Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 215 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the customer service team for their efficiency, helpfulness, and remarkably quick response times when addressing concerns. Reviewers frequently highlight the excellent communication and the personalized approach, making many people feel genuinely valued and listened to by the company. This dedication to service is often cited as a key strength.

Additionally, a few other people also felt that the teabags themselves were prone to splitting or were not properly sealed, causing inconvenience.

Fast and Satisfactory Response

Fast and Satisfactory Response
I recently experienced a problem with a Yorkshire Tea product. I would like to point out that I have been using this product for over 20 years without any problems, which goes to show the usual high quality of their products.
On this one occasion I contacted Customer Services and explained my problem and they contacted me back within a couple of hours offering an explanation and solution to fix my problem.
Thank you very much Yorkshire Tea.

Quality of product has clearly changed

As a long term customer, I have noticed a variance in quality over several months. Some of the batches have a perfume type taste and bags split open. This is a fact. My wife drinks a rival product. I have been complaining all week and we thought the milk, sweeteners or the water were to blame. She tasted mine and told me to throw it away. I am not a fan of her tea, but having made a fresh cup, I could taste the difference.

I want Yorkshire Tea back as it has always been. Not some imitation with cheaper bags or clever formula changes to save money. It's a premium product in the first place & without positive intervention it won't end well. I am sure polite customer service and a free box will impress some, but actions speak louder than words. We want our tea back!

I have always been drinking this tea

I have always been drinking this tea, since last few days I have experienced really bland taste of tea with very less strength.
I have changed the milk and quantity of milk but no matter what, this doesn’t affect the taste of tea. Could we please get the batch with strong strength of tea please

Hi Raja, thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we're so sorry to hear your Yorkshire Tea brews haven't tasted quite right recently. If there’s ever a specific box you’re unhappy with, we’d really like to hear about it so we can pass the details to our Quality Assurance team. Our customer services team can look into this for you, plus just drop us a note at hello@yorkshiretea.co.uk. It would be helpful if you could include the blend, the box size, the best before date, and the production details printed on the base of the pack.

Tea bags – extremely low quality

I decided to write this review after yet another YT tea bag split open when I was trying to separate two tea bags stitched together (which is the usual format for the tea bags I buy). The quality of the tea bags is so bad that this happens maybe every tenth time I do this (and that's being generous). So I have to wash my table, mug (sometimes the floor too) and throw another wasted tea bad into the bin... After today, I threw them all into the bin and I'm getting some different tea brand tomorrow.

Disappointing quality

For the last few months we have noticed that Yorkshire Tea is not as good now as it was, the brew is not very tasteful and always pale in colour, we have decided that when this box is empty we will go back to P G Tips

Superb tea - superb customer care.

My wife and I enjoy Yorkshire's Gold.
I contacted them on a small packaging concern.
I received a prompt receipt. I received a considered reply very quickly, which answered my concern completely.
Yorkshire/Taylor demonstrated a standard of customer care to which all companies and organisations should aspire. Congratulations.

Excellent customer service experience

Having sent an email to customer services regarding an issue with split teabags I have been impressed with this team. My issue was addressed quickly, I received a detailed explanation as to the likely cause, an apology and a reassurance that the details of the batch would be fed back to the team. I could not ask for more.
A replacement product was sent out as compensation.
Its never nice to raise an issue but to have such a response made me feel that I was listened to.
Thanks Bronte
