Avoid this company like the plague. Orders vanish for months, emails go unanswered, and the owner, Daniel, is the root of the problem—arrogant, evasive, and never accountable. Customer service doe... See more

Ordered salt well over a month ago

Ordered salt well over a month ago. Very little updates and correspondence. Still wondering where my salt delivery is, even though was told it was delivered to stock over 2 weeks ago. Won’t be using again.

Delivery to the NR postcode is once per month due to the distance. This is clearly stated on our website. You received your delivery within this timescale.

I have used them in the in the past with no issues..
T&C mention Minimum 15 working days, but normally quicker.
Now we are told there are substantial delays and I have no idea when delivery will be made. I order over a month ago and no scheduled date yet.

You won't be able to buy from us again as you have been banned from our services. We will only deal with customers and clients who demonstrate honesty and integrity. You lied about the service received, got caught telling lies and then to try and get back at us you leave a one star review.

Ordered salt on the 15th of November

Ordered salt on the 15th of November, order number 13778, from the genuine site! No replies to phone and messages, the order is well overdue.
Let's see if Trustpilot confirms its self to be the best channel to get attention.

UPDATE: Received SMSs to inform me that my order is due next week, improving my rating by one star

UPDATE: Delivered in the 12th (despite what the reply says, well beyond what stated here: siwasaltdirect dot com/pages/delivery-pricing, which should have been within the 6th of December)

Delivery was made today (12th December) well within the stated timescales for delivery. You made ONE attempt to contact us on our live chat and you got a reply.

Don't reply to any emails whatsoever, poor customer service

Don't reply to any emails whatsoever, no sign of any salt after 28 days since ordering, said I would be claiming back through credit card then they cancelled the order that was never likely to be sent anyway.

Complete false review, you had your order cancelled due to poor behaviour and language.

Rude and aggressive

Placed an order with this company on the 7th July and today chased up to see how they are progressing with my delivery. Phone number is a mobile number which they did not answer instead starting sending text messages. When questioned they responded with their economy delivery is15working days which is just ridiculous as they apparently deliver themselves. Then he questioned why I didn’t choose the express delivery to which I responded because it’s £50!! The response was it’s not my charges it’s the courier! This is after telling me they deliver themselves… the tone of responses was very aggressive! He went on to then say he uses a courier for the express service only then said no it’s a Uber type service as the couriers damage the salt. I mean correct if I’m wrong but this person just sounds extremely confused! He went on to blow his own trumpet about how he’s a £10million company and how he provides Kinetico uk and Spain to which my response was I would have thought you would have your courier service and delivery charges in a better state if that is the case. He proceeded to carry on by sending me screen shots from Kinetico website comparing 30 bags of salt price to what I had purchased which was 18 bags and then insulted me by saying I need to concentrate on my maths. I told him I’m not here for a slanging match and was simply inquiring about my delivery! I have requested a refund and if this doesn’t happen I will simply request a charge back on my credit card. Very rude and unprofessional. Please don’t waste your time or money! Also if you do choose to purchase through this firm pay via a secure source. Also on another note no I have not purchased from the soo called copy cat company and is from here I have all the emails.
Edit:
In response to you I have not sent a single email to you please provide proof of this! However I have now added screenshots of our only text message conversation onto google reviews as trustpilot does not allow uploads. I have never asked for your insanely priced express delivery but was simply querying when I would receive my order. Also you blocked my number- how old are you? Once again demonstrating your immature childish behaviour with the insults! Very glad you have not had my custom. For anyone in doubt the screenshots are on google reviews! As you have stated let the people draw their own conclusions this is a public platform for people to come and express their experiences of businesses and unfortunately you have failed to address me as a customer yet wanted a slurring match instead! I have written a true and honest review of my experience no need to be butt hurt!

What an amazing story. Would happily give you 5 stars for that! Should really place it in the fiction section. A complete story of lies. Ill add the screenshots of the rude and childish emails received from this individual. Due to his number being blocked, has now decided to take to trustpilot. All because he was unable to read a delivery estimate on a website, and wanted an express delivery for the price of an economy delivery. You seem to have been having a conversation with yourself as none of that was actually sent to us on the messenger. Made great reading though Ata Kha, well done. Nobody said anything about emails, the word messenger was used! And we blocked your number! Again, maybe read things through properly like you were told before. More examples of your misunderatanding and not reading things properly. Anyone wanting a good, check out this guys review history. Bit of a theme, can only give one star reviews and full story with it. Ill let everyone draw their own conclusions as the tyoe of individual this is. Everyone in thebworld is rude and aggressive, everyone has poor customer service amd everyone a problem! Maybe time to take a look in the mirror.

Nearly two months to receive order.

After waiting for a month for my order to arrive I tried to reach the company. The company would not respond to emails and the phone number did not work, so I assumed they went out of business. However, after nearly two months, my shipment arrived. I will not do business with them again.

Re the reply by Siwa Salt. My order number is #10101 and was placed on Jan 15, 2023. I have written records of the order and my emails to you. I have phone records of my calls.

Unable to find any record of this customer on our system. We assume they have purchased from the copycat company, hence the negative experience.

Siwa salt direct is a genuine company…

Siwa salt direct is a genuine company supplying salt owned by Daniel Cole. Siwa salt ltd is another company that claims Siwa salt direct is a fake. Well it’s not because Daniel delivered the salt as described in his packaging, logo etc. Please only order From Daniel NOT Mark the fake company owner.
Thank you Daniel and I’m sorry to learn you are mistaken at times for the scam company out there. Hope your business does not suffer and I’ll definitely re order
