Online queuing.........Ridiculous. Queuing outside store to make sure no more shoppers 'then is safe' can enter at any one time is fine and understandable. Online queuing...Totally over the top... Ebay and Amazon have miles more foot traffic per hour...and do NOT have queuing systems. When you do get into the BQ site. It is accept our cookies or your not coming in!!! If you want people to buy elsewhere...JUST SAY SO.

Placed an order 4 days ago and still sat waiting for the email to say it’s ready to collect - went to the store to explain I had no running water at all only to be told nothing they could do and I had to wait for the email? Went so Screwfix picked it up within minutes of ordering but no way to cancel my order? Appalling service! Come on B&Q sort it out or you will loose customers as you own Screwfix then you would think the model would be the same ??

I ordered compost after waiting an hour on your website to be told non available what a waste of time I tried again and ordered a different compost and you took my money after a week on click 0an collect you email and cancel order and I have to wait a week for a refund. Disgusting way to treat customers will take my custom elsewhere bnq you need to sort yourself out.

I have desperate need to repair a roof and know my local store has the items I need. Waited 65 mins to get online to click and collect as we have available transport. Allowed me to put into basket then said click and collect option not available. Deliver was free so decided to go with this. Took all my details then said deliver not available....AHHHHH.....WHAT A WASTE OF TIME

Sadly after what i believe to be great customer service normally i can't get a reply to my o line form i have completed twice now. I have paid for goods& delivery.I was text to say the delivery would be delivered Easter Sunday A.M which i thought was strange. No delivery yet 9 days later no reply & nowhere to go.I,m sure things will be resolved soon.

Terrible website, no confirmation of order but money taken from my account. Unable to speak to anyone, just directed to the website to complete a form that won't submit. Really annoying after waiting in a queue for an hour, now I don't want my order - just a refund!!

Awful website design at these times, if I was in charge I'd fire the imbeciles running your website. WAIT in the queue for over a hour to then spend a hour going through what can't be delivered which isn't automatically shown. Silly yes as it only involves a simple coding, Anyway after about 2 hours the website crashes and sends me back to waiting in the queue for 40mins without completing my order... Thanks for wasting my time you utter c***s, I'm purchasing of your competitors now. Yours sincerely a potential customer.

Ok, we are going through a hellish time at the moment and online shopping is the only way to order products. So waited in my online queue, got in after 30 minutes, that's fine. Now not really knowing what are essential items and the website indicates nothing. So I proceed to order my items, paint, paintbrushes, wd40, Lawn seed, vegetable seeds and a few other items, basically things that will keep people in lockdown sane by being able to do jobs around the home and I get to checkout and it tells me these items are not available for click and collect and I can save them for a later date. Ok, so I get that these are not essential items according to B&Q, but why let people search, add to basket and then blow you out at check out. A complete waiste of time. Why not simply get the B&Q website guys to only show the essential items. B&Q's website has always be rubbish even before the current situations. JUST TOTALLY RUBBISH. And it's worth mentioning that some of the items that are not available for click and collect are available for click and collect and are cheaper on the Screwfix ordering app...B&Q and Screwfix are owned by the same parent company !!!!!!!!!

No contact for over a week regarding my order, no reply to emails or facebook messages, website contact page doesn't work. Shocking customer service, they say 3 days wait but actually it is 4 times that time. They are still taking orders and taking peoples money. They have furloughed many workers when they have record high sales so it seems they are even defrauding the government. Very poor example from a major company. I will never use them ever again

3.5 hour wait on click&collect in the car park - they aren’t even using walkie talkies, instead walking inside each time to communicate - absolutely moronic

It would appear that during the coronovirus epidemic that B&Q are offering home delivery and click and collect services. That's good, problem is that the stuff I wanted (paint mostly) is unavailable even for click and collect. I had to wait one hour to get onto the B&Q site to find this out as I could not contact the store by phone. Bah.

Shocking service We purchased worktops from b&q delivery was around 2/3 weeks 1 week before they supposed to be delivered had a email saying do not take your old kitchen out theres a delay on delivery kitchen had already been taken out at this time and is ready for the worktops to be fitted we have no cooking facilities till we receive worktops they was supposed to ring us on delivery date with new delivery date they didn't they did ring two days later to say they are sorting it they will ring us in a week and half to let us know what's happening with the worktop. Sick of this now I just need these worktops if u cant get them to me I'll get them from some where reliable

Still waiting for B&Q to come back to me as I have not had notification to pick up my click and collect order however they said I have picked it up & have taken payment. You can’t call them, and I have emailed 3 times to find out what to do with no response. Totally understand these are challenging times but to not have any easy way to contact them is frustrating. I have no idea what to do now. I am hoping to get a response to my emails but other than that I will have to try and recover the money via my credit card company.

Awful. Whilst we all understand the CV-19 restrictions, a little help would have been appreciated. Went to collect a bag of PostCrete to repair a fence post. It weighs 20kg. I am 60 y/old and physically very small. The staff member dropped the 20kg bag on a pile of pallets and said "I'm not coming near your car" and walked off before I could ask if there was any way of getting some help. Have been in pain from having to lift too heavy a weight for the rest of the day. Disgraceful and I will go without rather than buy from them again.

The Click and Collect service clearly doesn't work. We had a phone call this morning, it said that our items are ready to pick up. Went to the store and there was complete chaos, the staff didn't know what to do, there was no systematic order in place. We just left after an hour's wait. Waste of time.

I waited 45 minutes in your virtual queue. Then spent same time searching website and filling Badley only to get kicked out of the site and put back in the queue. What a total waste of time. Is there any point at all me spending another 2 hours trying to buy from your site? This system doesn’t work.

Was in a virtual queue for over an hour. When it was my turn it said ‘redirecting you to B&Q page’... But redirected me to another virtual queue for 59 minutes. Not happy at all.
