Collection was quick and simple but the staff didn't even acknowledge my existence other than "what are the last 3 numbers?". Actually made me feel rubbish with their complete lack of attentiveness.

Lovely friendly staff as always

Lovely friendly staff as always. One of the items I had ordered was out of stock. It was only an incidental but I still had a curtesy phone call advising and saying they would refund when I collected my order.

Instore Assistance

We went instore to look for the item we wanted, and after we got to a operative that knew what they were talking about, he was very very helpful and advised to order on line as we would get further money off. (Which we did), the item came exactly at the time they said and was very very helpful

I asked if someone could help to put the decking into the car. The person on the till asked someone who clearly didn’t want to help. I told him not to bother. Disabled driver will never buy from there again. Poor service.

The attitude of a male member of staff left me wanting to walk out the store, he needs training in customer service.
Shame I didn't get his name.

Top service above and beyond

The two people that served me couldn’t be any more helpful and made sure I could leave with my items despite a couple of hurdles.

Please pass on my heartfelt gratitude for them going out of their way to make things work.
