Dixons Reviews

Dixons is one of the biggest high street electrical retailers in the country. It is also one of the poorest. They seem to employ people that do not have much of an interest in the things they sell. They are more interested in pushing the extended warranties rather than learning anything about the products that they sell. Ask a question about an ...

Dixons is one of the main electrical retailers in most High Streets and out of town shopping centres yet it is one of the shops that most people complain about. I have to say that I regularly look in Dixons if i have a few minutes to kill but I have never bought a thing from there. I think that it is due to their expensive prices and poor customer ...

I don't like Dixons much because they don't have a very big range of anything and I can never find an assistant who can do anything but 'hard sell'. They did have what looked like a bargain printer in their window so I decided to purchase it. When I got it home I couldn't install it. I determined eventually that the ...

I really try to avoid these shops but sadly their dominance means that you have little option. As a general electrical store I guess they are okay. The problem is they do offer some high tech stuff and often know only a fraction more than the customer. If you are just looking for a vacuum cleaner, tumble drier, or equivalent product, then I ...

Dixons deals in electrical goods, from tvs, videos, dvds, hifis, washing machines, kettles etc, it has it all. They are all over the country and claim to offer very competitive pricing and a price matching scheme to ensure this. So, what are they really like?? In the city centre in Exeter where I live we are very limited for electrical ...

Would you like to hear of a really amusing account of my experience with dixons? then read on. Just remember that if you stick to your guns most shops will change damaged or unwanted items for you. Back in october I bought a casio mini tv from dixons at the cost of 79.99. This was for a Birthday present for my siter. her birthday is ...

I recently had need to order something online from the Dixon's website and boy do I wash I hadn't. The website is excellent - I have no gripes there, the goods are easy to find, well described and the ordering process is very simple. However .... The item wasn't suitable for my needs therefore I had to ...

If you work in a city centre, or near any large retail development, there is no better way to fill an empty lunch hour (apart a swift pint or two!) than to go into a branch of Dixons and ask the staff a technical question. It's really entertaining. Examples - Q:"Why should I get a widescreen TV?" A:"because the pictures ...

Shopping at Dixons. This must be one of the biggest no no's in shopping for electronics today. It seems that Dixons service is exceptional reight up to the point of sale,however once they have your money, you are bound be tight ropes, literally. i bought a hi fi system from them a year ago, i have had nothing but problems with it, ...

I have to say I am not a great fan of Dixons, on the other hand I do not totally hate them, because sometimes they do come in handy for those little electronics that they may have a few quid cheaper than anywhere else. Although, if you intend to go in for a browse round, take a walkman or other device that prevents hearing as this really ...

To me, Dixons serve a purpose. They are a convenient store to visit as there are lots of them, and even the smaller ones stock a range of products, not a wide range, but a bit of everything. They are OK as long as you know what you want. I have recently been shopping for a computer and have found the staff there to be, shall we say less ...

Having looked through some great opinions on the different DvD's available to buy I decided to search the net and buy one that tickled my fancy at a good price and one that recieved great reviews on dooyoo. So I followed the dooyoo link to dixons (amoung others, all equally as bad), I entered their main website and decided to look for ...

Now part of a group which includes Currys and the computer store PC World. Get your electrical wants from here at a reasonable price. My son bought a phone from here at the weekend and when he got it home the charger wasnt working. When he took it back not only did they change this but full marks to Dixon on the ...

Most people have only one telephone line, so if you are like me and spend a bit of time on the net, you are bound to miss calls. Well, you can either buy a caller display phone, have your mobile switched on by the side of you and receive SMS messages or......... buy a gadget that flashes and beeps, alerting you when someone is ...

Last week whilst browsing, we saw an amazing stereo with DVD at the Slough branch of Dixons..... We actually purchased a new Video Recorder there, (my review of this will be on later this week) but were asking about this Technic's Stereo. We didn't really understand a word the assistant was saying due to the smacking of ...

I could very easily sum this opinion up in 4 words "Don`t shop at Dixons". However DooYoo.com wants at least 75 words, so lets give some good reasons why you shouldn`t even set foot in Dixons. First of all the staff - I have NEVER seen a member of staff at Dixons who knows what they are talking about. If yuo know anything ...

I like dixons, because their prices are obviously still too high especially when it comes to pcs, yes they have dropped, but not far enough. My guess is its because their sales staff are on commission or bonuses, now where do i get that from you may ask. I have bought several items from dixons including my pc and i have found if you pay ...

What I dislike about Dixons, and its sister shops like The Link, is the way they try and sell things to you. It's high pressure, I suppose because they're on commission. When I went into The Link, the salesman didn't try to find out what I wanted from a phone and why I was using it. He was just interested in pushing the fact that their ...

I went into Dixons store in my local town to buy a portable tv and i was disapointed by the staff. I saw one that said on it it was a managers special and was £10 cheaper than normal. I asked the assistant what a managers special was. He told me they were clearing there stock and it was perfect. He said he head more in the back in ...

The more I talk to people about Dixons the more I don't like them. The staff must have all been trained by Delboy. Having bought a phone from my local Dixons I was offered a box which when connected to BT would chanel my calls through Cable and Wireless. I asked them that if when i got home I did not want to use the box did I have to do ...
