Quick delivery. However your website is terrible at finding things. Also, you can't expect people to be home all week: you need to call to arrange delivery even for online orders. I wasn't even home... See more

Online order collection

I went this morning to Chadwicks in Lucan to collect an online order, the chap brought it to me on the forklift and asked me where I had parked as the tub was 20kg, he drove to my car and placed it in the boot for me. Great service!

Click and collect nightmare

Click and collect nightmare, never again! Bought a riello burner, which was supposed to be in stock. Order took 2 working days to pick. On arrival at the Naas branch, I asked the security guy where to go. He pointed to the back of the yard. No signage or staff to ask directions from. I went into the ware house and found the door leading to the retail shop. Staff behind counter staring into the computer screens, no acknowledgement. Other staff in a group chatting together, saw me come in but turned away from me . Eventually I asked one of the guys behind the counter was I in the correct spot for click and collect orders, and he took my printout, without saying anything and went in to the back of the counter area. After 10-15 mins he came out with my order and gave me the white copy stamped paid. When I go back to my van an tried to leave the security guy took my docket and then opened the back of the van to check things. He then proceeded to tell me that I should have been given the pink docket. I reiterated that the guy inside gave me the white docket. He just kept repeating himself, telling me that I should have the pink docket, not the white one. I offered to go back inside to get the pink docket but he suddenly changed his tune and sid I could leave the premises. Altogether a really frustrating experience, to collect a small item, uneccasary obstruction from staff who must not be happy in their job!

Hi Larry,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your experience collecting your order from our Naas branch.

From your comments, it's clear that the process fell short at a number of points, all combined to make what should have been a straightforward collection unnecessarily frustrating.

We also recognise the importance of acknowledging customers promptly and keeping them informed throughout the collection process. The experience you have described is not the level of service we aim to provide, and I appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention.

Your feedback has been shared with the branch management team so that the collection journey, customer communication and collection procedures can be reviewed and improved.

Thank you again for taking the time to highlight these concerns.

Kind regards,
Chadwicks Customer Care Team

Ordered an item online for collection…

Ordered an item online for collection and after waiting the whole weekend to was told it’s not available. The guy I dealt with was wonderful and extremely helpful. My one star is for the system failure rather than the customer service, which was excellent.

Hi Eoin,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for your positive feedback regarding our branch colleague who you spoke with.

Unfortunately the product you had wished to purchase was on a 3 - 5 day lead time from our supplier and was unavailable for immediate pick up after the weekend it was ordered.

We apologise if our product messaging was misleading or confusing and will take your feedback on board when looking to improve our online customer journey.

Kind Regards
