The Waitrose customer care line is 0800-188-881 and the customer service email address is customerserviceteam@waitrose.co.uk, both for shoppers in the United Kingdom. Have the order number or the till receipt, the delivery date and slot, and your myWaitrose card number if the issue is about an offer or a discount. For an online grocery order, the account section on waitrose.com shows the order and the substitutions that were made, which is the first thing customer care will ask you about. Follow any phone call with an email repeating what was agreed, because a written trail counts for more than a call when money is in dispute.

Discount from your myWaitrose card missing from the till receipt? Report it through our complaint process and we push it out to head office by email, social media and printed letters.

Report missing items and unwanted substitutions as soon as a Waitrose delivery lands, with the order number, the delivery note listing what was substituted, and photographs of anything spoiled, short dated or damaged next to its packaging. Consumer law in the United Kingdom entitles you to goods of satisfactory quality that match their description, so this is a refund matter rather than a favour. Ask for the money back to the card that paid rather than a credit on the account, and check the bank statement rather than the order page, because a credit and a refund look the same on screen and not at all the same in your bank. If a driver takes items back at the door, ask for that to be noted on the spot.

Missing items refunded as an account credit instead of money back on the card? File your complaint on our website and we help you write it clearly in minutes.

Check the order in your waitrose.com account first, because a slot moved or cancelled by the shop shows there and in the email trail, and that is the record a complaint rests on. Note the original slot, the replacement, when you were told and by which channel. If the groceries never arrive at all, ask on the same day and in writing for the order to be cancelled and refunded in full rather than credited. Where the failure cost you money, for example food bought elsewhere at short notice, set the amounts and the dates out plainly instead of leaving it implied, and keep any driver or store name you were given.

Take the item back to a Waitrose shop with the receipt or the order confirmation, or contact customer care with the order number if it came by delivery. A card refund is issued by the retailer and then processed by your bank, so the evidence that matters is the refund confirmation with its date and the statement line where the money should have landed. If nothing appears within a few working days of that confirmation, go back to customer care with both. For anything bought on a credit card costing more than one hundred pounds, section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act makes the card issuer jointly liable with the retailer, and a debit card payment can instead be raised with your bank as a chargeback inside the card scheme time limit.
