Clinique Counter, Queen Street, Cardiff Branch. Not entirely happy actually. I have shopped in Boots all my adult life and particularly visit the Clinique Counter. I went in today to purchase a Clinique Chubby Stick and spoke to an assistant who helped me choose the correct colour, however, she also tried to push a lipstick and a lip liner on me, constantly saying they would "look lovely on me". I explained that I preferred a more neutral liner (which was not available) and also that I had a lipstick in the honey colour she was urging me to purchase! She then grabbed the chubby stick and said "oh well, just have this then". She obviously lost patience with me because I wouldn't take her advice. I felt quite offended as had I gone along with her very pushy stance I would have spent almost £100 and not the £26 I paid. I have come across her once before when purchasing a lip oil just over a year ago and I she used the same tactic then. However I gave her the benefit of the doubt as we all have an off day, but I would try to avoid her in future and if she were the only assistant on duty that day, I would be inclined to go elsewhere for advice and purchases. I didn't get her name unfortunately, but I must stress that the other Clinique Advisors I usually deal with are great and I have no quibble with anyone else on the counter.

I had not shopped with Boots for a about three years due to a bad experience in store with a sales assistant who, when I asked for a pot of my favourite moisturiser inquired "do you know how much this is?". It still rankles. However, time has moved on and I placed an online order for the same moisturiser and a small bottle of perfume, totalling £130. The order qualified for a free gift box set of samples. The box the order was dispatched in had previously been used but was no longer sturdy and was not fit for purpose, the individual packaging of the items were damaged (the actual goods weren't but they were not in a condition that could have been given as gifts) and the free gift was open and contained different sample products to the contents shown on the box, and which had also been tampered with. I can't imagine why any company would practice sending out used skincare samples as free gifts! But, yes, Boots do apparently. I emailed Boots customer service (a complete rigmarole in itself) but their response was a couldn't-care-less attitude, and even though the free gift had clearly been used they would not exchange it because it was a free gift. I paid good money for a good product but I did it through a second-rate organisation and I won't be making that mistake again. Three years on and Boots continue to be insulting to it's customers, this time they took no care in the picking and packing of my order, sent me a used product as a free gift, and treated me as though I was wrong when I contacted them. They really need to up their game if they want to increase their bottom line - Boots have already missed out on three years worth of contributions from my larger Lancome purchases to those little everyday toiletries, and I won't be putting any more contributions their way ever again. I'm should never have given them a second chance.

Disgusting customer service. they charge £5.95 for next day delivery then use a cheap and nasty company (DHL Ecommerce) who don't deliver. When you contact Boots they treat you like YOU'VE done something wrong. Nobody wants to know. Parcel is stuck in depot with no delivery date pending. Asked Boots to recall it but they won't. Consequently I have no money and no parcel and that's ok with them because I am just one, insignificant person NOT a valued customer. They could've sent the parcel with a reliable company but greed took over. Emailed CEO, email just bounces to a 'senior' customer services advisor that is rude and unhelpful.

I am using Clairol Studio Hair Colour, and now Boots stopped having this brand on its stores. How am I supposed to colour my hair now? You cannot just change brands, because the colours are different. Clairol has other brands, but Clairol Studio is different. And I don't shop online, so I am not getting this online!!! No way, shopping online is dangerous and more expensive. If you stop stocking a product in you shop, you will have to provide an alternative for a similar product, and its not happeing, the other.products are different. How are you supposed to maintain your customers if you keep changing the products? What a rubbish service

I am very dissatisfied with Boots UK and their unacceptable handling of my order. My parcel was irresponsibly left outside my door without my consent or any notification. When I returned home, it had been taken. Despite this clear delivery failure, Boots insists the parcel was “successfully delivered” and has refused both a refund and a replacement. This is completely unacceptable. I have also spoken directly with the courier, who confirmed they were penalised for failing to deliver the parcel. This means Boots has already received compensation for a failed delivery, yet I have been left with nothing — no order and no refund. This is not just poor customer service, it is fundamentally unfair treatment of a paying customer. I expect accountability and a proper resolution. Based on this experience, I strongly advise others to avoid ordering from Boots.

