Incredible. Useless. Ordered a bathroom from Harlow store and everything went wrong. Drawings done to wrong size, 2 week delivery promised then told it was 6 weeks. Made to place(and pay for) same products twice. 2 baths on first order. These were cancelled as delivery date too late and never delivered. A credit of over £900 is due and has not been received despite calls to store and customer service. Currently considering legal action. Will never use B & Q again

I ordered 24 boxes of floor tiles, they were delivered today as expected but only 20 boxes ! One phone call to HQ (after lengthy hold in queue) explained the problem and suggested I would be happy to visit my local store and collect 4 boxes in my car. Another lengthy wait while they phoned the store. Hooray - I just need to go to the customer service desk, state my name and the tiles will be there. Problem 1. CS knew nothing about this on my arrival, eventually found someone who did know and was given 2 boxes. When I asked where the other 2 boxes were, they said they were only told to supply 2 boxes. Problem 2. Manager called for, 'someone' eventually arrived to offer 4 boxes provided I bought them and left the sorting out till later - when I said I had already paid for them they said 'its the best we can do' - I blew my top, left and returned home. Problem 2. Phoned HQ again, another lengthy wait, advised 16 minute wait so I accepted the automated offer of a call back, this, once done would be actioned within 4 hours, so back on the phone again with another lengthy delay. Eventually the call back over rode my phone call and yet another lengthy delay whilst they 'contacted my local store'. The bottom line was 4 boxes were now waiting my return. They were and all sanity has now returned to my household.

Yvonne from Wakefield store was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of advice on our new wardrobes. She created a 3D image of how our wardrobes are going to look once assembled.

Called to repair a ceiling where the client attempted DIY repair. He told me b&q advised him after showing them pictures. There were cement fibre boards on the ceiling fixes with 15mm screws. Completely wrong and more expensive. They sold him a rendering float to skim the repair. What a disgraceful service costing the client more money and would not of be able to make the repair based on their advise. Fraud is the only way to discribe their behaviour. Obtaining money by deception. Good Professionals don't go to b&q for a reason

B&Q Killingbeck Leeds. Absolutely disgusting excuse for customer service, dirty looks and lack of basic customer service skills from both the manager of the store and staff working the tills. Rude and incompetent!

We put our own b&q kitchen in over a 6mths. Tim & Shelby at ravenside b&q were absolutely brilliant. We are oaps & i am disabled but they talked us through all the things we asked. We are very pleased with the quality of the product and the service we received

Never ordering from B&Q again. Ordered bedroom furniture and when I did so everything was in stock. A month later my furniture was delivered minus wardrobe doors. After numerous phone calls being fobbed off bu different people, tonnes of empty promises of delivery dates, and the inconvenience of having to take time off work unnecessarily I have now been told the doors won't be delivered till Christmas and even then it's not guaranteed. Everytime I phone customer service I have been on hold for half hour or more. Been told someone will ring back on two occasions and nobody did. I just keep getting apologies and being told they understand. Clearly having no doors is the new in thing. Wouldn't get a car without doors. Avoid avoid avoid not worth it

Today I was very luckily supported by Deb Palmer from the Lighting Department in B&Q Longwell Green Branch. Lighting purchases are becoming much more complicated with such specific and expensive light bulbs. I was fortunate that Deb took me through the specifications I needed for the bathroom light and then the options bulb type and colour tone. She was bright and cheerful throughout and offered fantastic customer support, to the point that I took her name for this review. I purchased 4 lots of lighting and bulbs and was happy with the help I received, I am completely confident with my purchases. Great Customer Care, Support and real interest in meeting my needs...

Spent nearly £10k over a few weeks on new kitchen and flooring. 1.7 tonnes delivered in one delivery alone. The deliveries (checked out by the drivers) filled the garage and we couldn't get to most of it until the flooring had been laid. Some fairly crucial bits of our order were missing. 4 trips and so many calls to b and q last weekend should have resolved it. We were left standing in customer services for over 15 minutes on the last trip and no one served us. We were then sent to kitchens and the staff eventually served us (no one else in sight so not sure why we were kept waiting there also.) The kitchen has now started to be fitted and b and q won't deliver the missing items for 2 weeks apparently due to the couriers being all booked. They won't emergency ship out with another firm to correct their error either, nor deliver to a store for collection? Why???? They won't let you complain (had to ask 10 times to speak to a manager when calling in to ask for the delivery to be bought forward) and the managers don't seem to care either (in fact they had the stupidity to ask why we didn't check our order sooner ** couldn't swing a cat** vacated for major renovations** ) ..... our kitchen fitters will have a 2 week wait unless we purchase some of the items from elsewhere Ridiculous... terrible service.... we do not recommend and will certainly be taking our spend elsewhere by voting with our feet.... this has been a farce from start to finish....you should get your acts together!

Been a regular customer at b and q for years and spent some serious money during that time. I recently bought some outside spotlights that are spiked àr the bottom so they can be inserted into the ground. I purchased these about June/ July of this year and the wiring plan was quite meticulous and time consuming. Anyway, one of the lights has failed, in as much as there is a build up of Moisture inside one of the lights, causing a trip out on the circuitry. My problem is that without proof not purchase b and q will not entertain my complaint going forward. In future, I will photocopy all receipts and hard copy them to my hard drive. Very frustrating b and q!

B and Q continues to go down hill. Not only has their range of stock been dropping over the past year or so, their wood is some of the worst quality of any DIY shop. Today went into B and Q Farnborough to find they have taken out all their self service tills and one 1 out of 5 tills open take cast. All the rest have great big signs in front of the saying Card Only. Is this a shop? Do they want us to shop with them or not? I feel this is the end of B and Q will be avoiding shopping with them in the future. After all they obviously don't want my money

Wasted 2 hours to select flooring with one of their representatives. The flooring was on display. During payment, he found out that flooring is not in stock. Then went for another flooring which was on display and he mentioned that it will be delivered within 14 days when tried to pay for that nearest delivery date was after 28 days. The whole process took me 3 hours and end up buying nothing.

Door delivered was wrong size ...replacement out of stock . After 3 weeks still waiting to have the wrong door collected and have my money refunded..4 phone calls and 1 returned phone call from the duty manager...absolutely discussed with the abysmal service I have had....can only hope this week they will collect the door and refund my money ....I'm a single parent on limited funds and need to still buy a door elsewhere ...and cannot take another day from work to sit and wait for nobody to come .shameful company and would never spend a single penny with them again .
