I joined their VIP club in March when having a new puppy, got a few vouchers which I found to be quite useful. However once I updated their app, my account was lost and my vouchers were gone. Called their customer services and they send me my list of vouchers through email and said I can use them ins stores. However once I go to the store, they refused me to use it. Called their customer services again and said it is because I don’t have those voucher in my app which they failed to do this with my account. So what happens now is that I keep receiving email asking me to use the vouchers which I can’t use and can only see them going to expired. Second thing is that I bought an extension lead which was recommended by their sales. Happily used it for 5 mins before the lead cut my leg. This could have caused far much serious issue if it cuts a children. Called their centre about the low quality product but all I got is “you can’t refund a used product”. It only shows how lack of awareness in their products quality and have no intention looking into the matter. They always argue they are unable to find my transaction so that they couldn't proceed further which is an absolute joke. I bought their product using the VIP card, even their staff in the store could find my record. Only when their RUDE store manager comes in, suddenly my record is gone as if I did not buy the product from them. Which such kind of store manager, I highly doubt what kind of quality they are offering to their customers.

I ordered 2 30 litre sacks of cat litter through pets at hime app. For some inexplicable reason it kept showing the wrong delievery address. I corrected it but when I recieved the confirmation email the wrong address was on it. I went into my app to cancel the order there is no cancellation option . I tried to update my personal details their website is down so that's not possible. Next day Monday I tried to contact their customer service there is no phone number only live chat which I kept getting disconnected from. Eventually I was assured by an agent that the address was now changed to my address. This morning I recieved an email from DPD that the courier missed me and it was redelivered tomorrow with a photo of the wrong address. Not my house. I went through the entire rigmarole again. I tried ringing my local pets at home store and was I formed that under this dreadful new system he couldn't assist me and there's been numerous complaints from people. Pets at home are probley the worst customer service I've had the misfortune to experience & thats really saying something. There is absolutly no customer after care at pets at home. As things are right now I still don't have my order and I can't guarantee it will come to my correct home address when they redeliver tomorrow. In conclusion Pets at Hone after care are Absolute an rubbish service . Avoid! Avoid ! Avoid! I will never use this company again.

Easy repeat delivery date will slip and slip. I use repeat services with other places and never had the issues I have with Pets at Home easy repeats. Really confusing to find the repeat order to change on the app and website. App says the order is due on i.e. 18th, BUT this is when the payment is taken and not the order delivered. Delivery will then give you a new date i.e 20th. Delivery date 20th will give you a tracking number with DPD. This will then give you another delivery date 22nd. Really confusing to find the repeat order to change on the app and website. For example the moment your order is taken, delivered or not and the next order is earmarked for payment. You can change it to later but not earlier. Please note this is payment not delivery as said on the website/app. When I ran out of food and tried to change the date to earlier before the easy order was process this was not possible. ( even though payment had not been taken and I had over a week before the delivery date (payment) was showing) The change I made on the site for earlier delivery has shown for the next one. However I thought this was the delivery date it said delivery date. It is not it is the payment date. Delivery is a week later. I changed the frequency of the order for the next delivery to take in the actual delay of delivery (still awaiting this delivery) and found I could change it but the payment date was the same. Went to the option Next delivery date- Change date it does not let me change it to earlier. I can only change to later. So now I know again I will be out of food. I now know that this date is the take payment date and not when the food will be arriving. Add on that delivery time of about a week.

I'm sick to death now of having so many issues with easy repeat. You can't speak to anyone as you guys don't believe in speaking using your mouth . So many issues time after time after time. Food doesn't turn up. I've had to reset up my account so many times as welll. I just want to pay for the food and for the food to arrive. It isn't hard/difficult but you guys make it so hard. I should be able to forget about it not have days of trying to sort it

Dreadful service. Only received one cat’s flea treatment, and after weeks of emailing to no response and queuing in the online chat, I got nowhere. No refund, and no ability to sort on my account. Three weeks later, I’ve given up and blocked them from my bank, and set with Protect my Pet, which has been easy so far.