I visited Boots this morning at Princess Alice Retail Park, Sutton Coldfield and received truly outstanding customer service. Jo was incredibly helpful and attentive while assisting me with choosing a new sun cream, and she also informed me about an available offer on the product, which I really appreciated. Her knowledge and willingness to help made the experience pleasant. At the till, Jacqui was equally professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring everything was handled seamlessly. I am very impressed with the level of care and customer service provided by the team. They are a real credit to the store. Wishing them all the very best!

I needed to buy cystitis medication while on holiday in Llandudno, I went into the Boots store in the shopping area and the pharmacy was shut between 13.00 and 14.00 pm,even though I could reach the packet another assistant said I couldn't purchase it another till I would have to come after 2pm. Which I couldn't do. I needed to go down to the retail park in Llandudno so thought I would purchase at the Boots store there. Alas another were shut until 3pm. As I was on foot and walk with a stick I had to give it up as a bad job. Come on Boots look after your customers.

A massive 'thank you' to Nila who works on the Chanel counter in Boots Brent Cross. She is always kind, polite and helpful and is a fantastic representative for Chanel. Boots are lucky to have such a special salesperson who looks and acts in such a professional manner. She is calm and considerate and an excellent advocate for the Chanel brand and Boots itself. Well done and thanks once again for such wonderful service.

What a fantastic sales assistant in Hempstead Valley Boots. Having struggled to see anyone to help at the perfume counter, Natasha left her till station to give us excellent advice on our aftershave purchase. We had sadly just missed the online offer but she went the extra mile to suggest other options. So lovely to know there are still sales assistants with the willingness to help. Thank you!

I would avoid ordering from Boots online at all costs. On 23rd Feb ordered Chanel perfume to be delivered to local store for collection on 27th Feb. Received notification of item dispatch on 24th and then that was last contact we ever received from Boots. Checked twice with store but they never received item but had to wait another 7 days before I could make a complaint. Today, nearly 2 weeks after placing order, contacted customer service who informed me it may have gone to wrong store, but didn't know which one, so obviously tracking within Boots doesn't work efficiently. Requested a refund and advised this could take up to another 2 weeks, so in total 4 weeks from placing a simple order to possibly receiving a refund. Worst service ever

I was sent by my GP to get an optician to see what was causing my double vision. I had a very thorough eye examination and was told I need prism lens as one eye muscle weak and she told me just to 100% sure she would book me an appointment at the eye clinic. Now sorted through the diligence of the lady optician at Chorley Boots. Excellent service.

Tried to use 'photo' print facility...Used to be so easy to access, quick print off photographs from my mobile...not any more! Photoprint facility would not 'recognise my 'phone', no-one there to help. If you're going to make a facility difficult to use, please make sure there are members of staff to help!

Awful. Wouldn’t even give them 1 star. Never order anything expensive from them. I received my parcel which had been opened and expensive perfume missing. Rang straight away and was told I’ll be refunded non problem as it shouldn’t have been left in flats on my door. Well couldn’t be further from the truth. I’ve fought for weeks woth boots with them declining my claim because it was received!! I’m going through my bank but boots are still rejecting it. I’m £150 down and without my stuff I’m sooooo mad 😡 the worst company I’ve dealt with when it comes to having any issues with my parcel.

Had an amazing experience at Boots Sprucefield Lisburn today! I visited the No7 counter and was served by ‘Anita!’ Totally professional, knowledgeable, and patient! With her help I renewed my complete makeup purse and I will definitely be recommending Anita to friends and family!

I am extremely dissatisfied with my recent experience after placing an order with Boots. At the time of purchase, I was clearly informed that I would receive bonus Advantage Card points as part of the offer. However, I have now been told that I will not receive these points. This is very disappointing and feels like false advertising. I made my purchase based on the understanding that the bonus points were included, and had I known this was not the case, I may have reconsidered my order. I expect this issue to be reviewed and resolved promptly, as customers should be able to trust that advertised promotions will be honoured.

Boots are refusing to refund me for an order which was incomplete. The missing item cost £180. Such disgusting service from a retailer I’d previously respected. I definitely won’t be purchasing from them again.
