This is a customer review on the tiles this can be the case with a lot of tiles, a good tiler would still be able to do a better job than you have taken pictures of.

Wickes tiles can be bad for quality and size issues, this certainly isn't helping, bit even still the tiler should be working the size issues out or coming to you to discuss if they are that bad they are unworkable or beyond his level of skill, or lack of it

It's very, very poor. Little or no background preparation.
Setting out non-existent. Full tile into a corner, obviously assuming the walls are plumb which they never are. Tiled straight off bath edge.
And that's just the bits we can see.

Nowt awkward about it!
You tell him it's crap and your not prepared for him to continue otherwise it will cost him more when you have to pay someone else to get it redone professionally .
You take the tiles back to Wicks that are left and get your money back.
Then you use the Tilers Forum directory for someone local, check them out, and have them do the job!

Hi
Poor wall preparation ( looks like straw walls? )holes need to be made up and should be primed.
Poor tiling. Can't see any adhesive, so looks like it's dot and dabbed!
Poor tiles. He's got no chance keeping the joints level, if the tiles are that far out. ( maybe you could measure some. .)
