Placed a order on 26th September which has not been delivered so I contacted matalan customer service which was a waste of time, they are as useful a a astray on a motorbike ,they simply ignore emails Looks like I will have to take my issue up with trading standards.

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.

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.

Management skills seriously need looking at....rude staff talking about other members of staff and passing comments about customers....I don't go into a shop to get insulted and made fun off.

Something gone seriously wrong with Matalan service. Ordered jumper for home delivery which was 'lost in transit'. Hassle of getting refund as wasnt even given option of replacement but was still in stock so reordered for in store collection. Got email to say to collect. Went to disorganised store and waited ages while looking to be told it was 'lost'. At this time frustrated and asked to speak to manager. Clearly disinterested when came and told nothing she could do. No apology, help to find where missing or to contact anyone. Left really upset and frustrated. Rang customer services to be told no complaints department but manager would ring back in hour. They didnt. I rang back and to be fair man was apologetic and said very poor service and would feedback. Appears item is not in stock and wasn't lost in transit! God knows why they send these messages then and i was asked to collect non existant item. Another refund. To cap it all just checked again and website saying in stock. What on earth is going on, sort yourselves out!! Won't be returning any time soon.

I wish I could give 0 stars to this company. I ordered 3 items on an order, of which 2 were dispatched and 1 was cancelled stating that the item is out of stock. I could clearly see online that it wasnā€™t out of stock, and was able to place an order to get the one item which was apparently out of stock. The 2 items on the first order were dispatched, only for the courier to receive it and send it back to the Matalan rather than delivering it to my doorstep. Matalan then turn around and state that they will refund and canā€™t send the item back. Didnā€™t make any effort to help the customer in this instance. So good at disappointing customers. If you have time, money and patience then feel free to buy from this useless company. Donā€™t even understand how this company can surviveā€¦

Ordered some baby clothes using a refund card from Christmas gifts that were too small and also my own money. Vests arrived burst out of packet and with one missing. They insisted on only refunding the refund card even though I no longer had it, told me that was my problem because I was ā€œtold the terms and conditions when I bought the gift cardā€ I didnā€™t buy it, I was told nothing of the kind and why not just refund me the part I paid with cash?? Months of emails. Given up. Absolutely garbage customer service.
