“DON’T SHOP AT THIS WEBSITE. I ordered and then followed up when my order didn’t arrive. They refused to refund my money or deliver my goods. THEY ARE SCAMMERS.”

“Sad to say, but I would give them zero stars if I could. I have ordered a few times and noticed that I always get products near or even beyond the expiry date upon arrival. So much so that the last order I placed, I made a note saying not to ship anything that I ordered with less than two weeks to go on on the expiry date. Received my order today and 5 out of 8 items have only 1 day before reaching the expiry date. BE FOREWARNED- THE BRITISH CORNER SHOP DOES NOT CARE WHAT THEY SHIP OUT. THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER COWBOY INTERNET COMPANY LOOKING TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK. BETTER YET IF YOU DON’T LIVE IN BRISTOL, AND EVEN MORE SO IF YOU LIVE ABROAD! I guess they have taken the Great out of Britain after all.”

“For a tin of biscuits and 4 packets of chips, they want to charge $90 for shipping plus another $50 for fuel costs. Are they mad??”

“I’ve always experienced good shipping times and despite the occasional damage and short expiry dates I’ve been mostly satisfied with the overall service, but there’s no excuse for the price gouging. A bag of Cadbury’s chocolate buttons for £3.50? £1 pound in Tesco’s. A 6 pack of Walker’s Squares for £3.50? £1.50 in Asda. These prices are bordering on human right’s abuses. Extremely disappointed in them.”

“The first time I used British Corner Shop it took a mere 10 days from placing the order to arriving in Vietnam in the middle of the pandemic- excellent service! So I decided to place another order for my husband’s birthday as he is on his own in Vietnam with borders closed. For some unknown reason the invoice had the correct delivery name and address but for customer details instead of my name and address had a generic “Rest of World Retail Sales”. Customs in Vietnam will no release a parcel unless it is person to person. I spent 3 weeks asking for the invoice to be changed to reflect the proper details. DHL Vietnam requested you to change the invoice. DHL UK requested you to change the invoice. Ms Mia Sharkey in customer services replied in no uncertain terms that it was not something you did and in any case it was not necessary to put customer details in the box that states Customer Name and Address. I received notice today that the parcel was destroyed. A further email stated that a refund has been given “as a sign of goodwill” .... but any future orders I should familiarise myself with your terms and conditions! .......... I would like you to familiarise yourself with the terminology “Customer Name and Address” as Rest of World Retail Sales GBP surely does not apply. To say I am disappointed is an understatement! And the turn of phrase used by customer services leaves a lot to be desired.”

“The parcel was supposed to have been transferred to the local postage system so there was no tracking and the parcel did not arrive - gutting!”

“Living in Germany, there's a lot of UK kitchen essentials that they don't sell over here, or don't have equivalent products for. British Corner Shop has a massive range of products, including amazing looking hampers which I'll definitely be looking at. Prices are really good, the shipping cost was reasonable and the parcel arrived, well packaged, really quickly. I even got a discount code to use next time I shop with them - which will be pretty soon! So glad we found this company”

“Really good customer service. Placed an initial order and then found when I wanted to place a subsequent order the graphics had changed on the box. E-mailed them and they looked up my first order, got back to me and assured me I was getting what I wanted. On both occasions my international shipment arrived well before suggested delivery date.”
