The product is awesome, customer service? Meh

The product is awesome! But I got auto signed up for a subscription (EVERY TWO WEEKS) and then I reached out to customer service because I couldn't log in, but no one answered. So I had to pay for 3 bags to try settleds flavor because no one would help me or assist with cancelation or refund:/

Shocking delivery

It's who you use to deliver the item. Evri in the UK is shocking. We still haven't recieved the item as they have delayed it again. They are very unreliable.

Product Received.....Mostly Intact.

The product I received was well packaged, but one of my 4 packages of powder had a hole in it and had leaked out. Thankfully, the pouches of powder were in a ziplock, but the inside of the bag and the other pouches were all coated in the leaky powder. So -1 product for me I guess.

Great but chunky

Paradise Potion tastes great! And it's quite healthy. I've slotted this in as my weekday lunch and it's a pretty nice kickstart into the afternoon. One negative is it's very hard to mix so you're drinking chunks - my whey protein mix does not have this issue.
Going into my second week and I still find it to be worthwhile.

Hey Panzey, thank you so much for this feedback! I'd like to mention all of our shake flavors do have inclusions in them, and Paradise Potion's coconut inclusions may be on the bigger side compared to other flavors. Please contact help@drinkctrl.com if there does appear to be an issue with this bag, or if you ever have any questions or concerns.

Not worth it

The apple cereal flavor was good. My shaker cup came broken and leaks. I contacted support twice and they asked for pictures. I sent them and have been completely ghosted. At the price point, it's not worth the risk of getting something broken and getting ghosted.

Disastrous Mess!

All of the protein bars were melted. The cookies were all crumbled and the drink mixes had torn open and were all over the inside of the box. Don’t think I will order again.

Amazing for the price and convenience

I was honestly not expecting this to be as amazing as it was. i was expecting it to be rather chally and very protien shake like, and it was quite the opposite, the flavor is very rich and it is extremely filling. cannot reccomend enough

Terrible Customer Support

They shipped my order to the wrong address. When ordering I miskicked the autofill. I attempted to correct this error with customer support immediately after placing the order. Customer support said they would fix this several times and never did. Even after a full month their system still has the wrong address. Do not trust them with your money.

Great taste and service

I have tried most of the flavors. Cinnamon toast and paradise potion are by far my favorite. I usually get my order within a day or two after ordering and it keeps me going. This is all I eat in the morning and keeps me going until I eat lunch in the late afternoon

Clumps and chunks

I bought the Paradise Potion flavor. The taste is good, but the drink is always clumpy. I have tried mixing in multiple different ways. I have tried powder first then milk, milk then powder, mix by shaking, mix with a blender. I still have chunks and some chewy bits in the drink.

Hey Keith, thank you so much for your feedback on our new Paradise Potion flavor. I wanted to mention that there are real coconut flakes in this flavor that will not break up even with a blender ball. It is worth mentioning each shake should be made in a shaker cup with the blender ball to ensure the optimal drinking experience. Not all flavors have inclusions like this specifically, and please do not hesitate to email help@drinkctrl.com if you have not had a chance to try any other flavors, as we would love to give you a full taste-testing experience! Thank you

I never got my order [was a wrong delivery]

I never got my order. Support hasn't responded. Seems like no recourse.

E: while support wasn't able to help me, it seems like the delivery guy accidentally dropped it off at the wrong building.

Revising my review to 4 stars. I really liked the settled shake, probably the best one so far. The meal bars were not as good.

Experience of something new

I enjoyed the taste of the bar and the 4 single packs that I had ordered through the bundle and I was taking a risk by trying this to see if it could help me loose weight. I'm slightly over weight for a person my size and was looking for something to help me shed some pounds.
