M&S working 'day and night' to fight cyber attack

MARKS & Spencer is “working day and night” to manage the impact of a damaging cyber attack, the retailer's boss has said.

- 

Stuart Machin, chief executive of the high street giant, said he is “really sorry” customers have been affected by the fallout from the attack.

The retailer is currently unable to process any online orders after shutting down parts of its online systems to deal with a “cyber incident”.

M&S first reported the issue over the Easter weekend but has seen its operations impacted for more than a week.

Initially, the company saw contactless payments and click and collect orders affected.
