“Used Halford Mobile who was dreadful to say the least referred me to the local Halford workshop to carry out the repairs he was unable to do, Went to the Halford garage in Woolwich but they just as bad as as the mobile fitter as soon as i turned up at the woolwich site all you can hear is swearing and unhappy customers. Low and behold they could not fix it either spoke to a customer in reception who was having the same issue they said they had found a local Garage in Welling that could fix/repair anything she had her invoice in hand getting a refund from Halford's due to an incomplete repair. I took her advise and took my car to the garage she suggested who were spot on with customer service and prices fix car same day very disappointed in Halford but lease got a decent garage found from it ( garage i used to fix Claremont Motor Engineers Welling ) Halford great advertising on TV but your services dont match up big boys pushing there way in but so under delivering.”

“Disgraceful service. My daughter with her 2 young children bought oil for her car that was completely run out. She could not afford to pay the £5 for lifting up bonnet, taking off cap and pouring oil in. They would not even attend whilst she did it whilst looking after 2 under 7s to just confirm she puts it in the right container in car. How bad is that!!!!!! hence we had desperate call from her in panic on where to pour it whilst in hurry to attend an appointment.”

“Categories Blog My Reviews My Settings Help LOG OUT Paul c GB For businesses Paul c United Kingdom 1 Review If I could give 0stars I would I have… If I could give 0stars I would I have never been treated like this in a store or anywhere in fact so after purchasing few cleaning and polishing products for my car I was happy but having realised one of them was not suitable I did get a refund and few days later partner then brought something else witch was not suitable for my car so I went to the store today and asked if I could get a refund or exchange them and was told no repciets but told get bank statement and they could give refund so after feeling let down went to leve when I was approached by members of staff saying that I had not paid for the item as I pointed out I was after refund was treated like a criminal and threatened with police asked them to look at CCTV but to no luck so I have bank statement showing purchase once I get refund I will never use them again it's disappointing and discusting how I have been treated like a criminal the was a member of staff that see me walking in the store but was to busy smoking and eyeing up the lads in car absolute joke”

“I ordered a roof rack and roof box. Item was due to arrive 2 days after purchase. I received only 1 of 3 boxes for the roof rack and roof box never came. I spoke to their customer services who stated I would need to contact their courier as they "won't get an answer for some time". I asked for a refund as I am moving and so the delivery would be to late. They refused. I asked if I could pick up the same item from my local store instead but they refused. Absolutely useless, will never use them again.”

“Absolutely appalling customer service from the store management team all the way through to customer service. After allowing a bike to leave store not meeting current legislation, incorrectly fitting accessories and falsifying pre release checks I had to go to another store who were shocked and had to fix the issues of incorrect fitting snd the fact the bike was not fit to be sold as the gears weren’t properly connected. Customer device hide behind not acknowledging any of these points and saying we have offered a 30 Halfords voucher. I want apologies and answers and proper support but it doesn’t exist. Dedicated bike stores are more expensive but the service is worth it not having to fight and get what’s right.”

“Took my car in for service and MOT my appointment was 11.20 by the time 4.40 arrived I had not heard anything from them so I rang them to be told my car Was not ready and it would need two new rear tyres to pass its MOT. I Said ok I will send for 2 new Bridgestones he said but your car will be staying here overnight. When will it be ready I said he replied it will be done tomorrow.tomorrow arrives I hear nothing from them all day, gave them up to 5pm and my daughter took me there lo and behold my car was parked up and done. Here is the best bit the 2 Tyres were Firestone a cheaper alternative when I spoke with the Manager he was very rude. I drove away and the next day just out of curiosity I dipped the oil you guessed it it was pure black and near to minimum on the dipstick they have 100% not done an oil change please do no use Halfords Northendon ever.”

“Received an email saying items had been dispatched and would be delivered next day. Waited in all day, no delivery received. No delivery following day or any email to advise of delay. Tried to track order with courier but unavailable. Phoned Halfords customers service to be told there was a delay in my delivery now and that I would hopefully receive an update within 72 hours on when my items might get delivered. Unhappy customer”

“Bike serviced using the government voucher scheme. Came back worse than it went in despite all new gear and brake cables, chain etc. Front tyre had 10 psi in it, first ride out on bike 3 month after servicing lost all gears to rear set within 10 miles, front set chain slips off ring and jams up. Hopeless beyond words.”

“Horrible service... I brought a bike on Monday 19th July and arrived damaged. i called Halfords and sent pictures of the damage and they quoted a 24 hour pick up service, no one came to collect the bike. i then called on Tuesday and still got quoted a 24 hour pick up still no collection, the case was then escalated it's now Thursday and still no pick up in sight. this has messed up my week as we finally had sunshine and the plan was to go out with my family. NEVER GOING TO BUY FROM HALFORDS AGAIN!!!!!”

“I bought some car polish from their Harrogate store but unfortunately 1 bottle was slightly damaged and I didn't notice it on purchase. The staff were really helpful and exchanged the item with no fuss whatsoever. They were extremely courteous and I will shop there at every opportunity.”

“I have been trying to contact someone to hear my complaint. I've tried in writing and phone. I have a genuine complaint. My complaint went through manager at store was whitewashed. It is an utter disgrace the experience I have had and it is still going on. How do I speak to someone in authority who will deal with my complaint.”

“I completed my order 11/5/2021 and thought great that’s a good deal. Every time I arranged a date and changed working commitments and social commitments I was dropped in by Halfords the morning of fitment. This went on several times until I asked Tyres on the drive if they could get the tyres first then contact me with fitment date as they said the supplier didn’t drop the tyres off on the morning of fitment. Tyres on the drive stated they could only arrange fitment dates and if the supplier does not drop the tyres off that day there is nothing could be changed they went onto say there was no guarantees this would continue to happen where they were cancelling me. I asked for a refund and after about 10 hrs of my time and phone calls speaking to several different call handlers and being promised over 3 weeks I would receive my refund. We are now 7/7/2021 and a call for over 45 minutes with no answers to why I haven’t received my money and once again promising I would receive this in 3 to 5 days however after speaking to a manager Melissa on the 1/7/2021 who promised the same information this whole experience has got me stressed and exhausted with still no £650 refund into my account. This is the worst service I have ever had in 48 years of my life and would never recommend anyone to use tyres on the drive and after being a customer of Halfords for decades I will never use the branches again. Deplorable Service”
