They are taking orders for Christmas knowing they have no way possible of delivering them and no intention of telling you until you ring them and are prepared to be on hold for 40mins+. Their operative also told me their warehouse staff know nothing about wine, so rather than "send you an appropriate item to the same or higher value" as their website suggests, they simply short ship you. Ironically, while being told my delivery gift will never reach my parents in time for Christmas, they were still selling the same package on their website, so basically a fraudulent offer guaranteed to disappoint you. Shambolic and well worth avoiding!

My first experience with Majestic delivered wine. Great wine and helpful staff However, they use Yodel for delivery. Avoid any company that uses Yodel. The Yodel left my £160 wine in the rain for several days. I was lucky the wine was not stolen I got a £10 bottle refund but will I buy from them again, jury is out. However, I am encouraged by other positive reviews.

They didn’t deliver half my order and didn’t even contact me about it. I had to chase with various emails and calls. After many emails they offered me a bottle of wine that I don’t even drink . They sent it to the wrong address. The worst part is no one on the phone even apologised for the massive inconvenience this has all caused. We spend £200 a month at majestic wine and have had too many issues so we will stop. A free bottle of wine for many issues is not great at all.

Very disappointed. They use yodel who have trouble finding us. They supposedly tried twice. After many emails they sent the wine from local branch. They had trouble finding us. They did have phone contact. Offered £10..00 off next order

As a customer at their Haslemere branch, very impressed with the advice, support and ongoing service bot prior to and throughout lockdown. Thanks team!

Terrible first-time experience with Majestic Wine. I ordered six bottles of wine, which arrived smashed so I refused to take them. The second time they arrived in a damaged, opened box. On top of this, even though my payment was shown as being 'paid', a month after placing my order I received an email demanding payment. I phoned Majestic Wine's customer service number and was greeted by a very condescending member of staff. I made a card payment over the phone as instructed, after being told the first payment had passed it's authorisation date. I will definitely be checking my bank statement very closely. I have never before came across such an usual payment system. I strongly recommend you avoid Majestic Wine at all costs!

Brilliant! My local Majestic is Barnstaple and I could not be happier! All of the staff, from discussing my order to delivery, are friendly, knowledgable and totally customer focussed. highly recommend!

My local Majestic wine have been doing a fantastic during lockdown. Telephone orders taken by the friendly staff and delivered next day to the front door. Excellent quality wine at competitive prices with the added benefit of staff with excellent product knowledge. Not just wine 🍷 either, beer, spirits and mixers too. Well done Majestic!

Truly a pleasure to deal with Majestic Wine. Helpful, knowledgeable staff. Great range of stock, sensible prices. Website is helpful & easy to use. Stores are great, but we are going to have to wait till Covid19 has been resolved for store visits... Cheers!

Self isolating 71 yr old with underlying health conditions and running out of food with no supermarket on line shopping slots available. However I rang my local Colchester Majestic branch to see if I could order wine plus some mixers - arrived 2 hrs later. Happy days! Now if they could only sell food too ...... Many thanks for great service and great wine!

I have been a customer for many years, but now never again. Problem seems to be that they use Yodel for delivery, who first lost part of the delivery, claimed they had delivered it, then returned it damaged. Nothing from Majestic apart from taking full payment on my credit card. I've had to chase Majestic, who do not seem to be able to sort it out. Now after third attempt to contact them, they advise they will put it on back order, but no guarantee we will see it this side of Christmas.

Today after 5 years of not shopping with majestic wine my friend and I popped into the Battersea store to buy 12 bottles for my friends new flat... Natalie the manager is extremely blunt and rude- really unfriendly and was also blunt to the customer next to us. I understand from working in the wine trade the strain managers at majestic have- but I was embarrassed to take my friend as in her words ‘she was vile’ were said as we left. If I behaved or any of my staff behaved like that to my customers there would be a problem. Luckily I helped my friend choose wine and buy so you should give me commission for doing your job for you.

What a lovely and educated people at your Fulham store just right near the Putney Bridge Station. I came round 7PM and ask for a bottle of Rioja, the gentleman which I didn't catch a name and came as Rebecca on my receipt :( was just fabulous and made our end of day better to what it was all day :) Great customer service and knowledge, happy to be shopping there again! thank you Majestic

I have dealt with Majestic for years, their branch staff have always helpful and I have never had cause for to complain. Unfortunately I bought wine from their Kettering Branch in December, lured in by a deal of free wine glasses, again unfortunately I realised when getting home I had been charged for these. Originally I sent an e-mail to their Kettering branch, no response, tried again no response, and then I learned this branch had been closed. I then sent a further two emails to their Market Harborough Branch again no response. I think it is absolutely disgusting and arrogant for them to be ignored like this despite buying from them for many years and think I will continue trading with them. I have now sent an email over 7-days ago to their head office from their web site still no response, disgusting, I have closed my account with them; I do not want to deal with them anymore

Avoid like the plague. Don't be drawn in by their promises of cheap deals and being treated like a VIP. It wont happen. I normally use Waitrose Cellar but I thought I would give Majestic a try. I joined the concierge club which supposedly sees you being treated as a VIP. Ordered 2 cases of wine and due to the amount spent I was able to elect which day I would like the wine delivered. When I saw the carrier was Yodel I should have known. Oh yes...Yodel are their 'trusted partner' I wouldn't trust them to do my shopping let alone anything else. Anyway, it seems that Majestic cannot cope with an order that is more than one case (considering they are a wine warehouse this beggars belief) so I now have two parcels being delivered by Yodel. Guess what? Despite waiting in all day the wine never appeared. It was never out for delivery. Thursday morning and one box was still not out for delivery and the second box was still with Majestic despite having placed the order on Saturday An absolute joke of a company. They have one job. You order wine and they deliver it to you but this is totally beyond their capability. Needless to say cancelled order. Absolutely pathetic. DO NOT USE. Back to Waitrose Cellar. Lesson learned.

They are very helpful every time we go there and let us try some of the wines.They are so knowledgeable about all the wines in the shop and they even take your purchase to your car and load it for you. Brilliant service and great wines.

It is quite upsetting for me to write a critical review but this was my very last say towards my concerns with Majestic wine as I tried to resolve this with what they call "The customer happiness team" but certainly not happy enough to provide an efficient customer service. My order was cancelled without notification, money was put on hold on my account, and when I ring the customer service to express my concerns, I was told that the manager will ring me back to find that this manager never bothered to call me. It's a shame really because companies which are run this way feel so comfortable at present due to high volume of customers not realising that it's not about volume but it's about loyalty which can secure a future in any business. So many companies are going into admin because of internal issues but employees with no passion about the job disregard this until it results in them loosing their job but then they have the cheek to blame the company for not doing well not realising that they make the company, yes, people make or break a business but I guess I can only express my experience, whether you take it on board or not that's your choice.
