“Do not buy your smokeless coal from Aldi.£6-99 a bag,absolutely disgraceful,especially with what's happeng with the fuel bills.Home Bargains is a lot cheaper and better coal.”
“I have been accused of being a shoplifter on multiple occasions by the OVER AGED MIDDLE AGED so called Aldi security guard in their Crayford store. Firstly , I am not a thief and secondly my professional position would have been this Silly Cows Regional Manager. She is a RACIST .She is part of BLM ,whom are targeting people they perceive to be caucasian. Last night the till staff had to get in between this employee and I and tell her to back off, go stand 6 feet or more away . It seems that Aldi employ Low cast staff and those are jealous of socalled "Posh" customers and then make MALICIOUS AND LIBELLOUS ACCUSATIONS TOWARDS THOSE PERSONS.
I AM NOW DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO SUE ALDI ......”
“Purchased a Turkey and within 4 days it went on sale. Went to the store and ask for a price adjustment. We were told they do not do that, and I would have to do a return and then repurchase it. Took the Turkey back for a refund and wanted to repurchase at sale price, again we were told they could not do that. As a senior on a fixed income and having shopped at Aldi's for a long time I now realize they are not customer friendly. I will use Facebook to get this message out to other customers about the service received.”
“Ordered a laptop which when delivered the box was badly ripped and the original security tags were broken and replaced so following their instructions, I returned it immediately by Royal Mail. It was delivered to Aldi a few days later and according to their website I was supposed to get an email within 24 hours saying a refund was being processed. I never received one. Despite contacting them several times and sending proof of posting and proof of delivery, they have not responded. I am really worried as this was a Christmas present for my husband and it cost £530.”
“Bought a vehicle pet barrier in another state while visiting. I misplaced the receipt (and am still looking for it). The box was missing 2 essential pieces. I emailed them for possible solutions, and they will only send a form letter response to check the warranties and manual page? The manual doesn't give any info on how to get the replacement pieces, other than to say to look at the product card in the box. The same product card i told them that was also missing...... Great prices, good products, poor customer service.”
“Bought 3 Pressure washers from aldi on 8th oct, was told delivery would be on friday 21 oct, by XPD , waited in all pm as time slot was 1:30 to 3:30 , no one delivered check tracking later and see a picture of a telegraph pole about 100m up the road in a section of the road that you cannot park in saying could not deliver and "email carded " I had no email, waited in the following Monday all day for delivery , still nothing, phone Monday evening to cancel order as fed up with waiting around , received an email to confirm this , Tuesday 7 am get an email to say delivered successfully , no delivery was made , get a phone call at 10:50 am from aldi customer service to ask if i have the three items , I inform them I do not. , wait for my refund , them nothing , phone back a week later to be told they were delivered , despite me already confirming that they had not been. was told then I would have to wait for an investigation into the courier. they have my £240 I have no goods and they will not refund me. What a bunch of THEIVES I WILL NEVER BUY FROM ALDI AGAIN AND BASED ON THIS AND THE INCOMPETENCE OF THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE I WOULD STRONGLY ADVISE ANYONE HAVEING LARGE ITEMS DELIVERED BY XPD COURIERS TO JUST DONT DO IT YOU DO NOT GET YOUR ITEMS AND ALDI WILL NOT REFUND.”
“Bought boots online exclusive
Rerturned later to Aldi Sandhurst store as per the Aldi receipt instructions...
On arrival at the store queued for a cashier who had no idea how to process the return.
Called the duty manager (Martin) who also had no idea how to process the return. He went away to find out and then said he didnt know how to return the item so I would need to return via post / courier.
Frustrated I called Aldi online team customer services while still waiting in store (Aqeela.) She appeared well trained online and apologised profusely but said - you can't return exclusive offers via the store (despite the Aldi return instructions!)
After 35 minutes in store and her apologies, Aqeela our online call handler and her supervisor confirmed this has happened many times before and no "good will gesture" eg store refund could be raised as this was not their procedure despite the written return instructions...
Perhaps it is best to avoid the online side of Aldi as no training has been offered to their stores and their return instructions are factually incorrect.
I will return via the post office / courier - Such a shame as the concept could have worked with more planning and better execution.”
