Marks and Spencer is beginning to take online orders again after it halted purchases through its website in April following a major cyber attack.<\/b><\/p>\n

The High Street chain said shoppers were now able to buy a selection of its fashion products for home delivery in England, Scotland and Wales.<\/p>\n

It said more fashion, beauty and homeware products would be available in the coming days, with click and collect and delivery services to Northern Ireland resuming “in the coming weeks”.<\/p>\n

The return of online shopping marks a key milestone for the retailer, which has been struggling to get services back to normal since the attack by hackers, which left some shelves empty and deliveries in limbo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

M&S was hit by a cyber attack took place over the Easter weekend in April, which initially affected its click-and-collect and contactless payments.<\/p>\n

A few days later, the company suspended online orders, and recently warned services would continue to be disrupted until July.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, John Lyttle, managing director of fashion, home and beauty at M&S, said a selection of the retailer’s “best selling” fashion ranges would now be available online.<\/p>\n

M&S has estimated that the cyber-attack will hit this year’s profits by around \u00a3300m – the equivalent to a third of its profit – and a sum that would only partly be covered by any insurance payout.<\/p>\n

Some personal customer data was stolen by hackers during the attack, which the retailer has said could have included telephone numbers, home addresses and dates of birth.<\/p>\n

The company has told customers that the data theft did not include useable payment or card details, or any account passwords.<\/p>\n
