A huge thank you to John Kinge

A huge thank you to John Kinge! I only needed a larder unit and a couple of wall units. John went over and above to help me meet my budget and made the whole experience very easy! He was so knowledgeable and really cared about making sure I was able to get what I needed! I can’t thank him enough. Thank you so much…can’t really say much more other than John was amazing!!

Lovely chair

Lovely chair. Was supposed to be next day delivery but didn't arrive at store until 2 days after that. They used yodel for delivery to their store so wasn't technically their fault.

Thank you Denise at Basingstoke

It can be tad bit upsetting when you can't find an item in the store which shows online that there are 7 in stock. What's happening? Someone should either stock-up the shelves or update your stock online in time.
Even when I was going to leave your Basingstoke store, your staff Denise didn't give up. She went through the store, went to the back and eventually came back with a ladder to check the top shelf as a last resort and finally found 1. She was relentless and professional about it too. Thank you once again Denise.

If your black don’t come here

Manager didn’t ask me if I was waiting for click and collect instead went to the gentleman behind me and the woman behind her and totally ignored me. Interestingly I’m black he ignored me and my son and served the rest of the white customers behind me. He heard I picked up an order didn’t apologise and refused eye contact , disappointing

Such a shame that my local Southampton…

Such a shame that my local Southampton branch closed. Homebase is great value for money and well made products.
Well done Basingstoke click & collect..only downside no customer rest rooms. No fun when you already know the return journey motorway is at a standstill

Extremely helpful

I went into my local Homebase store looking for a repair kit for a hole in my bathroom plastic panel. Louis was extremely helpful and informative. He showed me some kits but unfortunately wasn't quite right. He looked online to see if there was anything in particular I needed to use. I left the store feeling I had been listened too. He is a credit to the store. His name was Louis. Please can you make sure he gets recognised for his excellent customer service.
Very happy customer.
