TOTALLY exasperated by the incompetence & extremely poor customer service I have received from Boots.com.... Ordered 2 each of 3 items online as my local store doesn't stock 1 of the items (a Boots own brand item!) & always has poor stock levels of the other 2 items. 1 item was on a buy 1 get 1 half price. After my order was despatched I was sent an email to say they'd only sent 1 of the on offer item (I was therefore refunded the difference). I went to my local store to collect the other 5 items to find only 1 had been sent šŸ˜• The assistant very kindly contacted Boots.com on my behalf & I was assured that the other items had been reordered & would be on their way. I went a 2nd time to collect said order to find Boots.com had sent the same 1 item I had received the previous time 😟 Once again the assistant contacted Boots.com & asked them to reorder the missing items & also asked them to confirm 3, yes 3, times what items they were sending. Problem solved....you'd think so right?!? I received an email confirming despatch of only 2 of the missing 4 items!!! 😔 By this point I am seriously hacked off. I contact Boots.com myself & am told they might not be able to reorder the missing items as I've already had 2 reorders against my original order....Yes, I have!! But only through the complete incompetence of Boots.com staff!!! 🤬🤬 The reorder did go through. Today I have eventually received all of my order after having to order them 4 times & 3 trips into my local store!*?#@$! How difficult is it....I would hazard a guess at 'not at all!!' I DON'T recommend Boots.com & I very much doubt I'll use them again

I went there to buy sunglasses with prescription but the assistant was clearly not inclined to any customer service. She did not anything to understand my needs but the opposite she sent me away in a very bad and frustrated mood. This was the Oxford Street branch the big one closed to Bond Street . Don't go there.

My order was cancelled and when I asked them for the reason they were not able to tell why!!! I guess its because they were offering 21points for spent £1. So they make point offers but don't give them cancelling orders. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!

I have placed an online order of £231.10 "order 264375644" on Thursday 30th August 2018, because I would be saving £72.97. Order went through and the money wad debited from my bank account. However few minutes later I received an email confirming that the order has been cancelled and I will not be charged. At that time I thought that I might have not had sufficient fund on the account (although I made sure I did have the right amount in my bank account), therefore I placed another order from a different bank account "order 264783090". The same thing happed again where I received an email from Boots stating that the order has been cancelled and I won't be charged again. This order wasn't for me as it was for a friend of mine who lives abroad and she sent the money to purchase those products and take it to her the following week when I go to see her. I have spoken to my bank after checking that I didn't have the two funds in my account. They have informed me that's because its bending from Boots side. When I spoke to Boots they have informed by their customer manager "Depa" that's if it was him and not one of their staff pretending to be a manager!!! hat I will get fund paid back to my account two days later on Saturday the 1st September 2018. As I expected that was a lie and I haven't received the amount of £4462.20 as I had been assured by Depa. I have contacted my bank and been instructed what to request from Boots by sending me another email with a full order details so the bank can stop that transaction. I did call Boots back twice to dispute the order and service and everytime I spoke to their customer service team none of them wanted to co-operate at all and were very arrogant and rude. So now I have to fly in couple of days to see my friend without taking the products to her; however I will have to take the amount of £462.20 from my own account and give it back to her which makes me short of this fund. I have spoken to one Boots staff at the store and been informed that I wasn't the first person who complain about their customer service team. This is a horrendous experience and Boots needs to get their acts right, because if they don't sort this situation out me or another customer who's been in my situation will take a legal action against them very soon. This is a horrendous experience and Boots need to get their acts right before they get named & shamed for their horrific customer service. My argument is not against the store staff as they work extremely hard and provide an outstanding service but against their their online team and the customer service team and managers.

Spoke to 3 people in the Uxbridge store, all miserable and not putting them selves out to assist me. Customer service training required!

cancellation policy is awful. Ordered an item at 11am. wanted to cancel the order 30 minutes later. Even though the order is still pending they refuse to cancel the order informing me to wait until the order is delivered and then return to store. How does that even make sense?

I ordered some Clinique powder, transparency 4 and received transparency 7, way too dark for my skin. When I tried to contact customer service over a week ago and then again 2 days ago, I never received a reply. I will never order from this store again!

I attempted to use their next day collect at store service. The order said dispatched but after 3 days it still wasn't at the store. So order cancelled and re-ordered. Same story. Their online customer service is pretty useless since they have no proper tracking of orders. Will not use Boots online service again.

The Boots website is a joke! It's slow and unreliable and the check stock in store function is a waste of time. After numerous attempts this morning to find an item I gave up and walked to the nearest store to look for myself. If Boots wants to sell online they should sort out their website. I shall be removing the app from my mobile device and shopping elsewhere. I have no complaints about the staff in my local store, they are all friendly and helpful.

Get it together Boots in Oxted Surrey! Honestly, it’s so chaotic. On the whole they are usually very good, but we as a family have taken our business elsewhere.

Visited Boots in Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent. Having handed over my prescription was told that they could only partially fill it and that I would have to return the following day to collect the rest. The assistant then continued to serve other customers leaving me standing without explaining that the Chemist had to check my medication before handing it over to me. I was in considerable pain and my meds were just a few feet away, unfortunately the chemist was with another customer so almost 30 minutes later I received my prescription. Today as advised I returned to pick up the rest of my prescription after 12 pm. The doors were locked and the opening times displayed did not indicate that the shop would be closed for lunch, nor was I advised that the shop would be closed for lunch when advised to pick up my prescription. Staff were not apologetic and not very professional concerning customer service.

Wanted to try the new Azzaro aftershave, so did a search on-line which showed that my local Boots branch did not stock it, but it showed that Poole had it in stock. So decided to travel to Poole as it was in stock, and also there was an offer with a free Bag and Hair and body wash with it. So off I went to Poole, got to Boots and asked if they had it and they produced the sampler. I liked the product so decided to purchase, when I asked about the free bag and body wash they said ā€œ we don’t have those but if you purchase it on-line now we can get it sent to your local Bootsā€ and it will be delivered the next day, so went ahead and got them to order it, and asked that the free items would be with it, and they confirmed that it would. Next morning went to my local Boots to collect the items, they got the package and gave it too me. I thought this doesn’t look as if it is big enough to hold the bag, on opening the bag outside, you guess it ā€œNo Bagā€. The invoice that came with it stated there should be a bag and body wash free with this item. The lady rang to see about the bag, straight away, without any checking they said ā€œThere is none in the storeā€, so basically tough, no we will try and get you one. I got the lady to check the Boots website and it is still showing that you get the bag and body wash with this item. So Boots are still selling this item with incorrect information, if there is none in the Warehouse and they have none left why still advertise it. Will be giving up my Boots card and going to a different opticians after this lack of customer service !!!!!!!
