    The problem with marks & Spencer is they refuse to LISTEN to their customers' wants. So good deal 123 you can go back and report to your boss THAT

    p/s bad sleuthing mate

    quite right I read a report in the paper last year that M and S did surveys of ladies who buy there and hold their charge cards and they said - NO low cut tops, no very short skirts, and arms on dresses and no size 6 models everywhere showing off the clothes!! that's all for primark and peacocks surely? guess what next season nothing changed so M and S are dying on their feet.

    When I rarely now go into M and S all I see is a forest of size 6 models with legs thinner than my 12 year old and customers who average 40 and size 14!! Goodbye M and S!!! I now shop at Next!

    if size 12/14 ladies see all the clothes for them on size 6's they begin to assume the clothes are not made for them at all!!!

    come on wake up before the end!

    Still waiting for more reductions! Been keeping an eye on the bras. Signs says 60% off but price labels are still showing 50% discounts. Wonder if the extra 10% is taken off at the till and they're not bothering to label them?

    If I knew this was the final price I would probably buy now but I know in previous years I've done just that, only to find bras reduced to £3 and even £1 in the next couple of days.


    Yeah the underwear goes down again generally, I can remember buying loads of knickers at 50p & £1 a pair last year.

    Why buy M&S knickers from M&S? Much more likely to have success buying them elsewhere! Just found plenty for 99p a pair on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M-S-ladies-knickers-cotton-with-stretch-sizes-6-to-20-assorted-designs-low-p-p-/390741853453?pt=UK_Women_s_Lingerie&var=&hash=item5afa07850d

    I have got the whole cannot deliver to store message all day today so just rang up (via the say no to 0870 number thank god!) to do the same as you did but after being on the phone for 30 minutes getting the whole we will answer your call as soon as we can rubbish message I gave up! Sorry M&S you have just lost a sale! I will go elsewhere now!

    This is my problem today as well.

    Ive left a message on twitter, no response.

    I left a message on facebook which they didn't read, finally asked for my order number. I don't have an order number as I am trying to order and not getting anywhere.

    I've been ringing all day using the sayno number 0114 452 1317 and getting no response. Literally all day

    Its only a small order of 3 items and I just want it delivered to store or free delivery ...

    You could do what I've done (successfully) five times. Place order with home delivery and then message them as per post #77 and they will email you back within 24 hours to advise they have (or will, after dispatch), refund the charge.
