Good customer service when DHL messed up
DHL never delivered my package even though it had supposedly been out for delivery. I asked Kellys to contact DHL, but DHL didn't reply within a timeframe I found acceptable. They shipped my order a second time and it arrived the next day; no annoying back-and-forth with customer service required. One item had gone out of stock since I first placed my order and I immediately received a refund for it.
Frozen crumpets shipped in warm wearher
Frozen crumpets, advertised as chilled, shipped during warmer weather have of course arrived totally thawed and went straight into to be bin, since the company doesn't provide packaging suitable for frozen products.
I called them - and it is my problem, although they incorrectly advertise stuff on their site.
No logical resolution policies in place
When I order perishable food items from a webshop, I expect a certain level of urgency around shipping. I have been waiting over 1.5 weeks for a package of food stuffs from Kelly’s that I should have received within a few days. Unfortunately, it is certain now that some of the items will be expired by the time the package gets to me, if ever.
I’ve emailed and called Kelly’s and they seem to have no sensible resolution policies for lost or stuck packages. Even though my package will need to be refunded, returned, and reshipped, Kelly’s forces me to wait for the carrier to proclaim the package lost. Instead of internally resolving the issue for me and reshipping my order (which I have already paid for mind you), I need to chase them.
How is it better customer service to not proactively resolve the order delay by reshipping the package, than to make me wait for a delivery that will need to be reshipped anyways. I spoke to 3 people including a supervisor who all tried to imply that I made some error on the shipping address, even though I ordered from my account on their webshop with my saved and validated address. As if that wasn’t bad enough, they also seemed to think that I was trying to game their system, because reshipping my order to me now could mean I end up with 2 orders, if my lost order ever comes. As if a box of expired and close to expired food is some sort of win for me.
Ridiculous…just really inefficient and illogical customer service resolution practices. I’ll be ordering from Tijn’s Toko next time.
No go for job
Not about their products, but their behaviour when you apply for a job. My daughter was asked for an interview in Utrecht. That seemed to have gone well. Then asked for a trial. She worked for 4 hours. The boy who assisted told her that it went well. And within a couple of days she would here from them. She was NOT paid (which is illegal) and she never heard from them again. Disgusting Niet over hun producten, maar over hun gedrag tijdens een sollicitatieprocedure. Mijn dochter werd uitgenodigd voor een gesprek in Utrecht. Dat leek goed te gaan. Daarna werd ze gevraagd om een proefdag te doen. Ze heeft vier uur gewerkt. De jongen die haar begeleidde zei dat het goed was gegaan en dat ze binnen een paar dagen iets van hen zou horen. Ze is NIET betaald (wat illegaal is) en daarna heeft ze nooit meer iets van hen gehoord. Walgelijk.
Reliable
Ordered a few times from this company. Always deliver quickly to Germany and my order has always been 100% correct.
Paying for UK imported goods way OVER…
Paying for UK imported goods way OVER the odds and end up with Cadbury's chocolate made in Germany? Disingenuous at best. Why do expensive Kelly's? RIP OFF
Order Via Webshop
Since my nearest Kelly's is an hour away on a bus, I decided to give the webshop a try.
The next day, an item I had placed on "notify when available", came available. I emailed the customer service department to see if it was possible to add it onto my order.
The customer service department replied really fast, and were able to add the item to my existing order before it shipped out. It arrived the next day, with every item carefully packaged to protect it.
Overall, very happy with the webshop experience.
Returned product
I returned a product that was way below the standard I expected from this shop. I wrote about not getting a refund for this product and still need to hear from the store. I would have bought a superior grade product (more expensive) had I received a refund for the returned product. It's very disappointing customer service.
Another wasted visit to Kellys Expat…
Another wasted visit to Kellys Expat Shopping. I think this might be the last time I bother to go and see empty shelfs at the weekend. The people in the shop are friendly and they tell me they have deliveries on Tuesdays but my family and I don’t live in Utrecht so that is not helpful. I’ve been several times on a weekend to pick up some sausages etc but again today, empty shelfs. Great concept but poorly executed.

Great choice for foreign food
Great range of products, good prices, very well packed for shipping.
Highly recommended
A brilliant selection of products and - most important - a customer service that goes out of their way to solve any problems with DHL. Shipments are always fast and well packed. I highly recommend Kellys Expat Shopping.
All products arrived quckly
All products arrived quckly. Ordered Saturday, and arrived Tuesday.
Competitive prices and excellent service
The prices in general, are better than other similar sites. There is a wide range of goods, including a small number of chilled items. Packaging is excellent and delivery only takes a couple of days in EU.
great customer service.
They have nice selection of products. but what made them special is their customer service. I made a mistake on shipping address and lost my package but they have opened investigation with DHL and made sure i got my order. they went above and beyond. that is a great customer service!

Thanks Kelly's Expat ,
Good American and British products
Good wide selection of American and British products. Unfortunately some things are difficult for them fo bring over after the Brexit.
Good service- lady with green hair working in Amsterdam is a star! Really helpful, engaged in conversation and pays attention to jump in to help you when needed. Really sweet!
Kelly's is absolutely the place to go…
Kelly's is absolutely the place to go for all your (American & English) Expat shopping! The selection is broad, the delivery is fast and the customer service is the best of any web shop I have shopped at (and have shopped here for at least 10 years!). If a mistake occurs, they have always corrected it within days. And since this is food, their packaging of the products is again the the best of of any web shop I have shopped at! I can't recommend it more highly!
