Very quick service
Very quick service. All items as expected and there was no postage charge for shopping balance over £ 15.00. Will use them again. Well done.

White vinegar …
Ordered White vinegar from you mainly to kill off an invasion of Ivy - only one dose applied yesterday -
I will certainly let you know the result after a few more sprays - will be placing more orders during the coming weeks. Thank you for your prompt delivery service.

Customer Service
This is how companies should rectify issues with a customer. Red Rickshaw I originally gave you 4 stars because of a product I was not satisfactory with. However I am happy to give you 5 stars because your customer service is awesome. You addressed the issue and even offered an apology and a part refund which was fair. I'll definitely use your company again. Thank you.

I ordered Alphonso mangoes
I ordered Alphonso mangoes. The ones I received were shrivelled and I had to throw 3 of them away as they could not be eaten. The mangoes I received last year were excellent. I looks as if i got some badly sored mangoes. So disappointed

Would have given ZERO if I could have - BEWARE
Placed my first (and last) order with RR. Wanted Custard Apples, Star fruit and some ‘normal ingredients’ ie courgette, lime, kiwi, pak choi, coconut etc.
Large box arrived on stated delivery day - that’s where good parts end.
Custard Apples were missing (but they had advised prior to delivery).
Star Fruit was the size of a small tangerine with brown spots - went straight to compost bin.
Coconut the size of an apple - smallest I have ever seen - not tried it yet.
Kiwi- bruised - went to bin.
Courgette soft by day 2 - went to bin.
Pak Choi wilted by day 3 - yep you gussed where it went.
Much better, fresher, longer lasting produce from Sainsburys or even Lidl. Understand it is set up to provide hard to find ingredients but of the 2 ‘hard to find’ ie custard apples and star fruit - 1 missing and the other might as well have been.

Items arrived in time
Items arrived in time. The ginger were large and the price is right. I'm also happy with the litres of vinegar. The price is also right. The mangoes are smaller than expected and I didn't like the sight of them.
