Terrible experience. I placed an order for some Wessex LED GU10 bulbs online (14/09/21). After placing the order, a message appeared on the screen "The order was not valid please try again". So I did and I obtained the same message. However, I then received a text notification from my bank for 2 separate payments taken by toolstation for the 2 purchases (£5.98 x2) but I didn't receive any confirmation email. Why was the money taken? I immediately went into the toolstation store in Huddersfield and notified Vicky the manager and showed her my banking app and evidence of the 2 payments. She called customer services and they stated I would recieve a refund after 2 days, she wrote this on the back of my receipt for the bulbs I then purchased instore. 1 week later I have recieved nothing. I went back into store today and the store assistant called customer service again and I was once again fobbed off. I just want my money back!!! Why should a customer have to chase after their stolen money??? Sort it out toolstation!!! You're the ones who had a system problem on the day of my purchase. GIVE ME MY REFUND.

I did not know exactly what i needed for the job i was doing. Ellis told me to purchase ALL the items that we spoke about, in the knowledge that I could return ALL the items (in good condition) within 30 days for a full credit. It worked - well don TS

Awful customer service from Simon the Director! Was at a Toolstation the other week and was served by Simon the Director. He said he was helping teach the other staff in branch when we spoke. He got my order wrong, wasn't wearing a mask and was spitting a lot when talking, had ketchup or blood on his tie & was swearing at other staff. I was shocked! I walked straight out and went to Screwfix. The item was cheaper and the service was amazing. Seems like Toolstation isn't a great place to buy or work. Avoid! Thanks. Billy Hawkins

On Friday 13th having drive. From Shepton mallet depot who were helpful but didn’t have the item in stock. I got to Bridgewater depot at 1715 to find the store closed. I went to the car park where there was two members of staff. I asked why the store was shut when it said 1900 and I had had order confirmation. It was explained to me that they weee very short staffed and for reasons to do with that they had shut early. I needed the item as I was leaving early in the morning for a caravan holiday. I asked if the manager was still around to which the man said he was the manager. He then kindly went in and got my electric hook up. So thank you PAUL, for your customer care even after a long day which obviously had been syressful and also thank you to the other lovely member of staff who’s name I didn’t get. You Rock Paul and our holiday has been great so far. Jane Higgs

Wrong item sent. 30 minute wait on phone. 3 day wait for email response. Tweeted and response within few minutes asking for order number and address. Sent order number, response we do not recognise that order number. Sent photo of invoice and they found it and did arrange for right item to be sent. Why are they only efficient when posted on a social media site that can be seen by anybody. They then asked me for a review, received a response that it did not meet their guidelines and so unable to post. Their customer service is terrible and lots of items are not in stock. Used to be a good company but have sadly gone downhill recently.

Elgin branch. Served by Hugh who is a new member of the excellent staff. Knowledgeable, not intimidating to non trade customers. Excellent experience. He and his colleagues make buying light bulbs and tubes an absolute pleasure

Appalling, ignorant, obnoxious, rude and awkward staff at the Boston branch with perhaps one exception. Deliberately refused a refund on an unused/unopened item as the 'manager' didn't like my face with the excuse that they don't take items back if they're unwanted so quoted the UK Consumer law to her then she decided they didn't have any cash! Kept me standing there 40 mins even though I explained I'm disabled with knee problems just to satisfy some sadistic quirk she has. The nicest thing to say about their 'friendly and helpful staff' is that they are the most horrible and repulsive people I've ever had the misfortune to encounter.

Really bad experience. I made on order online, got e text message saying it’s ready for collection and when I went to collected they said they only have one. Time consuming. Unhappy builder.

Ordered materials for a job on Friday 23rd June and paid the extra for Saturday AM delivery, it’s now the 27th June and no sign of any materials. Don’t waste your time or money with this company your better of going to a reputable company if you want good service
