i bought a suitcase last month ! I got to the airport and the handle came away! not even used the suitcase! so i explained this to mataln when i was on holiday via chat and when i came back! i couldn't not find my receipt would they refund it or give me a credit note for the faulty suitcase that they sold me £70 ? no! i have never known a shop to not even go into the system to find the receipt when i have the date and time of my purchases plus my online banking proof. it would take a few minutes to go and search on a till. clearly not important to them to lose customers over something so simple to rectify! also i can't actually find a valid email address to complain to either !

I was given a Matalan Me card in store today by your sales assistant when I told her we didn't have one, she said to scan the QR code to register online. Unfortunately that is wrong information as apparently you have to register the card in store first before you can link the card to your account according to your chat feature online. I suggest your staff in store require additional sales training

Tried for 2 days to return 2 items to Matalan. I used their Return Tool but despite entering the correct order number repeatedly got error message. They are not contactable by phone and Live Chat took a very long time to answer messages. Was finally told I could use Evri, (although I could not see anything on Matalan website that Evri can return items). The Evri link Live Chat sent didn't work. I took the parcel to a participating Parcel Shop which they accepted. I have very little confidence of obtaining money back on the returned items. I will not shop with Matalan again.

Paid for next day delivery but it didn't show up. However the following day I had a parcel show up that had been opened and resealed. The items were missing and replaced with a pillow. Matalan are taking no responsibility for this. They aren't interested in my video footage or photos. Terrible company! Oh and you can't upload a photo on here....funny that! Rubbish!

We bought two suitcases at Matalan last Thursday. The quality of the suitcases impressed us. We got exceptional help from Chloe when we came to pay. She renewed my Matalan card which enabled us to get 10 percent off our bill. Chloe is a credit to Matalan Hartlepool. Very pleasant efficient and knowledgeable.

Kept my money Kept my money! Would not buy online and will not buy again. I am due a refund of nearly £100 for items I returned via Matalan's online portal, yes I had to pay extra to return as they don't offer free returns. After 2 months of battling this I have received £16.00, the customer service is disappointingly rude and obnoxious. The constant blame being out on the customer - I followed their process!

I'm just at the till point in Rotherham doing a return. The member of staff Alicia has not spoken to me once whilst she's chewing her gum.she never called me over to the till, I had to guess which one she was to use! Not the service I would expect

I am a disabled customer trying to get a suit for a funeral tomorrow but I can only contact a main number not individual store so I have to try to get to store to ask a question. In this day and age its appalling service

I bought 2 suitcases recently and paid for next day delivery as it was my day off work. It didn't come next day. Evri sent me a message to say that the 'Parcels were bigger than expected' to had to be sent via a special courier. Waste of paying for next day delivery really wasn't it! I'm aware that this could be a fault of evris but it was matalan I paid next day delivery to. Maybe they should update their systems so that you cannot pay next day delivery for a larger item

Matalan really came through for me! I was looking for some affordable stuff for an upcoming event, and I found exactly what I needed on their website. The prices were great, the quality was even better than I expected, and everything arrived right on time. It honestly took the stress out of shopping. Plus, their home section had some lovely little finds that brightened up my space. Matalan made me feel like I got great value without compromising on style – that definitely put a smile on my face!