“I have been shopping at our local Aldi in Tomah, WI for over 15 years now. I'll make it short here...They beat the heck out of Festival or Walmart Supercemter for both prices and quality.
Whole chickens at Aldi, cheaper than the other two stores. And they run larger too. Up to 7-8 lbs at times, Now That's a BIG fryer. Great taste and all the cuts of chicken included.
Cheese is Very inexpensive and just as good as the store brands and like Crystal Farms and such. All cuts of meat ( pork, beef , Corned Beef ( Bee's Best at times), Fresh Salmon ! and on and on...) that I have bought over the years were great.
Save $$$, be smart, Shop there :)”
“I would give 0 stars if it was available. Aldi is selling old food! I bought ham slices there & they went bad in a day or two! I will never shop at aldis again. How cruel to sell bad food that will make people sick. Shame on aldis owners.”
“About to purchase fresh chicken thighs on the conveyor belt to discover the packaging had shrunk around the chicken, with a pungent smell!
Why was this put on the shelf for people to purchase!!! Well I guess it’s because the poor staff that are working there are so under pressure to put stock out/go to the till/ clean the floor/loos etc…last time I was shopping in Aldi a bunch of staff were all stood around discussing the fact that they haven’t got time to put the delivery out let alone sit on a till!! The words were very precise and I couldn’t blame them one bit!!
Also why do they have this annoying beeping system when you are desperately looking for your cash card!! I guess to hurry you up!
Maybe cheap but you so need to look after your overworked staff! Let alone your loyal customers!!”
“I bought Fremont wild caught shrimp taco mix... so very very good...there were only three packages when I saw them and I bought all three...S.so glad I did”
“Not what it used to be a few years back. Prices are often the same as other supermarkets now. Quality of meat has gone down hill alot.
Where have your review information gone!? That says it all - got alot to hide these days as quality has gone down substantially. Used to be a regular - definitely not anymore.”
“I don't know how they can call them selves customer services as they don't have a clue.
I rang 2 differant customer service s at aldi and was told the only way I can do anything is to drive 100 miles to speak to the shops manager REALLY!!! I am not letting this complaint drop,if that's what they are hoping ,not gonna happen ....Donna”
“Aldi is the best supermarket in the UK. It has the lowest prices but does not compromise on the range and quality of its products. I like its so-called copycat products too.
I recently read that Aldi is now the UK's fourth biggest supermarket, displacing Morrisons. I look forward to seeing it at the number one spot.”
“I was at the Aldi in Noosaville and Susie at cash register 4. Today 29/09 at 8:50. She was very rude to me and my partner. I was the last client before she closed the register and my partner was exchanging an item. While I was waiting for my partner Susie accepted another shopper despite she was closed. At the same time my partner arrived and I asked Susie to kindly let my partner for the item while the last shopper was finishing the transaction. However, Susie refused and walked away without even an apologie. I am very disappointed as I love shopping at Aldi and I find the majority of employees in Aldi pleasant and helpful. Thank you ivana”
“I went to Merthyr Tydfil store for a bottle of wine as we were in there was two people was pinching some bottle as they got to the till a young woman stopped them they started to kick off that’s all I could see was all the ladies off the tills were straight away backing her up it was so great to see this in your store well done lady’s 👏👏”
“I would give Aldi 0 if this would allow me. I have had nothing but stress from the minute I ordered a lazy Spa and accessories on the 29th August. I never received my pool only received accessories cancelled the order and had to wait weeks for a refund. Eventually they refunded £249 of my £321 i Asked twice for the accessories to be picked up I'm still sitting in my house waiting on them being picked up by yodel. ALDI WON'T LET ME RETURN THEM TO A STORE. I'm now going to have to pay interest on my credit card for goods that I did not receive and for accessories that are absolutely no use to me without the Lazy Spa. Aldis customer service is the worst customer service I have ever come across they have a script that they continually say and are not solution focused. ALDI YOU REALLY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOUR SERVICE. YOU TOOK MY MONEY AND HAVE MADE IT SO DIFFICULT TO RETURN MY MONEY. I HAVE SAT IN MY HOUSE FOR DAYS WAITING ON MY DELIVERY THEN WAITING ON YOU PICKING UP THE RETURNS BECAUSE YOU COULD NOT HONOUR THE ORDER OR DELIVERY. I will never shop in your shop again.”
