Poor customer service

I am a new account holder. On receiving my Credit card I spoke to M+S requesting an additional card holder. After 20 days of waiting I used the chatbot which was hopeless and passed me to a handler. who started helping me and I was told this is a 10 day process...I raised I had been waiting for 20 days with no update. Then I was told as his shift was ending I would be passed to some one else. I then had to wait again, it was then taken on by another handler but after 55 mins on the chat I asked simply, has the application been accepted/had my card been issued and lost in post? I was told I had to phone security separately. Wasn't transferred and so after an hour I don't know where I stand re the card and possible security issue. Disappointing experience.

I have been with M&S for many years

I have been with M&S for many years, and use the credit card as much as possible, it’s a great advantage for me when the points earned are given as payments for me to use against my shopping.

Life-saver during a tough time

Life-saver during a tough time! Highly recommend.
​I cannot thank M&S Bank enough. I was offered an incredible balance transfer deal right when I needed it most, and it genuinely rescued me from a stressful financial situation.
​I compared their offer with all my other banks and credit cards, and M&S was by far the best and most competitive. The entire process was incredibly smooth, straightforward, and easier to use than any other provider I’ve dealt with. Outstanding service when it mattered most!

I have had my card since 1987 when it was M&S Money. I have always found it very useful and customer service very helpful. The Rewards function is great and worth the £10 a month subscription. I don't think I have ever paid interest as I always clear my balance on time and have never had charges. I use it for large purchases and as an emergency back-up. Definitely recommend. Use it properly and it is an asset.

I tried to log on to my credit card…

I tried to log on to my credit card account due to a problem with an online purchase, when I went onto the website (which I haven't logged onto for a few years), I was asked for my passcode which I have never received. I rang customer services, which took 20 minutes to answer, to check my purchases, nothing untoward had gone through so that was fine. The next day I thought I would check again just in case someone had tried to use my card information and rang customer services again at 08.03 another 20 minute wait. The outcome was that I have now cancelled my credit card and a new one is being sent. I still do not know if or when I will receive this pass code so that I can see my account online as I have had nothing in writing to say it has been sent to me. It is so frustrating and I feel that M&S are pushing me to use their app which I do not want to do. Whatever happened to customer service????

Hi Mrs Clements, We understand your frustration, thank you for your patience whilst waiting to get through. If you do still need help with the banking app please call in, you do not have to use it f you do not want to it would be a case of waiting for paper statements to be received. Thanks for the feedback. - Kim

Terrible customer service- not very M&S !

1) M&S credit CANNOTT be contacted by e mail, despite the addresses on the back of the bill.

2) They are NOT available by phone 24hours a day, despite what it says on the back of my bill.

Had to ring their expensive land line to speak to a a customer "service agent".

NOT GOOD ENOUGH and will be cancelling my credit card.

Erroneous Transactions appearing on my card statements…

Nearly every month now items appear on my card statement which I don't recognise. This month it was a transaction at a petrol station in St Albans. I am quite certain that I wasn't in St Albans on the date of the transaction. Every time these erroneous transactions appear, I have to go through the onerous process of contacting the card help desk. Each time my card is stopped and a new card is issued. Receiving a new card might take 7 working days which is a considerable nuisance. M&S bank don't seem to be in the slightest bit interested in fixing the problem.
