“The negative reviews regarding Woolworths are not responded to because Woolworths doesn't care. Like all other supermarkets they profiteer and the customers there to make them rich. Woolworths steals by taking up to 5 working days to refund money they took and provided no order for. In the meantime that money earns them I interest. Thieves!”

“Good day, On 23 August 2024, I wanted to purchase Green Olive Rustic bread from the Woolworths Food branch in Woodbridge (Dann road, Kempton Park). There was only one loaf left. To my surprise the lady at the bakery asked how many loafs I wanted and asked me if she could bake me some. I asked how long it would take and she replied only 12 minutes. I affirmed and continue shopping and when I returned after 12 minutes I was handed my 2 loafs fresh from the oven. I want to thank the lady at the bakery (unfortunately I did not take her name) for really outstanding and excellent customer service. When I arrived at home I could not wait to have some of the deliciously fresh green olive rustic bread.”

“On the morning of my birthday a pretty bunch of lilies was delivered to my home in Port Elizabeth. They were sent to me by my daughter in Cape Town. They were all closed but still looked beautiful in my vase. Well, they opened slowly over the next few weeks and lasted a whole month which was a wonderful surprise. I enjoyed every minute. They must have been in mint condition. Thank you so much”

“The Dash/Woolworths app is so unreliable, terrible delivery time windows. My order from a some weeks ago never arrived, even though payment went through. I was not even contacted once that there was an issue, and there is no trace of the order on my app, yet the money was processed on my account. In good faith tried to reorder from them this evening…true as nuts, “experiencing issues” while processing payment. What a shocker!”

“Woolworths MELKBOSSTRAND The MANAGER on duty Saturday morning is use...., bad service, no interest in customer care or any service, rather stand and make jokes to the cashiers, I had to call him for help. His behavior was unprofessional. The store had nothing that we went for and we had to go to Tablebay Mall. The Manager that was at Melkbosstrand is now at Tablebay Mall say no more that's why the store staff is friendly and helpful and the shelves is full of stuff that you need and you can have a good experience. I will need to travel to Tablebay Mall OR START TO BUY EVERYTHING AT MELKBOSSTRAND 's PICK A PAY. We are regular customers since Woolworths opened in Melkbosstrand. Trek julle sokkies op of julle gaan baie besigheid verloor.”

“I have contacted woolworths contact centre got the worst service ever worse with their ridiculous app that is constantly slow and always giving me an error so frustrating 😑. The call centre agent are so unprofessional kept me on hold and after I called the 6th time she tells me staff dealing with apps don't work weekends. My question to her was if she is the only one who knows about it after I called 6 times and being put oh hold. Pathetic”

“Paid for my food order twice due to a site glitch. Customer service is absolutely terrible! They say no order has gone through and I have to wait 48 hours for a refund before I can place my order again. What point is there to ordering food online if they just take my money and don't process the order? I would give them zero starts if I could due to their care free attitude to this issue. Am I now supposed to go to a store and buy my items and pay for a third time?”
