Ordered 2 x headnoards ......only one was deluvered after having to change delivery date. Product was absolute rubbish. Could have made it better myself & that is no exaggeration! After a lot if stress & chasing up I finally got a full refund. Will never use matalan direct again. BUYER BEWARE!

I ordered two items via matalan direct and opted for the delivery option that allowed me to select a day which costed a little more than standard delivery, I received a call from matalans delivery service to tell me they were delivering on tuesday but I asked if I could choose the day that is most suitable for me as I had paid that option - to be told that they only deliver to my area on Tuesdays. I contacted matalan and they did refund me the difference but I am confused to why this option is even available? The sink I had ordered was just suitable so I contacted matalan to sort how to return the item to be told I would be best off reselling the item myself on an auction site because to return the item would cost me £20!!! which is not stated on the returns information and If I would have known this I would not of ordered with matalan. I couldn't believe that such a reputable company like matalan were telling me to resale the item!? rather than request a refund. As a first time buyer I found the items on site to be a good price and great range but I will not be shopping with matalan direct again and am stuck with a sink that is not suitable!

Bought a kitchen tap, found online for a third of the retail price, quick delivery by dpd who actually advise even which driver is delivering your parcel. All round brilliant service. I don't have the ability or patience to shop in stores so to find this was a real bonus for me. Thank you :)

My only issue was customer service were slow to let us know when delivery was arriving. Only after I got in touch myself did they tell me when it was due , then it was short notice, the next day in fact

Easy to order but very disappointed in delivery service. When you pay £16.99 for delivery on an agreed pre arranged day would expect more than "we only have a van in your area on Mondays". Had to delay delivery until I could arrange time off from work. Now I know this I am unlikely to order anything big that cannot be collected in store. The delivery guys were very helpful and took the box upstairs for me.

I ordered a number of items amounting to £100 - 3 weeks ago - with next day delivery. The order never arrived. I complained after about a week of waiting and was told they would 'investigate' what happened. After a further week of no contact, I got in touch with them again and they said they were waiting for a response from the courier to help with their 'investigation'. At this point - they gave me a refund for the delivery fee of £5 but not the purchase amount of c£100. So in essence, they accept that the delivery was faulty and refunded its fee but have not provided a refund for the products themselves (which they clearly now know never arrived!). We're now in week 3 and I complained some more .. they told me they have now 'ESCALATED TO A PHONE CALL' with the courier - which is frankly just offensive! I am APPALLED at the utter disregard MATALAN has for their customers and have essentially been ROBBED. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS TERRIBLE COMPANY!! You will regret it.

Having phone call before arriving is very useful giving u time 2 be prepared (pets etc out of way).Only downside was delivery person not giving information etc having 2 ask about Un packing, if damaged does all packing need 2 b returned 2. Apart from that all went smoothly as had 3 pieces of furniture 2 b delivered.

I ordered 2 bedside cabinets from Matalan Direct, when they arrived one of them was very damaged and the drawers wouldn't close. It is a very sturdy product so must have been dropped quite heavily to be damaged this badly. Customer Services were very helpful and arranged for a replacement product to be sent and told us to dispose of the damaged unit. Very happy with the product, delivery times could be a bit quicker though. Would definitely use again.

the delivery was excellent because I had to change the date and all went well. Am very pleased with the light I purchased and easy to put together the only thing didn't like was the the item was reduced a week later by 20% if I'd only waited!!.
