“Quality of wine is good but getting a bit fed up with my local store frequently being out of stock of wine on offer when I ring to place an order.”

“They made me very unhappy my restaurant has not placed an order in four weeks,because they were so rude I have now got a new supplier.Rowan Goumley has his work cut out.I was a customer for 7 years with great service and customer care why has it gone so bad, I do not expect to get any response to this review.”

“’ve placed two separate orders with Majestic, and they have managed to screw them both up. Paid extra for nominated delivery and didn’t get it on the nominated day on both occasions. On the latest order they substituted a bottle of Bollinger for a cheap bottle of of Zinfandel. Call centre told me they wouldn’t send one bottle out! Offered a refund or I could drive across town to the local store. Oh good. Well done Majestic 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻”

“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.”

“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”

“Have been a regular customer at Majestic for a number of years. Usually pop into the shop and buy. I have been trying to contact my local branch in Warrington for the past 3 days to place an order to collect. Left a message and waiting for a call back! Very disappointed. Never had problems before.”

“Always USED to shop in their stores but find we have to check the invoice at the till as some 'reductions' that show on the price tags on the shelves, don't reach the tills. WE only noticed when the total, after a large shop, was a good few £s more than we had worked out. Recently, we had a long conversation with Majestic management and it seems some 'reductions' are sent to the stores 'manually' for the staff to print off the reduction price tag for the shelf and then to add the new price onto the tills BUT sometimes it seems staff forget to do that. We shopped in three different stores over over a period of 18 months, 'human error' meant we were overcharged at the tills FOUR TIMES! Apparently there's nothing that can be done about it because it is 'human error' so, in other words they can't guarantee that these 'manual' price reductions will reach the tills! SO CHECK BEST YOU MAKE A MENTAL NOTE OF THE TOTAL AND CHECK WHAT THEY SAY THE TOTAL IS AT THE TILL BEFORE YOU PAY!! It's a real shame because they have a great selection of wine but in this day and age of digital technology you would have thought that there wouldn't be any need for manual input of prices. What we don't know is how much we'd overpaid on the very many occasions we shopped at Majestic stores without checking the amount we were given at the tills!!”

“Do not trust them ti send wine that you can't check that the items have been delivered. Several bottles of wine missing (8) they didn't even know that it hadn't been delivered. If I hadn't of checked that the recipient counted the gift case no one would of known! Check check and check again! I just don't trust this company due to there lack of awareness.”

“I was sending a gift to a family member. I noticed within minutes of ordering I had one digit wrong on the address. I immediately telephoned Majestic to ask them to correct the address. The person I spoke to was unable to correct and said they would try to cancel my order but they could not guarantee. I asked them if there was anyway to assure that this order would not be delivered to the wrong house but I did not receive a positive answer. I wrote to Majestic to complain but received a reply basically to say this is how their system operates. In other words tough if you make an error. They did cancel the order but needless to say I didn't re order with Majestic as I don't feel I can trust them to be helpful.”

“Phoned Milton Keynes to place order - 'Sorry, very busy, please leave number, we'll ring back.' Oh no they didn't - seven calls (or was it eight?) well spread out. Two emails, not even acknowledged. No way of getting there myself (age, infirmity, 100 miles drive), so 'Sorry, family, you'll have to get your own drinks this year.'”

“Terrible customer service Ordered a Christmas case of wine on the 29th of November (ORDER NUMBER 37692722) which Majestic never sent to the courier. Phoned up three times and eventually a call handler said she would get it delivered from the nearest shop, but she’d have to substitute some of the wine as it was out of stock. She also said she’d get me a couple more bottles as compensation for all the hassle. A delivery driver from the local store turned up the next day, banged on the windows and left two very scruffy boxes on the doorstep with 12 bottles of wine in them and shouted “there you go mate” before zooming off again. Very poor service from Majestic wine. I didn’t feel like a valued customer and needless to say I won’t be using them again. AVOID!”

“This company was instructed to deliver wine to ourselves as a Christmas present. The company use YODEL as the couriers, who have zero feedback, so I woke this morning to see a box of broken wine bottles in my drive, thank goodness nobody was hurt I contacted the company and they don't want to know!! AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS - GO SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE”

“Appalling lack of service from young male assistant at Majestic Maidenhead. Having a major party in 2 weeks. As everyone should know, ice is essential, especially for over 100 people to be catered for. He said, first we have a problem with the ice suppliers and only have one driver on a Sunday. We can deliver on the Saturday. I said its ice. Well, he said, haven't you got anywhere to store it. I said 10 bags?? I said I don't like your attitude. He said, what do you mean attitude? I'm just telling you the truth. I left”

“After waiting for 6 days for my delivery, I was told that it would be with me within 1 to 7 days. I asked for it to be delivered within 24 hours or I would cancel the order (over £250). Really efficiently, they cancelled the order and I was then told I should have chosen a specified delivery date. So is it my fault that they cannot deliver within the dates they set? Last time with Majestic Wines for me.”

“I have spent hundreds of pounds on wine with majestic. My order today was only half the order paid for. No explanation no email. Absolutely impossible to get to speak to someone. Waited over 30 minutes and just on hold. Emailed no response. Rang the local provider no answer. Received an email saying the order was delivered. I’m furious”

“Had to tell them my order was short of 27% or 5 out of 18 bottles. No offer of replacement without additional payment on my part. Won’t bother again.”

“Terrible customer service. Ordered wine well before Christmas abs it didn’t turn up at all. Ring ( after being on hold for over an hour) before Christmas and they still said it would arrive in time. It didn’t. Utterly hopeless.”

“Treats it’s customers with contempt. Late delivery without explanation. 45 min wait to reach customer services. Promised delivery and call back. Neither have occurred. No response to email enquiry. Order placed in good time before Christmas - they cannot be surprised to be busy at this time of year. Very poor.”
