Bunch of liars. Parts missing from a bike box - a bike bought for my young son. The helpdesk said I'd need to travel to a store with my new bike (which wasn't built) and swop it for a whole new one, as it's not possible to get the parts separately. I don't drive, hence why I got Internet delivery, so I either had to get a bus or a lift from someone, and luckily I could get a lift. So Halfords helpdesk say they'll give me £10 voucher, when I first called them, and they agreed that I will get the bike built for me and that the store I'd chosen to get a replacement from would call me and give me the voucher upon arrival. After 2 days the store hadn't called me and so I went there and they had nothing to say why I hadn't been, just no answer to the question, and as result, after waiting in there an hour overall I had to take a new box with bike away and build the bike myself and I never received the £10 voucher, even after chasing again. The helpdesk fed me lies saying I'd get the voucher at the store and the store said I get it online. My email to the company this week has been ignored. I wasted an hour on the phone to the helpdesk arguing, as all I wanted eas parts delivered, but they said it has to be a whole new box with bike in. So, order via the Internet at your own risk, it seems. I nevet even asked for compensation, the person on the helpdesk probably just said it to appease me. The helpdesk also didn't call me back when they said they would.
I also find it unbelievable, and dangerous, that they sell some bikes without instruction manuals, this kids bike for example. And you can't get them online either. I worked it out but some people might not have the knowledge, and why should they have to pay £10 to get a store to build it.
Unsurprisingly, I'll never use Halfords again and will share my story.
