How to File Halfords Complaints On Your Own

Like most large corporations, Starbucks or British Gas, these days, Halfords tries its best to refer its customers to its FAQ page. Trying to force people to search for a solution for their problem on a FAQ page or forum is merely a way of not having to deal with customers.

Halfords is a perfect example of a company that tries to steer its customers towards its FAQ page with each click. For example, on its "How to Contact Us" page, it features a big button that says "Back to all FAQs." You have to click a small plus symbol at the top right of the page to find other ways to contact Halfords. That leads you to a page offering four customer service team options:
