“Would leave 0/5 stars if I could. Single handedly the worst food delivery company I have ever used. Ordered food boxes on 2 separate occasions - on both occasions the box did not arrive! Each time, I had to REPEATEDLY waste my time explaining myself over and over and over again to various different customer service team members before eventually receiving a refund. Stick to Hello fresh - you will be much better off! Hello fresh use DPD and they NEVER disappoint. Gousto use Evri / Hermes - says it all really.”

“I have had food from Gusto for a few years and nevr had a problem BUT I was recentley sent an offer of 60% off my next order if I reactivated my subscription. I did this and placed an order for 19th September. On 11th September I received a text from the delivery company to say my order was being delivered the next day! This box contained 4 meals, none of which I would have chosen. I was charged full price for this box. I contacted Gusto by their chat line and email and have not had an apology, never mind a discount. No one seems to know what is going on, they kept telling me I couldn't have a discount as I was already a customer, the offered me 30% off my next box. There won't be a next box!”

“Three weeks ago, YODEL delivered my box - it wasnt what I ordered. A 35 minute phone call to customer service at GOUSTO resulted in the order being placed for a second time and delivery promised by YODEL between 4pm and 6pm on 31st August. It didnt arrive. YODEL'S app claimed that there were issues with my address (the precise address they delivered to 3 weeks ago). Why didnt they telelphone me (my number is available to them). Is this Yodel's excuse for failed deliveries? I am alarmed to be informed that their vans are not refrigerated either. I AM FURIOUS AND WOULD ADVISE YOU TO TREAD CAREFULLY IF YOU'RE RELYING ON GOUSTO.”

“The ingredients go out of date too quickly. Get my delivery Tuesday get 5 meals expect it to get to Sunday at least. The meals are out of date by Friday. Even trying to use the meals in order of expiry which means you have to track through them and check each ingredients expiry. They are all going off 3 days later no where near lasting the week. The meat, the veg - its all vinegar by day 5. Gousto and Hello Fresh are expensive - it'd be worth it if they actually had fresh ingredients but they dont.”

“I’ve had Gousto in the past & found it really good but after subscribing again about 4 weeks ago I’ve had problems with every delivery. One didn’t come until 8pm at night and yet the use by dates were 2-3 days!! I order 4 meals for 4 people so unless I was gonna cook 2 meals per day we’d have been eating out of date found. Customer service rep kept insisting everything would be fine to eat even though it had been in transit more than 24 hour. The following day quite a few of the vegetables were spoiled & unfit to eat. I put everything in an email with pictures attached and am still waiting for a reply over a week later. I’ve since cancelled my subscription ☹️”

“First box dumped on the other side of town. Second box ran 2 days late at which point we cancelled our delivery only for it to be marked as "delivered" god knows where. Still waiting on a refund and won't be using again.”

“You cancelled my box because you are no good at supply and demand and you are working beyond your means. You get all this free advertising from us that sign up and share our link then to send out the peoples who’s paid for their boxes and then you don’t have the ingredients for the free boxes. That was actually our life line this weekend and now we don’t know what to do. Customer services are a joke too. I’ve left this bad review, I’ve posted onto my food page of over 15k members and I’ve cancelled my subscription as well as the 12 friends I invited and who signed up.”

“I ordered my first box it has not shown up. I have the confirmation email and when I asked customer service he said the system cancelled the order and then he disappeared. Not bothering now. He didn’t even bother to try and ask if they could have it delivered”

“Utterly ridiculous. Signed up to the subscription. Then was charged £25 for a box of food I hadn’t ordered. Was told that because I had subscribed they would send me a box of food even if I hadn’t ordered it full of food I may or may not like. Cancelled the subscription as it’s a disgusting waste of food sending out boxes to people full of food they don’t want or can’t eat.”

“Deliveries don't arrive on day you've booked. Box not left in a secure place, as requested. It was left in front of our shop on the main road instead of at the rear of the property in our garden. Ingredients often missing and if you need to contact Yodel, they're very abrupt and almost rude”

“Used to love it but now difficult to complain about numerous wrong or missing ingredients and they sent a box we didn't order with stuff we cannot eat!!! Fuming. V hard to complain to them now.”

“Just adding things to you basket means they are automatically ordered for you. This is terrible! I will not use this service again”

“We did not receive any chicken, yogurt, spring onions for the fajitas. We also only received one rice for the Thai curry. We were credited with just £6.75 compensation which will not even cover the cost of the missing chicken. When the issue was your error you should replace the items and send them out. Surely you can understand that a part refund is of no use to me at all. Clearly defeats the purpose of Gousto!! Really annoying and I will be leaving negative reviews.”

“I ordered a starter box I did not press the subscribe button. I was then sent a food box I did not ask for or want. I suspended my account. I later looked up see what menus there was and amazingly they sent a box again I did not order. Called to cancel everything then called to say a delivery I did not ask for gas come. Offered 30% off something I did not order them 70% Once you look they have got you avoid at all costs”
