Policies, terms & conditions

    • In addition to our 35 day goodwill policy, you also have certain statutory rights in relation to the products you purchase.

    • If you are contracting with us as a consumer online or by phone, you have the right to cancel your contract at any time up to 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the products you ordered.

      Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (the “Regulations”), if you are contracting with us as a consumer online or by phone, you have the right to cancel your contract at any time up to 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the goods or services you ordered. For example, if you receive your order on a Thursday, you have 14 days from Friday to notify us of your cancellation.

      If you have made a purchase through our Website or over the telephone and have paid for delivery but wish to return the full order by post or to a store you are entitled to a refund on the outbound delivery charge originally paid within 14 days of receipt of the order. Please note that the delivery charge refund will be the equivalent value of standard delivery.

      This statutory right is separate from our goodwill policy

    • The Regulations do not apply to flowers and plants, made to measure curtains and blinds, chilled hampers, items that contain fresh or perishable food or to any items with a hygiene seal where the hygiene seal has been removed, broken or tampered with. In addition, they do not apply to goods or services purchased in store.

    • To cancel your order, you must let us know in writing, which you can do by filling in the order summary when you return your order. Refunds for orders cancelled under the Regulations will be processed in accordance with your statutory rights.

      You must take good care of the items while they are in your possession and they must be returned to us or collection arrangements must be made as soon as possible at your cost (currently a charge of £50 for furniture (except T84 items). Please see the order summary that comes with your order for more details.

      This is not intended to be a full statement of your rights under the Regulations. Full details of your rights are available from a Citizen’s Advice Bureau or a Local Authority Trading Standards Office.

      This policy does not affect your statutory rights under the Regulations or other legislation. Full details of how to exercise your rights are set out in the order confirmation email.

      Statutory Rights in relation to Faulty Products

      The statutory rights in relation to faulty products apply to in store purchases, as well as online and telephone orders. For online and telephone orders, the timelines below will start from the date of delivery. For in store orders, the timelines below will start from the date of purchase.

      Your statutory rights are as follows:

      • Within 30 days of delivery/purchase of the product, you may exercise the right to a refund if the product purchased is not of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose or as described.
      • After the 30 day period, but within six months of delivery/purchase and where the product is faulty, you are entitled to a repair or replacement. Where repair or replacement is not possible, or the repair or replacement does not resolve the fault, you are entitled to a refund.
      • After six months of delivery/purchase, similar rights exist, but only if you can prove that the fault was present at the point of delivery/purchase. In addition, if repair or replacement does not resolve the fault, we may make a deduction from any refund for fair use.

    Our “goodwill” refund or exchange policy is offered on clothing and homeware when goods are returned in a resalable condition with a valid receipt within 35 days of purchase, excluding Sparks sale preview and main sale items. Our goodwill policy applies where there is no statutory right to a refund or exchange under the Consumer Rights Act or otherwise.

This is not intended to be a full statement of all your legal rights under the CRD or other relevant consumer legislation. If you only return part of your order we will not refund any applicable delivery charge paid. Refund Payments: When you return goods, the credit adjustment will be made to the credit card, debit card, store card account, gift card or e-gift card used as payment for the original order or in certain circumstances you may be refunded by cheque. If you are returning your items in accordance with the CRD we will refund you within 14 days of receipt of the items to the specified returns address. Exchange: If you bought your item online, we are unable to exchange your item via post. Take the item to any UK Marks & Spencer store (excluding Outlet stores, Simply Food stores, railway stations and Foodhall stores).

    Please see our Privacy and Cookie Policy for more information on how your personal information will be used.

    You confirm that all information and details provided by you to us (including on registration) are true, accurate and up to date in all respects and at all times. You can update or correct your details at any time by going to Your Account.

It is your responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of your password and account information. M&S shall not be liable to any person for any loss or damage which may arise as a result of any failure by you to protect your password or account. Should you become aware of or suspect any unauthorised use of your password or account, please contact us. If M&S is suspicious of any fraudulent activity coming from your account, it can reserve the right to refuse you access to your account and can delete the account.

