Ordered by phone, paid by same. Item in store took a whole mins. Staff carried to and put in my car. Rate 5 Star Covid or not enjoyed experience.

Purchased a Rise & Recline leather armchair in Feb 2020. I have severe Cerebral Palsy and have to use this type of chair to help transfer to/from powered wheelchair. The recline mechanism has failed so contacted Argos, who referred me to Castelan (their insurance repair coy). Told by them that because item is still under 12months old, the warranty(Argos) should sort out problem, but Argos insist Castelan do the repair. I need this chair fully functioning ASAP. Argos currently not taking phone calls only web chat, if you have plenty of time to waste waiting for a reply.

i tried to simply find out where a chair was manufactured i tried by phone i tried by email i tried on the argos question site, i was either unable to speak to anyone in customer service or receive a reply to any of the emails i sent to 3 different different departments if that is the standard of argos customer service [ it makes me think you do not know where you get your stock from or dont care ]

Ordered a washing machine. 10 day wait for delivery date. 7am-7pm time slot on the day! The delivery driver called at 6.45pm to say they wouldn’t be delivering. Received a text message to say my new delivery date would be a further 10 day wait... called customer service. no apology, and couldn’t care less when I had explained I’d taken a day off work for delivery. Also 37 weeks pregnant, so can’t wait a further 10 days. Was on the phone for 2hrs to speak to a manager. Had to hang up and request via live chat to cancel Order and refund. Awful service received. I have cancelled my order, and re ordered from another company who can deliver in 48hrs. Safe to say I won’t be using Argos again.

I ordered a flymow yesterday morning on line at 11.11am paid for it. And the only slot was between 7pm & 11pm but alas my order never arrived tried to get in touch but had to wait till this morning which I was told it had been cancelled and would get my £83.95 back in 5 working days as you cancelled my order why have I got to wait to get a refund. I think your service is terrible not a tex nor phone call nor a email telling me it wouldn’t come. I don’t think I will use internet again to order anything from you again ( you get no STAR from me.

Went to Kilburn Argos from Watford as only place that had my much wanted item It was a heavy item and they did not offer a delivery option of the heavy item Found a car park in Kilburn, which had a delivery door of Argos in the basement, the friendly car park man in market car park offered to help me with package to car from said door! Went into Argos and asked them if they could put my item in the lift to the basement , No! Health and Safety , why? ‘Can I put the item in your lift to the basement car park? No! Why? Health and safety Then I asked for a trolley to take to car park myself, oh ok, but you need to leave a deposit, ok that’s fine, then ‘No, sorry you can’t have a trolley after all, due to covid😂 After several discussions amoungst themselves including a manager Are we not a loud to have trolleys at the supermarket? You couldn’t make it up When I explained that I had travelled from Watford, that didn’t offer delivery of heavy item , finally one of the men must of decided it was crazy ,what they were saying, and kindly agreed to put the box in the lift! Would like to say thank you to that shop Assistant Who saved the day and had common sense , Argos please don’t sell items that are heavy and can’t be transferred to a nearby car/van and maybe mention on your website if your store does not have a nearby car park or trolleys Argos please give your employee a medal and promotion for basic customer service & Common sense

I will not be dealing with Argos ever again and will tell everyone I know to avoid them. I bought a range cooker form Argos and it arrived with a fault fan. We waited a week for them to send an engineer to fix the fan who found that the cooker needed to be replaced. We then had to pay for an engineer to disconnect the oven ready for collection. We waited a week for the replacement and paid for our engineer to come back to fit it. Whilst our engineer was fitting it he found numerous issues as well as an electrical fault that tripped the new house wiring. I called Argos for a full refund as I have no faith that the next cooker they send will be any better. I have just been told that i will have to wait a week with a huge range cooker sat in the middle of my kitchen before they can collect it - I have a 6 month old baby and we are still without a cooker 4 weeks after we first ordered a £600 cooker from Argos. The worst service I have ever encountered.

Absolutely shambolic pretence of a company. I have tried to place three separate orders online and each time they have taken the money but not processed the order. When you eventually get through to customer service to complain and ask them to process the order at their end they just refuse and say you have to try it again at your end so they can take your money again! They should not be allowed to advertise that you can order online if the system is so flawed that it takes your money but doesn’t process the order. They now even have it set up as an automatic response online that if they’ve taken your money and not processed the order then you’re money will automatically refund within 5 days. How about fixing the bloody ordering system in the first place. Just a bunch of inept useless people. Very very poor. The death of the high street can’t come soon enough for this backwards, unresponsive and useless company. I will never place any more business with them and advise that no else should either. Save yourself the time and trouble and just hide your money away from yourself for five days and you’ll have the same result as if you’d placed an order with them!!

EXTREMELY POOR DELIVERY TEAM Purchased a dishwasher & recycling service to remove the old one. Due to the covid concerns, I disconnected the dishwasher myself the night before and left in a lightly sheltered area at the front of the house and turned over to drain as much water out as possible. When the delivery crew arrived, they asked if it had been left out all night. When I said it had, they refused to collect as they said that it would be wet. It was dry in the morning and I can't be certain that no rain got to it, but it seemed about as dry as a used dishwasher could be to me. I explained that I had already turned it over to drain as much excess as possible and that it was not any more wet than any used dishwasher would be. The lazy turds disagreed and still refused to collect. There were no mention about there being issues leaving outside when I made the order, only that it had to be drained. Draining any dishwasher to complete dryness is a near impossibility and turning it over outside drained more water than would have been possible if they came into the house to uninstall then load straight into the van. I suspect, it was one of their first deliveries and they were looking for any excuse not to load my used dishwasher onto the van and in their way. I had actually made their job a straight forward and easy one by disconnecting myself and having ready to go but was let down by poor service and attitude. When I voiced my dissatisfaction, the driver asked if I would be willing to pay for any damages caused by my 'wet' dishwasher to other customers goods in the van! At this point it was turning into an argument and he came back with his sidekick (small balding fellow with a face like he had a mouthful of wasps) for backup. The pair of them left shaking their heads like a couple of useless bouncers and me with an old dishwaher at the front door. If any water at all is an issue for their collection service, I would suggest the following: a different van should be used, they should have a means of wrapping to contain any water or they should not offer the service at all. Coupled with that, I also sat on hold trying to speak with their Customer Service for an hour to arrange a different collection date to be met with a dead line! Also, very frustrating and poor service. I will not be purchasing any large items requiring delivery from Argos again.

Ordered 2 beds that were due to be delivered in July. According to Argos they have delivered them. Not sure where as it wasn’t to me. After asking me numerous times if my neighbours have them (they don’t) they have now decided to tell me they have a signiture (I’d love to know whose, it’s certainly not mine and as we’re in the middle of a pandemic and no one is supposed to be accepting signatures!) but they won’t let me have sight of this and have instead said that this means they have definitely delivered to me???

Unable to order on-line as website would not process payment on any of our three accounts. In-store website would not recognise postcode but did when assistant put-in full address. Delivery text had blanks fir third party delivering it and blanks as to which website to track it on. Argos live chat too busy to speak and held for 30 minutes on customer services line and spoke to nobody. Parcels arrived without notice to an elderly persons flat. Well done Argos!
