Dreadful service. Online order indicated the product available in Biggleswade store. Was greeted by a sales assistant, who didn’t have a clue on ‘click and collect’ process, and informed me my product... See more

I wanted to pick up a bar b q late on Friday and staff member Nick couldn’t have been more helpful in discussing the varied bar b q’s in stock over the phone and subsequently putting it in my car. On Sunday we had to return as the hinges to attach the lid to the base of the bar b q were missing and again Nick was on duty and found where his colleague had kindly put replacements to one side for me when I called about the missing parts yesterday.
Just an all round great experience with both staff members who couldn’t have been more caring and polite. Well done Homebase Biggleswade and thank you from an Ely resident😊

Cashier with common sense

Firstly, the area I was shopping in, storage boxes, did look a bit like a Jumble sale, but I managed to find what I wanted at 20% off.
There was just one cashier open and the person in front was returning items, without a receipt. They decided they would have to search their phone for a bank statement. There was any almost audible sigh of relief from the queue, when the cashier, Caroline, asked them if they would mind moving to one side to do it so they could serve others

I collected 10 bags of manure in my car, but you’d had them stored in the rain, so the liquid out of them all ran into my boot! The average customer, when doing click and collect is going to be collecting stuff in their car, so it would be helpful (particularly with manure!) if you stored it somewhere dry

Click and collect took so long to find

We waited for about 15mins for a member of staff to try and find our order before she called for help where the other member of staff found it immediately

Time of visit 19:00hrs

Time of visit 19:00hrs. Easy to find products.

Customer service needs improvement, queue 9 people deep, only one operative doing refunds and sales. When asked if he could get anyone else to help, his response was that he is "the only one till trained". (One does wonder if said one till trained member of staff had to leave in an emergency or was taken ill, would they close the store? Im quite sure the regional managers would not look kindly on this!!
"Nick" was standing at the other end of the tills giving advice of a refund involving multiple receipts over their "Britney mics", he saw the queue and walked away!
Improvement needed.

Amazing deal~polite staff

Amazing deal was had and very quick click and collect with an extremely polite young man serving at customer service, what a credit to you he is in spite of working in incredibly hot conditions due to the air conditioning not working (not that he told me that, I could tell it was way too hot for working conditions) anyway great service but get the air con fixed! 5 stars if air con worked!
