Comments

One of my orders has completely vanished from the open / recently dispatched orders page and no email either! It had never moved from Order Placed and was due for delivery on the 10th December! Whiskey selection set, Port selection set, Festive fizz! others have reported these are the items out of stock (although Whiskey set is still available on their website!)
My other order says dispatching soon but when I look at my orders placed in 2009 it said it was dispatched on the 8th?0 -

I think my reply to M&S would be based on what was on the order.
How much was the order before discounts and what was the total with discounts. Was there other stuff on there too?"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -

OK...I suspect a number of people would tell you that it was a glitch and to forget about it...BUT....if it were me, I'd be emailing them simply because of the unfairness. I'd point out that hundreds of people were sent their order and ask why they appear to have a different policy at different times and with different people.
I dont think you'll get your order re-instated but you may get a goodwill gesture of some sort.
Poor show on M&S's part though. Given how many people have had their orders sent, it seems very unfair to cancel some because of the price error.
I'm sorry, you must feel pretty annoyed right now.Herman - MP for all!0 -
