Sold lithium battery without packaging
Ordered two 18V batteries to click and collect. One of the batteries was without the packaging, like it came from the display. On asking why they said it is fine, warranty still applies. Person at the till was very dismissive, on the verge of being rude so did not feel like asking for a refund would go well.
This is not acceptable for many reasons. Large lithium batteries are dangerous and need at least minimum protection when being transported. I had no guarantee the battery was not used before. Usually when you buy something expensive if you do not get the packaging you are expecting the price to be reduced. I wouldn't have bought the item like if I was to pick it up in the store.
Confidence is shattered, I will take my custom somewhere else in the future. Only reason it is not just one star is because the order was available to pick up same day so can say IT system works.

Despite the Mishap
I ordered a 3-pack of BUFF rubber door stops and was given White. However, the Homebase Response Team contacted me to apologise and provide a refund. Overall, I found the Click & Collect service notifications very helpful and will use it again.

Sensational Shirley
I was called from a queue to a new vacant cashier who had just opened to help customers. The name of the cashier was Shirley. She was most helpful and even found me some old plastic sheeting to place on my car mats in case the plants I'd just bought fell over. I was most appreciative. She was kind, pleasant and extremely helpful. This is the kind of customer service I really value.
Very easy and polite experience.
