“Had to order Dulux paint online - don't seem to stock the colour any more in store. Waited over a week for it to be delivered and realised that it did not come from B&Q directly but from a 'private seller'??? Ordered set of paint brushes at the same time and have not received them. Had to phone to find out where they were and spoke to someone who didn't understand English. Couldn't make sense of what they were trying to say, only that all their ordered products come from a variety of private sellers and things are sent out separately! Won't be ordering anything else online form B&Q. Rubbish delivery”

“If I could give 0 stars, I would They failed to deliver half our order, they informed us it would be delivered within the week. At the time of writing, we are over a week from the delivery date, one our 6th call to complain and we are told that there is nothing they can do, won’t deliver our missing items and won’t issue the refund. They do not care about customers and they will keep money that is owed. This is nothing more than theft.”

“Don't buy a voucher from B&Q expecting to be able to use it and buy what you like as it simply isn't possible. As a support worker for a gentleman who has COPD we steadily made our way through the store making sure he was doing ok, he got what he needed for his new home, arrived at the checkout, only to be told that the voucher could be redeemed on some things but not others. This was a huge deal for him and he had to leave the store empty handed. B&Q, your approach to disability is like something from the 1970s, your store in Yeovil has what seems like a permanently broken lift and you allow disabled customers to make what was in the case a colossal effort to get to the store in challenging circumstances only to tell the gentleman I was supporting that he couldn't use the voucher on some of the items, amateur, confusing, careless and zero customer care.”

“Got a gift card through blue light card as it had 5% discount and bought loft insulation. Later realised I didn't need it and returned the lot, which was an ordeal in itself as had three missed collections! So days off work, all day waiting etc. Then had to go in store to get a Credit note. You can't use the credit note online so went to order from the shop. You can't use to buy bulk items that come from third parties. Had to buy in smaller quantities to be able to use credit note, which cost me £46 more than ordering in bulk! Credit note expires end of 2025 and still has £ 210 on it! How am I going g to spend that amount in B&Q in 9 months?!! Absolutely appalling. Can't get a refund neither, stuck with it. Worst company ever, treats customers like dirt when there's a problem. No need to say, after this credit note I'll never shop in B&Q again”

“I ordered a 1.8 mtr. panel to be delivered , delivery was to be 2 days , on the day of delivery I received a text telling me the delivery had been cancelled for that day and would now be in a weeks time .they had charged £12 for delivery and did not offer any kind of compensation for the delivery failing . meantime I've had to cancel any plans and trades arranged for fitting [not good] . the delivery would have taken about a half hour as I live about 3 miles from the depot. I have since looked at wicks the same panel at the same price delivered the next day for £5 less , needless to say I wont be shopping here again , customer service stinks, even 1 stars too much, at time of posting its been over a week and still waiting .still 3 day till new delivery day.”

“Very poor customer service. Received an incorrect item on 30/01/2025. Almost three weeks later it still hasn't been collected for return. Called Customer Service and was told I didn't pass the 'security question', and would have to call back. A complete waste of time.”

“Karcher A5 Classic Pressure Washer. Great piece of kit replacing my 35 year A114 Model. No problem with the rigid power hose as some complain about !!! Just unwind in a corkscrew motion with gentle pressure , too much pressure will cause it to kink as complained about. A little patience & common sense & you won’t have a problem. Pressure achieved with the included spray heads @ rotary cleaners is amazing making light work of cleaning my resin drive. Well done Karcher. Many thanks John King P S Good deal @ B&W with a 15 per cent price reduction.”

“Bought a front door from B&Q and it arrived with 3 major faults. Received a reply 3 days later saying 'the issue is being escalated' and they'll be in touch. Over a fortnight later, not a word! The door was attempted to be stolen from our porch so we moved it inside the flat. We still have an outside door in the middle of our hall, and we have young kids and a pet in the house so this isn't safe. All because b&q can't provide any sort of solution to selling a faulty product. Not to mention the £400 it was worth which we worry we might not see back. We could really do without this stress just now, and we will never buy anything from this company again. I'd advise everyone else to do the same because ordering from them has been a nightmare.”

“I spent over £100 on paint and decorating supplies. The paint arrived leaking in box (only apparent once I’d opened the box and covered myself and my flooring). B and Q sounded helpful at first but have missed two collection times and have failed to call me back twice! Refund not forthcoming despite pictures being sent as requested”

“I ordered many items some of which were supplied direct some from a third party, the items from the third party supplier are two weeks overdue and neither B and Q or the third party supplier Home Direct are responding to my request for an update or refund. There's a lot to be said for shopping local”

“Well done MJ communication skills were impeccable I would like to express my gratitude to the young lady MJ at the Edge Lane Liverpool store today who was so very helpful, nothing was a problem. MJ gave 100% customer service to my husband and I. Our visit was a very pleasant one and management should look after her she is a goid’in.. Pat on the back to MJ keep doing what your doing. We will be back at B & Q Edge Lane.”

“Appalling service, sent me partial item, nobody in customer service tries to help, got a really rude rep on the phone who was speaking over me, won’t issue refund, holding my money for a month when they cannot send me a replacement. I would avoid buying anything from them online.”

“I suggest all you guys out there who have a bad experience with B&Q email the CEO of B&Q Graham Bell which I did a few days ago. A month ago WE went into B&Q and saw the tiles we wanted, the 11 boxes we needed were physically in front of us and were booked for delivery. A delivery message arrived but there was an excuse for not delivering unavailable amazing as the stock was right in front of us. I personally believe the stock was given to another order. I contacted the customer service 3 times but they have not a clue what customer service is. The tiles we ordered are at other depots near reading but nobody has thought of taking those tiles to fulfil our Order I have had no communication from B&q So I am hoping the Ceo gets back to me.”
