Found some chili sauce I'd been looking for at a great price so ordered a case along with a few sweet treats and some electric salt and pepper mills (didn't need them, but the price was decent).... See more

Great range of Gluten free products

Great range of Gluten free products, suddenly needed for a newly diagnosed member of the family. All goods arrive well protected and packaged and I like the variety on offer.

Poor service, no delivery and refund hassle

I have made half a dozen orders but two have not arrived. Today is the second time, I have waited 2 weeks, poor correspondence from them and they agreed a refund today as the delivery appears to be lost in transit. Don't think I will be ordering again, not worth the hassle!

What a joke

What a joke! After having placed an order more than 10 days ago, i still hadn't received an email about its dispatch. I contacted customer service and was told the order must have been lost by royal mail. Nonsense! Where's the tracking number? Where's the dispatch notification email? It's an absolute joke!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. It is such a shame that you have had a negative experience while ordering with us, and we sincerely apologise that your order was lost in transit. 📦

We understand that this can be inconvenient, and frustrating to not have a concrete explanation of what happened to cause it. We assure you that if the customer service team has taken a look for you, they will have looked at all of this information before coming to that conclusion. 🔎 We apologise that you did not receive it yourself through communication both from us and the courier and appreciate the feedback alerting us of this issue! 💚

This is my second review in some 14 days. First review's order ended in no goods as Royal Mail apparently smashed it all.
The second order I thought I would pay extra for the DPD service. That failed too. Another order smashed up in transit? You could not write this in a book a?
So again I have nothing to show but stress lines.
I now have my money back today but that is it. I give up, give in, surrender or whatever else. I'm done and never coming back!!

Friendly, helpful People

They just seem to be nice friendly people. Website very clear, and some 'Helps' to find Items, e.g. 'By Larder'. They did send all that I asked for. The Items, e.g. Mars Bars; Galaxy; twix; etc., that had short Eat by Dates, I just put in the Freezer - I've done that in the Past with no problems. I can't really do it with the Fizzy Drinks though. Those that I and my daughter cannot Drink by those Dates, I'll just have to take a chance and drink them anyway. 1 small Negative (not with them) I was annoyed with Parcel Force when they came. They took it all (2 Cartons Full) away again, t was a Friday, so they didn't re-deliver it until the following Monday. They could VERY EASILY have left them with my 4 Neighbours, literally all within a maximum of 20 feet, with one right next Door. I've now typed up a Note, Laminated it, and Blu-Tacked it to my Front Door.

We are so sorry to hear that your order got lost 😢 This is not the experience we wish for our customers to have, but unfortunately it is not something we can prevent completely, no matter how much we wish we could. In cases where this happens, we issue a refund due to our changing stock levels, as we are not able to duplicate a whole order. 📦 We understand that this can be frustrating, but we do so in the hope that you can order what is still available or find suitable alternatives for what is not 💚 We hope that you are able to find the products you wanted, either with us or an alternative retailer, and truly appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. ✨

Brilliant 😊

I am so glad I found this !
I received my parcel super quick and it was filled with lots of my favourite snacks at amazing prices.
I love snacks and being vegan I usually pay premium prices. These prices are amazing .
Some of the goods were past best before date but still tasted great .
Can’t wait to order more .

Most items were expired and I raised a ticket with pay pal and still no reply from motatos. This site need to be made to close they should not be selling expired products to get peoples money . Please don’t buy before checking expiry dates . To motatos it’s away of making money out of innocent people

Hi there!
An expired best before date does not mean that the product is old in any way. 🙌
A best before date is simply a label that acts as a guarantee from the producer that the product is of exactly the same quality as when it was manufactured. 🗓
It does not mean that the food will be unfit for consumption afterwards. In fact, food can keep for weeks, months and even years after the best before date has passed.

How awesome is that? 🤩

If you have received products that really don't taste or look good, please send us a message to hello@customerservice.motatos.co.uk with a description of the issue and we will help you as soon as we can. 💚
