Marks and Spencer

Recommended Posts

Have twice now ordered ready made platters of sandwiches for a funeral lunch from Marks and Spencers on Lordship Lane supposedly to pick up from 9am onwards and twice now the delivery has not arrived in full until 11am. The first time that was too late for the funeral, the second funeral was later so we managed to go back and pick up the rest. V. Stressful. M&S have not been particularly helpful in investigating this and cannot reassure me that this wouldn't happen again in the future.


It's not something that most us do very often but having done it twice and had it go wrong twice, just wondered if anyone else has had a similar experience.


M&S are sure that my experience is just a blip, or two random blips coinciding!


Maybe they are right but I won't be risking it a third time.

I have had reason to complain to M&S several times, and their customer services have always been extremely helpful (including in one case where sadly the local store was not at all helpful).


I contacted customer services online. If that's what you have already done and they weren't helpful, then I agree, email the CEO. That usually gets results :))


ETA: Even if you aren't bothered about compensation, which I wasn't but they offered it anyway, it at least may prevent somebody else from having the same bad experience.

One of my complaints wasn't about sandwich deliveries, but it was about food delivery for Christmas 2018, when we were left without crucial parts of our food order for our Christmas meal.

    • There are two causes for this problem Β  The first is that modern safety requirements for cars (to protect pedestrians and cyclists in collisions) mean huge amounts of excess spacing in crumple zones to provide a cushion on impact. For example, in the past a lot of pedestrians suffered catastrophic head injuries when they ran in front of a car, because the bonnet was close to the engine block, so their heads bent the bonnet into the solid immovable engine and their heads cam off worse. To mitigate that there is now a huge amount of flex and space so that the head is cushioned from the engine. Naturally, the rest of the body work and car frame has had to increase to accommodate this safety measure. Β  The second issue is electrification. Β  Electric cars are massive because they have to carry huge batteries around to make them work. Massive amounts of space and height is given over to batteries in electric cars. The new electric Renault 5 (described as a "compact" hatch back) is nearly 4 metres long 2 metres wide.Β  Β  That makes it longer and wider than the original Range Rover.Β 
    • Pretentious status vehicles.Β  Last year I was trying to drive down my own street but, being in a little, inferior car, was expected to make way for a stream of SUVs / Chelsea tractors as they barged along beside me. After what felt like an age, I saw a window of opportunity, but was beaten to it by yet another tank. By this stage I was irate (I hate the things) and having a full on shouting match with myself behind the wheel.Β  A Tesla in the oncoming queue pulled in, flashed and courteously allowed me to take my moment. The Tesla's windows were tinted, but not so much that I wasn't able to make out the driver, as I passed him. I'd recognise that mega-watt smile anywhere. It was Peter Crouch, laughing and giving me the thumbs up, clearly entertained by my tantrum.Β 
    • I recently had a utility room built, next to the kitchen. Dean Richards and his team carried out the works, they did a fantastic job. Thorough, with attention to every detail.Β  If you are considering an extension, refurbishment or renovation, Dean comes highly recommended.Β  Dean RichardsΒ  07888 651798 Β
