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.

    • Exactly that.  From all their communications at the time I just assumed it was something that was going to be done anyway so I just went along with it.  As per Froggy’s suggestion above I just went out to have a look at the readings (for the first time ever!) and it said 000078,231.  That’s for just short of three years.  I’ve no idea how that would translate to an actual bill though.  
    • Thanks both! Unfortunately my mobile doesn't support a charging mat. I will try the place by the station, which is more convenient for me than Forest Hill Road  I'm avoiding Rye Lane as my daughter had a very bad experience at one of the shops there (I think it was a battery replacement and the "new"  battery failed almost immediately. Unfortunately she doesn't live in London and couldn't take it back) and there are so many I don't know which may be ok.
    • No, unlike power meters they can force one on you, whether you want one or not. They did on me, and it's on the stopcock in the pavement outside my house. They can also force you to accept metered charges. 
    • They said you didn’t have a meter even though you did? Utterly bizarre.   I also thought that the water company wasn’t allowed to fit a meter unless you asked for one.