    When you order through the Website via our guest checkout you will still need to provide us with certain compulsory personal information in order for us to process your order. We will not store the details that you provide via guest checkout (save for processing your order, or if you have opted in to receive marketing from us). However, you can choose to register an account with us after submitting your order. Please see our Privacy Policy to see how your personal information will be used and stored. 

    ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR ORDER

    Please note that completion of the online checkout process does not constitute our acceptance of your offer to purchase products or services from us. We will notify you by email as soon as possible to acknowledge that we have received and are processing your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we take payment from you and despatch the product(s) or on commencement of the services that you ordered from us. Prior to despatch of the product(s), M&S has the right to decline an order for any reason, including legal and regulatory reasons. 

    The duration of our contract with you will start from when you receive the order despatch email and last until the last day of your right to return the products.

    In relation to orders for flowers, plants and fruit bags amendments and cancellations can be accepted until your order is prepared for despatch. Amendments can be made online through “Your Account” or by calling us on 0333 014 8000.

    If we cannot supply you with the product or service you ordered, we will not process your order, inform you of this in writing (including email) and, if you have already paid for the product or service, refund you in full as soon as reasonably possible.

    If the fulfilment of an order (or any aspect of it) would be illegal or unlawful, including by reason of breach of export controls or sanctions rules, M&S has the right to stop or cease to fulfil the order at any time, including after despatch of products and/or notification to you that the order has been received and is being processed.  You acknowledge that M&S shall incur no liability in such circumstances.

     

    PAYMENT

    During the checkout process, you will be asked to enter your payment details. Where you are using either credit or debit card, by completing your payment details you confirm that the credit or debit card being used is yours. All fields indicated as compulsory must be completed. Please note that we may collect and store your information, using an encrypted secure payment mechanism and will only use your information in accordance with our Privacy and Cookie Policy. Please be advised that where you select either Clearpay or PayPal as a payment method, we will pass certain information to the relevant party (name, address, delivery address, email address, and phone number) so that they can process your application for (in the case of Clearpay) and provide the service. Once this information has been passed to the relevant party, M&S shall remain a data controller and that party shall also be a data controller in relation to that data. See the terms and conditions of Clearpay, PayPal, Interest-free Credit and M&S including Privacy Policy of Clearpay, PayPal, Interest-free Credit and M&S, for full details.

    All card payments are subject to authorisation by your card issuer. We take full payment immediately for all orders except items paid for by Clearpay and PayPal ‘Pay In 3’, in which case we take a single instalment upfront. For Clearpay, 25% of the total value shall be payable via Clearpay immediately and the balance paid in three further equal instalments (please find full details on Clearpay here) and PayPal ‘Pay In 3’ payments will be taken in three equal instalments, with the first instalment payable via PayPal immediately (please find full details on PayPal ‘Pay In 3’ here). For Christmas Food to Order, we take a deposit of 40 pounds or euros (depending on your location) at the time of ordering and the outstanding balance is due when you collect your order.

    All products ordered will remain the property of M&S until we have delivered to the address specified by you or they have been collected in store. If your payment (whether full amount or the first or subsequent instalments in the case of items purchased by Clearpay or PayPal ‘Pay In 3’) is not received and you have already received the products you ordered from us, you must pay for (in full) or return those products to us in accordance with our reasonable return instructions and in the same condition that you received them at your own expense. If you do not do this within 30 days of your order being cancelled by M&S, we may collect or arrange for collection of the products at your expense. We reserve the right to charge you for any and all damage to (or other adverse interference with) any products that are the subject of an unpaid order.

    For orders paid for using interest-free credit, we will share personal information (your name, phone number, email address and delivery address) with Creation so that they can process your application and, if approved, provide you with credit.

    Once this information has been passed to Creation, M&S shall remain a data controller and Creation will also be a data controller in relation to the data. See their terms and conditions, including data protection notice for full details.

    YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL

    If you are contracting with us as a consumer online or by phone, you have the right to cancel (under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (the "Regulations")), all or part of your contract at any time up to 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the goods or services you ordered. This right to cancel does not apply to goods or services purchased in store. This statutory right is separate from our goodwill policy.

