Fabienne Close-Coupled Toilet - this toilet is ridiculously designed and to put it bluntly, I will be spending the next few years of my life cleaning excrement from the bowl. It does not allow anyone of any size to have a 'clean drop' into the pan & I will be spending a fortune on toilet brushes! A refund would be the least B&Q can do and also pay for a plumber to install a toilet that is functional. No wonder it is on sale. This has completely ruined my new bathroom refurb. A reply would be helpful from a member of the team please

I have spent over £2,000 at B&Q refurbishing my bathroom and the 'pièce de résistance' should have been the Manrose QF100T extractor fan. However, after l had installed the extractor fan and set the overun timer for 30 minutes, my wife had a shower and subsequently myself, in order test the new extractor fan. Having said this, the bathroom was full of steam and condensation running down the freshly painted upper part of the walls onto the newly tiled portion below. Even after 30 minutes, my bathroom was still full of dripping confederation running down the walls. I had to open the bathroom window to vent the steam out. This product is totally a waste of money and not fit for purpose. I have uninstalled it and shall be taking it back to B&Q for a refund.

The Charlton / Greenwich store is woefully understaffed, and the employees that do show up don't seem to want to DO anything. Today there was a queue of 14 people waiting to pay for goods, and they had ONE cashier on duty (who thought it would be good for customer relations if she had a nice, long chat with everyone about the weather, and if they'd enjoyed Christmas, etc. etc.)! The 'self-checkout' area was closed off, and so many staff walked past the ever-growing queue that we thought we were being set up for a "comedy" TV show. Ludicrous. We went to Wickes (nearby), and spent our £300 there. Great customer service, and both tills were operational, meaning no waiting time. AVOID!!!!

B&Q strike again! Ordered a cupboard to finish off our kitchen before Christmas, it was due to be delivered on Christmas Eve, we waited in all day, but no cupboard. Couldn't finish the kitchen off, maybe it's time you got you're act together B&Q Meir Park, Stoke on Trent, this will be the 8th time we have to visit this store, it's a shame you couldn't take a leaf out of the festival Park B&Q, the staff are brilliant there!

On Wednesday, 19th Dec 2018. Went to buy half a dozen sheets of MDF at the Sutton Store, which I needed cutting. Arrived at 1115, only to find that there was no one to operate the cutting machine and would not be anyone till 1215. Does B&Q only employ one person per store to operate services such as this? Eventually, made a second journey to the store in the afternoon, wasting time and petrol. Sutton is a good 20 - 30mins away from where I live, so an hour wasted plus time in the store. Shambles.

I went to buy some raspberry canes from thje B$Q garden centre. Having selected a healthy pot I took it to the checkout; but it didn't have a price tag or barcode on it, so the girl had to go off and find someone in the garden centre who could price it for her. She came back after a few minutes - having, however, now swapped the pot of canes I was trying to buy for one that was obviously dead. I don't know whether I was more annoyed by the attempt to swindle me or the assumption that I wouldn't know the difference. The 'garden centre' is a joke, because no one who works there knows anything about gardening (or seems to want to). The store as a whole is ill organised and staffed by people who are rude, casual and unhelpful. I would recommend to anyone that they avoid B&Q. It has every appearance, to my mind, of a business on its last legs - and deservedly so.

After checking on-line the required item (Bosch Workshop Radio) was in stock I visited the store to buy, and had hoped to use sixty plus discount card. Could not find item in store asked five different staff members (one told me to go to PC World or Curry's) who were of no help, eventual went to trade counter, computer was checked was told it had never been in stock in store. Also told no UK store had in stock. Left in disgust and on returning home checked on-line were I could order pay and collect. Phoned customer service who agreed that should not be possible, never had this circumstance before. One last try phoned Stevenage store as was a gift for family near there, and was assured they had 7 in stock. I then ordered from Tooled-Up, never will use B&Q again wasted whole day.

Do not buy a kitchen from B&Q, poor customer service, constantly fobbed off with bull.... Some items ordered came in wrong colours, mixed colours or not even come at all, had to go to the store in Meir Park (Stoke on trent) where I tried to complian n was told I needed to phone their help line for complaints, nothing t do with the store, although everything says B&Q on it! Had to keep returning things to the store to get them re-ordered n then find they've missed items off again! This is just a bit of what's gone on, not even an apology, I am do annoyed, this saga has been going on for over 4 weeks n you only have 46 days to fit the kitchen! Never again will I buy from B&Q

Bought two high gloss double wardrobes and a 4 drawer chest, the bottom drawer of the chest is warped and will not shut. In order to put the doors onto the wardrobes, my brother could not do it himself, as the weight of the doors and the fiddly hinges were a nightmare, he had to call in a friend to give him a hand, his friend who just assembled wardrobes from Ikea said he has never seen anything so complicated re the B and Q wardrobes. I will never buy anything from them again. Ikea here I come.

i BOUGHT A SIROCCO INGNITE ROYAL BLACK MANUAL CONTROL INSET GAS FIRE, I WOULD ADVISE NOT TO BUY THIS FIRE, YOU HAVE GREAT DIFFICULTY TURNING THE FIRE ON, BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT GET YOUR FINGERS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE FIRE TO REACH THE CONTROL, YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE FRONT OF THE FIRE OF, WHEN YOU DO TURN IT ON, IT IS A WASTE OF TIME BECAUSE THE HEAT OUTPUT IS TERRIBLE, WHEN YOU COMPLAIN TO B&Q THEY JUST SAY, TAKE THE FIRE OF THE WALL AND WE WILL GIVE YOU A REFUND, THAT DOESN,T HELP WHEN YOU HAVE TO PAY A GAS FITTER TO TAKE THE FIRE OUT, AFTER PAYING FOR IT TO BE INSTALLED AND ALSO PAY A BUILDER TO MAKE A HOLE FOR THE FIRE TO FIT.I HAVE BEEN INTOUCH WITH THE MANUFACTURER BUT NO HELP FROM THEM.

Worst customer service at the coatbridge store. The woman Eleanor who is at the paint part in the store was extremely unhelpful and very unfriendly to say the least. Don't want to go back after this experience. Shocking! If she can't be bothered with her job then don't be!

Chelmsford store is a disgrace with very unhelpful management team and the shop assistant on till 3 this morning (8/12/18) should be sacked!!! The only positive thing there today was Ryan who was working outside netting the Christmas trees!!

Ordered bath and toilet from B&Q online, they took the £750 that day but failed to deliver or contact me within the promised 24 hours. It now transpires that B&Q blame Ideal Standard for the poor customer service. So much for customer satisfaction!!!! I will have to contact Ideal Standard and tell the B&Q think they are a poor customer focused organisation. No idea when my bath and toilet will arrive if ever !!!!!!

Longwell Green I’m Bristol the staff should be ashamed of themselves.
