Marks and Spencer I will not order off them again!

Marks and Spencer - www.marksandspencer.com

I placed an order last night on the Internet to be delivered to a relatives address and had a confirmation reply stating delivery 3rd-22 Dec which was fine as I requested it was a Christmas order.

I then checked my order in 'My Account' on their web-site only to read. o expect delivery 5th Nov. Then within 1 hr of me placing the order and (as the recipients will think I am bonkers) sending a Christmas gift so early, I attempted to cancel it.. via e-mail direct to M&S. They replied within first thing this morning after only having the order overnight to say it was not possible to cancel it as it was 'on its way'. I e-mailed again several times during today to say that according to their confirmation invoice sent to me via e-mail, they would be sending me an e-mail again once the goods were dispatched... however this has not yet happened, so how can it be 'on its way?' I e-mailed yet again to tell them this, but they will not budge and insist they cannot cancel my order and it will be delivered. My complaint is, that, why are companies allowed to tell consumers in confirmation e-mails one date and then just do their own thing and expect us to fall in line? How can I refuse delivery if it is being delivered elsewhere, and I now have to contact these people and explain things and I am out of the country as it happens, more costs to myself. Marks and Spencer just don't seem to care one way or another. I only made the order late last night! Surely consumers should have at least 24hrs to cancel an order. And I will not order off them again. Regards. M. Hewitt.

I placed an order with Marks and Spencer that was supposed to be delivered to my home address. Instead it was sent to a location and hour and a half away. This iis unacceptable.

We always shop at Marks and Spencer, love their food, never had a complaint, but, the last item we bought, as per photo, was meant to feed 2 people. Unfortunately there was probably only enough for one person as per

Tried to contact customer services yesterday to make complaint about flowers that were sent to me for mothers day yesterday. First time staff hung up on me after10mins on hold and second time as I couldn't provide an order they hung up on me again. Tried later on day with no help-appalled at service and will certainly not recommend them.

Vanguard Park M & S coffee shop

The coffee quality is, once again, very poor and weak. So disappointing, when the café is a welcoming break from shopping. Good layout, lovely service staff, but UGH the coffee is like water! The scones were lovely, however...but there's never enough cheese for my husband in his cheese scone...
