“Due to lockdown thought I would do the sensible thing and order on line. Big mistake people. Ordered 4 in stock items, day before delivery received an email telling me one item wasn't in stock. A subsequent refund of £4 was given. Delivery day arrives and the out of stock item was different . Its value was £36. Numerous phone calls to staff who were polite and helpful resulted in me having to drive to another store to pick up the missing item. I'm hoping that they now sort out the correct refund. I'm not holding my breath. Come on B&Q, you can do better than this.”

“Customer of B&Q Portsmouth. First of all, Jacob Dampney was absolutely amazing, despite all the odds being stacked against him. He deserves to be employed by a really cool company who will pay him handsomely for his customer service skills and always going above and beyond to so rt out our problems (which were numerous 🤯!) It would take me a year to list all the problems we had so I won't but in a nutshell, we ordered our kitchen at the beginning of July and have only now had the last bit delivered (November!!!!!!) Wrong parts delivered, no parts delivered, parts ordered but not in stock but they don't tell you (even though you wait in for them - on several days, not just one!!!!!) I would recommend that nobody ever buys a kitchen from B&Q ever again. They are so awful. Their only saving grace is Jacob in Portsmouth who has alleviated my stress by taking ownership of the situation and sorting out my problems every step of the way. I simply can't thank him enough for his empathy, diligence and professionalism. Jacob needs to be appreciated for his customer service skills. He is the only asset B&Q have!”

“I popped into B+Q Meir Park last night for a bulb. I had a couple of questions to ask but was told nobody could help me as "the electrician had left for the day".... I popped back today to be told by two staff on the tills that "if you want to catch the electrician you have to come early in the morning".. Sorry B+Q but I have this thing called a job which means I can't keep popping in every day on the off chance I catch somebody who knows about basic electrics! .. I said "surely someone in B+Q can advise me on a bulb wattage".. They didn't reply - I was made to feel stupid and a nuisance, appalling customer service!! They just could not be bothered! Thankfully, a young lad called Callum helped me in the end and be was very pleasant... With so many staff being finished during these difficult times you'd think B+Q would have their pick of staff that really want a job and CAN be bothered to be pleasant and offer decent customer service. Come on B+Q, up your game!”

“Absolutely shocking service, been waiting since April to have some items collected (Now NOVEMBER). For some reason nobody knows their arse from their elbow and keep calling the wrong number although giving them the correct number a multiple of times! Not only this, they have arranged a collection from an old address... Again, I have had to tell them 4-5 times to correct it on their system! Yet another company using COVID as a pathetic excuse! Will never deal with B&Q again, much rather put my head in a car door and keep slamming it.”

“Checked stock online of mosaic tiles however needed 53 and one store could not supply /deliver all . Noticed Preston and Southport had 30 and 25 so tried to secure to click and collect this was last night and as website would not let me collect i phoned Preston this morning to ask if they could help ? Price online was 4 for 3 so total £592 then reverted to over £800 this morning few hours later. Spoke the the most unhelpful person ever called Catina who just told me offer finished at 8 pm last night and nothing she could do- just awaiting a callback from a manager as was hoping to drive to preston and southport today to collect these tiles ? I will remove this or even add a happy ending to the review if this can be dealt with and i can y it was a grat customer experience ?? hopefully . Please help !!!”

“We bought a pack of Bachata Vinyl Click Flooring at £46, started laying it then found that some of the click edging was broken, leaving us with not enough to finish the job. Contacted Dover store to be told if we’d started laying it there was nothing they would do! We had to buy a second pack in order to complete the floor so the whole thing cost us twice as much as it should! The quality of the goods was appalling, and the customer service appalling too...I would suggest you don’t buy this product..and think twice about using B&Q...it appears if you have a problem, they don’t want to know, which is really sad, and has cost us money.”

“I had seven parts delivered damaged. Quality was poor. It took ages to have parts replaced and the fitters had to keep coming back.I asked for a discount for all my trouble. The company gave £300 to the fitter not me as I was the one who paid the bill. Where is the logic there.”

“First time in store at Peterborough since lockdown! Great social distancing! Loved the lady on duty keeping everybody social distancing waiting to be served, if every business had her we would soon get rid of COVID, she was was amazing.”

“I telephoned the store in New Malden to question a drawing in a manual for a 2 x 8ft extendable ladder which I considered wrong (p16) I was told that the manager was to busy and would I bring the ladder into the store! Considering that was not the question and if it was he could have looked at one in the store. Idiots!”

“Wouldn't recommend to get anything from B&Q!! Poor customer service when rang them and cut me off twice. They mistake and they wouldn't accept they fault in this as wrong bath was delivered. Exchange a bath takes up to a week and that is really poor. Blamed the covid -19 issue and also due to short of staff. Please don't bother with this perthetic company.”

“Pontprennau store today. The paint department were exceptionally helpful today. I just enquired about 2 paints where the colours had been discontinued. The young lady took the time to look them up despite not even knowing the brand and then actually offered to make them up for me. I never expected to find the originals let alone walk out with a tin of each. Very happy.”

“DO NOT BUY A KITCHEN! (Or anything...) Wow, I think I could write a small novel on how bad B&Q have been from start to finish!! Where to start? - B&Q constantly sending out the wrong size van down a small road. 3 times running they have sent out a massive 18tn truck despite giving me their assurances every time it would be a small van - Due to oversized trucks we have had this kitchen delayed over and over, the whole thing has taken 3 weeks not 1, that's 3 weeks living at alternative accommodation - Deliveries disappearing- one order never arrived. They don't know why or where it is (still waiting to find out). If I hadn't contacted they would never had said anything...just never delivered the item?! Cue, another 3 week delay for missing part, amazing. - Measurements taken at the order stage were not followed so consequently we had loads of things that wouldn't actually fit - B&Q cancelled items randomly at the last minute- I got calls from them saying, 1 day before the delivery (and months after the order was actually placed) that suddenly they didn't have certain items?! - I contacted the customer service approximately 25 times and despite the best endeavours of their better staff, they literally can't do anything, can't help. I was told different things literally every call?! 3 calls running I was told my order was in 3 different locations! - It beggars belief, I wish I had read reviews and never ordered anything from B&Q. Will never make a big purchase their ever again”
