Dixons Reviews

A year ago my CD player literally blew up. I don't and wouldn't, unlike maybe Esther Rantzen or Anne Robinson might have done, blamed it on Dixons (probably because it didn't come from there...). Natural wear and tear I guessed, and so I decided to buy a new one. In my naivety, I thought that I would go to 'Dixons', after ...  Read the complete review

I am so glad that I took out the extra cover insurance when I bought my PC from Dixons. After a little umming and ahhing I decided to take the four years extra cover on top of my one year warranty. It definitely bumped up the cost of my loan to get the pc but it was definitely worth it. After one and a half years manic use by my five ...  Read the complete review

I think Dixons is probably the west electrical retailer in the western world. They have extremely high prices and extremely low customer service. The advice given by members of staff is always very poor and often inaccurate. I hate Dixons so much that I will often go in just to cause the sales staff misery. If I asked them what does DVD ...  Read the complete review

OK i sorted of mucked up this opinion. (Hey i'm new here.) So. Hi I work for dixons. Not on the sales side, but in the wharehouse of my store. Now i know what you are going to say. "Oh look someone from Dixons trying to tell us they are great." Wrong i'm hear to comment on what you all say. First thing is in response to some of ...  Read the complete review

When I have shopped at Dixon's, I have generally been happy with the price, the selection and the service. However, I have stopped shopping there for one simple reason - their pushy staff! Now I fully realise that the staff earn extra money if they can sell an extended warranty, so I don't blame them for trying to persuade people ...  Read the complete review

I have tried to shop at Dixons many times but have succeeded very rarely. Why is it so difficult, well it seems that any item advertised in the newspaper,catalogue,window or even on the shelf is out of stock. The most memorable half an hour spent in Dixons was attempting to buy a printer diplayed on the shelf with a £30 discount. ...  Read the complete review

Long ago in my dark and distant past I was a Tandy salesman. It came as something of an embarrassment when I took the job as the month before I’d sat on a long coach journey and a bloke from a Birmingham Tandy store. He had spoken at length to me and being an arrogant student at the time I’d been very dismissive of Tandy and the ...  Read the complete review

I don't shop a lot in Dixons but now and again I will see some great bargin that I just have to have. The shop near me is small. All the other electrical shops around here are a lot bigger so I tend to go there as there is more variety. My only purchase was this pc that I am using now. We didn't intend to get a pc when we ...  Read the complete review

However annoying the television adverts may be, I find that Dixons is a relitivley good store, if you know what you're looking for, but do not know where to start. Where I live, there are not that many 'great' electrical chain stores that sell 'everything' under that catergory. There are the usual Currys and a lot of ...  Read the complete review

I just happened to wonder down the streets of Bristol today, I walked past many a shop searching for a present for Mother's day. On the off chance I happened to wonder past Dixons, and I thought: "Oh yes, I need to look for that remote control for my mp3 player, I wonder if Dixons sell it" The answer was of ...  Read the complete review

Fantastic, Low cost, Friendly staff...these are just a few of the comments that never get mentioned in the same sentence as Dixons. A bit harsh maybe, but it seems that the high street electrical retailer is quite happy to live up to all it's critics comments. Dixons sell electrical goods at (what they believe to be) competitive ...  Read the complete review

I'm not actually praising dixons here, although the title suggests so.. They are good for prices, they do have special offers, they do look pretty, they do have a nice website, but all thats no bloody good if they don't have the product that you want in stock! They may have hundreds (or thousands) of products, but the ...  Read the complete review

Dixons may not be the cheapest electrical store around, but it is nevertheless very good. You can walk into a high street branch, and notice how well it is set out. The products are in specific areas, and there is plenty of space. They sell a wide range of products from games consoles to Pc's, TV's to HiFi's. They ...  Read the complete review

Where should I start. My family have only ever bought two things from dixons, back in the early nineties we bought an Amiga, it was faulty throughout its first year, and we asked for a refund, but they were quite keen just to repair it, multiple times. It was working fine for the last couple of months of the first year. But soon after the ...  Read the complete review

For the past two years my mother has been going to Dixons to buy electrical appliances like CD systems, TV’s, mobile phones and personal stereos. My mothers not good with this kind of stuff so she always asked for advice and the staff are happy to assist. My mother would show them the product that she liked and they would spend ...  Read the complete review

I recently wrote this letter to T3 magazine in my attempt to voice my frustration with Dixons plc. I am quite lazy to rewrite the whole damn thing again (I am pissed) so here's my copy and paste: Dear T3, I am writing in to express my deep frustration over Dixons lack of commitment for its customers. One of Dixons ...  Read the complete review

I bought my new computer from Dixon's and I am very happy with it. It did not cost too much and came with lots of extras like a printer and a webcam. This in particular was important, as I needed it to talk with my girlfriend in Greece. The computer worked fine as I had some help from a friend of mine who knows about these things to set it up. ...  Read the complete review

A few weeks ago i purchased a new computer from Dixons with no expense spared. I also bought a scanner separately as it didn't come with the computer. I got it all home and had it all set up apart from the scanner. So i get the scanner out of the box and get the installation disks out and begin the proccess of installing. After about ...  Read the complete review

Dixons is neither here nor there. One minute you will find a great deal for a great price, the next you'll be cursing their confusing and un-willing staff. That basically sums up the shop - but of course I can't just write that for my opinion. Credit must go to Dixons for having a such a rage of products in store, they have a ...  Read the complete review

I have a friend who works at Dixons so when I went shopping I went to see her. My view of Dixons is that it’s a great electrical shop with some excellent electrical appliances and a wide variety of other goods but it’s to expensive. However, I was pleasantly surprised at the wide variety of gifts they had and believe it or ...  Read the complete review
