“It was good at first, but then boxes didn't come for months, they automatically updated me for another year before I knew when to stop it. They misled me on some bonus items, took off my permanent discount for 12 streaks. And added another year because they refuse to refund after I accidentally bought what I thought was a 2nd year.
I opened a dispute with PayPal and got that extra year refunded and extra shipping for DHL that they just take out without warning. PayPal has blocked them from doing that again. I imagine PayPal is used to disputes, now. And be careful when you see tons of generic 5 star reviews. It's part of contests to get bonus items. TT likes to also delete bad reviews. Very carefully read their TOS. You literally give them permission to do whatever they want in regards to taking your money without warning.”
“I love this subscription! Tons of fun sweet snacks. I think they’re so fun especially for children because there’s Pokémon themed and anime themes and I love the interesting candy flavors they include. My only wish is they’d include allergy info but with google translate even that’s not too huge of a con.”
“I was charged a day too early for my box and was met with an overdraw fee as a result. I was then charged another 10.95 for no reason?!? Funny thing is I haven't even received the FIRST box I ordered and it was ordered on the 21st of June. Now I can't pay rent and I can't pay my school fees. Unhelpful customer service.”
“First, they failed to send several boxes. One might have been lost in the mail, but given other experiences, I doubt it.
Second, they automatically took money for the next year on the same day that I received an email from them.
Three, they then actively extorted me by claiming that, now that they had received payment, they still would send no boxes unless I paid yet more - blaming the Corona Virus.
Four, when their packages do arrive, they are interesting for the first one or two until you realize that they are all just flavored rice puffs, probably to save shipping weight.”
“Their boxes only come intermittently. They will email you that they are charging your card more (than the agreed upon prince for the service) the same day they take the money. Highly unethical group.”
“I also would not recommend, I have not received my box which was despatched 3/5/20, and I cannot help thinking it was never sent, as I cancelled my subscription immediately after the fee for May. I do not think you get a good deal, and they are really taking the p charging extra for postage. So disappointed”
“I just opend my first box and I am really happy. So much fing en yummy things. I can't wait until the next box!
Only sad thing is that my free kitkat wasn't in the box. But I can't be too mad over a free product.”
“Good customer service even during this pandemic, price is average for a box of this type, the items in the box vary and for the last few months we’ve had quite a few pieces of dagashi which are very small Japanese snacks, that’s much different from the photos advertised. Then, for May and August the boxes measured up and all the items were full size. Older members have commented that the increase in dagashi is unusual but is happening more often now. Also just note that the delivery costs extra temporarily to overcome the worst of the international postal delays. I’m pleased to see a box from Tokyo treat arrive at my door.”
“Great experience & super fast shipping!! 😊 I loved trying all the different treats and each of the flavours are definitely fun to taste, can’t wait for the next box”
“no refund at all if you buy any thing by mistake,
1 click and they will stole your money without confirmation, and you cant delete you credit card from your account”
“My May box (shipped 14th April) still hasn’t turned up... I’m so disappointed in this company and every ticket I send through to question them about it they push me further and further back. I keep getting robotic answers and they are coming up with every excuse under the sun to NOT refund me. First, they have to wait for the box to come back, but if it’s lost in the post then it can’t come back so I’m paying for nothing, then I have to wait 6 weeks since shipping, I message a day after still not received my box then they tell me to wait 90 days and push it back even further... I’ve paid for 2 boxes and received nothing... I am incredibly disappointed in this company at the moment... I’ve put $70 (plus $10 as they are forcing everyone to pay for “priority shipping” which means absolutely nothing!) dollars to them and got NOTHING out of it! 😔 I feel incredibly disappointed and ripped off... I had high hopes for them but now I’m just considering swapping services as soon as I’m able to settle the disputes about my missing boxes...
I’ve skipped the July box and I’m also still waiting on the June box. This company has let me down. I keep telling them that their shipment should be here by now because I had ordered something else from Japan the same week and that arrived within 2 weeks of ordering AND I didn’t pay for anything extra shipping wise.
I'm going through Paypal to try and get a refund as it's beyond a joke now. Constantly getting their excuse of 'Covid-19' is causing delays. Well, why is it that some people in the UK are getting their boxes and some people aren't? This company has some issues and they are making it incredibly difficult for me to trust any other subscription service like this in the future!”
“***THIS COMPANY WILL NOT REFUND YOU FOR ANYTHING***
Am still waiting on April & May boxes (current end of July).
Have had other things shipped over from Japan with delays of a few weeks - not months.
The parcels have clearly either not been sent in the first place or have got lost in the post. However TokytoTreat point blank refuse to give you a refund or try to help in any way to find your parcel, give you vouchers, send a new box or ANYTHING to make up for it. So im now down $60 with absolutely nothing to show for it. Currently having to escalate the issue with Paypal as Tokyotreat refuse to do anything.
In addition to this they will also charge you extra whenever they see fit for "additional express shipping costs". The parcels were supposed to arrive in 10-14 days, its now been nearly 3 months so thats fun.”
“I was subscribed for about 9 months. At first it was great and exciting but the contents started getting quite boring and repetitive. I'd cancelled my subscription at this point. I had however, paid for two months of boxes that hadn't arrived. I contacted customer support and have basically been told there's nothing they can do. £90 down the drain thanks guys”
