“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 wasn’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 can’t send the item back. Didn’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. Don’t even understand how this company can survive…”

“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 “told the terms and conditions when I bought the gift card” I didn’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.”

“Only 1 till open and 4 people queuing, which took forever because the person being served had a query. The person trying to get customers to use the self-service tills would have been more useful behind a till, but she just stood there aimlessly. Several staff were milling about behind the tills but made no attempt to open another one. I don’t shop there very often and will be reluctant to again. Matalan obviously has no regard for their customers and think we have all the time in the world. Abysmal customer service. In fact NONE.”

“Extremely poor customer service. Matalan does not like giving refunds, even when their items are faulty and not fit for use. Staff use intimidating and passive aggressive methods to make you feel awful for returning am item. I advice everyone to get knowledgeable on customers rights before dealing with them.”

“1 star really is too much for such a pathetic service..... I dare customer service to contact me and ask me for my reasons...... You really are abysmal. You have wasted far too much of my time on this matter..... I'd rather dig my eyes out with a red hot poker than order anything from you again! Order number 50663857 Ref MAT15789376X”

“Unfortunately the shoe sizing is incorrect on your website. The size guide says a ladies shoe 8 is a 42. I am definitely a 42 with shoes. Ordered online a pair of sandals size 8 and they were a 41 so knew straight away they wouldn't fit. Very disappointed”

“Ordered 2 tops online. Luckily had photos of order and payment details. Should have checked them instore. Both incorrect. I returned them to store and they had real trouble refunding as the details on the invoice was wrong. A long queue materialised behind me and I felt really sorry for the staff. Apparently this scenario is not unusual. I live quite a way from the store so won’t be ordering online again.”

“Ordered 2 items using a discount code. I thought I had got a real good deal. After a while I was told that the items are out of stock. However, I checked their site and I could still order them. Of course my discount can’t be used again?? It was a one off?? It disappeared! I feel the company doesn’t want to sell me the items cheaper. I was going up collect in store, I also checked another item and no click and collect available so was going to be charged £10.00 delivery for all items, including the 2 seat garden bench cover is far too steep!! They really need to look at their delivery charges. Other company’s charge £3.50 for standard delivery, compared to £10.00 that is way to expensive. Going into the store is a good experience but on-line shopping is very very disappointing.”
