Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Seductively cheap pricing, apparently glowing reviews (clearly false) and then they stopped returning calls, the website was taken down and my goods never appeared. I got a refund from my credit car... See more

Believe the reviews!

Please, please, please...believe the bad reviews! This company is a complete scam. Ordered something on 1st July for a gift with '48 hour shipping'. Got a confirmation and nothing else for 2 weeks. I got some spam from them with the title 'Haven't heard from you lately...Is everything alright?'...the irony was not lost given I had heard nothing from them about my order in 2 weeks!

I emailed to ask for a refund on the 15th July and got a mail back telling me:

For prompt assistance, we encourage you to utilize our convenient Live Chat feature available on our website.

We do not provide order support via email. Please go to our website.

Please note that we do not provide support over the telephone.

Basically they don't provide any support in any way because the online chat is also a joke and the company is a scam!

They mailed on 18th July to tell me my order was 'stuck in processing' so I decided they were not worth my time and just bypassed them completely and raise a claim through my bank to get my money back.
AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS!

Crooks and thiefs

You will need to contact trading standards to get your money back beware! I ordered and paid for two items on 8 July. I have repeatedly tried to phone but the mailbox is 'full' and I have sent messages to request a refund. All I get back are emails asking if I would like to order more products! I have now seen the terrible reviews online and wish to broadcast loud and clear that it is not wise to buy from Green Essentials. In fact they have effectively stolen my money and it appears other peoples too. I plan to go round to Rickmansworth...to the store.

Do not order from this Company!

I paid £154.95 mid June for salt tablets.
Never received anything but automated excuses.
They did not even respond to my recorded delivery letter. After more than 2 months I managed to get my money back throught my Credit Card.
Am sure The CC Company will make them pay up!
Stay away from Greens!

Massive 🤬

This company is an absolute nightmare, I have been completely scammed. I’ve been waiting for my order since 2nd June. No order, no refund. Nothing. The people on the end of the emails or “online chat” are complete liars and literally the most useless people to ever exist. Don’t waste your money or time with these 🤬

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced with your recent order. We understand how frustrating this situation must be for you.

After investigating the issue, we discovered that your parcel was unfortunately damaged during transit by Evri. We've checked our records and, unfortunately, we did not receive any messages from you, which is why this issue was not addressed sooner.

As an apology for the trouble, we've processed a full refund for your order. You should see the funds back in your account within 2-3 working days.

Once again, we deeply apologize for the inconvenience and any frustration caused. If there's anything else we can assist you with, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Avoid - no delivery OR refund

I was really excited to place my order, including several items for a birthday. After 3 weeks still nothing, it was impossible to get in touch with them via their online contact form or email. Eventually got through to ask them to cancel my order, was promised a refund a month ago which never materialised. I feel very stupid! Avoid this company, awful service and you'll just lose your money.

DO NOT GIVE THESE SCAMMERS ANY MONEY.

Hands down worst customer service I have ever come across. Ordered in late July. Package received a few days later was just an empty box. They only do customer support through online chat which takes days to get a response and you have to manually check back for updates. Still no refund from my purchase a month later.

Shortly after I posted this Greens Essentials replied saying they had changed their systems and wanted to offer me 50% off my next order, but since they still haven't refunded my original order that just comes across as asking me to send them more free money.

Hello Dave, we are very sorry to hear this. In early July and June we had a huge issue with Evri where lots of orders arrived with missing items and full contents missing. After purchasing a Evri service we were left with refunding the customer in whole and hurting our own customer in the process. We have since rectified the process and have logged all customers who were affected with a cross claim being pursued.

We take this very seriously and as of the 23rd July we have an entirely new order process and carrier service.

I would be very happy to honour a new order with a 50% discount because of what’s happened.

Waited a month for delivery

Waited a month for delivery, ended up with refund after countless lies such as it’s been delivered. We’ve changed courier, and finally and most laughable was the excessive summer heat has damaged their stock of crisps.

Order #36937

Order #36937. After 2 weeks of waiting I have received only 3 of the 4 bottles of Prime ordered. Checked my account and the order show fulfilled. No sign the box was damaged. Don’t recommend ordering if you want to stay away from headaches.
