“Iceland started proving deliveries in my area so I placed an order and ordered a pack of their premium bananas in my delivery. When the order arrived I threw away all the bags from the products as I always do with orders from other supermarkets. However it was a few hours later when I went to have a banana that I realised they were almost liquid inside and looked a funny colour. We think they had been accidently frozen during transit. I took photos of them next to some I bought the following day in Tesco as proof in case they needed to see them. I couldn't get through to Iceland by phone (constantly engaged) so I emailed them. Two days later and after the bin men had collected my rubbish Iceland replied saying they needed loads of codes from the packaging before they could refund me! As I didn't have those I didn't get a refund. I use all the major supermarkets for online deliveries and if I ever need a refund their processes are simple and never ask for packaging numbers. This item cost £1 so for the sake of such a small amount why quibble? I certainly won't shop with them again.”

“I made a small order on 17-th of July. Out of 22 items, 4 came damaged. At least two of the items were definitely damaged in the store: they looked as if staff members were playing football with them! I sent an e-mail asking for a refund -- no response! I managed to get through to the Luton store on the phone and was told by a bunch of giggling employers that they will redeliver the damaged items the following day. Today, I tried to contact the store by phone to find out if they will redeliver and when but no one picks up the phone. This is absolutely unacceptable!”

“Bought lamb pieces for a tagine - after multiple slow cooking hours only thing the meat was fit for was the bin. This followed some tough chicken (I know) not normally possible - so last Iceland shop for me.”

“I recently went to Iceland on a Tuesday for the 10% discount , having been a costumer for many years , but this time unfortunately did not have my bonus card with me I stopped taking it as I never received anything from it so thought it was pointless, and apparently things had changed , and unless i had my bonus card with me I was told I could not have my discount . I spent a large sum there on this occasion . reported this to Iceland Online and having sent numerous email and have had no response . So wake up Staff in he Offices and start doing what you are paid for .”

“I have been shopping with Iceland Foods for over 20 years and in the past year there has been so many errors with my shopping, mouldy feta cheese, deliveries not happening as they claim they have already been which is definitely not the case! 6 pack of baked beans where the tins have been absolutely battered. Today they did not knock on my door as I am right next to the door, didn't even have music on or doing my housework so as I would hear them come and they left all my shopping strewn all over the place on my front door step which is absolutely disgusting. I called customer care and all they could offer was to collect the shopping and re deliver! What actually is the point of that. I will never shop there again the service and care has gone to pot.”

“G........ from the Braintree store delivered my shopping and started by trying to hand me a really heavy bag of goods, when I declined stating a back injury would stop me doing so he waited until I turned with some of the articles to put them in my kitchen and threw the rest of the bag over the crates onto my floor at a 1 metre drop. This was quickly followed by the second bag smashing my shopping onto the floor. When I asked him to slow down he started shouting he had 4 mins to deliver, Tesco and Sainsburys drivers had 12 mins and generally was rude, confrontational and argumentative. When I said I would stop shopping at Iceland and go to Tesco he advised I could go there if a wanted he didn't care. When I stated if we all started shopping elsewhere he might be out of a job, his response was he was Icelands best driver and would always have a job. I phoned the store who replaced the smashed items and promised a call back (none came) I escalated the matter with Iceland who stated they'd come back in 24/48 hours (nothing happened). On the previous 2 orders items were missed and I had to call also. Mums gone to Tesco - I suggest if you live in the Braintree area you do too!”

“I took up Iceland’s generous offer of 10% discount off my groceries on a Tuesday for the over 60s and I transferred my shopping from a rival supermarket. I have shopped at the food warehouse in Peel Park, Washington since the offer began. Up until today, the staff have been friendly and never asked for identification or for me to ask for the 10% discount I am 75 years old. Today I came face to face with a tattooed female bully called Courtney at the till who charged me full price for my shopping. I enquired on why she had not taken my 10% discount off my shopping 🛍️. She abruptly told that I hadn’t asked for it and therefore wouldn’t get it, I asked to see the manager and she begrudgingly then decided to refund the discount. What was her problem !! I would say she needs Customer Service Training at the very least. My previous supermarkets staff were Customer friendly and helpful and I will be going back. Iceland will lose mine and my families custom if they continue to employ staff like this. Mr Richard Walker Iceland CEO is promoting this offer, pity he hadn’t told his staff about it.”

“Iceland Minted Lamb Chump Chops 300g I bought 3 packs of these giving me 9 chops (if you can call them chops). each chop’s maximum thickness was 1 cm on one side which I would’ve accepted. However, the other side of the same chop was less than a millimetre thick. It was a sliver(cut screw) and this wasn’t just on one chop. It was an all 9 pieces. When I tried to cook them up, the one side was uncooked because it was thick, and the other side was burnt, because it was so thin. I contacted customer services 10 days ago I sent them the photos of the barcodes and the pictures of the chops and I still haven’t got a refund for this and it all wound up in the bin. I’ve bought several shops with ICELAND but I think this is the worst I’ve ever had especially with regards to customer service getting back to me or refunding me. Not sure I’m going to be shopping with ICELAND because of this whole experience. Both Tesco and ASDA seem to do the same thing with much better quality and at least the chops are evenly cut. It was a really bad experience and I’m now £9 out of pocket”

“Alongside my frozen products I bought some fresh meat, enough to feed a family of 4 for the week. It arrived with 1-2 days shelf life, when I complained and asked to return because we could not eat this within 1-2 days the customer service replied that 1-2 days is acceptable shelf life and not short & hope we shop again soon . Not a chance as I’ve wasted over £50 on food that will be thrown away !!”

“Iceland is profiteering in this economic climate, most of Icelands food is more expensive than other retail outlets, purchased a Warburton loaf of bread today, recommended retail price is £1.20 , Iceland charge £1.45, can you imagine if they are over charging 25p on ever item they sell, what overcharged prices are the customers paying, Iceland needs to be Ashamed.”

“I did an online form on 02/09 making a complaint via your website informing you of the unprofessional security guard at your Holloway road branch. He would not let me exit the store holding me hostage, demanding to see what was in my bag which I refused as I hadn't purchased anything from the store. He was aggressive and would not move out of my way invading my personal space until I showed him! He then walked away without an apology once seeing I had a receipt from Morrisons in my bag for the three items I had. I asked him why he stopped me, he said store cameras picked me up even though I did not touch any items in the store! I was there to buy ice which a member of staff informed me was out of stock when I couldn't find it. I was in the store for a few minutes. I contacted customer services who informed me they didn’t receive my complaint which I forwarded to a team member from who I spoke to on the phone and emailed me back a reference number informing me that it would be sent to the store Manager. I heard nothing back and after a few more failed calls to customer services. I ended up phoning the store Manager explaining what happened and to read my complaint. I went into the store for the Manager to tell me that the guard had been working there for many years and he is not his boss and he will have a word with him and that he didn’t get my compliant saying a new camera system picks up people. What kind of camera system picks up on innocent people? I am disgusted that I was treated this way. As a young woman who shops at Iceland regularly I did not expect to be harassed with no proof! This has triggered my anxiety!”

“Such a bad service from Cowley oxford store. Placed an order which was cancelled and moved by them to the following Sunday. Waited and nothing turned up called them call was answered but then left on hold for 20 mins and no one got back to me. Called again and was told they don’t deliver on Sundays !!!

Yet no e mail no phone call I have been an iceland customer for so long but no more i will find another shop.”
