Avoid Collect in Store
I arranged to collect on 11th February, this was the date in my confirmation email. Visited the local store after 14:00hrs where I'd arranged to collect the items to find they hadn't been delivered. The staff in the store tried to help but it didn't seem straightforward to be able to change things. They had some of the items I'd ordered in stock at the store so they said I could take those and refunded the cost of the other item I'd ordered.
On 12th February I had a message from Royal Mail with the tracking details for the parcel, I contacted Customer service about this as you can't contact the local store directly even though the 'phone number is a local one, you have to listen to a menu to be told to ring another number.
13th February I received a text from Boots to tell me my parcel had arrived even though the assistant in store had left a message for her colleagues about it. The message system doesn't allow replies. I no longer require the items as I told Customer Service on 12th February.
I'm just very disappointed at the lack of competence, Boots used to be a decent company plus I've never had any problems with their deliveries to my home address.
