M&S – Customer Review

This Christmas I ordered a floral gift to be delivered to my favourite Auntie via the Marks & Spencer website. There was an option to specify the day of delivery which I took advantage of.

Auntie telephoned on the day to say thank you.

Then I get an email from M&S asking for a Customer Review, so I provide one as follows:
“It does what it says on the tin.
It was what I ordered.
It arrived on time.
What more can I ask.”

Several days later I receive another email from M&S saying that my review has been rejected as it does not meet their terms and conditions.

WTF?

If you don’t want honesty then don’t fucking ask.

Happy Christmas?

So, what do we make of this?

"How can we remain silent while Christians are being persecuted? A new evil is sweeping the Middle East and the Foreign Office is failing to confront it."

Or this?

"UNESCO says won't fund Palestinian magazine praising Hitler"

It is the season of goodwill, but I'm not exactly feeling seasonal right now.
