Rewards

Where do I find the rewards section in the app, I received an email about a competition and that I could enter via the rewards button via the app but there isn’t a rewards section on the app or online or if there is it is t obvious!!!???

Response from developer

Hi, there was a small delay in the competion being launched, which was the reason you were unable to find the reward sections, apologies for this. You can find the the link to reward if you open the discount screen in the app. Thanks.

Don’t expect a delivery

After downloading the app and adding just under £400 to the basket I went to checkout for delivery on Sunday and it showed all delivery slots are full and it said “delivery slots are updated daily” I then went on again today (Monday) same thing, all delivery slots are full. Why doesn’t it show you dates further ahead than 7 days? Who is going to bother checking every day in the hope that a delivery slot will be available. In the end I brought it all from a competitor so wickes have lost a sale. Even if I couldn’t get a slot for 4 weeks I would have still purchased it as I’m not desperate for it but you don’t have the option. What an oversight from such a big company. It’s practically throwing money away. People won’t wait and check daily in this day and age they will just go elsewhere.

Wow you managed to break it again

Shame I can't give it 0 stars and the developer response was from the last problem before they fixed it then broke it again Why every time you finally get it working do you release an update that breaks it again all it does after the update is crash so I have no codes for discount, no stock check and no click and collect it will be easier and Cheaper to shop somewhere else know

Hi, we are are aware of an issue on iphone 5/5s and IOS 10.3.4 which can result in the app crashing. This is being investgated and we hope to have a fix out as part of the next app update. Thanks

Easy to use but missing a vital bit of info

You would imagine your TradePro Number, the number given to you and only you, would be present to find easily on your account page, but to my knowledge it isn’t anywhere on the app while signed in. It would he useful if the app had a spot on the account page that explicitly says “TradePro Number”

Otherwise can’t fault it!

Hi, thanks for your feedback. This will be passed on to our Product Owners who are always looking for ways to improve the app for our customers. In the meantime, if you do require your TradePro ID, if you tap the discount icon in the app the discount barcode will pop up. Under the barcode is a 17 digit number, the last 10 digits of this are your TradePro ID. Thanks

Cannot log in

I have had a trade account for as long as I can remember. The new update has arrived and now I cannot log in. I have reset my password and my local Wickes store cannot help. Where do I go now?

EDIT: the customer support is fantastic- I was having major issues but with a call and an email it’s all resolved. Thank you Trade Pro team!

Looks good, crashes a LOT

App looks and functions like the web website which is fine but crashes all the time. As soon as i click on a product the screen goes white and then i’m forced to kill the app and restart. Fix this as it really is annoying!

Response from developer

Hi, apologies for the issues you have experienced. We have just released an app update (version 2.3.0) which we hope has resolved the issues you described. If after updating to this version however, you still encounter issues, please contact apple.devaccount@wickes.co.uk and our our IT team will investigate. Thanks.

Unusable!

Keeps telling me to update, even though it’s already the latest version, and when I do open it, tells me incorrect password..even though I can use the password to log in on a browser, followed by a password reset email that never turns up.

Not being able to access my trade pro account is costing me money.

Response from developer

Hi, apologies for the issues you are experiencing. There was a bug on previous version of app regarding the "new version available" message, we have released a new app update today whichincludes a fix for this, so please update to this new version. If you can send the email address linked to your TradePro account to apple.devaccount@wickes.co.uk we will resolve the password issue asap.Thanks

2.2.65 App stopped working

App stopped working after version 2.2.65 update!
At first: opening the app after this update return a message like “version 2.2.65 available update now” even though it had already been installed?
Now, after 2 weeks, the app doesn’t open - just a blank white screen is returned??
Previous versions worked without any issues.
Also selecting “App support” in the App Store takes you to the Wickes website enquiry form.

Response from developer

Hi, apologies for the issues you are experiencing. The issue of the "new version available" message appearing, even when you are on the most up to date version of app, will be fixed as part of our next app update, this coming Thursday, 30th April. In terms of the blank screen, it is possible this may be linked to a cached data issue. As a first step to trying to resolve, please can you delete and then re-install the app. If the issue still exists after this, please contact apple.devaccount@wickes.co.uk and our IT team wil investigate further. Thanks

Update?

Every time I open the app I get a message that a new version is available but when I click update and go to the App Store there is no update it just says open.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We have a small bug in the app that means this "new version available" message is incorrectly appearing when no actual new version has been released. This big will be fixed in our next app update, which we plan to release before the end of April. Apologies for the inconvenience of this incorrect message appearing when you open the app.

Great app

Can you set a default location for click and collect? 99% of the time I use my local store, yet when doing click and collect I have to input the location for EVERY item I add to basket. Gets rather tedious. Otherwise works well.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your feedback and suggestion. This requirement has been passed onto our product team, who are always looking for ways to improve our customers experience within the app. You should expect to see this change in a future app update in the coming months. Many thanks.
