“Woolworths handed my account over to mbd, when I requested mbd the amountbi was owing they gave me a price of R6623.91. When I settled this balance they introduced a new balance. The balance they gave me kept on changing, they are not making it easy for me to settle the account. They would not allow me to speak to the manager. When I request the amount they handed me over for at woolworths, they are saying they can't see my account since it was handed over. There are so many stores that hand over people but they do not delete customer information because this exploits customer against companies like mbd”

“They don’t communicate when there is an issue, spent R100 on airtime calling to find out what is happening with my order!? Checkers 60 far mor efficient and communication more fluid! Don’t waste your time rather order from checkers”

“Woolworths Dash is the worst. It's either the delivery is late, order is canceled without notification or you fight to get your money back after a canceled order. They should just cancel Dash and we will continue using sixty60 and ASAP.... If you valued your customers you should atleast give us an option of adding the credit in ones profile so that they can use it to make a purchase again or return it to the bank account within 48 hours.... Learn from sixty60 and Asap.”

“Purchased Pork chippolate sausages for Sunday brunch. While the flavour was good the casings were tough, difficult to chew and mostly had to go to the dog. I have not experienced this before. Batch number 74312030 . Purchased at Stellenbosch Square store”

“My clothing order arrived covered in diesel/ petrol. I have spent the last week trying to get my items replaces via email/ phone/ in-store. Absolute rubbish service. No-one responds and no-one has bothered to replace any item. Other online delivery sites are far superior and woolworths need to take a serious look at their online support”

“I am beyond livid. I booked and payed for the 10-13:00 Time slot for my delivery. Phoned customer service 3 times and spoke to the store customer service said the delivery would be dispatched from 9 times. Just for them to say they cant reach the driver, then they said they would repick my order and send it at 14:15. At 16:45 I got a call from the fresh department manager saying they would escalate my order to Monday. I had to go to a store to buy alternative Sunday lunch vegetables and meat and had to get stuff for school and work lunch packs. Might I add that this was all part of my delivery. I will not wait 10 days for a refund if thw money went out of my account in 10 seconds.”

“I ordered shirts for my daughter and they didn’t fit. I called customer service and asked them to send me my invoice as every store needs the invoice number to refund me. After I gave the lady all my details for verification she told me their policy says they can’t send me my invoice???? Every store I order with online, and every customer deserves an invoice for their purchases, sends me one. Online “ view my invoice “ never works. So store has to call them, I have to give in all my details again, and they send invoice to store. This is ridiculous and against the consumer law. Pathetic will never order again online”

“I have been buying your pepper steak pies for years, but after today, I will go elsewhere.The pies were riddled with gristle and big pieces of dry meat. Standard has definitely gone down while the price has steadily been going up.”

“Woolies double toffee frozen yoghurt! Not value for money as it tastes exactly like an ice cream instead of a frozen yoghurt. It is not even smooth! If I had my till slip I was gonna return it immediately!”

“Hi. I had a very good experience at Woolworths Richards Bay. A cashier by the name of Amy that worked at the customer service tills on the 20 July 2024. She went out of her way to assist me with receiving my vouchers when my phone battery died off. She borrowed a charger to charge my phone so that I can use my voucher.”

“I have been asking on every platform of yours, the post I ask on gets deleted. I would like to know WHY Woolworths adds cane SUGAR in almost ALL of your foods, even your healthier foods. Is it because sugar is addictive? I don’t understand your reasons as sugar leads to all sorts of health problems. Please could you assist me with this answer?”

“I bought today two crusty rolls from the bakery counter at your Kyalami Corner shop. At home I realized that one of the rolls was hard as a rock!!! I must have received the roll that was on display for the last couple of weeks.... I am a Pensioner and its needless to say that I did not return the roll to the shop to avoid petrol costs. I therefore had no other choice than throwing my purchase into the bin. My complaint is not a matter of expecting a few Rand refund from Woolworths, its a matter of unacceptable quality especially when I looked forward to enjoy Woolies salads and fresh rolls for lunch with my daughter.”