I have purchased many fish from pets at home which all died within 2 weeks to a month of owning them, I also bought a hamster cage which my hamster broke out of… the hamster I also purchased from Pets at home had to be put down within 10 months of owning due to a golf ball sized tumor on her face absolutely disgraceful do not recommend.

Subscription and save yes the customer subscribes and Pets at Home saves the money into their bank why because we don’t get the order and there is nowhere on their website in the account to cancel if you phone you can be on the phone up to half an hour and give in then you phone 01614866688 one receptionist just put you through to service which you sit on the phone no one answers so phone 01614866688 again you get the nice receptionist who takes your details and mobile number to give to service department for them to call back and wait just keep waiting they don’t call what a terrible company

We were offered assistance by Kelly. She was very pleasant and helpful. She also helped us to find and fit the harness for our dog

I ordered three dog food items via their online web service. While two were delivered in a somewhat timely manner (one package looking somewhat damaged), the 3rd went missing. Apparently the delivery company decided it was too damaged to be delivered and returned it. It is now 14 days later, I still have not received the missing item, and it appears impossible to contact their customer service. I only got an automated looking email telling me "This needs the human touch, use our live chat on the web site". Good joke, said live chat _always_ shows either to be offline, or most recently the live chat button doesn't even appear any more. I have also tried to contact their support phone number, but only ended up in an endless waiting loop. Worst customer experience ever, I'm about to ask my bank for a chargeback and will never buy from that company again.

Absolute rubbish I have been with Pets at home from day one of them opening as they have grown as a company the customer ethos has not grown as well very sad times as they have a multi-million pound turnover.Its not all about money when your losing loyal customers. I have a repeat order with Pets at Home and have for a long time sometimes it goes missing or it never turns up no help what so ever from website or in-store I have found another supplier a small privately run shop great people and I am saving time and guess what money so Pets at Home are not so big and mighty after all.

Awful customer service. Tried to cancel subscription and account (since they increased the price without any warning) but no option to do so on website. Sent order out even though I tried to cancel it through several different means within plenty of time. Rejected order when delivered and returned to depot. Have received no communication to say it has been received back or no refund. Have contacted customer service 4 times and have had no reply! I have now wrote to their customer service again to ask them to close my account but very doubtful they will reply. I never thought that trying to cancel a subscription would cause so much inconvenience and stress!! Please think twice before dealing with this company.

Absolutely shocking! Dreadful customer service. Stating that due to the system migrate that customers have to wait 7-10 days delay to receive your repeated order. If that is not bad enough i am currently on day 10 should have received my order on the 20th! Raised an escalation and complaint to just be completely ignored and said wait 7-10 days well I am on 10 days so where is my order. Would not recommend! If you want absolutely appalling customer service from the CS team and the escalation team be my guest otherwise don’t bother.

Shocking customer service, chat box does not help as you end up waiting in line to speak to someone and the line never moves. I have a discrepancy with my subscription on cat food. I cancelled last year and they are still taking the money out . What has happened to pets at home? It used to be great , now it is appalling. My advice find another outlet that runs professionally.

The store in Leamington and the staff are absolutely brilliant we just bought two guniea pigs and it was Georgia who served is credit to the store. Always had a postive experience in this store. Postive and friendly team.

I purchased 2 large cat litters, because it was on offer. Both bags shared 1 order number I received 1 bag. The chat doesn't connect because I have arthritis in the hands and can't keep up. Rang the shop and got told nothing I can do. Since chat was introduced the customer nor the agents has anyone to contact. So pets at home steal your money. Or contact trading standards, the deputy manager agreed these are my 2 choices.

Payment taken a week again but repeat order not delivered- no way to contact. Told to use chat function by store- waited an hour to connect only for the person to end the chat immediately. Dreadful faceless organization.
