Travis Perkins Trading Co

UNRELIABLE AND DISHONEST!! A really bad experience!!

Went there to buy a few things and they tried to rip me off and were totally unreliable and dishonest.

I bought a five (5) items for GBP20 but on my way out I realised that I needed more of these exact items, so I picked up another five (5). When I went to the cashier to pay (another cashier than the first time) he said I would get a "discount" on these items and said it would cost me GBP60 (instead of GBP20 as I paid minutes earlier) - so in less than five minutes the price for the exact the same item increased with 200%! And he claimed he gave me a discount!!! Come on, that's just dishonest and poor business practise!


When I objected to this scam and showed him the receipt from a few minutes ago, he got upset with me and said that I should have showed him this right away!! What a prick! After some arguing the price came down to GBP40 - still 100% more than I paid a few minutes earlier!

Will I go back? Nope, I think this place stinks - and I wouldn't recommend anyone to go there as they are completely unreliable and dishonest! NOT IMPRESSED!

The only reason I mark a TWO instead of ONE is that the guy who assisted me out on the floor was helpful and know what he was doing!
