Ordered on 26/11/20, website says parcel dispatched to a store rather than my house (as specified). Unable to contact customer service via phone as line 'unable to take calls' and disconnects. Appalling. If there was an option for zero stars I would have picked it. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

Ordered my gifts on the 23rd November and only recieved one of these on 4th December! Still waiting for 5 items. Virtual assistant only says been dispatched to royal mail and phone line is constantly engaged. I would not use the online shopping again!

Ordered goods on 27 nov 2020. Delivery date 2 December. order not delivered despite email to say goods had left warehouse. Tracking does not work, phone Centre is constantly engaged, email no joy either as just an automated response. I will NEVER use them again and will make sure High street Boots doesn’t get my business either. Complete rubbish!

wow!!!!!! How disgusting this company is for sending bought and paid for goods. And to get information about were the items are on top of that they do not answer the phone. emails are not acknowledged and the chat box is a computer that tells you to wait 3 more days every time you ask. taking this to the top as i am absolutely disgusted with a long running company that has gained customers trust and insulted them by taking there money and not delivering the goods.

I placed an order online and was sent an email with a tracking link that did not work. It took me to a Royal Mail page for returning parcels which would be great but I am still waiting for it to be delivered!! Tried emailing still waiting for a reply! If you are struggling to deliver on time would it not be better to keep customers informed? Awful service will never use again

Was very disappointed with pharmacy in the Coatbridge store yesterday when I went to pick up 2 repeat prescriptions and they were not ready knowing that my doctor put them in 4 days previous to myself picking them up only to be lied to from staff that they had just came from the doctors surgery it is getting ridiculous and happening constantly that surely someone must be able to take control off this and sort it out . I realise we are at times struggle to get things in order but how much notice do you have to give them jto have prescriptions ready for pick up .

Ordered some Xmas presents on Boots’ website, however a completely different order turned up. Contacted customer services via email to make them aware, asking them how they would be collecting the incorrect order and asking for my original order to be sent out. They said they would not be sending out my correct order until I had returned the incorrect order to my local store. I advised I didn’t want to visit a store seeing as the mistake was not mine to rectify (plus it was a large box / items to return, not easy when you don’t drive!). I had paid for delivery for the very reason that I wanted to avoid going into a shop unnecessarily at this time. I said in my emails I’m very happy for them to have the incorrect items back seeing as they’re not mine and I have not paid for them, and suggested they either send a courier or use the royal mail collection service. My request was denied saying that their terms and conditions state that any order must be returned to store (or by dropping into the post office) before they would send out my correct order. I don’t see how an incorrect order sent out should follow the same terms and conditions as a customer deciding to return a product they don’t want anymore?! Yes mistakes happen, and I am not one to complain for that reason alone, but the onus should be on them to put it right not the customer. Awful customer experience. Will not be using again and I urge others to avoid based on the other recent 1 star reviews (I would give zero if possible!).

Really bad experience. Wanted to buy a parfume but the training lady treated me as a garbage. Not to mention about the Romanian trainee....she pretended that she didn’t understand us🙁 She pretended to be quiet and stupid 🤦‍♀️.The only stupid person I was.... I can not believe that Boots hires this kind of people....it has nothing to do with customers service. I’m not going to buy anything ever again from Boots...even I was a regular customer....a verified one.... Disappointed

I had a really bad experience today.Went to buy a parfume as a gift but instead had an awful episode. The girl who was serving us was a trainee and speaking the same language as us,but she pretended that she didn’t understand...which was upsetting. When her colegue come,she treat us us garbage...didn’t say hello,didn’t present herself,just told us to back off and keep our mask on. At that moment I felt that I didn’t want to buy anything even than I knew that I had to buy a present for my friend. When I saw how other costumes are treated ...I decided to return what I bought. After all, I could find Super drug ...with amazing customer services...bought a parfume. Why buying from Boots and treated miserably when you can spent your money where you are treated as a human being. Super drugs.....the best!

On-line ordering. Internal validation checks results in Boots cancelling your order. You payment funds are held pending on your bank account for days until they are cleared, your points are removed for a few day if you use your Advantage card points. Boots do not honour bonus points events or special offers when a validation check throws out your order. I have been a customer of Boots for over 40 years and never had a problem until now. It is almost impossible to order items online. I can, however, order the same items if I create a new email account and checkout as a guest but I have to wait for my funds an points to be made available days later.

My issue is that Boots have closed the Disabled Customer toilet in one of the Nottingham Opticians. I arrived with an 88 year old relative who requires an eye test and new prescription. My relative is registered disabled and uses a wheelchair. There are also continence issues with which we have to deal. We asked about access to the toilet that had been closed and were told that my relative could have access. An hour and a half later the store manager denied us access to the toilet quoting company policy. Having complained the problem lies with Head Office not with individual stores. It is indeed company policy to close toilets. This seems to contravene basic human rights for anyone who is disabled. My relative is a known Boots customer. Their records will show age etc. yet we were not informed in advance that the toilet would be closed. Unfortunately Boots don't seem prepared to do anything about it.

Amended delivery address but when submitted order it put in an old address from 4 years ago. Can’t amend the delivery address can’t cancel the order! It’s boots fault but apparently they can’t sort it out. Ridiculous!! Update ur technology. I won’t be ordering from boots again. Do Boots even care. I think not.

I recently bought a box of 50 disposable face masks from Boots in the Ocean Terminal only to find out a week later that the same box is selling on Amazon for £7.50. Talk about taking advantage of a poor situation. Shame on Boots.
