Don't seem to understand the difference between a customer and a supplier

My order was delivered by DPD not to my door as instructed but to the building hallway in central London, where it was naturally immediately stolen. Instead of doing what every single other vendor would have done in this scenario which was to either offer a refund or a replacement, and sort out the delivery problem with DPD, Optimum Nutrition decided to involve me in some convoluted back-office process where my money was held hostage and I had to return documents to take part in some kind of DPD investigation. Despite multiple escalations over a number of weeks the customer service team displayed no understanding of how e-commerce works, nor the difference between a supplier claim which is frankly not my problem and a customer who has done no wrong. I had to involve my credit card company in the end who pushed for a refund on my behalf. After which Optimum Nutrition still had the gall to email me to ask me to withdraw my claim with the credit card company. Truly a surreal experience. A real shame as the product is good - just seem to have no understanding of customer experience.

Can’t recommend anybody

One of two shakers I bought broke after just one usage. The latch had shifted off-centre, so it got noticeably crooked. Tried to get a response from support but nobody answered

So I purchased the chocolate brownie…

So I purchased the chocolate brownie bar which I have previously purchased as a single pack and they are delicious. In addition to this I got the chocolate protein shakes, which again were delicious providing the additional necessary protein in easy to consume products. The products were delivered within the timeframe mentioned and I will definitely be purchasing these products again and would definitely recommend other people to purchase. Life is short and most people don’t have the time to get all their protein in, especially when you’re bulking and the products offered by this company always help.

Item arrived open

Item arrived open, contacted customer services on 16th July and the response is not solving the problem. I want to RETURN for a replacement or refund, they are avoiding this. Will never order again and will just change to a different brand of product. Will be contacting my credit card provider for a chargeback

Excellent Products & First-Class Service

I’ve ordered from Optimum Nutrition UK several times now, and every experience has been excellent. The website is easy to navigate, ordering is straightforward, and delivery has always been quick and reliable.

The products are consistently high quality, and it’s reassuring to know you’re buying directly from the manufacturer. I also appreciate the regular offers and discounts, which make premium supplements even better value.

Overall, a company I trust for my sports nutrition needs, and one I’ll continue to buy from. Highly recommended.

Sad but true - no,longer value for money

Just bought the new clear protein (incentivised by the free creatine). Good change from whey with a nice clean taste. Originally looking to buy Gold Standard but at nearly £100 a tub that was a no go. Sadly after nearly 20 years I am now having to explore other protein powders.
