@flannelsfashion Poor customer service and you have to pay for returns yourself as their returns portal is ‘experiencing issues’. Totally baffled how you can treat customers like this

[Barbara Strevens @otbarbs]

@flannelsfashion your customer service is rubbish! Totally dissatisfied! I cannot access your returns portal as you are ‘experiencing issues’ so I have to pay over and above what you charge to return it! You’ve lost mine and my family’s custom.

[Barbara Strevens @otbarbs]

Poorm customer service @flannelsfashion returns portal down, not allowed to return online orders to store. Now I need to send it but they need proof of postage and I have to pay for the return! Over and above what their £4.99 return is! You’ve lost this customer! Disappointed

'We go again'

Leeds Rhinos legend Kevin Sinfield told #BBCBreakfast about his sixth challenge to take on 7 ultramarathons in 7 days in December to raise funds and awareness for MND

@marksandspencer really disappointed that your Xmas return policy is 35 days! My step father died over Christmas and my father in law is in a hospice so returning so thing hasn’t been a priority and now your customer services will not allow a return even in these circumstances!

Earlier today the National Institute for Health & Care Excellence (NICE) announced that it has reconsidered its routing decision for Tofersen, an effective drug for SOD1 #MND.

Eleanor, who has MND and was the face of our #PrescribeLife campaign, has a message of thanks to you!

[Ammar Al-Chalabi @AmmarAlChalabi]

Such very sad news. RIP Rob Burrow. An extraordinary person who did so much to raise awareness and speed the search for a cure for MND.
