“The Lidl in Whiteley has gone down hill since it first opened empty shelves never have what I usually buy there prices increasing the staff are not very helpful and the management there are not very approachable end up going to other supermarkets this branch needs a shake up hopefully you can get these issues sorted out”
“I bought 6 de luxe mince pies expecting them to resemble the picture on the packet. I was wrong and so disappointed. Usually the products are great but these were awful! The pastry was dry and tasteless and the filling was meagre and dried /shrivelled. Very poor product I am returning them to the store for their comments.”
“Bought the most sour disgusting oranges from Lidl today! These could pass as lemons! Lidl doesn’t care and sells this rubbish ! Why ? I believe because nobody wants to go through there returns procedures. Queue at the checkout then interrupt the checkout. And wait for a supervisor to approve the refund, with everyone watching and waiting! A deliberate ploy by Lidl so they hardly get returned fruit or veg. Shameful management tricks ?”
“Way too many moldy foods. Had to tell staff that a whole pile of tomatoes was white from all the mold all over them leading to him taking the whole cart with him from the shop floor due to how bad it was. Almost all the packaged fruits also almost always have mold in them. Disappointing. Takes 10 mins just to find one box that doesn't.”
“Cien facial wipes. Used to be the absolute best, beating the leading brands in my opinion . They had a fabulous texture that sort of gripped the skin to clean it.
They’ve changed the fabric of the wipe (obviously to cut costs) feels like it’s disconnected from the skin, so to achieve contact to cleanse you have to rub really hard. I can honestly say it’s this product that made me shop at Lidl. Not buying again as has left my skin sore. No reason to go out of my way to shop there anymore.”
“Won't be shopping at lidls again they have changed the lidls rewards system £250 to get 10% off your next shop which doesn't include alcohol over the road to aldi for us”
“Fresh produce it ain't! You have to be ultra careful in what you select especially in the packaged goods where you cannot see through the wrapping.
DON'T get me started on their new bonus scheme con if you can ever spend £250 in a month to be rewarded with having to spend more money to benefit.
If you are over 60 go to Iceland on a Tuesday for their deals.”
“2 steak & old peculiar pies. Brand Deluxe. There was nothing Deluxe about these pies but peculiar they are. 50% empty and 50% of the meat is lumps of fat and gristle. I would not recommend you try these pies. Unfortunately in the uk pie manufacturers see pies as a way of dumping fat and gristle and covering it in pastry. These are no Exception.”
“Myself and a friend were at a Lidl store (Bentilee) at 9.45 this morning to get an Addis clothes dryer. Even though the store should not open till 10am it was already open. All the stock was gone. According to the staff they only had 5 in. What is the point of advertising if that is all there going to have in. I’m fuming!!!!”
“Just received by bonus for spending £150 at Lidl, a free W5 product , such was the amazing selection my flabber was gasted, how do they do this ,
They have stopped the loyalty bonus , oh and Sainsburys are cheaper now.”
“Very poor service regarding the Lidl Plus card by Kelly Weston Flavell today,
She didnt have any Idea on how to use the Lidl Plus card or the Name of Lidl Store to enter into the App and I was not able to add on my points.
She was very irritable with me as she said the Lidl Plus card was taking too much of her time.”
“I'm allergic to seeds, pips so have to be careful what I eat. I always buy seedless red grapes the green produce too much acid in the stomach. Last weekend I took home my red seedless grapes to have with my morning porridge only to find seeds. I had to cut into my grapes and remove the seeds before I could use them. The odd one with seeds might be acceptable not a whole Punit. Didn't buy any this week.”
“The change from the £200 spend giving a £10 voucher to a £250 spend rewarded by 10% discount from the next shop just makes me feel cheated. At the till today we asked what 'The Product Coupon' was and they said it was a free W5 item so my wife dashed back around the shelves thinking a 40p bottle of bleach was better than nothing and there wasn't a single W5 product there. Lidl, you are taking your loyal customers for fools and it's not nice!”
“I purchased two items with a label on stating 30% off at the Fazakerley store in Liverpool and yet again I have been charged full price what a rip off, I called customer services at 11:30 today 30minutes after my visit to the shop only to be told you have take a picture of the said items, then drive back to the store to get a refund. WHAT A POOR WAY to deal with a complaint. No more visits to Lidl we have Aldi just around the corner.”
