Visited today 6/10/25 at 17.30 to look at the difference in TVs to be meet with a very knowledgeable man who took his time explaining the difference and showing us. Did not buy anything as the tv was 4 grand and that’s something to think over but when I decided exactly which one I want I will be bac.
Staff were knowledgeable regarding laptops which is a positive when you're not up to speed with latest technology. A good range of to choose from.
Very helpful staff both in the Lincoln & Newark Branch !! Only had 1 day to purchase and install a cooker, they had exactly the model I needed and £40 off !! Thank you !!
Went in with a specific accessibility request about TVs and was initially approached by a woman who asked if we needed any help. I told her my needs and rather than try to find someone who knew what they were talking about she googled the issue and then told me about subtitles like they were a new invention. I had a fairly good understanding of my options but wanted to be certain that I was making the right choice. Despite clearly knowing nothing about the technology (using dual audio output with hearing aids) she repeatedly tried to tell me things which I then had to correct as I had already done my research. Eventually she put a call out for help and someone who actually knew what they were talking about came over. I didn't feel entirely confident so went away and did some more research with what the second person had said and decided on a TV which wasn't in stock at my local Currys but was at one further away. Before we made the trip I wanted to be sure so we visited again to look at the one on display and were approached by another member of staff who was lovely but barely had the chance to say hello before the woman was back to tell him he was stealing her commission/sale. I cannot imagine someone I would rather give a sale to less to be honest. She insisted on helping us look at the TV but again didn't actually know what she was doing and made things more complicated not less. We went with a Samsung frame tv and it connects to my Bluetooth hearing aids while allowing others to listen using the speakers as well which is great and we got it from the Grantham store instead.
Curry's staff are thoughtful and helpful, just a shame that they have so many restrictions. To many display items are out of stock and nothing they can do, not even sell the display item. 2 (washing machine) of 6 items we managed to get with in 3 days, the other 3 items ( tv, sound bar and fridge freezer, (but the fridge freezer wasn't forest choice either))will delivered in 3 weeks. The kettle and toaster I wanted I didn't bother with as the kettle was in stock, and the toaster was a display, but I could not buy. We went local as my daughter just moving in to an empty house. I'll have to be desperate to shop there again.
Went into Newark store today and was served by Kloe. I have to say she was polite knowledgeable and most of all very helpful. She sorted out my phone installing security. Excellent. She needs a pat on the back.
Very disappointed! Items were ordered which I was told in stock, paid for them, told I could collect next day, email came all ok. Waited 4 days for email ,told cancelled, now waiting for money to be paid back.Took a while for refund but pleasantly surprised to receive a voucher.
Visited 3 different branches of Curry's in order to source the TV I wanted. First I went into on the off chance, waited a long time to speak to anyone, and when I eventually did find someone the TV was out of stock. Fair enough. Check online, drive to the next branch around 30 miles away as website says in stock. Same problem in not being served, wait ages, eventually ask someone who is very displeased to be pulled away from his colleague. He gets me all the way ready to buy before realising that the TV is now out of stock in this store too. Finally went to the 3rd store, another 30 odd miles away. SAME PROBLEM in not being served. When a man finally does, he could not be less interested in the fact I'm trying to spend £1800, and just wants me to have the warranty. Finally got my TV though, and a young lad brings it to my car on a dolly. He looks at my car, decides himself that it won't fit, even though I've measured it myself and know it will. He proceeded to refuse to help me load it into the car on the basis that he didn't want to break anything, and just watched me struggle on my own to do it and leave. Will not be going back to a Curry's any time soon.
