Helped with loading

I arrived wanting to buy a dozen bags of the 100l bark chippings Wickes had on offer. Sold at an excellent price, I asked Liam, who was on the till, if I could pay once I’d loaded my car as I wasn’t sure how many bags would fit. He offered to help me load up.
I didn’t think that was necessary but the bags were jam packed full and very heavy. I literally couldn’t have loaded them myself. Not once did Liam make me feel like a ‘weak female shopper’ - he just helped, engaging with gentle chitchat and good humour.
I couldn’t ask for better service. Liam is a credit to Wickes - thank you!

Very helpful staff member

Very helpful staff member, Tony, took me directly to the product I was looking for, after another staff member had waved vaguely in a direction that was incorrect.

Nice, polite helpful young staff member - Liam

I visited the Swindon store on 16 May and was served by Liam. I needed three heavy bags of cement but as a 60 year old woman with back trouble I didn't know how to get them from the store to the car. Liam fetched a trolley, got the cement, rang it up and took it to my car and put it in the boot for me. I was so very grateful to him. Such a nice, polite helpful young man. I hope Wickes have a system for rewarding staff who go out of their way to help customers. Thank you again Liam.

Customer service at it's best

The service that I received from Tony at the Swindon store was fantastic! Not only did he answer my questions but went out of his way to help me load my trolley and then come to my vehicle and assist me with loading my vehicle. I can't remember any time I have had customer service anywhere near what he provided!
