    5 Stars Saving me money at Wilkinsons Diamond review 06/04/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Saves me spending money on things I dont really need

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Make sure your order everything you need.

    I love to go shopping in Wilkinson's, however it does cause me a few problems. I go in for one item and come out with three carrier bags full of goodies. Two bags hanging from the pushchair handles and one bag placed in the pushchair, telling my daughter that its good for her to walk! Nasty Mother. Anything on offer and I'll buy it, this most of the time tends to be a waste of money as these things sit in my cupboards gathering dust only then to be given away to friends or the local charity shop. Whilst recently going through some of my cash back websites I noticed that Wilkinson's were ... more

    4 Stars Wilkinson - Mightier than the Sword? 15/05/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Hassle Free Shopping

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not many more items if you live near a big store

    Wilkinsons Plus Whenever I go shopping into my local town, I can never seem to leave for home without dropping into Wilkinsons store and coming out with arms full of bags with items I probably didn't even need, though sometimes a bargain is too much to say no to. It might then come as a surprise that it wasn't until recently that I found out that there was an online store! With a 6 month old baby daughter, shopping online sometimes seems a lot easier, so almost straight away I started browsing and filling the basket (much to my husbands annoyance!). ***Background and History of Wilkinsons*** ... more

    3 Stars Not worth the time and stress. 12/04/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Everything gets delivered to your door, fantastic low prices for reasonable quality.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages 3 working day wait, difficult to find things on the website.

    Wilkinson's. I have been using them for about 3 years now and this is the place where I get most of my office and student stationery. Until recently, I had not realised they had existed since as far back as the 1930s, our nearest store (about 30 miles away) only appeared about 3 years ago and the next nearest one I can think of is on the other side of the country. And apparently, they have just under 300 stores around the country....?

    3 Stars Wilkinsons have gone online 07/10/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Huge range of products, easy to navigate site

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Delivery service, packaging, website search function

    I was desperately needing some storage boxes for under my bed and saw some for £3 each in Wilkinsons. Although they were great value, I knew that I needed around six of them, and as I don't have a car the thought of lugging six huge plastic boxes home on the bus put me off buying them. I then remembered having seen a brochure in store for Wilkinson plus, their new website, and decided to take a look. ~What is Wilkinson plus?~ As I'm sure many of you are aware, Wilkinson are a high street store, selling mainly household and everyday goods, such as toiletries, cleaning products, pet food and ... more

    5 Stars ONLINE SHOPPING: THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE 30/06/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages User-friendly: easy to navigate and to buy from.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Does not feature customer reviews.

    Wilkinsonplus.com is Wilkinson's official website. It allows prospective customers to browse its catalogue and place their orders online. As there is a Wilkinson store very near where I live, I had never felt the need to use their website, until recently. I was looking for a resin garden table. Having done my research, and checked what resin tables were available and for what prices, I chose one from the Wilkinsons catalogue. My local shop did not have this particular table, but I could order it and then collect it later. Now, resin tables are not all that heavy, and my being so close to the ... more

    4 Stars Wiko's - Better ONline than Off! 07/07/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lots of choice, good prices, easy browsing ability & saves basket contents for you.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Site can be a little bit slow to load on occasion.

    Wilkinson’s isn’t a store I’d ever really shopped in much when it was just a high street shop. Mostly because my nearest one is the other side of town, and so going there to browse wasn’t really practical, and then because I didn’t go there often I’d forget about it as somewhere to try. Over the years, I’ve begun to do more and more of my shopping online. This is partly because my disability makes it hard to get out and look around shops easily all the time, and partly because the internet is becoming much more user friendly as a place to shop. A couple of years ago I realised that Wilkinson’s ... more

    1 Star Wilkinson = Hassle, unreliable, not worth the effort. 12/04/2012
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Goods are relatively cheap

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Parcel undelivered, was refused a refund until my parcel was 'found', staff are rude and unhelpful.

    I have always been a happy customer at the Wilkinson stores, but my recent experience has put me off ever purchasing from Wilkinson again!I intended to order a few large storage boxes and other bits and bobs, it was easy to order online and everything was going fine UNTIL:- The order tracking number which I was emailed did not work for the first four days,- After especially taking time off to be at home for the delivery, the delivery did not show up,- I checked online on the order tracker and it stated my delivery had been received by the customer!?- Called Wilkinson and was transferred at ... more

    1 Star Quick review of Wilkinson Plus by Rabbie6b 09/02/2009
    What a shambles! Order tracking does not work and despite staff knowing this nothing is done. The interface between store and Wilko plus is non existent when a store delivery is requested. Goods order " could be lying in a loading bay" I was told when they should have been with me. Delivery times of 2-4 days are not real staff in store say more like 10 days. Come on be honest Wilkos get it sorted and lets not have 2 customer service centers.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pitiful service

    I placed an order and was waiting for delivery and then it's late and nothing they have delivered for a week anf then after email of late delivery they placed another order without charge like the one before got lost. Order tracking still does not work and after 6 months nobody fix it and display on the website of order tracking is ridiculous. My store delivery is realy one of the worst possible order deliveries I ever placed but what would be if it was not store placed but royal mail they maybe would say it got lost in post if it was not signed for delivery. Suspicious online website proceess ... more

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages order when you like

    Disadvantages Disadvantages staff are stupid and NO DELIVERY of goods!!

    I made 2 orders on there on the 18th and 20th, they arrived on the 21st and 23rd.. no problems there, got called to say my items had arrived, however, went into the store and the idiots working there didn't seem to have a clue what they were doing. Running around like headless chickens!! I also know someone who made an order on the 18th, had a dispatch note on the 20th, and now it's the 25th and even though it says 4 days delivery she has had no sign of it at all, no calls either. She called on thursday into the store to find out why, and was told 'oh it may be in tomorrow or saturday', so she ... more
