Excellent customer service

Cassie went out of her way to find the exact drill I wanted (there was only one in the shop) and checked that it could be held for me to get to the shop. Excellent customer service.

Booked a home bathroom design visit

Booked a home bathroom design visit. They turned up nearly 2 hours late which meant the appointment was rushed as I had to get back to work not long after they turned up. Was told I would receive designs by email the following Tuesday but they never materialised. Very poor service and still no design.

Do you value your health and safety?

Using the TrustPilot flagging process, Wickes accused my review of being defamatory despite it being a completely accurate representation of my experience relating to my bathroom installation ordered from their Newport branch. The TrustPilot AI bot agreed with them (which given they appear to be a paid TrustPilot subscriber is not very surprising) so here I am having to post my review without the detail.

Just know that if you value your safety, wellbeing and frankly your mental health, then you should not use Wickes, who's "Wickes-approved" installer (as per their marketing on their website) created a serious electrical safety hazard during our installation, of which I have photographic evidence and which has also been discussed with several Wickes staff at length already. Wickes are trying to silence me from going into further detail instead of engaging with their customers around these issues and taking ownership. The installation in total (for a tiny bathroom with relatively simple installation requirements) took 114 days to finish, due to a large amount of it having to be redone due to poor workmanship and installation against standards, which could have resulted in a cracked floor from water ingress, amongst other stuff.

I reserve the right to publish a promoted, accurate and comprehensive review on a private domain if there are further attempts to silence my completely accurate review to make sure my voice is heard. I know my review is accurate of my experience so Wickes really have no legal leg to stand on when claiming defamation. They just don't like being embarrassed at their own actions.

I await resolution of my 4,500 word complaint currently sat with Wickes, which is very long due to the quantity of issues it contains.

Very Poor Kitchen design and fitting service

Kitchen design and fitting service. Really poor project mangement, customer service and all round planning. Shocking customer service. Missed install dates, wrong items, lack of communication and generally a complete lack of management.
The positives where the installer was very professional and the units were good quality.

Thank you Wickes Newport

Wickes Newport have recently supported us with our community project by making a donation of compost for use in our school garden. This donation will enable pupils from across our school to get involved with planting and growing their own crops, and enjoying the wellbeing benefits that these activities provide. Scott was super helpful, making sure the compost was loaded onto a trolley before I arrived to collect and helping me to load it into the car. Thank you!

Instore online order did not reach supplier. Unaware of this until delivery date had passed. Had to then cancel order as item was needed urgently. Cancelling and getting refund was not straight forward. Had to keep contacting customer services to know what was happening. Did get refund eventually.

Scott Newport

I have just been served by a young man in Wickes Newport call Scott. Talk about customer service he was outstanding. I was struggling to find a colour and we eventually found it on a display and he managed to replicate it for me beautifully. I’m thrilled with the colour. I’m also thrilled to the fact that he didn’t treat me like an old woman but with lots of respect And helpfulness. I hope this goal goes along way.
