Recently, I bought a pair of trousers, a blouse, and a jacket, but sadly, they never showed up. I've been struggling to get in touch with customer service about it. I placed my order a few weeks ago and got confirmation of it being shipped, but the items never made it to me. I've been trying to contact customer service for weeks now, to no avail. There's no email to reach out to, and the website contact form isn't doing the job. I even called the help centre, but they said they'd look into it and then nothing happened. It's all been rather frustrating and disappointing – I'm starting to think this might be a bit of a scam.
Food quality and pricing
The food here is alright, but the prices are way too high. I wasn't impressed with the stuff on sale either, it all looked old-fashioned and not very nice. It seems like the people in charge don't really know what customers want these days.
Online order mix-up
I recently ordered a shirt online, but was a bit gutted when I got trousers instead. Mistakes can happen, but what really annoyed me was how long it took to get a refund. Compared to other companies, the whole process was way slower than it needed to be, which was a right pain.
Lost wallet, helpful staff
So, you know what happened? I went and lost my wallet in the shop. It was a right old disaster because all my money for sweets was in there. But then, would you believe it, this woman called Pam came along and was like a guardian angel. She helped me out and took my details. And guess what? Later on, the night cleaner found my wallet! Those two really deserve a gold star for being so kind. The service they provided was truly amazing, and it made me so happy.
Pram shopping at store
During our last trip to the store, we went with our daughter who was searching for a new pram in the baby section. The staff, particularly Kelly, were really helpful and knowledgeable about the various pram models. They guided us on what features to look out for when making a choice. It ended up being a really nice shopping trip.
Trousers falling down
I've just bought some trousers, but the hems won't stay up - so annoying! The flowers I ordered are way overdue, with terrible updates, I can't even follow what's happening. The Sparks offers have vanished, such a letdown. The only positive is the bread, but it's not even on the Sparks offers. Customer service is ignoring me completely, not cool. This loyalty scheme is a joke, more like a creepy Big Brother scheme!
Clothing
When I look back at the quality and prices from a few years ago, it's a bit disappointing to see what's happening now. The clothes I bought were definitely not worth the high price. It seems like we're going through the same thing all over again, and that's not great.
Food shopping at M&S
I go to M&S quite often for my food shopping. I like that the products are good quality and reasonably priced, so I always return there. However, I've noticed that the staff at the tills can sometimes be a bit rude, which is a shame because overall my experience is normally positive in the store. Also, I have to say that the women's clothes aren't as good as the food, as the options are often not very stylish or well-made. Lastly, my online shopping hasn't been great either, as some expensive items arrived in bad packaging.
Shoes
I recently purchased these shoes online and they are just adorable, but gosh, the delivery took forever! The website promised 3-5 days, but it felt like ages! And the courier didn't even bother keeping me updated on where my package was. It was so frustrating!
Online purchase confusion
I went online to order some clothes, but when I got to the store, it was so strange - there were screens on the wall instead of actual people to assist me. The lady there was really snooty and rude when I tried to explain that I didn't know about the new setup. It was really disappointing and made me feel like I was being unfairly treated.
Summer Beauty Box purchase
I bought the Summer Beauty Box from the shop not long ago, but it got lost in the post by the delivery company. I got in touch with customer service to sort it out, but they wouldn't send me a replacement box. They did give me my money back, which was nice, but I was still pretty disappointed with how it was handled. I've been a loyal customer for ages, but this whole situation has put me off. I don't think I'll be shopping with them again in the future.
Love the food section
Great store, especially the food section.
I love their special juices and cookies ;)
