I bought 2 jumpers in the sale from M &S in East Croydon on 18/08/22. Tried them at home & found they very big, not the size as stated on the labels. As I was going to Kingston on 24/08/22 I took the jumpers with so that I could return them and get my money back or exchange for a different item. I spoke to an assistance who told me that M&S does not accept back yellow sticker sale items at all no matter what reason, I asked to speak to a manager he called Kate the manager who said that M&S does not accept return of sale items as stated on the receipt and that cashiers are trained to tell customers that sale items cannot be returned to M&S. I said I do not recall being told this by my cashier and that I did not see this as I did not see until I got the receipt I said you cannot know until I paid then I got the receipt! FURTHERMORE on the receipt it said & i quote "for refund please retain product barcode label/swing ticket"which I have kept on the returned items. Kate kept arguing with me and we were not getting anywhere so she called Michael - DSM of the store and he parroted the same as Kate the same thing. again Kate & Michael were very righteous in they attitude towards me and were quite dismissive of me. Michael said I should get in touch with M&S customer service which is in South Africa, he gave me the number and said I would have to pay for the call. I said that is ridiculous he suggested sent an email they may reply or not. I said unbelievable!! Today I rang the number he gave me: 03330148000, I asked the operator if he was in SA, he said NO I explained the situation and he said I will put you to the correct depart who would help me. I got through and the first thing I said are you in SA & she said YES and I asked is this called costing me YES she reply. I asked will she ring me back she said YES and said I will ring you back straightawayI gave her my number and that was hours ago!!. I am now an Ex customer of this hopeless company, who do not care for customers and make it very hard for us to complain as they don't want to know and don't care. Appalling behaviour by M&S. M & S IS THE ONLY COMPANY IN BRITAIN WHO DOES NOT ACCEPT RETURN OF SALE ITEMS. I WOULD DARE SOMEONE FROM M & S TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ME OVER THIS ISSUE.
