They never replied
I set up an inquiry in their contact form on their website re hiring a ladder Included my email address and phone number I never heard back from them If they are unable to reply to a simple query from a potential customer then they are probably not much good for any other customer service Will go elsewhere next time

Went to smiths hire blackburn to hire a lawn scarifier I have an account but paid cash took the machine home to find it was not working it didnt even start i took machine back to shop and they replaced a fuse I again took the machine home and this time it worked but only for about ten seconds I again took the machine back to shop and said forget it and just give me a refund which they did 2 days later I receive an invoice for payment for the hire I ring them and tell them what had happened but they are now claiming it was user error and the invoice is to be paid Why didn t they claim it was user error on the 2 times I took the machine back and even give me a refund only to come up with this excuse 2 days later I have used scarifiers before and no way was there any user error needless to say I have cancelled my account with smiths hire which I have had for many years Smiths hire service has got much worse over the last couple of years and I believe they are sending out equipment without proper checks

Hired a scissor lift from the Preston
Hired a scissor lift from the Preston branch It was a day and a half late then they took 3 days to pick it back up I emailed the manager to make him away of the problem and got no reply Charging 70 for delivery and then another 70 for pick up when neither of these dates were kept too is scandalous We will not be using this company again
