“I bought a amaryllis plant for a Christmas present and we have had no flowers on it only leaves so it was a let down I bought it about 2week before Christmas”

“The flowers which arrived today were very poor and half dead. As a special birthday gift I’m sure the senders would be extremely upset to know this, especially knowing the prices charged. Very disappointed but would not like them to know as it would be very upsetting after they went to all the trouble of organising the delivery etc.”

“My friend ordered a delivery of flowers as a surprise for myself. On opening the box two of the five stems were positively dead (Amayllis flowers). I had to tell her as they were obviously quite expensive. She immediately rang customer service and spoke with a lovely lady who arranged for new but different flowers to be delivered on Xmas eve. Also, champagne, a lovely candle and some Percy pig sweets. They are stunning!! I am also being sent more flowers on the 27th apparently which is an exceptional recovery service!! Well done and thank you so much M&S, you have made myself and my friend very happy!!”

“Christmas flowers arrived today 23rd Dec. Am really disappointed and sorry that my brother paid for what is in fact really poor quality. Out of five roses one was already beyond help and the other four won't last a day. As well as that two stems of thistles which are also on their last legs, two carnations and some other weird shrub and two strange miniature pine cones on sticks. I'm certain this is not what was expected when purchase”

“Shameful customer service, both items not fit for purposeMagic jeans Cody me £45, when collected legs of jeans covered in dust looked like they’d been dragged along the floorJumper flawed in 3 places No staff to help on shop floor, only 3 cashiers who were mega busy, was forced to refund & re-order. Will be taking my custom elsewhere. Worst customer service elsewhere. Clearly No checking on ordered goods. Total disregard of Customer. After spending &75 on jeans & jumper. Worst customer service ever at Brentwood M & S”

“What shocking reviews I would never in a million years thought that head office would allow one of the general managers to ban shoppers for rewarding there staff what a way to destroy the company’s once fantastic reputation very sad indeed like her behaviour well done Thomas”

“A friend sent the white plants in a basket arrangement £40 The rose orange in colour was in poor condition on arrival and did not survive. 3 years ago I received a similar basket arrangement and most of it is thriving now.Very disappointed”

“Can't comment as yet on the state of the flowers as they never arrived. But I will NEVER EVER order from Marks again as you can't rely on them at all. My sisters 80th was today and the tracking information for Yodel say they're still at depot and it's now after 10pm. I phoned Marks after I'd placed the order a week ago to check they would arrive on her birthday and I was told they would. If I'd known they use Yodel for their deliveries I would have gone elsewhere. As it's freezing outside and Yodel's depots aren't heated I would imagine if, or when they arrive they will be in a dreadful state and I'm unable to ring my sister now to apologise as she'll be in bed. She will think that I haven't bothered to send her anything for her special birthday and she will ,I know be really upset. Marks used to be such a reliable firm to deal with so why are they no longer honouring their commitments? I've just read the other reviews which all paint a similar very sad picture of similar scenarios to the one above so I guess all I can say to future potential buyers is ' don't order flowers from Marks unless you don't care when or if they'll arrive or what state they'll be in if or when they do.”

“Present for my elderly mother after surgery as she is stuck at home and feeling lonely and a not sad. Despite ordering in good time and choosing designated day for delivery M&S flowers did not deliver, did not bother contacting me to say on the so-called delivery day to say they had stock issue. Pathetic. Useless. Disappointed they let my mum down as she waited all day for her ‘surprise’. Needless to say I will NEVER buy off these cowboys again. Only recommendation I can give is to buy from elsewhere.”

“75th birthday present for my wife, £40 bouquet, which was almost dead on arrival, some flowers must have been out of water for more than a week, others were all wilted, petals were brown, a couple of roses had even fallen off, an absolute disgrace, I received a refund and a £20 gift card, but I will never buy flowers from this store again. Shame on Marks and Spencer.”

“I was compelled to write this review because I am truly impressed by the quality of the Montserra plant I received. More than what I expected. Larger and abundant with big and baby leaves. In such a good health too. Arrived as expected through delivery. Very happy with my purchase. Will buy again!”

“i have to say i have read most reviews about this company but none as shocking and disturbing as the Torquays so called flagship store if you can Ban a loyal customer for rewarding your staff for going the extra mile to help a customer then there is something seriously wrong with this companies policy its clear MRS C. Thomas the general manager should of sacked the staff and managers that took this money but its clear it was easier for her to Ban the customer and i believe even the commercial manager Andrew Harris took £100 from this customer and then told the customer he was being Banned from there store for giving mangers money which was against there policy how Disgusting for head office to allow managers to perform in this manner if the managers and staff had said we would be sacked for taking this money i am sure the customer would have not even offered it to them or would of wanted to put them or himself in that position i wouldn't give them my custom after reading there reviews well done Nikki all yr doing i believe. To the customer keep yr money in yr pocket and learn from yr mistake”

“Ordered a Blush Rose Abundance and Swiss chocolate package for my elderly mothers birthday on 19 September. It didn't arrive. On the tracking note it said non delivery because of damage. Spoke to customer service and replacement order arranged and was delivered 20 September (2 days after her birthday). NO CHOCOLATES. Spoke to customer services again and apparently they can't send just chocolates so they will arrange a refund. My poor 89 year old mother didn't get flowers on her actual birthday and now isn't getting chocolates? Really disappointed.”

“Absolute disgrace. Ordered flowers 2 days early which were guaranteed to be delivered on my mum's 89th birthday. Chased the order and was told there had been a mistake and they would be delivered the next day - two hours and three departments later, there was no resolution. They offered a bigger bouquet and a box of chocolates to be sent the next day but as I pointed out, it was absolutely a waste of time as it was her birthday today not tomorrow - don't waste two hours of your time like me chasing and trying to resolve their mess, go to Waitrose!”

“One star because they arrived! Received today a delivery of flowers to replace flowers received last week - same bouquet same state, wilting and flowers falling off stems. They were sent by my nieces and nephew following the death of my husband. M&S you should be ashamed these flowers are sent out under your name, where is your product inspection/control?”