    Any paid delivery charge will be included in your refund once we have received all (not part) of your order to the specified address below. Please note that the delivery charge refund will be to the value of standard delivery.

    If you wish to cancel (or are considering cancelling) a product you have ordered from us, please be aware that statutory rights of cancellation under the Regulations do not apply to certain products and services (for example, made to measure orders, flowers, plants, fruit bags, lingerie (for hygiene reasons), food, gifts and personalised items) or any products with a hygiene seal where the seal is broken.

    Exercising your right to cancel

    To exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us of your decision to cancel the contract in writing within 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the goods or services you ordered, which you can do by filling in the parcel summary when you return your order.

    You must take reasonable care of the goods while in your possession. You shall send back any goods or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of from the contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back any goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning any goods to us. In the case of wine and furniture, collection arrangements must be made promptly at your cost (currently a charge of £50 for furniture (except next day delivery (T84) furniture), see individual product pages for details).

    Products should be returned in or with their original packaging. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the unnecessary handling of the goods in excess of what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

    You may return the goods to an M&S store in the UK (including Simply Food and Outlet stores but excluding Franchise stores (BP, Moto, airports, hospitals and train stations)) or the following Specified Returns Address:

    WA1 4WA

    If you return the products by post or to a Simply Food or Outlet store, we will return your parcel to our delivery warehouse. We will process your refund within 14 days of receipt of the products to the delivery warehouse. If you return your products to an M&S store, please allow 3-5 business days for your refund to be processed. 

    For orders paid for by Clearpay or PayPal including ‘Pay In 3’ instalments, once your product(s) have been received by M&S and your order has been cancelled, your refund will be processed by Clearpay or PayPal (as relevant), who will refund the amount you have already paid and cancel any remaining instalments.

    Where we deliver products to a third party in accordance with your order, you will only be able to exercise this cancellation right if you can return the goods to us (or arrange for us to collect them).

    This is not intended to be a full statement of all of your rights under the Regulations. Full details of your rights under the Regulations are available in the UK from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or your Local Authority’s Trading Standards Office.

    • In order to be eligible for Sparks, you must be a UK resident for the entire period for which you are a Sparks customer and unless you are an M&S employee, you must be aged 18 years or over. No corporate or business use or participation. Colleagues may be excluded from any aspect of the reward scheme at any time at our discretion. See individual Benefit terms and conditions for more information and qualification. Eligibility will be revoked and we may withhold Benefits if your account is terminated.

    • Your account is not transferable once activated. Activate and register your card at marksandspencer.com/sparks with your card number and email address to receive your Benefits. You will need to provide a valid mobile or landline number and postal address. Without a valid email address, you will not receive all the regular Benefits associated with Sparks. It is your responsibility to ensure that all your personal details are kept up to date and M&S will not be responsible for any lost, delayed or undeliverable communications if you do not do so.

    • As a Sparks customer you will have access to a variety of Benefits, you just need to use your Sparks card when you shop either online or in store (excluding BP Connect and Channel Island stores). Each Benefit is free to participate in. You will receive offers and promotions personalised to you. By using your card, you will also be eligible to receive a variety of Benefits such as: (i) receive the value of your shopping for free at the checkout for all transactions which do not include: a) alcohol in Scotland and Wales; b) gift cards; or c) Pay with Me* ("Qualifying Transactions"); (ii) the chance to get thousands worth of shopping for free in M&S e-gift cards; and (iii) product giveaways (such as product gifts from our in-store bakery and apothecary). We will also reward our most loyal customers with "little treats" as a thank you. Recipients of these Benefits are selected at random from all eligible Sparks customers. Inclusions and exclusions will apply and are subject to change. Details of the current Benefits can be found here and this will be updated from time to time.

      *Pay With Me is a convenient and optional way to pay for your shop in selected participating stores where an M&S colleague can process the payment for your shop on a handheld device away from a fixed till point.

