Wickes - Aberdeen Reviews 

I was in on Saturday and got help from Jill h who helped me find the products I was needing
Very helpful and polite very good service will definitely be shopping here again

Aditi was very thorough, our quote is a bit complicated where we're looking for a bathroom and shower en-suite.
She made great suggestions and took on board our preferences.

Went to pick an order up sejal helped us whilst we were there
Couldnt do enough for us
She even pushed our trolley to the tills as it was very heavy
Very helpful and friendly
A credit to wickes need more people like this

We spent two hours with Iditi and were impressed with the skill and knowledge of her computer programs and her ability to communicate her ideas with her customer. She was kind and patient. Thank you Iditi

Had very good customer service from Jill H

Excellent customer service. I was unsure which product would suit the job I was doing from the wide range of stock. I spoke with Jill H who took the time to help me and ended up choosing a better quality product than I intended. Makes a big difference when your staff know what they are selling!

Went into wickes at westhill aberdeenshire to buy an item that cost WAY LESS than b&q. There was a young man at the checkout whose name is Tayo who is friendly and courteous, asked me how my day was going. Tayo is a credit to this store and will definitely shop here again. Please pass my thanks on.

Aditi was incredibly patient with my lack of proper details brought to the appointment (I've a lot of reno to do before the kitchen is measurable) and especially given the appointment ran long. Huge range of options with a really clear visualiser, and a useful selection to mix and match in store

I spent £178.00 on fencing and timber from Wicks, Westhill, Aberdeenshire.
Got a message yesterday saying delivery would be between 7am and 11am this morning so arranged work, assistance and time around being here for delivery.
Waited patiently until after 11am before phoning the Westhill depot.
The girl who answered the phone was pleasant enough but proceeded to inform me the delivery driver didn’t turn up today!
So rather than phoning me or texting me first thing this morning, I had to wait until after the delivery time elapsed to then have to phone them to be told this.
So now, no idea when delivery will be, they have £178.00 of my money and not even the decency to contact me to find out when it will be convenient for me take delivery. As for an apology, I won’t hold my breath.
Is this what customer service is now? Absolutely disgusting and a horrible company to deal with.

Update… I got a call at 12:20 from an incompetent female telling me my delivery wasn’t coming, told me it wasn’t her fault and get it Thursday or get my money back. They really are the worst customer service people I have come across in a very long time. Absolutely terrible.
If senior staff can’t deal with angry customers they really shouldn’t be in the position where they are dealing with customer complaints. Knowing the difference between angry and shouting is not difficult and also not difficult to deal with by apologising and taking responsibility, not playing victim and lashing out at the customer.
Maybe I’m just old fashioned but I was always led to believe customer service is the face of any business.
If this was the face of Wicks it’s not a very nice face.
The atmosphere in this store created by certain members of their staff is awful and I certainly won’t be returning as it is not a good environment to shop in.

Sejal was really helpful when I came in looking for something to fix drafty holes in my windows. She was really knowledgeable and helpful x

Bathroom fit was scheduled and went ahead on the 11th of August running to time

Work was not completed to satisfactory level 2 different colours of calk were used, sealant wasn’t completed, shower was leaking and were told shower tray was non slip which it wasn't

Customer service was awful throughout taking days if not weeks to respond, your departments communication between each other were just as poor taking again weeks at points to communicate with each other

I requested a subject access request which again showed another failure in your company as was not completed within appropriate legal timescale requiring a second request for the information.

We had 3 individuals come out to inspect/survey bathroom each agreed the level of work preformed was far below the standard we should expect.

I had to physically support my mother in and out of the shower several times because of the issues to ensure her safety, a situation neither of us were expecting to be put in, costing a woman her independence and dignity is the worst part of this! Wickes were aware of this and still worked no faster to resolve

Finally after months of disappointments a date of new installer was made June 1st and he has now completed his works and again more disappointment awaited. He informed my mother was to much work to change calk to just one colour, silicon unfinished. After another one of their contractors told us he recommended a whole refit was required.

We have decided not to pursue having any further contractors from wickes in as stress of organising this will be too much and I’ve lost countless nights of sleep over this already and will arrange for work to be completed ourselves.

The final communication I had was a compensation package which I feel is severely lacking

We agreed amount for delay is adequate

For deliveries really not as there were multiple additional deliveries and 3 visits from contractors that should not have been required. Each I had to attend making almost a 30 mile round journey each time.

The amount for the delay for the subject request, incomplete work and the massive delay in waste collection is ridiculous. £600 back on a small bathroom costing almost £10000 that isn't even finished!

Although we reluctantly accepted compensation package they have again failed as have never been sent links to receive this within timescale they laid out and again are unresponsive regarding this so despite experience starting summer last year it's still ongoing almost a year later

Excellent friendly service from Sejal. Very pleasant to meet and deal with.

Ashley came to our home yesterday to help us design a new kitchen that would suit our needs. She took all our requirements into great consideration. It is a pleasure to have someone come and listen to you, she has a great manner and very polite and helpful. One thing she did was listen to us, not being a pushy sales person and designed our kitchen to exactly the was we wanted and she did a first class job.

Found staff member Jillian the manager to be very helpful and went out her way to do everything I requested. 10 out 10 for her assistance.

I was in the store for the first time this morning to get paint for my bathroom. I had assistance from staff member Jillian (did not get her last name but wears glasses if this helps locate her ). She was so helpful and got me the paint that I was looking for even carried it back to the till for me. If this is how staff treat you I will definitely be back. Thank you Jillian if you ever see This

Brilliant customer service, and shop layout was great, Jill and Sejal both helped me find everything I was looking for

Sejal was very helpful. When I couldn’t find the specific colour of paint I needed she offered to go and get it from the warehouse for me. She also then helped carry it to my car. Very friendly service.

We placed a click and collect order and then phoned through to the branch to ask if we could pick it up the next day at 07:00am. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful, they ensured everything was ready for the 07:00am collection and were helpful, professional and courteous throughout: they even helped my wife carry them to her car. Aberdeen Wickes is the best!

I wouldn't normally leave a review but i was so impressed with the helpfulness of staff at this store. Great selection of products too! Jillian provided great customer service.

My new favourite store :)

Can't fault Wickes Aberdeen for prompt delivery and help sourcing the materials I need for my current project. Thanks to Rachael for ensuring I got the correct materials ( as I never went in to the store ) and Steve for delivering it super fast and being extremely helpful at my end.
