searched the forums it appears to be a known and relatively common issue. I advised Sony of my problem and requested a refund/replacement as the machine was not as described or fit for purpose. I received a blunt and impolite response informing me that my only entitlement is to return the laptop to Sony so they can attempt to repair the machine. I am now left having the inconvenience of having to be without the machine and wish I could simply get my money back. I accept that thing go wrong with purchases, but when they do the important thing is how you are dealt with as a consumer. I expect to be dealt with fairly and politely but Sony clearly has other ideas. If I had known prior to purchase how Sony treat their customers when things do go wrong, when you really need a company to step up, I would never have bought a Sony VAIO. Having had these experiences I will not be purchasing any Sony products again.

A few month had gone and the charger didn`t work again mum gave it back and they couldn't fix it they gave me a replacement that was in appauling condition than the original with a loose connection and lot of mark, I defently wont be recommending it to anyone and will be demanding them for my money back, I cant get my money back why it dont have a code with the phone they gave me

“Too Costly ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 11/05/2013

I bought a SONY xpriaV at SONY CENTRE, JURONG POINT, Singapore for $589 on Friday night 9’O clock. For this price, the sales man gave build up that the price is $689 but, now they are giving offer price. I also trusted them and bought a phone. The next morning I went to IMM Singapore with my friend for purchase some thing. On the way I saw SONY STORE at IMM. We entered and just asked them that What is the Price of SONY Xperia V. He told $528 sir. I shocked. Because that lost night I paid $70 more for same phone. Straight away I came back to SONY CENTRE JURONG POINT and I asked them “why this difference”. They replied, “Sir, that is SONY STORE, this is SONY CENTER”. They told the $70 difference is for the WORD- CENTRE and STORE. Any can accept this reason?

“Be careful which shop you go too.”

★★★★☆

written by on 06/11/2012

6 months ago I was looking round everywhere for a Sony Nex 5n camera. I finally decided on Digital Camera Warehouse, but was told their was delays because of flooding in Asia. So I waited for a month, at which time I decided to buy a tv. I went to the Sony Center in Melbourne CDB & found out they were selling as low as half price because of new stock & models coming in. I bought their best Surround Sound System & their best 55 inch LED tv for $2,420, when originally the sound system was $799 & tv $3499, A massive saving. I then said I was interested in the Sony Nex 5n camera & they said they could better the price by $100 & discount the lenses even lower than anyone. All up I paid less than $3,500,instead of more than $6K. I also got extras free, a Skype camera($199), 2 HMDI cords for 3D $79 each) & 2 3D Blu Rays discs! Yes I know they got some great sales that week, but they treated me very well because of it, I recommend them before anyone for Sony gear, getting the camera in faster than anyone also. They also connected me up with their manager of promotions & I have been given entry to events also! After that wonderful story, recently I went to Prahran Sony Center & was treated very badly, like a fool & given the wrong accessories for my camera. He gave me a plastic cover for my touch screen, instead of a foil for quarter the price. Moral of the story, if your buying big make sure you get the right salesperson & buy at the right time of year! I also test the sales by walking round looking & ask questions to test their helpfulness.

“absysmal service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 12/11/2011

I went into the sony centre in Shawlands Glasgow to pick up a sony smart offers claim form as directed by the sony website and was refused it as i had not purchased the item from them. I was told I had to download from their website when i queried that the same website said I could pick it up instore they said they would have to check themselves. When I phoned later to tell them I double checked the website myself they hung up on me even though I was perfectly polite about it I find this behaviour shocking and pathetic and will never go there again and would seriously question buying another sony product again

If you didn't buy from them in the first place, why would you say you will never go back?? I got my TV from them and the claim form they gave me allowed me to choose £100 cash back or £150 of instore vouchers (voucher deal for instore purchases only). I would imagine they couldn't hand out a form offering vouchers if you hadn't purchased in store? I would definetly go back, staff nice and know their stuff! GREAT SERVICE!

“Great products - extremely poor after sales service”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 14/10/2011

The product is great, Sony is a quality product. However, this shop has poor service. Took 4 visits to get my promised 2 year guarantee registered. Promised one year free Mcafee software. Keep getting excuses like we have had to re-order, so you will get it after your free 30 day period has run out - (I'm not confident!)

“I recently bought a Sony Digital Photo Frame at the...”

★★★☆☆

written by Frosteee on 20/07/2010

I recently bought a Sony Digital Photo Frame at the Sony Centre in Putney. I've never bought a product from a Sony Centre before as it always seem expensive but their current sale (July 2010) seems to offer better value thatn some online specialists.

The shop in Putney is nicely laid out and the products look great. Sadly you can't try all the products as a few are hidden in glass display cabinets.

The staff are reasonably attentive and polite but definitely there to make a sale - certainly not in the same league as the Apple store staff who seem all about customer service. Staff knowledge was lacking when I asked a question about the different frames on offer and why one was reduced and the other wasn't - I expected them to say the reduced one was the old model but they just shrugged their shoulders to say 'dunno'.

As soon as I decided I wanted it they were in that storeroom like greased lightning.

I wouldn't hold the store up as a beacon of great customer service but the deal was good and the products were accessible. It was also ten times better than going into Currys Digital!

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 26/10/2008

My personal experience was with Sony Centre Oxford - woeful after sales support - fobbed off left right and centre. Promises of help, promises that things were being sorted out - then and many telephone call later " nothing! I can't vouch for other Sony Centres but I will never darken the doors of Oxford's Sony Centre and I'd advise the same to anyone thinking of buying there. Try Richer Sounds or Dixons.

Richer Sounds pride themselves in good pre and after sales service, I ' ve purchased there on several occasions and been very satisfied, I only wish I ' d gone back on this occasion.

“I visited the new Cheltenham branch yesterday - to be...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Mark rhe Harp on 07/10/2008

I visited the new Cheltenham branch yesterday - to be kept waiting ages while three staff were apparently not busy enough to do anything useful but too busy to serve me. When I finally got served, i was told that the item I wanted was "in the shop downstairs". I didn't realise that the shop had two levels as I entered the arcade on the first floor - there was nothing in the shop to suggest there was another part of the store (not even a staircase - you have to go out, down the escalator and then back a long to the downstairs version of the store).

That left me feeling both ignored and stupid, and when I pointed this out to both the staff upstairs and downstairs, I was given no apology or acknowledgement that this was in any way something they might be concerned about.

I've been very loyal to the Sony brand (still am) but their customer service on this occasion really stinks.

“Every now and again I loose myself in a long gaze,...”

★★★★☆

written by on 19/12/2007

Every now and again I loose myself in a long gaze, full of desire and wanting behavior at the Manchester Sony Centre. I'd love to go in one day and just spend like 2000 or 3000 pound on a good home cinema system, get it installed and just blast some great action movie or concert out of it at home ... but with the prices at Sony it will probably remain just one thing: a dream.
