“Placed click and collect order on 28/12/20. Received email to collect order then 2 days later another email to say order being posted. Since then 5 alternate conflicting emails, no telephone assistance available despite saying call CS. Now email saying i have to wait 10 days for refund. Chaotic service, will never shop at Matalan again.”

“I placed my order on 3rd of Jan and they told me it had been despatched on the 5th when in fact they've only just despatched it on the 21st. I've had many emails ignored and was lied to in the one and only email I did receive back. The customer service is non existent and there's no apology in sight. Stop blaming covid and stop blaming your delivery company, this is a problem with Matalan and the reviews on trustpilot prove that.”

“Ordered an XL mens cardigan to be delivered to Hull Kingswood store and yes the parcel did arrive... a pair of girls pink wellies! I emailed CS, to be told to return to store or post back to them and pay the postage myself and they'd refund. I duly took back to the store which was closed as it was a Saturday, which was a round trip of 30 miles. Finally got them back to the store and was told I would be notified within 24 hours of a refund. Still waiting after 4 days.. Sandra”

“I always shopped at other p,,,,k stores as I thought good and cheap but over the years I’ve realised that other stores do not offer the quality and reductions that Matalan’s offer in their goods as I’m a very fussy where quality goes and you win me over 1000% thankyou”

“What Customer Service - does it actually exist? Shocking way to conduct business. Poor in store service and no after service. If you could rate them as Zero I would. I understand that Covid has impacted on businesses this year but this is not acceptable.”

“Received two christmas polar bears, when arrived both were smashed to pieces. Emailed Matalan several times along with photos but NO response. I know its only £18.00 plus delivery but its better in my pocket than theirs. Basically if I don't get money refunded they have stolen from me!”

“After one month waiting for the Sonic top and one week for customer service to reply to my message , I finally found out that they lost the parcel, just a few days before Christmas. You should be ashamed.Thats the first and last time I'll buy something from Matalan. There is a hundred another shops who wouldn't let their customer down.”

“Goods not received. Email sent by matalan to say part of the order had been returned with refund. I WANT MY ORDER HONOURED. I see that matalan states order not a contract until delivered. That's v odd as contact law states that contract is binding when money taken. Money was taken by matalan. No mention of second part of the order. Date of delivery has passed. Nothing delivered. Email x2 to matalan with no response. No phone service How can a business operate this way? I note that matalan has four stars in reviews How??? Trust pilot has much lower rating and rates matalan as BAD - lowest of 5 ratings.”

“I ordered five items on 1st December in the half price sale. I received a confirmation email. Money was taken from my account for £70 I was advised that home delivery would take place between 11-15th December (a long time, but the impact of covid...) I then find an email stating I would get a refund on 3 of the goods I ordered following my return. I had NOT returned any items as I have NOT RECEIVED them. Tried ringing but phonetics are not staffed due to heavy online traffic (????). I have emailed querying what has happened. I have checked website, items are available but now full price - so they ARE in stock. The website states that Christmas delivery deadline has passed!!! The customer experience has been awful. The website terrible and no effort to properly inform customers. I am wondering if this company is going under.”

“Goods not received, phone lines shut and an email address that never answers. So Christmas presents you are unsure you will receive at all and no way of getting money back. I always buy online from here but will never again now”
