“Ah yes, the old cute name trick for whiskey by Aldi. I do not drink it but believe every word you wrote. This company made their highest profit this year for the xmas period. Shamefully they made it on alcohol products only, spirits etc. Hmmm. Masses of disappointed people then. I think we all read the accounts in the press regarding their poultry calamities for the festive season!! Says a lot eh. If they cannot get it right for the seasonal festivities, when can they.”
“Glen Marnoch Limited release Islay single malt scotch whiskey at £17.49 a 70cl bottle to a whiskey has to be very appealing, therefore no surprise I didn’t think twice about buying one to entertain a few family visitors who themselves enjoy a good single malt. My own experience and those who tasted it could not have been more disappointing and disastrous! It tasted and smelled like raw methylated spirit used for cleaning paint brushes and that’s no exaggeration whatsoever! To describe it on the label as “A traditional peat smoked Islay whisky featuring a slight sea air, with rich nuttiness, gentle sweetness and lingering smokey-sweet malty notes” is plain rubbish and completely nonsensical! I have never tasted such a horrible “single malt whiskey from Islay! In fact, malt whiskey produced in Islay is my favourite!”
“Poor parkingsharp? Sigh. Well they would flock all round your wife wouldn't they. Trying to save their skins. You do not state what sort of object/item it was. Hope she is ok. If it was something sharp that was not meant to be then you should report them to trading standards and also take them to court. Truly shocking episode. Hope your wife is ok now.”
“Utterly disgracefull. Aldi treat all elderly people the same way mostly, especially the Dover store, or they did. The problem as I see it is that Aldi do not ever visit this site, hence the continuing issue re the elderly and less able. Mostly they likely visit TrustPilot, but that company is riddled with fake reviews. At least Aldi are creeping ever nearer to under 50% favourable reviews on here. You should contact Aldi on their website and complain about this store and what happened. Do not hold your breath for a reply though.”
“I walked into àldi cardinals today at about 5.30pm when an assistant manager told an eighty + 4 ft lady to stànd on a basket trolley to reach a 6ft high stack of baskets .Sean”
“Your best toilet paper has been discontinued. Softest 2ply unembossed white toilet tissue was the best available anywhere. The embossed versions are no match and cause soreness.”
“Aldi had their highest profits this Christmas. Sadly, this was achieved through the sale of alcohol. Not good at all, so it means that in fact their sale of food items was actually down. The trend continues then with people realising that their cheap food items simply do not mean quality.”
“What's happened to your baked beans?
Same tin but definitely not the same beans and sauce.
The beans are bullet like and the tomato sauce is like water.”
“Very good idea too. Lots of others on here with same complaint. Christmas time too. So many bad reviews on here it makes you wonder how their overall score is 51%.”
“Bought a large chicken on the 31st dec with a use by date of 5th Jan 2020, I was today the 2nd Jan going to have it for our tea only to open the wrapper to a not very nice smell. I have decided not to eat it as I dont want to take the chance of getting food poisoning I have 2 small grandchildren staying with me. I will not be buying any other fresh meat from aldi in the future.”
“I Bought a beef roasting joint from your Redruth store on Monday 30th At approximately 19:45 This was to be used for our New Year’s Day dinner. When I went to unpack it the smell was disgusting it had completely gone off!! The use by date wasn’t until the 6th Jan. NOT very good!!!”
“Well for the very first time I am defending Aldi. I doubt their times stated 8am-8pm on a Sunday. No supermarkets will be open until 10am or 11am on a Sunday nation wide. It has been this way for many many years. I have just checked that store opening times and it CLEARLY states 10am-4pm SUNDAYS!!Also, there really is no need to swear on here.”
“First of all the bloody aldi should update their opening time and closing time online.. as a new customer I searched for the opening time on a Sunday and it said 8-8pm.. and when I went there the employees did not even want to communicate . It's disgusting.. someone who got common sense should be on top..if they cannot keep an eye on these things how can they ensure the quality of its food. God help it's customers . It happened in aldi in ponteland road Newcastle”
“Wouldn't you have thought that at least Aldi would have tried at Christmas time, but no. Lots of excuses of course and reasons why, even a sort of apology, but it is indicative of this nasty company to issue words of little meaning. What am I writing about? The fiasco and utter disgrace of their so called oven roast turkeys in those nasty little bags which are supposed to be oven proof. What happened? Many of these bags melted and ruined the birds within. Not only that but some people bought them and the contents were off. This latter part could be attributed to the rough handling of said packaged birds due to staff pressure to do ever more in their allotted hours. Surprise? Not really.”
