If I could give this place a 0000 star I would.
Please see the timeline of events below:
• 14th January – Your designer Jack measured our kitchen and advised that the plan would be ready within a couple of days. This did not happen.
• 22nd January – We finally received the plan via our builder, only after multiple emails and text messages between ourselves and the builder. At no point did Howdens communicate directly with us.
• 23rd January – We attended a planning appointment. My partner was there in person and I joined by phone. There was no explanation of unit types, inserts, or options. We were again told the plan would be ready by Monday.
• Monday – No plan was received. After chasing through our builder, we finally received the “final” plan and quote on 27th January.
We then attempted to arrange a meeting with Jack on the Friday (today) but were told he was away. Our builder advised us he had spoken to the branch manager, Paul, that morning, so we visited the Leighton Buzzard branch in person as advised.
When Paul was pointed out to us, he looked at us and said, in a very rude manner:
“What do you want me to do? I’m not a designer. I can’t design for you.”
We explained that we simply wanted someone to go through the pricing and explain what the units and inserts were, as this had not been discussed with us.
Paul then said:
“You’ve posted on Facebook about your quote with 200 people commenting on it. I don’t know why you did that.”
I replied and said that it is a public group and we are entitled to ask for opinions about our own home and ask for advice. He said that he did not appreciate me posting on facebook with thousands of people to see.
For context:
The post on facebook was this:
"This is our plan from Howdens. Total is £12,337 without appliances and worktops.
Looks too much so we are looking for other options.
What would be the like for like of this in DIYK
This is Chilcomb range
Thank you"
Throughout the conversation, Paul’s manner was dismissive, rude, and completely unacceptable for a manager. At one point I felt so uncomfortable that I had to leave. My partner stayed and continued the conversation.
Paul eventually printed the plan and showed what was inside the cupboards, but when my partner asked about alternative pricing options, he was again dismissive and said:
“We don’t compare prices.”
At no point did we feel listened to, respected, or supported as customers.
For context, we were quoted £12,335 for a Howdens Chilcomb kitchen (excluding appliances and worktop). A like-for-like quote from DIY Kitchens came to £6,500. We were not expecting Howdens to match this price, but we did expect some consideration toward bringing the quote closer and, above all, professionalism, explanation, and basic customer service — none of which we received from the Leighton Buzzard branch.
I felt that Paul was very dismissive because of the fact that I posted on facebook group:
UK kitchen reviews which we feel was created for homeowners like us and we found very useful.
Myself and my partner are both with professional backgrounds. Throughout our home build journey we have dealt with many trades and suppliers, and we have never been treated as unprofessionally as we were by Paul.
We had hoped Howdens would supply our dream kitchen based on our builder’s recommendation, but due to this experience we are now considering using another supplier and will no longer be recommending Howdens Leighton Buzzard to anyone.
I have raised a complaint regarding the service we received,in particular from the branch manager, Paul.
