As of late. The last visit was ok. The male seemed too engineer an debate even thoe I did not even know him. My last complaint about the service I had he brought up. He then told me in a sarcastic polite way that the blond woman says thanks for that review. He then advised me to take into consideration that the other male was learning. I personally think that he had no idea what so ever but too be frank. What a place that is going down hill. No name badges nothing. I only come in for my meds. If it carries on. Then it will escalate into something else. I am sure of that. Maybe these two should go on a course too improve their policies in politeness and not engage into wanting a negative feedback. When I go back in next I hope it goes well. If not i will not be so polite and give them back what they dish out. Or better still just not go back. If you like a Karen chemist then this could be the place too sign up too.

A young assistant named Ellie in the Montague St branch in Worthing was excellent today. Purchasing perfume is difficult and I had no idea but Ellie made it so straightforward with no hassle. Well done Ellie and a big thank you.

Ordered two aftershave only one arrived in the box. Phoned boots and they originally said they would refund I then chased it up because the refund hadn't gone in the bank. To be then told they had conducted their investigations and they wouldn't be refunding in effect saying I had stolen/lost the product even though the box they had sent was too small for two products. Surely after reading all these complaints they should be conducting their own investigations to see whats wrong with their own procedures. I've spent £100s at Boots over the years. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Free covid tests to the medically vulnerable not available at Boots without a letter from a doctor ... at huge cost as a state pensioner? Despite repeat medication supplied by my local Boots for 25yrs and access to my medical history they won't provide free as otherwise 'anyone could just come in and ask for them'. Insulting at the least and failing to assist prevention at worst.

Poor online service. Not sure the purpose of customer services. Just parrot what faq says. Can’t actually provide a service.

If I could give less than a star I would. Horrible customer service. I ordered something online and they didn’t even ask me to confirm the delivery address, it went straight to check out. I paid and got confirmation with the wrong address. I tried to cancel or edit the address immediately, but it didn’t work. I then tried to call the next day (the lines are closed on the Sunday, when I placed the order). The lady over the phone was rude and hung up the call, saying that she can’t do anything and I should try talking with Royal Mail. I bought the item as a Christmas present, now I have nothing to give to the person… not only that; the item was worth over £300!! You just stole my money, delivered the item to the wrong address and you don’t care. I just wish you go bankrupt, you don’t deserve to have customers. Never using boots again, they don’t care for the customers. Merry Christmas, enjoy my money!

Ordered/paid for perfume 30/11 to be delivered to store 5/12. It never arrived. Ive been to the shop 3times and was given different advice. Ive also phoned 4 times. Ive 'eventually' been told it wasnt dispatched / lost but they cant dispatch it now!!!! I bought the perfume at the sale price of £42. Its now £70 so through no fault of my own ive missed out on that price. Ive been offered a refund (not arrived yet) but i cant understand why i cant be sent a bottle considering its 'in stock' online and in the shops??? Terrible customer service, i wont be using them again

I want to commend Sarah Hill at Boots Festival Park, Stoke on Trent. She has been so very helpful to me today and solved a problem in the nicest way possible. Great customer service Boots and Sarah. Thank you! 🙏

My parcel has been delivery full of paper and without the product. I called Boots and they said the parcel has been delivered properly and haven’t refund my money! Although they don’t even have a proof that someone received the parcel. I asked for a picture of my signature and of course they don’t have any! They left the box on my front door and all they have is a picture of my door. Apparently they went on an investigation with Royal Mail and just decided not taking any responsibility!!!!

Repeated message: Sorry, we're unable to process your order This is because your order has failed one or more of our internal validation checks. No explanation and I have had an account for several years. Hopeless service.

Placed an order on 4 Nov for 9 of No.7 capsules, only 1 was in a big parcel. I thought the other must be in the second parcel. Found out all sent in one and I’m missing 8. Wrote to boots, first they said will looking into and asked if I would like a refund or replacement. 3 weeks later I am still waiting for the refund so I emailed again and going through the same thing like I have not reported the missing items. PLEASE DO NOT BUY from them, they are calling me a liar because they insisted all items were posted to me and I have received it. They told me to report to post office because they delivered the parcel to me and if items are missing it must be then and they have nothing to do with it. Terrible customer service because they are replying your from a template so your problem will not get resolved. In the end they said to me it’s my problem And they will not look into further and that was from a senior manager. She also said happy for me to happy to liaise with any third party companies i may wish to raise my complaint through as appropriate. Check out Facebook boots page……many upset customers because they all got scam like me

Right, sorry for this honest review but... My wife has used Boots click and collect for the past 2 years for family Christmas presents. Both years the store delivery has not happened. Both years the store had no idea where it was or when it was going to arrive. The click and collect seems completely separate to the store. Definitely not recommended, especially for those important gifts. Now Boots have a tendancy to remove posts that give an honest review. I have screenshot this so it will keep being posted until we have contact from someone.

I have been into the Southport branch twice in the last week. A very helpful store assistant named Becky was very helpful in choosing and recommending appropriate products which I have purchased and am very happy with

We went to boots telford store to purchase goods and use the scan to recycle system. It was our first time using the incentive, however, after completing the purchase my advantage card points were not added. I went back to the store and spoke to Jan, who was very knowledgeable and took time to resolve the issue. She was very helpful, customer friendly and is a credit to your company.

I bought a camera bundle for our granddaughter which should have arrived at our local Boots on 15 November. On 28 November, after allowing over the 5 working days they state you should wait, I checked with them as it still had no tracking information on what is an archaic help system. It took 20 minutes to navigate a phone system which constantly leads to automated dead ends, before being told that it would be resubmitted, then that they could not do it because it is now out of stock! No firm date could be given for when it would be delivered. My money is being refunded but this can take up to 14 days!! This is the worse online service I have experienced and not what I would expect from a company as established as Boots. The lack of information and appalling online and telephone platforms display a total disregard for customers. I will NOT use this service again and advise that anybody considering it look elsewhere.

I visited your Guildford, Surrey store today to look for a chritmas gift for my son. Shristi was very helpful. Although the male at the perfume section was extremely rude to my other son, shoving him away from a cabinet and basically losing a sale, Shristi gift wrapped a beautiful gift set for my son and has great customer service. Maybe she should train the guy wearing trouser braces!
