We bought 2 different bottles of Freshways milk from different convenience stores in the last week. Both had 4 or 5 days until the expiry date. The first smelt odd immediately on opening and tasted... See more

I go along with all the other reviews
I go along with all the other reviews. The milk never lasts until it's sell by date and even when I've just bought it, it doesn't taste right. So no more-ever again
It's fine?
I bought the 1-litre semi-skimmed version from my local shop in Camden, London. The seal was intact, and no visible signs of curdling. I initially thought it had quite a rich smell, which concerned me after reading some of the reviews. However, I compared it with a bottle of Waitrose semi-skimmed milk that I had that was new and they smelled very similar to be honest. We’ve used it and haven’t noticed any issues so far.
We use a lot of milk so a bottle never lasts long at home.
Consecutive 2 x 2 pint bottles badly off.
My last 2 x 2 pint bottles of Freshways whole milk have both been badly off in advance of the use by date. The first, bought 19th Oct sell by 26th was already off this morning 21st.
I bought a replacement this morning with sell by 24th and it is already curdling upon opening.
This is not the first time. I like to support our local corner shop who sell Freshways but when 2 consecutive bottles are so badly off I will have no alternative but buy from a different producer.
Goes off frequently
⁰Local store stopped selling Totally Welsh, and changed to Freshways. Was buying Semi skimmed but it would go off up to 3 days before use by date. Fridge is on no3 so nice and cold. I'm throwing out more milk than using. I now won't buy it. I've heard other customers in the same store complaining. So there is a problem somewhere.
Would give zero but not available
Would give zero but not available. Always goes off several days before the use by date. I thought it was a problem with my look shop until I looked up the brand and saw others experienced the same problem.
Consistently curdled at the point of buying
Has often been off at the point of buying it, and almost always goes off within the date. Something fishy is going on here due to it being consistently bad. I'm surprised food standards have not been in touch.
Milk like cottage cheese
Always spoils I thought it was my fridge nope it's the absolute garbage they sell
Tried to call them they wasn't interested. This is an Indian firm apparently nijja dairy il never buy anything related to that again id rather drink soy than that muck spoil before bbd. Bad .don't bother
0.11111 star rating not available
0.11111 star rating not available. The milk always goes off within the date. It’s absolute trash. Least it’s labelled so I know when to avoid going forward. Scumbags
Worst milk you can buy
Worst milk you can buy! We also get it delivered to my work and it smells off everytime. Goes off 6-7 days before its best before date

The milk goes off days before it's ment to, and it don't matter what shop you buy it from. Avoid if you can,
Please guys be careful I my coffee…
Please guys be careful I my coffee tasted a little funny but I thought it may have been me as the date on the milk had 4 days left on it! Although I only drank half and poured the milk down the sink I was so sick for 24 hours! Never again will I take the chance!
Twice now purchased freshways milk…
Twice now purchased freshways milk showing in date only to get home to find it's gone off .Emailed company who attitude is as disgusting as their milk THEY DONT REPLY.
Looking at all the reviews it's clear this company has been issues with freshness ironic as they call themselves FRESHWAYS
Last 2 lots of freshways milk from my…
Last 2 lots of freshways milk from my local store has gone off several days before the expiry date
Off milk before it’s even opened.
Two of my local shops stock this brand, and for several weeks we find that it goes off days before the expiry date. On two occasions the foil seal inside the lid was loose and the milk was off as soon as we opened it for the first time. Something is going wrong with this company. Don’t buy their milk.
Goes off before use by date
My local shop stock this milk brand. 80% of the time this milk is off on arrival from the shop or goes off days before the use by date. Not sure what going on here but this doesn’t happen with other brands of milk.
Not so Freshways.
My local corner shop stock it and again despite previous problems I needed milk quickly. Again this morning with the expiry date 01/07/26 its sour and thickening.
Rubbish company
The last 6 bottles of milk have all gone bad way before the date, I can no longer trust the milk brand, and won't be using it again, I'll be swapping to Waitrose Organic.
What a way to run a business
Looking at the ratings its obvious that Freshways as a 'family business' don't give a damn about their customers, what a way to run a company!!
Tried to open an account via online form, no response, contacted them by phone 3 times with an average 40 min wait time to get connected to progress the application, got lots of promises but zero action, gave up and went to a competitor...can't see them lasting much longer with such a poor regard for customer service and the systemic failures going on.
Dreadful milk
Dreadful milk. I’m sure it has some form of powder in it? It definitely is NOT British milk!
Tastes awful
