Great kitchen design

We had a kitchen designed by Julie Johnson from the Oldham store and were delighted with what was provided. Julie was very thorough, gave detailed advice whilst taking on board what was important to us and took time to show us all of the various options available. At the conclusion of the meeting we had total confidence in the design provided as all alternatives had been considered.

Great work

I had a great experience designing my kitchen with Simi Daniel at the Oldham store. She supported me all through the process.
Simi will never get tired of any customer. I gave her a good recommendation.

A very knowledgeable and personable agent. Julie was so helpful.
Great ideas but listened to our needs. Offered solutions and alternatives.
There was no rush and lots of opportunities to discuss and try different ideas.
Thank you.

Go Elsewhere :(

Our experience of what passes for customer service at Wickes was awful. Save yourself and DO NOT PLACE AN ORDER! You may strike lucky and get decent staff on your team, but our experience has been really, really poor and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

My fiance and I had our kitchen fitted and supplied through Julie at Wickes 3 years ago. I went into the store 3 weeks ago at 6 pm to see Julie to discuss designing a new bathroom. I had just missed her. I rang up the following day 3 weeks ago asking for Julie who was unavailable and left my phone number to discuss a new bathroom. I was told Julie would call me back.24 hours later we had not had the call so my fiance nipped in to be told by Julie's colleague Julie has your fiancee's phone number and will call her back. The call has never occurred and therefore we won't be asking Wickes to design our new bathroom which is a dissapointment following our previous experience with your store

Unreliable and disorganised

I booked an appointment online which was shortly followed by a phone call from Julie Johnson at Oldham branch to say she can’t do 5pm as we requested would 10.30 be ok I said 11 am would be fine so she booked us in.
On the day it got to 11.15 and no sign of her so I checked my email to see another confirmation of 11.30 which had been altered without discussion.
We had several appointments today and are very busy people and as this first impression has been very poor I won’t be considering Wickes alongside the other competitors now. In an already crowded market place with lots of choices you would think they would value customers enquiry’s, in my opinion if they can’t keep an appointment for a design visit it leaves me with very little confidence in the rest of the services.

The staff at this store are amazing

The staff at this store are amazing. They’re very helpful and always willing to go above and beyond to do what they can to make your experience a smooth one. I’ve been in there in tears due to the stress of my building work and suffer from a neurological condition. Julie and Simon did everything they could to make things easy for me. I’m so grateful to them. Thank you

What amazing Customer Service

What amazing Customer Service - I ordered the wrong type of item online for delivery and it arrived as scheduled. Unfortunatley I had ordered an incorrect item and so I contacted my local Store who advised to speak to Customer Service.
The lady I spoke to quickly arranged a free return for me and I then ordered the correct item. The lady was proffessional and extremely helpful and understanding.
The whole issue was resolved within 10 minutes and the item is being collected tomorrow.
Excellent Customer service from both Julie at the Oldham Store and the lady I spoke to at central Customer Services. Thank you

Superb Professionalism in Kitchen Design

The sheer professionalism of Ms Julie Johnson and her colleagues during my kitchen design consultation yesterday was superb. It was my best such experience in nearly forty years as a professional landlord with multiple properties.