      Benefits may change from time to time, they are subject to availability and if necessary may be substituted by M&S. Product giveaways are redeemable in store only and may be time limited. We reserve the right to withhold Benefits due to eligibility. Discount card holders shall not be entitled to receive the e-gift card Benefit. Benefits are non-exchangeable, non-transferable and no cash alternative is offered. M&S reserves the right at any time in its sole discretion to cancel, void, suspend, modify or supersede any of the Benefits at any time if it believes that the draw to select a Benefit recipient is not capable, or is likely not to be capable, of being conducted fairly or as specified within these terms and conditions due to events beyond its control (including, without limitation, a virus, a computer bug, or other technical issue or unauthorised human intervention or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of M&S that could corrupt or affect the administration, security, impartiality or normal course of the draw). Benefits are awarded randomly by an algorithm to a prescribed average and therefore the frequency with which each Benefit is awarded may vary temporarily from the value stated, or we may change the frequency from time to time where that change is to your benefit. For the avoidance of doubt, the promoter of the Benefits is M&S, of Waterside House, 35 North Wharf Road, London, W2 1NW.

      M&S shall have no liability for any delay and/or failure to perform any obligation to the intended recipient of any Benefit or other entrants, including those that is caused by: (a) technical problems of any kind which may limit or prevent any person’s participation in any draw for a Benefit or the awarding of any Benefit; (b) any loss or damage arising from or in connection with the allocation of a Benefit; (c) any act or omission of any third party; or (d) any other events beyond M&S’ control that may cause the allocation or awarding of the Benefits to be disrupted or corrupted. Nothing in these terms and conditions shall limit in any way M&S’ liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence.

      If you select Sparks-supported charity or good cause at registration, M&S will donate 1p to your chosen cause for each transaction you make with us. 1p per such transaction is donated by Marks and Spencer plc to The Charities Aid Foundation (registered charity number 268369) which will, in its discretion pass on your donation to your chosen cause. You may change your chosen cause at any time.

    • You can terminate your account online at marksandspencer.com within your account by giving us notice. On termination any and all benefits accrued will be lost. We can terminate your account immediately if at any time, you are, or we reasonably suspect you may be, acting fraudulently, criminally or are otherwise in breach of these terms. If your account has been inactive for 12 months we will review it and, in our discretion, may choose to suspend your account. Please note that, if your Sparks account is terminated, any Sparks Pay account that you have entered into with Marks & Spencer Financial Services plc ("Sparks Pay"), will also be terminated.

    • We can make changes to the eligibility requirements, the Benefits, and the terms of the reward scheme at any time if we believe, in our reasonable discretion, that the change is to your benefit, or is required for the continuing administration of the reward scheme. Material changes will be communicated to you via the M&S app, SMS, email or postal communication where we have been provided with contact details by you. In the event that you are no longer eligible for the reward scheme as a result of changes made to the eligibility requirements, your account will be terminated following two months' notice of the changes. The preceding sentence will only apply where you become ineligible for the reward scheme in its entirety due to changes made to the eligibility requirements.

      We reserve the right to withdraw or cancel the reward scheme at any time giving customers two months' notice of termination in writing (via email or postal communications). Termination or withdrawal of the reward scheme, as well as changes to the eligibility requirements that mean you are no longer eligible for the reward scheme, will also result in withdrawal or cancellation of any linked Sparks Pay. These terms are correct as of April 2022, and may be updated from time to time by M&S. Current terms are available at marksandspencer.com.

    • If you have any questions about the reward scheme, then please visit our website at https://www.marksandspencer.com/c/help-and-support/contact

    • Your personal information obtained by us in connection with the reward scheme will be used in accordance with all applicable data protection legislation and our Privacy Policy (available here ). In particular, it will be used to administer the reward scheme, provide you with Benefits and to keep you updated by post, email and text messaging. By joining the reward scheme, you agree to receive post, email and SMS updates from us about the reward scheme and your Benefits. You can opt out of any marketing communications that we may send you by updating your preferences online at marksandspencer.com.

      Scotland (where it will be dealt with by the courts of Scotland); or
