  • Oh no not the cakes again from our lovely Pollyskettle, do not mention the dreaded £800.00 order, as we will need to discuss exactly why cheesecake and tiramisu must never ever be in the same bowl touching :D

    On another note, my account says despatched today and by some strange coincidence I have lost my voice too :lipsrseal Oooh the karma... :p

    They have just replied and stated that 3 items are out of stock, but i had other different items as well, they said they have applied a £10 goodwill gesture to my account when i reorder lol


    Just fyi - I've had this before. I couldn't find the £10 anywhere on my account, but it mysteriously appeared once I went into the price screen of the order (where you enter the codes etc).

    DOn't forget - if you are going to order something, you can still get 10% off, or the 12.5% off Decemebr code which they suspended is supposed to be coming live again on the 12th.

    I can't get any free delivery codes to work, but you can always get delviered to store ff you like?

  • They won't deliver any alcohol items to store I assume due to licensing laws but I'd ask for free delivery along with your £10.

    Its so wierd how they are working out everyones orders, despite the area... how can an order of a huge amount (no names mentioned!! :rolleyes:) be given when someone whose order is not even a quater of that, gets cancelled!!
    Are M&S out of thier minds :eek:.
    Loobyloose, I checked my account just after you first posted with your problem and it had been changed to items soon to be despatched! Seems so wrong when they do this. :rolleyes:

    I just believe those with the stupidly large orders should of had thiers cut back, not necessarily cancelled, just reduced!

    I feel for you! :o

    I've just had a dispatch notice so there is hope for anyone whos expected delivery date was 8th Dec. I've ordered 6 items and they are coming in 3 lots, 2 via Royal Mail and the other by HOME DELIVERY NETWORK! Fingers crossed they are not broken when they get here.
  • I had 1 due today, my dd had an order due tomorrow and oh had one due for 10th......dd order is with Royal mail. Mine & oh are at depot from what I can work out...so can only guess they might be arriving tomorrow :confused:
    Never buys anything at full price unless completely forced to do so!!! :whistle:

    As for cheesecake and tiramisu in the same bowl :eek: they shouldn't even be in the same room :rolleyes::rotfl: (My eleven year old said they shouldn't even be in the same sentence, and she lovin' the cakes!)
