“We spent £269 last week in lighting and bulbs in the Clacton-on-Sea branch. We had an electrician into our place of business on Sunday to install the lights and he found one of the chandeliers to be broken. I took it back to store for an exchange and Michelle the customer service person was so rude. I only wanted a product exchange not my money back. The lights were not good quality for the money but we did not feel we could do anything about it after the first return was so difficult. I would not recommend b&q due to this experience.”

“An assistant by the name of Mark at the Speke branch in Liverpool was very helpful. I had purchased some ply board and needed it cutting to size. Mark advised me on how it would best be cut in order to fit in my car and yet still be fit for purpose. Thank you Mark. My life was made so much easier and the board still did the job. You went above and beyond the 'call of duty.'”

“There was a positive response from Dylan at Customer Services when my delivery was delayed a day. He was keen to address my concerns and promised to pass them on to the relevant departments. This restored my faith in the company and I would look to use them again.”

“I ordered a uPVC front door online as did not have stock in store. Door delivered on time, but when fitted vent was snapped and had two right hand sill caps. Emailed to request replacement parts. Took two weeks to get a reply. Could not send parts would need to have a new door delivered, take out parts and they would take door back. New door delivered, but delivery driver did not do collections, so door left with me. Phoned to arrange collection. So will have wasted two days waiting for delivery and collection. New door also had two right hand sill caps. Phoned again, told could email supplier but could take weeks to get sorted. I suggested I buy end cap and they pay me. Agreed would phone me at 10am next day, phoned at 10.52 am, so missed call. I can not be bothered any more, wasted so much time. Feel like leaving door outside on Friday and if it goes missing not my problem. Abysmal customer service.”

“As a professional builder for 25years and more I'm sick and tired of problems with b&q . From constant faulty goods , lying to customers to sell their latest rubbish, being told by staff to touch open wires to test electrics. The list I have is endless. Anybody buying from this company is a fool and will almost surely have to more than double the normal fitting costs due to the poor standard of staff advise and terrible products. You get what you pay for and that is why b&q is the lowest end of tat .”

“Wrong flooring delivered, had to go to store and buy the right flooring costing another £100. No refund until item returned. Had to wait in all day for collection. Appalling customer service and very unhelpful”

“Shoddy workmanship. Do not employ B&Q Homefit. This is the worst company I have ever had to deal with and their customer services is non-existent. Once they have your money they couldn't care less. In my view, they are not even worth the one star I have given them.”

“Bolton Branch. Went in for product and asked where to find it. Got pointed to an aisle but couldn’t find the product. Asked again for assistance (when I eventually found some staff) and got pointed in different location. Still no sign of product so asked again (again, when I eventually found a member of staff) and politely requested showing me where the product was located. Judging by the huff and pulled face, assisting customers wasn’t part of this certain employees job scope. Gave up and ordered off amazon.”

“1. ordered a product for a 2 day delivery, turned up on time, wrong colour and type of radiator! 2. phoned the customer services immediately and told it was too soon to report and exchange, please phone back tomorrow! 3. phone back 1st thing in morning and told that the exchange would be done and I should get a confirmation of delivery. 4. phone back following day as not received confirmation, sorry its not been ordered, will do it now. 5. phone on following morning and still not ordered, sorry customer services will call you within 2 hours and sort it all out. phone back later that day and low and behold radiator still not ordered. it is now ordered on exchange and will be delivered exactly 1 week after it should have been delivered and could still be wrong if the incompetence of B&Q thus far is anything to go by. I have now had to put off tradesmen for another week, I am left as to what will turn up and even when I have requested to speak to a manager I have been fobbed off every time. in my industry that is called GUTLESS! I am disgusted with the treatment of B&Q and will never set foot in their stores ever again because of the way they have handled this situation.”

“Very helpful staff at the Blackburn store this evening. In particular Phil and Omar. I bought lots of plants and compost etc and they were only too happy to help by lifting the heavy items into my car. A credit to B&Q. Many thanks again 😊. Bev”

“fitted by professionals in the few years we have had it none of the drawers or doors fitted as expected. We paid over £5000 for the units excluding worktops sink and tap plus fixing costs.Within months when we started to use the units everything moved the drawers were no more level the doors drooped and proved impossible to put right.I should stress that the units were purchased ready assembled but the four corner units I bought fell apart when we unpacked them and carried them to the kitchen they had just a thin layer of glue holding them together. As the fitters were there they screwed the units together so they could get on.I told the manager in York about them coming apart not asking or wanting any compensation just informing him of a problem Iwas made to fill like a guilty person well bring them back and we will sort it .So would I buy a new kitchen from .NO WAY”

“To start with major issues with the online ordering system. Errors everywhere. And then when I do get the items in my basket and go to the check out half the order disappears. So I give up and I only ordered a mallet and a paving pack. Was down for next day delivery but I was not to be in. So changed it for a day off. No confirmation email/text sent. They other items I went to collect. Could not find half of the items so asked staff. They confirm they had over 9 showing in stock. Came to look with me. Nope none there. Said they must have sold them. I can confirm this was several days ago and the stock error has not been rectified. So beware when ordering click and collect. Decided to try wicks instead. I waited in the day of order delivery and got a text for delivery time. Then got another text later with a different delivery time which was slightly earlier. I had gone to get something for lunch so had to rush back. When it came I was shocked it was only the mallet. When I rang they said it was from a different supplier and they will get them to contact me. Not gonna hold my breath. So ordering off b&q very frustrating and badly managed on their part. It is defently something I will not be doing again.”

“B&Q Queens Rd Sheffield. Paul on Garden machinery etc. is an absolute Gem of an employee. He goes above and beyond to give information and assistance at every stage whatever one needs. Nothing is too much trouble and is very trustworthy . I just love visiting the store as I know that anything I buy. if there is a problem it is sorted as soon as I return. He should be highly commended by your Company as a very loyal and exemplary Employee”

“Ordered a bathroom via their homefit service. What should have been a 1 week job turned into a 5 week job purely because of B&Q's incompetence. Items were just not delivered, or the wrong items were delivered, or they were broken. The contractors drilled through a gas pipe. The contractors lost our keys. I would happily spend a lot more money next time to just go somewhere else.”
