Website is very poor it changes sizes or info without you knowing until it is to late and order is placed, then you have to cancel it all and wait for 5-10 days for refund and re- order all again. Spoke to customer services aware of issues, not interested

What absolutely disgraceful customer service. I will never order from Matalan again. They have lost my order and do not reply to my emails. Rung them numerous times and told by the 'manager' they would respond in 48 hours with regards to my refund. What a surprise they did not respond. I have no goods and they have £115 of my money. Disgraceful matalan!!!

Ordered suitcases for upcoming holiday on 4th October. Receipt stated delivery within 3-5 days may be longer for larger items. Received an email on 9th October they are on their way. No further communication so I contacted customer services on the 11th to enquire where order was . Then informed. 1 had been dispatched, I informed them I would only make 1 trip to store so I expected the second to be in store shortly. This was not the case, following several phone calls ( the same answer was given to me - the second was on its way). Last phone call was the same I asked to speak to a manager the monies for the goods had been taken from my account and still no goods delivered. The manager could not even be bothered to speak to myself, left it to assistant. They even asked me to contact the shop myself. When I refused the assistant informed me the manager said I can have a refund. This is an appauling service. This is not the first time this has happened either my son ordered son shorts for delivery to store and they never arrived.

Posto sam redoviti kupac Matalan trgovine br268 Kinglsand centar imam strahovito lose iskustvo sa kupnjom. -osoblje jako lose i neprofesionalno,umjesto ljubaznosti na kupce se vice, Kada trazite pomoc ne dobijete je, redovi prilikom kupnje,duga cekanja, Neorganiziranost,puno reklamacija drugacija cijena na artiklu,nego na racunu imam dokaz racun od 18.10.2022. Takoder menader bi morao izaci i rijesiti reklamaciju uz izvinjenje a umjesto toga osoblje vice na vas. Matalan reward card beskorisna jer nemate nikakav popust,niti bonus da prilikom kupnje kao u drugim prodajnim centrima dobijete povoljniju cijenu ili bodove koji se pretvaraju u novac.Tako da mislim da se opcenito menadzment Matalana ne brine o svojim potrosacima! Iz svega navedenog ne preporucam nikome kupnju u tom prodajnom objektu! Zdenka Heric dipl.oec.

Matalan should be ashamed of themselves..You place an order online as the stores don't stock everything.Surprise Surprise it doesn't arrive instore for click & collect. Declared a missing parcel by Evri delivery team. I know Evri is not the best sometimes but surely can't be their fault all the time.I'm convinced Matalan is not sending out the parcels & keeping our cash for some length of time before refunding.Come on Matalan if Evri is that bad why do you continue to keep using them.Will never order online ever again or for that matter I will never go back into your stores ever again.Your customer service instore is as bad as your online service which is nonexistent.

Terrible customer service when retuning by courier. Had proof of return but after 4 emails and a telephone call still no refund of £100. Thank goodness I paid with PayPal as had this problem before. Reported to them and I actually had an email off a live person at Matalan and not automated. PayPal have now issued a refund. Havent had it yet. Please check you bank accounts.

Order 54115662 ordered on 21st September 22. After many e mails and phone calls and promises I have now been told by phone it is lost. It is now 10th October , I could have told them that after a week not 20 days. Money being refunded to my old bank card they won't refund to my new card so now have the hassle of trying to sort out with bank. I stopped going in shop because of long queues with self serve tills now I will stop shopping online with them too.

I went into Matalan at exeter today to get clothes for my grandkids and they have covered or ripped off the actual price tag and putting new ones on which is more expensive than the original price on the clothing items. I dont think this should be allowed things are expensive enough so why are Matalan ripping customers off.

Terrible customer service at slough store. 1 person on cash till another member of staff standing doing nothing but would not help on till. She was obviously very important person. Customers complaining but just told by important person not to be rude. Slough has lost a lot of customers and this attitude of staff is why.

Delivery far better than click & collect. Arrived on time will never use click &collect again after being made to wait stupid amount of time plus the till areas a lot to be desired so so untidy. Gone are the days to be served by a nice assistant. Hate the serve yourself who came up with that someone at head office sitting at his desk!!!!

Visited Basildon store today to collect an item ordered, huge queue and only one person serving. The area behind the tills was a disgrace and looked like a jumble sale with parcels, clothing etc just thrown in heaps. When I asked where the manager was it fell on deaf ears. Someone needs to sort the staffing out and the general area behind the tills. Some customers abandoned their purchases and walked out.

Very, very disappointed with Click & Collect service. Placed an order on 26th July, received an email informing me that items had been despatched and they would be in store for collection between 29-31 July. Tried to cancel order and be refunded on 3rd August and received an email that I couldn't cancel because it was being prepared to be despatched, having previously been told it HAD been despatched. Today, 4th August, still not arrived in collection store.

Good selection of products but I am fed up of the queues at the till. Only 2 out of 7 tills were manned today (5 are self service that nobody wanted to use - including me!). Staff are doing their best but please - more manned checkouts and less self service tills!!
