Boots Reviews

"Used to work for boots and have been a valued customer for many years, in the past they always prided themselves on providing excellent customer service but I am absolutely disgusted in the awful service we received after having a toothbrush for 5 months and returning it via Royal Mail. (I did not read the small print that collection is not allowed) despite it being an available option when returning, postman collected and upon receiving receipt of this we received no update. After 2 months back and forth on email and phone call they finally refused refund or exchange (or even to return our goods to return it \u201ctheir way\u201d due to us not sending back in the shop\u2026\r\n\r\nWe have proof that they have received our goods via Royal Mail, not only are they refusing a refund for goods clearly faulty or exchange but they failed to return the goods. \r\n\r\nCustomer service is appalling and a total disgrace, nothing is EVER followed up whether you go by email or telephone and I will never purchase from boots again! They should be ashamed."

"Received my order looking like this thanks to Royal Mail and no packaging within the box. However Imad in their customer service team treated me with kindness and understanding and patience and was able to arrange an agreed solution. He is a credit to his team!"

"Failing of contractual requirements by not delivering my parcel to my building\r\nMy daughter placed an order for two electric toothbrushes, a hairdryer and shampoo ( 192 pounds!) for the delivery date of the 19th September 2023. I was staying with her then, and waited the whole day for the delivery. It did not arrive and has never come. We phoned Boots that evening and were told we had to wait 24 hours before reporting it.\r\nWe phoned (20th) the next day and were told it had been delivered. It had not. I had also been in the day of the 20th as we were expecting various deliveries, and I kept checking if we had received any deliveries.\r\nWe emailed and phoned again and were told we had to wait 72 hours before an investigation could be logged.\r\n\r\nThe Royal Mail had a photo on their system showing delivery. It was a photo of a building area not anywhere in our building. We sent an email including their \"proof of delivery\" photo and photos of our building showing how it could not possibly be our building, so it could not be used as proof of delivery, instead, it was proof that it had been incorrectly delivered.\r\nAfter numerous emails and telephone calls, We were informed on the 7th of October that the Royal Mail had investigated and concluded that the parcel had been delivered. Boots's contractual requirements had been met, and we would not receive a refund.\r\n\r\nI am distraught and disappointed. The fact that the Royal Mail photo was not of our building, there was no option to have a signed delivery for a high-value item, and it is Boots who has a contract with Royal Mail for delivery, not us; how could they conclude that their contractual obligations had been met. This is a large sum of money to lose as Boots, who has a contract with Royal Mail for deliveries as their carrier, are failing in their \"contractual requirements in relation to this order\" as Royal Mail did not deliver the parcel to the correct building which resulted in us not receiving our parcel at all. We should not bear the consequences of their mistake.\r\n\r\nBoots suggested we \"contact your local authorities if you believe the parcel has been stolen from your property\". We cannot do this as the authorities would conclude that the parcel was never delivered to our building based on the photograph provided by Royal Mail and an examination of our building. It would be evident to any observer that they were not in the same building.\r\n\r\nDate of experience: 19 September to October 07, 2023"
