“Can you give no stars? Just phoned B&Q to confirm delivery of a heated towel rail that should have been delivered today (ordered 2 weeks ago) only to be told the order had been cancelled. No email, text or phone call to advise. And no refund! No senior managers in the store to speak to. What an absolute s**t show. Head office will be hearing from me.”

“I went to the store in Camborne this morning looking for green polyester based roofing felt . There was none available on the shelves yet online it had said that there were 46 available . There were two identical shelves of a cheaper variety adjacent to one another , one of those was sitting where the one I was looking for was supposed to be. I spoke to a store employee called Rich who checked on his in-store app and confirmed what it had said online . He went outside in the lashing rain and found the product I was looking for with no trouble . He was friendly , courteous and nothing was too much trouble , a credit to B and Q. I think people can be quick to complain when things are not right and slow to compliment when they are! So.....thanks Rich, your efforts on my behalf were much appreciated.”

“I placed an order mid April, got charged fully within few days. Scheduled delivery, got message when it will arrive. Book leave from work, waited all day, no delivery. Not even a phonecall. Took me 4 days to chase, rebooked delivery date, again took a day off and again no delivery. At no point was anyone from B and Q in contact with me. Spent time on chats and phone to hear we are sorry we are escalating it. Nothing. Cancelled order. Found out today that order wasn’t cancelled. Got a phonecall about delivery. Cancelled again. Got refunded partially for what I ordered. Took another phonecall to sort it out. Staff refused to tell me their name claiming it breaches their data protection. Yet they have all my details, I sliding what I ordered yet I had to tell them what I ordered. Will tell everyone about this experience and will never shop at B&Q again. Worst customer service and service in general. EVER”

“Bought a Cooke and Lewis sink which carried a 15 year guarantee, after 8 years its leaking from the corner. After many many calls and no positive response im now told I need a receipt as my order is on the old system. A big cop out if you ask me, they even tried to say that they may give me a proportion of the amount based on the time I've had it.....rubbish a guarantee is a guarantee and they couldn't show me this. This company are bandits, they take your money and have poor after sales”

“I visited your kitchen section today in Southend. No base units on shelves in three sizes I wanted. Found 3 staff sitting on computers where I couldn’t enter as all sealed off. Asked one of them (a young lady with blond hair) If she could help me. Very reluctantly said ok, in a tone that made me regret asking for help. Proceeded to the section in question and realised there were no sizes of units that we required. Said can’t get any down from top as machines all broken. I asked when more would be available... don’t know. ‘How do I buy them then?’ I asked... ‘Can’t help you, I don’t know!’ Her attitude was so rude and totally ruined my experience. I drove to Wickes in Rayleigh and obtained everything I needed but very helpful staff! Never again will I shop in B&Q Southend. Rude is not the word! Thanks for ruining my day with your sticking attitude!”

“Let me start by saying the only reason I have giving 1 star is because a star must be given! Myself and my boyfriend placed an order with B&Q Glasshoughton on the 29/12/2020. This has by far been the worst decision we have ever made! They measured our kitchen 75ml too tall and 600ml wider than it actually is, this meant when our kitchen arrived in tall units it had to be sent back and a reordered in standard size, which In turn meant having to wait weeks. We found out on the 3rd visit that the order had bring out in our joiners name, so they refused to speak with us about the issues. We had to go back in store with our joiner to change in to our name. Which turns out they did not do this. They then gave us the wrong delivery date for the correct size kitchen to be delivered. We again went back into store, this time we was informed the kitchen that they had tried to deliver was out of stock, and in fact not on a delivery van. We ended up going online and checking the store stock. We had to pick our own kitchen and have a discussion with the manger to let us take the kitchen we had picked home. We have been waiting for our oven to be delivered, this should have being done on Saturday the 17/04/2021 we was told the oven would 100% be with us due to all the previous issues. This was not the case I had to phone customer services, to be told that the oven was in fact out of stock, and would be delivered on the 12/05/2021. To which nobody within B&Q thought it was appropriate to inform us. The oven has not been delivered as promised.So after I decided to issue a complaint, today my joiner was contacted by B&Q regarding the complaint i the actual customer has raised, because the in store staff didn’t feel the need to update out contact details when previously asked. I have again had to phone customer services to raise my 3rd complaint, as B&Q have decoy to close the first two down with out speaking with me. Worst customer experience I have ever received in my life. I would 100% people pay that little bit extra and go to Wickes or Howdens.”

“Fobbed off with damaged sink - click and collect from Trowbridge so I didn't realize until I got home. The box was ripped apart, filthy and taped back together with Selotape. The sink is a black granite composite and had scratches all over and a corner knocked off. What a shower of con-merchants. Avoid them unless you can fully inspect the item on the day.”

“We visited North Shields store today. We were looking for information on Splashwall. Tish, from the department couldn’t have been more helpful, her product knowledge was great and gave us all the information we needed, she deserves a pat on the back.”
