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

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.

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.

I have arrived to Boots in Castle Quay in Banbury at 14:01 and asked this young ladie in green jumper and wearing eye glasses for a prescription. The young lady told me that itwas not ready and that it would take a few hours to be ready. I went back homme and as I was entering the house at around 14:30 a message arrived on my mobile telling me the prescription was ready. I went back to boots and on my arrival the young lady mentioned above was having a lough with other staff as on the previous time and a man with white coloured hair was at the counter. I told him that his colleague told me it would be ready only in a few hours and he became rude and harrogant anf throw the medicines at me. Clearly the staff at this farmacy boots store have a culture of being rude, harrogant and desrespecting the custmers for no reason. As I told the white hair coloured man, his colleague should have asked me to wait and not telling me that it would take a few hours when in fact it took a few minutes. As for this white coloured hair man he should have appologised for what she did but instead he behaved in the most incompetent way by becoming rude, harrogant and threw the medicines bag at me. It was the first time they behaved that way, another one will not be tolerated as I will move to another farmacy. This mans behaviour was also a very bad example for the young lady, he clearly showed that hge is not fit for the job and should not be dealing with public.

Boots Ireland has cancelled my Christmas, I ordered online the entirety of my Christmas presents for family and friends, with a delivery date of December 23rd. Why the hell take Christmas orders if you can’t guarantee them for Christmas ?? I have tried emails phone calls and even store visits, but no reply from anyone, nor did anyone in store care. In the end the only people that could give me answers were a post, who confirmed the order as of today Christmas Eve, hasn’t even been posted by Boots. So you took my money for Christmas presents and literally couldn’t be bothered even to tell me, answer a phone call or reply to an email that they wouldn’t be here for Christmas. If I could give no stars for this I would. Absolutely devastated and let down. I’ll never use or recommend boots to anyone ever again.

Ordered 18th December for collection 23rd December. Dispatched but not delivered to store 24th December. No email sent about a delay. No remedial action from customer services. No promised call back from customer services. Same problem I encountered in August and assuming it’s another theft from the depot., Wasted Christmas Eve morning trying to speak to someone, both in store and online. Dreadful customer service again. Expect compensation this time.

Ordered well in advance for Christmas. It's now the 23rd no correspondence from them, called their 'help' centre (Ai annoyance) to be told they couldn't call the store. Asked for a refund and they processed a replacement. Called again (another 10mins of Ai and menus) only to be told in a jolly manner it'll be refunded and not replaced. Absolute joke, I won't trust these clowns with orders at Christmas again.

Ordered a high value package of items in October which came opened with one item missing,also not one day delivery as I paid for. Despite sending pictures within 10mins of receipt proving damage and reporting missing item they have repeatedly declined my claim. I am £130 out of pocket and they wont listen to me, head office are no help and are rude and incompetent, would it be ok if I went into their store and walked out with an item of the same value without paying of course it wouldnt. I am going to log with trading standards, action for fraud and small claims court. Absolutely disgraceful I will never shop with them again,research online and you will find loads of customers are having the same problem !!!!

So I started my complaints direct with boots in August in numerous ways! Even given a complaints number. No one responded. 2 months later I use Resolver to complain and again 2 months passed and no response. Left review on Trust Pilot and their response was unbelievable - stating I should try all those methods of contact all over again!!!!! Boots you are shameful.

I am both very angry and disappointed at the Boots on-line ordering system. I have twice tried over two days (Friday 28th November and Saturday 29th November) to place an order but my payment was refused on both occasions. I phoned the customer service department to ask why but they had no idea for the reason, only suggesting that I re-enter my address details and that there must be a glitch on your system; on the second occasion I was told the reason might be that I was spending (trying to!) more than usual and that I would now be locked out of my account for 72 hours and to try again then. I wanted to take advantage of the Black Friday offers but by then the expiry date for the offer would have passed and despite you having a record of my attempt to place an order the offers would not be available. On this call I was also informed that my click and collect order would not be ready until Monday 8th December which was too late as some items were for presents to be given on the previous weekend. My husband has now opened his own account with Advantage card and he was now able to order the items on my behalf on Sunday 30th November using two orders. He has already been notified that these are both ready for collection having been told by your helpdesk they would not be available before 8th December. Having placed his order my husband has already received texts to say that the order was ready for collection. What is wrong with your system? In the course of my phone calls I tried to find whether my address for my Advantage card was correct and how to alter my credit card details as you appeared to have an out-of-date card on your system. None of your assistants could help and I could find no way to correct this on your web-site. Please address these issues. To add insult to injury, the two failed orders appeared on my credit card statement as paid even though your system would not allow me to order the goods and your assistants told me that the payments had been declined. An IMMMEDIATE credit is required.

1/5 — Missing Items & No Resolution My order 779944541 arrived missing items worth £153.66, and Boots have refused to refund me. They could not provide any photographic proof of delivery but still rejected my claim. I’ve been left out of pocket with no support from customer service. Very disappointed.

In terms of product knowledge and customer service, Boots in Paddington Station are useless! I needed an emergency supply of hearing aid batteries, but, when I showed the assistant the existing battery and its packaging, I was told that they didn't know if their own-brand batteies were compatible, and that I should look online, where it would also be cheaper...!

I had a terrible experience trying to link the app with my advantage card. Phoned the Boots central number. The first member of staff was totally useless. I kept having to repeat my card number then he put me back in the queue AGAIN rather than on hold. I felt he was either drunk or on drugs. I've now been told I've lost all my points as I'd not used the card in over a year (a lie). Boots was where I shopped for Xmas gifts. No more. Plus the fragrances are cheaper in the Fragrance Shop - even using the Boots offers! No more. This customer has had enough.

Received an offer via email for instore use, this offer showed a clock counting down as the offer was only available for 1 day. Went into store after work, queued at till where only self service was available. Had a problem with my Advantage Card not being recognised. Staff member informed me offer finished at 6pm and it was now 6.10pm. Unfortunately had no signal on my phone at the time but extremely disappointed to get home and see the offer/clock still showing as available. I have contacted customer services by email and can only assume it is AI as the response was completely irrelevant to my issue. A complete waste of time attending the store in the first place and bothering to email a complaint. Businesses like this do not deserve any customers.
