Has Marks and Spencer refused you a refund? Post details here.
M&S make a big thing about their returns policy but it seems thay are not always honouring it nowadays.

Return flat-pack furniture
The right to return low quality goods seems to be a bit unfair when it comes to flat pack furniture. I got a filing cabinet from Argos, and I checked all the parts before putting it together. However during assembly it soon became apparent how poor quality it is. As I screwed parts together through the guide holes, the…
