I went into your Truro store after work to buy some birthday presents. Went to pay and the woman behind the only manned till said I had to use the self service till as her till was for returns only. Is it too much to ask for a normal till with a friendly assistant ?

I was sent something entirely different from what I ordered. I was told to post it back (even though it wasn't my fault). I was eventually told to post it back and they would reimburse me the postage. Of course, they haven't refunded me for the postage and I'm still waiting for the refund for the items sent back. How they've been in business for so long is truly amazing.

Cuffed Cargo Trousers (mens). The item was described and sold as 'Long' 33 inch inside leg. They actually measure 31.5 inches so are far shorter than they should be. Disappointed because other than that they are made from a nice material and look good apart from being too short!

I hate the self service checkouts, bring back the staff. You always have to ask a member of staff, for some sort of help anyway. The stores don't look right.

Where the heck is my order, emails, replies all automatic, phone calls to a guy who didn't care a hoot! He tells me it's dispatched, Courier not received anything, It's too bad of you Matalan, wish I'd read these reviews before ordering, Looks like I have to write off £43, a can't get a refund till I receive and return goods, what a shambles

I always consider Matalan in buying clothes for special occasions but I have noticed for such a long time now that I didn't have a chance to write a review about their mirror, it's very limited and if you want to use one, you have to walk far away to the middle of the shop and look everywhere. Not impressed at all. I hope they will put an extra mirror for the customers who don't need to go to fitting room. Thank you

Placed order 25 August also paid the £1.99 for express click & collect. I received email on 26 August to say order been dispatched. Nothing since, I tried to email customer services and j Hargreaves the MD. Both emails bounced back saying cannot deliver. So I rang customer services on 31 August the lady said she would get straight on it and I'd receive email with update. Surprise surprise- still nothing. Its absolutely disgusting and unacceptable customer service. I wanted outfit for last weekend. Nothing. Hoped maybe could wear this weekend, not looking good 😕 I'll never buy online again with Matalan. A little communication goes a long way

Terrible, why on earth have would you think that self service tills are the way forward? I certainly won’t be shopping at matalan again simply due to this reason and I’m not the only one, for goodness sake bring back your sales cashiers and stop trying to cut costs, people need jobs now more than ever!

I would award 0 stars if I could . I ordered 2 separate orders and paid for next day delivery 5 day later still no order . I spoke to a man from customer service that really couldn’t be bothered and he insisted that Hermes had delivered my items. More or less making out I was lying about not receiving the clothes I had ordered. It’s a shame as I was a good customer and I will now never order on line from matalan again . Now just waiting to see if I get my refund . Not a happy customer!

Went to Matalan Yeovil for the first time. Never again!!! Woman at checkout was really rude and patronising and the customer she was serving made a racist comment about me to her. Bearing in mind the type of person she was I decided to ignore it as you never know when knives might come out. I'm sticking with normal shops with normal, polite staff.

What ever has happened to Matalan. Email will respond in 72 hours.Never happens Matalan says they will look into it. Never happens If they just told you they couldn’t care less, which is obvious the case you could at least stop trying to get your refund and get on with you life Questions irrelevant because don’t give option of NEVER

I spent over £200 online hoping I’d find a nice new outfit to wear on a first date. When the parcel arrived everything had security tags still attached. I don’t live near a Matalan store so I decided to return the clothes. However, the don’t offer free returns and I had to pay £17 for return shipping!!! I spoke to Matalan about this and they said there was nothing they could do about it. Then my tracking said it was delivered months ago but they have never refunded me. Poor poor service, absolute sham

Returned goods to Matalan. Refund £12 short. Emails do not get answered. Not resolved with phone call. Will avoid in future. Stay clear . Questions that follow review should have the option of NEVER
