Absolutely appalling customer service. I purchased a second-hand 2025 MG S5 EV (not from Richmond MG) and, after just one month, experienced the well-known infotainment fault that leaves the radio stuck on a single station. This started in mid-July. As Richmond MG Portsmouth was my local dealership, I contacted them to arrange an appointment. Availability was difficult, particularly as I needed a courtesy car. My initial appointment was pushed back by two weeks for no apparent reason, and I was eventually booked in for mid-September. I arrived at 8am to drop off my car, only to be told that it had been booked into Guildford rather than Portsmouth and that they could not look at it. The customer service assistant was incredibly rude, adopted a very clear “not my fault” attitude and offered absolutely no apology for their mistake. My car was then booked in for the following week. I made it very clear that I required a courtesy car. I arrived for my appointment, the car was booked in and I had paid for the courtesy car insurance, only to be told that they could not find the keys to the courtesy car. No alternative vehicle was provided, leaving me stranded at the dealership and making me late for work. I was subsequently advised that my car needed a replacement radio module. When I asked how long this would take, I was told they could not say, but when I specifically asked whether it could take a month, I was reassured that it definitely would not take that long. A month later, I am still waiting. I have sent numerous emails, made numerous telephone calls (which go unanswered) and submitted a formal complaint. Despite all of this, I have received absolutely nothing in response. Not even an acknowledgement of my complaint. The original fault is frustrating enough, but the complete lack of communication, accountability and basic customer service has made the experience considerably worse. Mistakes happen, but the way a business handles them says everything about its attitude towards its customers. Richmond Motor Group, please do not respond with your standard “we’re sorry to hear about your experience” message telling me to contact customer services. An extremely disappointing experience, and certainly not the level of customer service I would expect from an MG dealership.

I booked a service for a Saturday. When i booked I asked for a courtesy car, which the person said was fine. Got there today to be told they don’t do courtesy cars on Saturday. Advised them of my booking, told they don’t do courtesy cars on a Saturday. Asked to speak with the manager, told they don’t work on Saturdays. Whatever happened to customer care/service?

My parents have used this place for years for buying their car. But after their most recent experience I would steer well away from them. Went in over a year ago to order a car, was told this would be done however we later found out it had never been put on the system and that the car was no longer available on the scheme. My parents not impressed and obviously having not been told until they rang up about it went back over to them to choose a new car. The car they previously had ordered was a hybrid and due to the costing another hybrid would be unattainable for them so need up having to be a normal petrol car again. This obviously starts the issues of my parents losing money which would play out over the three years they would have the car. But they ordered and went on their way after months and months of waiting and delay and absolutely poor customer service today they got their car. They believe ld that after a year of waiting some car mats and a tank of petrol was enough to compensate them even though they lost hundreds of pounds because of them. The customer service has been abysmal and I would recommend everyone to steer clear of them.

I bought a car from here back in August. The car was in lovely condition and it drives really well, I have had no issues with it at all and the dealers have been really helpful and friendly throughout the whole experience. I would definitely recommend this dealership.
