i will never order from argos again i was given a time and date for my new fridge freezer to be delivered and it wasn't delivered and no phone call explaining why it wasn't delivered i had to call to find out it was out of stock even though they confirmed a date and time dont bother with this company they obviously do not care about there customers so do yourself a favour and order elsewhere.

I tried to order 12 rolls of wallpaper online, but the drop down quantity only allows a maximum order of 10!! I called customer services who placed two separate orders to accommodate my 12 roll requirement. They took my payment, even though my order wouldn't be arriving for a while. I received 2 texts the following day, saying my orders would be delivered directly from the supplier, by 18/09/17. I've just received a further 2 texts saying it's delayed and may arrive up to 02/10/17!! Now I have decorators booked for next week, and no wallpaper. I've called and cancelled the order, but it will take 5-7 days for the refund to be processed. Absolutely shocking service.

I bought 2 more wireless repeaters on-line only to find that they were not compatible with my existing repeaters. This could only be established by putting one in the socket and then seeking help when it wouldn't work. Now Argos are refusing to refund me because it's '.used'. I could understand if it were food or some types of clothing or jewelry I could understand it but when its just an electronic plug that has been plugged in once..................Clearly doesn't pay to be honest either. I will never use them again and now I've seen Argos' review rating I wish I'd checked it before.

DO NOT buy white goods from Argos. They pass your phone number on to D&G insurance who DO NOT stop ringing you, they are phone pests.

Absolutely disgusting service. Ordered and paid for item for same day delivery, its now 1pm the following day I've been on hold for 30minutes and told it should be here soon????? whatever that means. First customer service person was very rude and shouted over me when I was trying to talk.2nd person says even though they acknowledge I paid for the service (delivery)after kicking off the best they can offer is a refund of the delivery charge, No apologies even though they acknowledge the item was out of stock at there depot.(not my problem when they had taken my money already) wont ever use them again.""

I have ordered a cooker and was told the delivery will be between 12-2 and delivery driver will call 1 hour before arrival (recieved a text at 11:43), which means I should expect the delivery anything after 12:43, delivery arrived at 12:29 driver called me and I have asked if he could wait 10 minutes and he said no. I have spoken to customer service and explained the situation, then customer service advised that driver will be back in 15 minutes. I have timed myself from work to home and it took be 9 minutes. once I arrived home called the driver to find out where he was, he said that he came back 20 minutes ago. how can he be back 20 minutes ago unless he can time travel. I have spoken to customer service again and they advised that they could not do anything about. I have no cooking equipment, I have paid engineer to install the cooker which I will loose on top of all the stress of moving to new home and work.

Ordered bedroom furniture for my daughters new bedroom. Only half of it arrived as it was spilt into 2 deliveries. The second delivery never turned up today as stated it would in the confirmation email. I had to phone customer services and reorder. I'm heavily pregnant (2 weeks till due date) and my husband is terminally ill. I therefore had friends over today to help with construction of the furniture. Now Argos can't get it to me until 3 days before my due date!! I'm struggling with hospital appointments for myself and my husband and I'm unsure if I will be able to find help again on that date. What did argos say "sorry we can waiver the delivery charge but nothing else" Now I'm looking at trying to juggle a new baby, the school runs and trying to sort out my babies bedrooms whilst looking after my husband!!! NOT GOOD ENOUGH ARGOS

Ordered an exercise bike from Argos, waited 3 weeks for delivery. When it turned up I assembled the bike but found it to be faulty Phoned Argos, they said they would pick the bike up and replace it the same day The truck turned up but no replacement. Phoned Argos, they told me it would be a further 3 weeks for the replacement. Phone Argos again they told me to telephone this particular tel no. To sort out a refund After keeping me on the phone for some time and refusing to give me confirmation of a refund, I found out that the tel no. They gave me was a premium no. Which cost me £15. They also promised me a £10 voucher for all the trouble I never received any voucher. I would never ever use Argos again, I do not trust anything their customer service says. They were very rude no most unhelpful. "

I purchased the garden furniture set which arrived damaged. After three attempts and replacing various items they all arrived damaged so I gave up and requested to return the item for full refund. I was refunded about one quarter of the value of the item and two months later I'm still chasing for the rest. I have made over 25 phone calls even emailed in an official complaint and still Argos have not been able to communicate with me and resolve the issue, the customer service here appears to be completely broken and nobody cares about the customer and the customer having been communicated with. I am lost for words and we'll never purchase from Argos again. I am now seeking to address the issue through my credit card company.

""Bought a washing machine at the local Argos store on the 29 august.i explained that my flat was upstairs and was promised delivery guys wuld carry it up the stairs. My wife took a day off work to wait for the delivery.When they came they refused to carry it up the stairs due to health and safety reasons.I was then told the washer would be redelivered on the 2 Sept. Waited till 4 o clock no sign of them.Customer services useless don't care less.went back where I bought the washer from and asked for refund.Never again.

Delivery service and customer service atrocious. Paid to have old freezer taken away - drivers took outside part only and refused to take shelves, baskets etc so I now have to pay council £25 for collection. Also refused to unpack new appliance - obvioulsy happy to leave a disabled pensioner to unpack a freezer taller than herself, which I can't do. Customer service offered to collect and refund me (leaving me with no freezer) until they saw I paid by PAypal and then said they can't offer me a refund. So what did they offer - a £25 gift voucher to cover the cost incurred to get rest of old one removed!

Worst Customer Service Experience of my Life. I'm currently living with cancer but dealing with Argos is equally as painful. I was delivered a faulty fridge freezer. 90 minutes on the phone later Argos agreed an exchange. When the new one was delivered it was obviously a customer return as it was scratched, was missing parts, had no protective packaging and was also faulty. The old one was not taken away as Argos had promised. Argos agreed a refund with a manager William Hardie. On the day the fridge freezer was supposed to be picked up Argos didn't turn up! I have spent 16 hours - no exaggeration- on the telephone to try and arrange pick up and a refund. The staff always promise a course of action and then never actually follow through. Christine Cameron was rude, obnoxious, argumentative and frankly shouldn't be dealing with the public. She emailed me in block capitals like an angry 9 year old that she and Argos customer services would no longer help me and she has blocked me from sending her emails! All because she couldn't manage to arrange a refund. I may have understood if I'd have been rude but under the circumstances I've been nothing but patient. I am currently £234.98 out of pocket with 2 faulty fridge freezers one of which is in the dining room. The staff have no understanding of consumer rights. Christine Cameron told me I needed to phone Indesit for a refund. Basic training should cover the obvious fact that as I've paid Argos for the product and when I reported the fault within a day it is their responsibility to refund the customer. I've disputed the transaction on my credit card as frankly I'm at a loss as to what to do. Luckily I have an email from Christine Cameron agreeing a refund and then saying Argos won't deal with me to send to my credit card company. Despite agreeing a refund, because of their incompetence all they've arranged to do is pick up one of the fridge freezers (If they turn up as they didn't last time) and leave me with a faulty one. I'm 47 and this is the worst customer service I have ever received. This would be difficult for any customer but as I'm currently receiving chemotherapy for bowel cancer I really have more important things to deal with. As I'm unwell and can't work I can't afford to be out of pocket and not have a working fridge freezer.
