Chrome doesn't really like their site anyway:

Your connection to www.marksandspencer.com is encrypted using an obsolete cipher suite. Further, this page includes other resources which are not secure. These resources can be viewed by others while in transit, and can be modified by an attacker to change the look of the page.

The connection uses TLS 1.2.

The connection is encrypted using AES_128_CBC, with HMAC-SHA1 for message authentication and RSA as the key exchange mechanism.

As for me O2 can whistle if they expect me to complete my iPhone contract. I'm off to give my couple of hundred quid a month to another network.
