Brilliant service

Brilliant service, ordered at 9 am and 15 minutes later it was ready to collect.
HOWEVER hose didn't come with instructions and didn't fit the tap.
The tap extension also had no instructions and didn't fit any tap.
All a waste of money

Having items on display that we were unable to order In store was Al pain ! But item when it arrived was of a great quality.

The items were not available to order in store was most annoying having to ring every day to find out if item was in the country .

Customer Service - Jon at Homebase Bicester

Re. Jon @ Homebase Bicester provided best in class customer service. Website showed plenty of lawn mower blades in stock (nearest stocked location) and travelled 20miles to find none on shelves. Jon went above (literally climbed stairs!) and beyond to locate the blades. Thank you.

Silage not turf

Silage not turf! Purchased turf and brought it home and opened it immediately. It smelt dreadful!. It was nearly all black and dead. It was so decayed that is smelt of silage effluent. Phoned twice and then spoke to a very unhelpful young man. I am not willing to put this rubbish back in my car. Avoid! Never again.

No receipt

My order number is 578537387. Please email me a receipt ASAP

————————————————————

No receipt. Rang the store and they said they would send one but still no receipt!

You sent me a response (below) and I have followed the link and that was absolutely use at all. It tried to link me to a chat bot but that didn’t work and then it gave me advice about VAT receipts but no way of getting a receipt. Absolute waste of time! I STILL DONT HAVE A RECEIPT
