Appalling customer service from Sainsburys

New poster and I need to vent...

Placed an online order with Sainsburys due for delivery this morning between 9-10am. Received usual email confirmation re missing items at 7am. Then received at text at 08.12am to say delivery had been cancelled and to all them.

Called them immediately and after usual long hold, I was advised the following:

  • My account had been blocked by them.
  • No, they WOULD NOT give me the reason why.
  • I could appeal the blocking decision.
  • They would review my appeal and respond within 72 hours.
  • Yes, they had taken my money and would process a refund within 3-5 working days.

I tried getting a response via Facebook, but after providing all details they requested, I was told they could no longer respond to me via social media and to call a different number.

I called and was told exactly the same thing.

So, I have no shopping, they have over £300 of my money and I can't afford to replace the shopping.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I feel so angry that they can do this and I will now have to borrow money to buy shopping.

@Meh2020

Hello OP,

Yes I have experienced similar both in August and September this year. Fucked me off no end and took bloody ages to sort.

Are you in SW London by any chance?

No, I'm in a small market town in Shropshire. We only have a Co-op and a small Tesco here hence online shopping. It's 20 miles to the nearest large store. I so miss London for the variety of supermarkets on my doorstep!

@MahMahMahMahCorona

I have been a customer of Sainsbury's for many years, but no longer after this treatment.

Same, @Frankie2008 - it won't make a blind bit of difference to them in the grand scheme of things but I will never shop at Sainsbury's again.

I've only just noticed your username - brilliant!

I absolutely detest bad customer service but Sainsbury's have blown my mind.

I cannot believe some of the experiences people on here have had.

Oooh interesting...

I've just received an email today offering me £8 off order over £75 to shop with them again!

1 not bloody likely!

2 £8 is PATHETIC!

Sainsburys you're going to have to do MUCH better than this!

I reckon it’s the cigarettes, they think you’re buying them to sell out elsewhere.

@Graphista - a whole eight pounds, if you spend over £75?

£8? Ridiculous.
