Went to the store in Solihull. Extremely understaffed, so no one to ask for advice. The place was dirty untidy and needs better care, basically boots need to redecorate the store....... Definitely not the high class store from years ago! Very disappointed

Order never arrived. Customer service is useless, now have to wait 2 weeks for refund but they can take the money fast enough.

Boots have failed to deliver my order and failed to process my refund. My order was meant to be delivered 7 days ago to my nominated Boots store, after placing the order two weeks ago. I have emailed Boots customer service twice in the last 7 days and still zero response! Phone waiting times in excess of 40 minutes, The law is the law, you cannot take payment and fail to deliver the goods, please refer to section 28 of the Consumer Rights Act (2015). Given Boots inertia and trading misconduct, I have no choice but to contact my bank and the Trading Standards in order to resolve this matter.

Placed an order for presents for Christmas the box arrived in wet and damaged all presents inside where damaged clearly not looked after in the warehouse. No I have to through the effort of returning exchanging or refunding my presents which have been out of stock for ages or giving them in bad condition which isn’t nice for a present

Ordered 100ml Phantom aftershave on Black Friday along with Shower Gel, only received the shower gel and Boots cancelled the aftershave as unavailable BUT it was available to re order on their site at full price! 90 mins on calls that were never answered and emailed complaints to get a standard response offering no explanation just a reference No.55782209

If it was possible to give this 0 stars instead of 1, I would. I'm writing this review in hopes that Boots may read this and actually reach out to me. I purchased an item online in their Black Friday sale for Click and Collect - with an anticipation this would be in store in a few days. No later than 06/12 according to their e-mail. It's been more than a fortnight now and absolutely no communication from Boots about my item. I've attempted to call (but the wait time is over 40 minutes, and I still can't get through), I've attempted to e-mail (but no response). I'm beginning to suspect this Black Friday sale may have just been a scam. @Boots - if you're reading this, where is my item?

Ordered Some beauty products on 1st December to be collected at local shop on 10th December, but online it still says that the order is being processed. Phoned their customer service and spoke to a lady called Rashimi. She said they are busy and it can take a long time to deliver to their own shops. But she thought that the items were in transit, but couldn't tell how many days it would take to arrive at the shop . She said to wait another 72 hours and phone again. As this was for a birthday present I asked to cancel the order, but she couldn't do that either. Asked to speak to a manager and got cut off. 23 minutes on a phone listening to music . USELESS

I ordered some items on line for delivery to my local Boots at Bolton Middlebrook. Everything was great regarding the online order, text and email to say it was ready for collection. That’s what the two stars are for. I went to collect the parcel, waited at the Electrical desk which is located near the perfumes. There were four staff members in the area. The lady at the counter finished serving the customer in front of me then walked off to join the discussion with the other staff members. She then totally ignored me and when she decided to return to the counter she asked the man behind me if he needed serving …..how rude. I at this point, politely said I was first. She then said that it was unclear who was next and that they need a system ? They have a system first in the queue is first. She then took my details asking each time for me to repeat my name, order number etc, pulling her mask down as if I was some kind of idiot who couldn’t understand. The man behind me could not believe what he was seeing. This lady needs a wake up call, do not ignore your customers and treat them with courtesy . If it had been busy I could make an exception. I work in retail, actually next door to this door and we most certainly do not treat customers like this . Terrible customer service.

I ordered a blood glucose monitor kit from Boots on 1 Dec. It is now 9 Dec and nobody can tell me what has happened to my order. Incredible.

It is completely impossible to speak to anyone in 'Customer Service', they just never puck up. I've also emailed my complaint, received a case number, but to date heard absolutely nothing back from them. They owe me £50 and I'm beginning to think I'll never get my refund. What on earth can I do to resolve this? I always thought Boots was a trusted retailer, but I've now lost faith in them.

Terrible service, nobody answers telephone for customer services also. This has turned into the worst chemist on the planet !!! Thanks to investors and buyers of the chain we have lost valuable service as it was intended to be. Will not shop in Boots again and neither should anyone else. !

I ordered some perfume for my wife two weeks ago. I was advised I could collect the perfume from their store on Friday 3rd of December. I went to the store to collect the perfume on the day stated to find the perfume had not been delivered. I sent an email to Boots customer services the same day and in reply was advised to give it another 72 hours for the delivery to materialise. 72 hours passed and I have therefore emailed customer services twice to ask for a full refund, this is a Christmas present and thefore I need to look at something else. To my disgust Boots have not replied to those two emails and this is not acceptable. Shame on you Boots!!

Half of the order missing two weeks after the supposed delivery date. No reply to my email queries and no one is picking up the phone. Non-existent customer service. Luckily these days there are dozens of online shops that stock same products so it is not difficult to switch to another supplier. I will not use Boots online shop again.

Wish I had read the reviews before ordering, won't use this service again! Place an order to be sent to store, after waiting for confirmation of delivery that never came I called in to be told it's still in warehouse and to ring up! Used the virtual customer service system it said it couldn't help with my query so I rang up on hold for 3/4 of an hour. Gave up. Only gave 1 star as that was the minimum...Boots you don't deserve that..shocking customer service! WATCH DOG!!!! Here I come!!!

Disgraceful Service. Ordered a couple of products online and was then told they had no stock. I had an email to say I would not be charged for the order but noticed the email doesn't reference a refund. This was 2 weeks ago and still refund. Tried to email them but no reply, have rang numerous amounts of time but just continually on hold. It's absolutely shocking service and certainly not the level of service I would expect from such a massive company. I've never had to wait this long for a refund. it's simply not good enough but what can you do if you can't though to anyone and no one answers your emails.
