“Website dysfunctional and inaccurate. Store staff are generally polite and try to be helpful but have no product knowledge. Customer service online and by phone is unhelpful and arrogant. The Marketing and Customer Service Managers should be sacked immediately and replaced with competent 5 year olds.”

“B&q Yading store, don't accept my return(air conditioner) because the box was opened. I bought it online with home delivery! On terms and conditions shows I can return the product in 135 days! The product is in original condition”

“NEVER BUY UPVC DOORS OR WINDOWS FROM B&Q. They say 10 days for delivery, then shaft you off to another company ‘crystal colours’ to deal with your order. This company has no materials ready, and a huge backlog which they cant deal with, resulting in your order being strung along for weeks and weeks. Their customer service even said they ‘dont hold out much hope’ for future deliveries coming in anytime soon. They just want your money. Should be illegal how they operate. Will never purchase from here again. AVOID B&Q AND CRYSTAL COLOURS!!”

“would not honor a local price match and insisted they dont do it anymore! yet its on their website!! went to Canterbury store to buy a bg consumers unit value £71, the local screwfix and others where doing it for £59.99 std price, i printed of the proof and asked for a price match, they refused, said they dont price match anymore!, i then on my phone and went onto their website and screen shot their t&cs "B&Q will match the price of any identical Branded products. The product must be the identical product and you will need to provide us with evidence of the competitor’s price. We will also match the price of our Kitchen cabinets, drawers, door/drawer fronts and worktops as well our Bathroom cabinets, vanity units, shower enclosures, shower trays and screens, baths, basins and toilets.", they then said i was in the Irish site which i was not, i then screenshot again, showing diy.com! at the top of screen, they then again refused, i said ill go 2 miles down the road and buy elsewhere, they said "go on then", rude, lying, unhelpful, unfriendly staff and did i mention this was all said by the till lady and then by the duty manager!”

“DO NOT BUY FRENCH DOORS & WINDOWS FROM B&Q. Absolute joke of a service. Says 10 days for delivery and then told it would be a month wait, then waited a month, and got strung along for another three weeks with delivery dates changing each time. ‘Crystal Colour’ are a shoddy service and their business practise should be illegal, they take all these orders and dont have the materials to process them, and then string you along so you dont get a refund and they can keep your money. Never shopping here again, worst experience ive ever had, would rate 0 stars if i could.”

“B & Q are terrible I will never order anything from them ever again, there were so many issues with our new kitchen (which we chose to do ourselves) that your page does not have enough room for me to list them all. BAD customer service too.!!Rubbish.”

“Why has the Doncaster store sadly depleted stocks of Dulux emulsion ? This is the third visit to purchase some without success, so a wasted journey and wasted use of petrol.”

“Product Quality PVC & Metal Grow House / Customer Service As B&Q reopened after lockdown I purchased this Verve branded product with the expectation that it would last a season or even 2. It was£50 so realistic expectation. 8 - 10 weeks in we had a few gusts of wind and it collapsed destroying some of my tomatoes. Upon inspection I could see the plastic tube connectors had failed. The tubes and cover are fine. I see cracking and hardening. Knowing a little about plastics I suspect ultraviolet deterioration due to sunlight which is easily designed out by using UPVC as for double glazing. The 135 day returns policy is generous but without a receipt it’s not helpful to me. I thought at least their product management would be interested so headed to the website. No links to talk to someone and the customer service options do not cover complaints. I found a chargeable number but do not feel inclined to lose more money. I therefore spend 40 minutes on hold to Derby branch, 10 to answer and the rest waiting to speak to someone. Bored with this I thought I’ll submit a product review and did so. This was vetted and refused as genuine, honest feedback as it does not meet guidelines. They do not say which but leave you even more frustrated than before. Not expecting anything from this review except to warn others to shop with care.”

“We received goods today delivered by Barry and Fraser from the Sutton in Ashfield store to our home in Derbyshire Dales. They assisted in unloading the goods and were very polite. Well done B&Q service excellence personified. Mrs K T Owen”

“I am a woman trade person however every time I go into B&Q I get ignored by male staff who seem to rather help male customers. I was in the cortonwood branch the other day where staff ignored me throughout my purchase to talk over my shoulder to help a male customer even to the point of running over to him as my receipt hadn't even printed out. It's pure discrimination and chauvinism.”

“Been using B& Q for years now to supply kitchens to my rental properties using my Trade Point card. I always use the Blackburn branch as the ladies in the kitchen and Bathroom department are so knowledgeable and helpful. Plus the quality of the products are second to none. Would certainly recommend...”

“Non delivery. My husband waited for delivery in a house that is being renovated they didn't show so he emailed me and asked me to query it. Was told by customer services to ring local store, rang local store who said they don't deliver would need to ring customer services, customer services extremely rude and said that they couldn't speak to me as the order in my husband's name. What a total waste of time you are total lack of any customer service whatsoever”

“Ordered the Rockwell Barbecue online. Bargain in the sale. Delivered on time by top team. Extremely well packed. Barbecue was ok to make up following the clear instructions. The barbecue is a good quality, sturdy and nice looking. Would recommend.”

“We visited the Halifax store, met a wonderful helpful sales assistant called Steve. He was really helpful and went above and beyond his remit. Picked up and took 16 paving stones to our car, put them in the car and it was a pleasure to have met him. Fantastic service Steve, many thanks for your help and your customer support was brilliant.”
