Didn't accept return
Bought shower, didn't work. Tried to return within 4 days (bank holiday). Said to contact manufacturer. Consumer Rights Act states it should be taken within 6 months.
Called Triton who came out, 3 minutes on site, sent bill £100 (call out). Credit control didn't want to entertain this and said will send bailiffs and ignored my request for complaints.
Update....
I was contacted and told area manager will be in touch, been a week and no contact. Had to ring again and I got a call. Was sympathetic and assured this will get sorted. Local brach said they rang and left a message but no missed call nor anyone message. Emailed instead and still haven't managed to sort the faulty shower and have been trying to contact via email and phone but just being ignored....by both branch and area manager... pathetic!

Click and don't collect
Item shown as in stock at local branch so ordered for click & collect. Got email 30 mins later to say ready to collect. Then got phone call to say not actually in stock but would be delivered from another branch next day ?! Went to collect next afternoon but not arrived, told would arrive later that day. Didn't happen. Following day told would be in later as driver was collecting from other store. Didn't happen. Already delayed job and needed item so ordered from other store 10 miles further away. Picked up next morning just as got text saying item now in at other store !

We are extremely sorry that on this occasion we have not provided you with an acceptable level of service, please accept our sincere apologies.
I am afraid no contact details are provided against this review and your order number is not noted for me to obtain, so we are unable to get in contact with you by phone or email, please could you e-mail customerservices@cef.co.uk with your contact details and that this is in reference to a Trustpilot review and one of our team will contact you by return to discuss this issue.
