Just awful, customer service means you have to prove how they have messed up, and still this isn’t enough. Don’t use these clowns, spend your money elsewhere.

Watering Can searching with Abbie…

Had a great experience today at the Stowmarket store, my local.
Hosepipe ban forced me to purchase a watering can. After a bloke look I asked an assistant if there are any. Abbie sprung into action with a search outside and then checked her own phone for stock, finding only 1 in stock. Then followed a fab banter and search mission for the 1 in stock. Several minutes later Abbie was handing me the prize watering can. I was also served by Abbie so I can say I got the full customer service. Great service and definitely with a smile, which was much appreciated. Thanks A. Ie and all the best to you 🤗

In praise of wicked delivery…

Wickes delivery for DIY materials has been excellent. A few bags of sand and some cement delivered to the door for four quid - money well spent! (Also delivery guy was most helpful.)

We collected a gate yesterday morning on click and collect. Whilst in store we decided to buy a new latch and I had to purchase via click and collect as I didn’t have payment cards with me. Transaction was processed within seconds and we received service with a smile and a corny joke as an added bonus! 🤣. Great store. Clean and well organised.

Kitchen design by Crispin was excellent!

We started with a look around the showroom but also had a chat with a very helpful chap called Crispin. We decided to set up a kitchen design meeting after our holiday which we did yesterday. Although we had sort of decided what would work out in our new kitchen, Crispin was able to demonstrate other options that would be suitable for the space and regulations/safety. After several trips up and down the showroom to show what was available, and several changes in design so that we could really see different layouts, we settled on the perfect design! It was such a helpful process as we had a blank page to work with in our new property so it was good to visualise the space. Crispin was patient throughout and nothing was too much trouble to get the result we wanted. Lots of advice offered and the discounts made it affordable for us. Big thanks!!

New Kitchen, Crispin is your man!

We popped in on the off chance to look at the kitchen range, walking up the stairs we was greeted by Crispin and from there we have purchased a beautiful kitchen and appliances which will be fitted by a recommended fitter.
Crispin knowledge and ideas help design a layout that utilised the foot print allowing more storage and a symmetrical units.
He will be working along side the installer to ensure our end result is as or better than the original design.

Wickes surprised myself with the personal touches and they have pride on getting dreams that come true.

Had a parking ticket at Wickes in Stowmarket that wasn't justified. I contacted the branch manager Harry Self who couldn't have been more helpful if he tried and sorted this out for me within the hour.
Nice to speak to someone human who understands.
Give him a pay rise immediately

Excellent service

Abi was outstanding during my visit. She made the whole process a pleasurable experience.
She really understood my vision and was able to design the perfect kitchen for me. I've even invited her to come and see it once it's finished.
Couldn't be happier.
