Popped in to kidderminster branch to purchase some turf. Only 2 tills open and at least 30 people in each queue. The pensioner serving on the till i was waiting to get to had an issue with his till. He put out 4 calls for help even asking for a duty manager assistance which were all in vain. The queues by this time resembled a football terrace . No wonder british shops are closing. I could have grown grass from seed quicker. Will be going to Home base next time

same as below if there was a no star option i would have chosen that...Must have made over 30 phone calls and have the call log to prove this...They sent us a text to say delivery on thursday my girlfreind booked the day off work and nothing after more phone calls and being promised somebody would ring us back 3 times it was finally delivered saturday morning..Absolutly shocking service even there own fitter had been trying to chase it up and said somebody had been lieing ..Hardly fills me with confidence them coming to fit it today after the experience so far...if it hadnt been this far down the line id have binnned the whole order...Shocking..

Only giving One Star because the option of no Stars isn't possible. Worst customer service I have ever experienced. B&Q delivered damaged goods that weren't fit for purpose and couldn't of cared less. One item was missing completely. Totally uninterested and unhelpful. They clearly don't have any customer service training. Will never buy anything from B&Q again.

Delivery agreed, times changed twice, then delivery left vm to say delivery won’t be made. Phoned numerous departments as we have a fitter booked. No help what so ever from b&q Cardiff gate or their vender.. wouldn’t purchase a paint brush from me them!!! Disgraceful service

Do not order anything for home delivery. The following refers to Ilford branch. 1. Bathroom tiles to be delivered after 8am we left in back garden at about 7.20am when no one at the house. We did not notice delivery until the afternoon when we contacted the company to find out when being delivered. 2. Interior doors left supplier and disappeared without trace. Money refunded but told we would have to reorder. Did not bother. 3. Wood flooring not delivered on the Friday it was due as order not properly processed. New date arranged for following Monday between 10am and 12 noon. No delivery during that time and when contacted was told it was out for delivery by contractor who could not be contacted. Not until after 5pm did we find out the order was still in the warehouse. Finally delivered yesterday but delivery men refused to bring into house as per the B & Q commitment. My wife was told one of the men was only the driver and the other said items too heavy to carry. Boxes left on driveway and myself and builder had to carry in when I got home from work.

I purchased a plywood sheet and the staff member went above and beyond expectation with help in cutting it down to the required sizes.

I was in cumbernauld branch on Monday i was buying some plants. The plants i was buying were really dried out, when i spoke to the checkout woman she said they just need some TLC.. she (an old woman did not get her nane) charged me full price for inferior goods....she had no customer skills was not a people person at all. I will not be buying from B and Q anytime soon because of her attitude....i think you should be focusing on your staff training. I wad in store at 14.57. Receipt no 248420

I had ply board to be cut for my latest project Kiren based at Gasgow Greatwestern Road. He was very helpful and not phased at all by my requests He was very affective and polite and helpful.

Bought a shed at B&Q in Leeds the shed was delivered and installed I had trouble with it and went back to B&Q and spoke to a manager called Robert he did everything he could to sort this out and I'm very happy for what he has done for me I cannot fault the staff at this branch as they go all out to resolve your problem if I could give more stars I would give them 10 out of 10 and my friends are happy with this store as well

Warning Don't expect any spare parts Tried to get replacement charger, (lost mine) after a lot of time wasting and misleading information B&Q fobed me off with Spares Giant still waiting for some form of response after a week, not hopeful. Product is good but B&Q do not care about aftersales. Never again will go to a reputable dealer in future.

45 minutes waiting to be served... Useless Wigan Store. Here's an idea .... Employ some of the millions that are out of work and maybe, just maybe people will get looked after in store.

Again product not marked up with bare code so arriving at the till with other customers waiting in line behind me I had to leave the Items behind. In addition not enough staff around to check on the correct price etc. Sloppy sore and section management as this is not the first episode .

Went to Oldham store, 14 people in the queue, 1 cash desk open, no self service. Left without buying what I wanted. Lots of complaining going on but no staff opening more tills.

Went to Wisbech store today to order fence panelling and posts and me and my husband were helped by an excellent lad called Lee-Jay who helped us size everything, stack the trolley then load it onto the roof of the car. He was excellent and he made the whole shenanigans excellent and even fun. Five start customer service.

Ordered garden furniture on line. Delivery arranged for one week later but text came through saying there was a system error and they would be in touch. No delivery and days with no further contact. I emailed to check status to be told a delivery arranged for a week and a half later. Delivery driver arrived with no products in his van(you couldn't make this up) Called customer services to be told items were cancelled by someone and now out of stock for next few months. Not great. Incompetent and poor communication and service. To top it off furniture still being advertised on website and still able to order. Get it together B &Q

Customer service below any standards. My shower screen exploded when nobody was in the bathroom. They offered me a replacement I have requested a refund but they are unable to provide me with it. My wee daughter could have been injured twice as while installation a guy put his foot and made a big hole in my ceiling. Absolutely disgusted. DON't GET A BATHROOM FROM B&Q !!! DON'T get anything from them !!

am absolutely disgusted with your customer service. I ordered some composite decking on 20th may and your website said 4 days to deliver. 21st i received an acknowledgement. 23rd i had a text from dx delivery informing me that the delivery would be 24th morning. then had to make arrangements for someone to be in to sign. 24th may at 12.10 i had a text from dx to say the order had been delayed and they would contact me with a new delivery. When i visited scunthorpe store the assistant told me the order had been received at the wrong depot. I sent an email to a Ben in customer services who told me that the order would then be sent out 30th May in the morning. Incidently, I required the product to complete a project bank holiday weekend for a party on the monday. So today, NO ORDER DELIVERED AGAIN!!! I went into the store and spent an hour listening to the idle chit chat of 2 assistants complaining of dx delivery. They told me that the consignment was damaged! So to summarise 1/ 2 failed deliveries 2/ 3 reasons for non delivery, wrong depot, out of stock and damaged in transit. 3/ I am a gardener by trade. If I had ordered this for my customer I would probably have lost the contract down to your incompetence. no replies to 3 emails mrs Lindley
