“I bought some lemon curd filled 'hot cross buns'. They were truly horrible - pappy & tasteless white bun with sweet lemon inside, not a bit like a HCB, ie no spice, no raisins - a lemon cake is one of my favourites, and I love a good hot cross bun, but this hybrid is not a success.”

“I purchased on the 2nd April 2025 a packet of British Roast Wiltshire ham. £3.65 I have never seen such thin ham, it was so thin it was transparent. It was so thin I couldn't peel a slice from the packet it fell apart. It made one sandwich and was tasteless. The worse ham, shame on you and £3.65 😡disgraceful!!”

“What has happened to the new-style repackaged Coronation Chicken - not a patch on the original. Afraid I will not be buying it again in the future as it was very bland and hardly a raisin to be found.”

“I don't know what is happening with M&S café at the moment? The food is really substandard and staff just don't care. The worst of the stores in our opinion would be Warrington, our breakfast came cold, we complained and 30 minutes later our replacement breakfast came and that was cold. We told this to the manager, she just seemed to accept it and gave us our money back??? We have had similar bad experiences at the Preston branch, so it doesn't look like we will be using M&S for eating in anymore but I really don't think they could care less”

“Ordered 2 clothing items online using my m and s account. Full payment taken. Delivered to an old address I've not lived at for nearly 4 years. Defaulted, apparently. Customer service trying to blame me. I've ordered and had delivered many items over the past few years. Not my error. They refuse to refund me. They were rude, arrogant and treated me with no respect on the phone, twice. I've lost over £100. Disgraceful.”

“During the past couple of years particularly this year, telephone Customer Service is lacking knowledge of products and their availability (for example at a particular store). And also, it seems they don’t know how to deal with queries with courtesy, accuracy and professionalism. I wanted to know if M&S have a particular organic green leaves available at one of their stores. Contacted M&S Customer Service for information, I couldn’t follow what the Customer Service rep. was saying, after a lot of toing and froing and insisting that I talk to a supervisor/manager, which initially was refused, insisted again and again. I was put on hold for a while and put through to a woman who was not interested to know what I was enquiring about, talking over me all the time and then accusing me of being abrupt and shouting, (worse than that). I didn’t get a chance to express my concern and she rudely ended the call. I was shocked that if she was a supervisor/manger not to be interested about my issue. I very much doubt that if she was of management level. “Very rude member of staff”. Very disappointing. Is this the way that customers are treated these days?”

“After checking stock for the local store at Newport Retail Park, we decided to go and buy ‘Poshdogs’ which were advertised at 3 packs for £12. We picked up 6 packets and proceeded to the till where we found no offer was available. When we finally saw the manager “Gareth” and showed him the offer he pointedly refused to honour it, just repeating that it didnt apply to this brach even though it was displayed on the site for that store. Very poor service, if its a mistake then the manager should honour the price shown. If its not a mistake then its false advertising.”

“I visited a M & S store for a birthday celebration food. I wanted to cook beef steak but I was very disappointed with the lack of choice available. Instead I purchased a Collection Butterflied Leg of Lamb and cheddar cheese mashed potatoes. After preparing both I found the lamb to be full of gristle and almost inedible. The mashed potatoes were not much better, there was no hint of cheddar cheese and the consistency was like that of chewing plasticine.”

“I like M&S and I am a good customer, therefore, especially after my recent experience in the East Dulwich store (Lordship Lane) , I need to tell you something about the bakery department. The bread is wrongly displayed as it is set too low and with no protection at all. When people approach the department the bread is often touched by people's coats or bags.. it is not protected by the customers hair, sneeze, or cough. All the bakery products are left for hours in these conditions. Furthermore, two days ago I saw an employee lining up all the muffins on the shelf with bare hands, no gloves, no tools!”

“I bought curries for dinner as I really wanted an evening off from cooking. Firstly, the choice was extremely limited in the Omagh store. This is often the case. It is chicken, chicken, chicken and more chicken.... I don t like chicken and usually take a prawn option. There were none and I had to take vegetable korma. I have to say that it was barely edible: greasy, vaguely sweet gloopy icky sauce with tiny mushy vegetables. Unbelievably disappointing. Never again.”

“My mum and I experienced the worst customer service in Branch today, both members of staff were incredibly rude and unhelpful. They were really impatient with my elderly mum, terribly disappointed in Marks! We won’t be returning to this branch anytime soon sadly.”

“I have returned two parcels via a Machine instore. There is no paper receipt, i was not notified they had received the parcel. ( When you return to a machine in NEXT you get immediate notification via text) . I called customer services who are not able to verify that the parcel is enroute to the warehouse for a refund to be given. Its a 14 day wait. However i did return another parcel on 28/12/24 and my refund was given on 04/01/25 so the 14 day rule did not apply then. Customer services are un-helpful and will not help me any further until after 14 days. I mean honestly what is going on. This morning i have emailed the CEO of M&S, I suggest he calls customer services to see the i dont care less response! It seems such an easy thing to do, pick your items/pay/collect? Prior to the machine doing your returns, when a human being took your returns this never happened.”

“Dealing with fraudulent online trades was a headache. They were glad to have me, but they closed my account when I generated a healthy profit. I was fortunate to find "Reaintell" because I had already investigated them and found that their business tactics were questionable and fraudulent. Their very experienced team helped me obtain all of the money back that I had been defrauded of. They were there for me the entire time and were a huge assistance. I can tell you with complete confidence that "Reaintell" is your greatest bet if money has been lost or stolen.”
