Had a couple of issues with a previous click and collect but this time it was perfect, easy, quick and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Many thanks

I was contacted by an amazing member of staff called Paul that the lights that I'd ordered for click and collect couldn't be located in the store. He checked the stock at other stores and located them... See more

Didn’t check my ID…

The buying process was easy and signing up to Klarna was easy, picking it up in Woking Homebase was even easier, I could have been anyone! No ID was checked, just handed over a nearly £400 item, no checks!

NOT SAFE SHOPPING AT HOMEBASE!

Purchased a Karcher K3 with accessories and paid online. Collected it and took it home. Went to open it and realised I was given a lower model. Took it back to another Homebase and was told they had no record of it. I then drove 30 miles to the original store and had a very rude assistant. Asked if I wanted the correct item and I said no as I had shopped elsewhere in the mealtime. No purchase email sent to me and I have no proof of return and refund.
JUST BEWARE SHOPPING AT HOMEBASE!

Staff in shop excellent

Staff in shop excellent, very helpful. Stupidity in 20% discount only online using click and collect, so sat in shop and ordered, they then got it for me. 4 out of 5 as still had to do online while in shop.

I am happy with the product apart from one packet of barks which has two medium size holes, one at each end of the bag. It is quite surprising that they even sell this packet to the customer - I am unsure of how much of barks have dribbled out of there while being moved. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Communication about the order and when to collect was good too. I would have given more stars if not for that one bag of barks.

Each time I visit Homebase at Knaphill…

Each time I visit Homebase at Knaphill the tillls are unmanned with only one person on the customer service position. They are often dealing with a query resulting in long queues. My last 2visits I have complained to staff stacking shelves resulting in two tills being opened to clear the queues. This results in lost customers and business as we get fed up with queuing. It’s very poor management at the store. Remember, a business is a means of making money. Your store seems more interested in stacking shelves than taking customers money. Very poor service.

My click & collect order wasn’t there

I usually have good experience with Homebase but this time my click and collect items weren’t even there even though I’d paid for them. I was offered alternatives that weren’t suitable and asked for a discount code for my troubles, in order to purchase them again online. However, I will have to to reach out to customer services. I know these things happen, it’s just really frustrating!
