“Don't even deserve a 0 star. Items were not delivered to me but returned back without me requesting. Matalan has only sent email confirming refund for some of the items but the rest are missing. Contacted Hermes & was told that parcel has been sent back to the store. I have been sending emails continously with no response and calling but customer service is not available through the phone. This is unacceptable. At least respond back providing reasons as to why this is happening instead of responding back how due to COVID-19, it will take longer. Everyone is going through it and they do find the time even a minute to respond to customers instead of ignoring. Absolutely useless. DON'T WASTE TIME ON MATALAN.”

“I lost my money and time on the phone! Please don't return any item by post, if you did a purchase in store you can’t send them back by post (they don’t say anything like this on the website), you never will get your money back, after 2 emails and 3 phones calls, still can’t get a refund and they don’t know where’re the items even if I show them the packages was delivered on the 11 of June, the customer service is really bad, avoid this shop.”

“If I could give zero stars I would!! I ordered five tops on 31st May,received them on 9th June kept one returned the other four on 1th June got proof of posting. Have still not received my refund of £40-50!! Sent two emails got automatic response, but no replyto either email.Tried phoning, got a recorded message then got cut off!! Your customer service is non exsistent, you take peoples money and go into hiding!! I will be taking this further if I don't get a response from you in the next 24 hours.”

“I have sent items back on June 5th but had no response from matalan. I emailed and got an automated message, waited still nothing. Sent another message and they replied "things are taking longer because of covid" 14 days is what it's supposed to take for a refund! You received items on 11th June and it's now 9th July, still NO refund of £36. I've been into store twice! I feel robbed of my money. You are not even taking phone calls now. I will go to trading standards next as it's not on 😠”

“Waited one month for order to be processed. Now had e-mail saying they are out of stock of all of the items. No wonder really, if it's taken them this long to even process it. Will not use this store again.”

“Sent a faulty item back on 3rd June, it’s now 29th June and despite 5 unanswered emails STILL no refund !! Absolutely appalling customer service, I will NEVER use Matalan again. They do not care at all about their customers and should learn from John Lewis whose customer service is excellent.”

“Made an order in the evening on line, for two pair of track suit bottoms, realised after ordering I had entered wrong size, sent an e mail to customer services next morning asking if they could amend my order size from small to medium (have yet to receive a reply). Decided to telephone their customer service after a 25 minute wait on the telephone finally got through, ask if I could amend my order, was told once ordered they can’t make changes even though my order has not been dispatched yet. What was so difficult about this request. Get you act together Matalan”

“Awful experience with customer service a couple of times ! Sent me the wrong colour suitcase... website says they will refund postage if incorrect dispatch. Customer Service told me to keep the suitcase for 2 MONTHS until the stores reopen!!!? What?! So your return policy on the website is lying then? Terrible customer service... kept putting me on hold and repeating over and over I’ve to keep the suitcase for 2 MONTHS UNTIL and then return to the shop”

“Customer service non existent , ordered some jeans online supposed to be slim fit but looked like a pair of flares. Phoned someone in the office to see if the 14 day return still applies as obviously the shops are closed and couldn't return there , so had to take to post office to send back in tome for a refund at a cost to me of £9.00 . I phoned customer service to see if i would be refunded fo postage as its not my fault I couldn't take back to shop to be told they don't regund postage if the iyems aren't damaged or wrongly sent . Certainly will notbe using this shop again and will warn other freinds and family not to either”

“Unprofessional with no customer service or care. After endless trying to get sense from those clearly lacking some, I finally was advised someone would be contacting me. However sadly yet again they’d misunderstood what was required. So with that I went back to them. I commented that someone had remarked that if they didn’t respond they’d in fact go to the store and damage stock items. I advised that I wouldn’t myself do something like that. Now from that I’ve been told that as I’ve implied or made a threat as far as Matalan are concerned the previous horrific service by Matalan is no longer a matter they’ll look into. You couldn’t make this rubbish up. Just a dinosaur in the retail world, and as such I look forward to their extinction.”
