Expired Products - AVOID!

Quite possibly the worst customer service i have ever experienced.

I received an expired product in my order, which i confirmed with the brand before contacting 'Jess' via the live chat. She advised she would send me a label to return the product, this was a month ago and I have still not received the label. I've since reached out on live chat 6 times and have just received the automated message each time. I have also sent an email around 10 days ago - again no reply as of yet.

This is my third and final order from this company, products are just chucked in a box, no nice packing, nothing protecting them from damage. They seem to not care at all about the quality of the products they are selling.

I gave 1 star as I can't give 0

I gave 1 star as I can't give 0. I have subscribed to this box for years and this year they refused to send me my March box and maintained that they had sent in (in Feb); what they actually sent me was a free gift in a separate box. I have had to get a chargeback through my credit card. It took weeks to get any response from Mintd JESS - and when I did I was accused of my lying and everytime they "look into it" they give me a different answer but never offer to provide me what I paid for. My subscription renewed today (at the old price) and guess what? Within 7 minutes, 7 minutes Jess cancelled my order. When I contacted her she sent me an out of office message. This company has a problem - used to be so good. What is going on???!!
Oh AND they owe me £60 unused rewards credit - the codes didn't work and they never answered my queries despite me asking repeatedly. Totally ripped off!! AVOID THEM.

I’m leaving another review it’s so bad!

I’m leaving another review as this company really needs to address its behaviour. They claim they have a cancellation policy which works yet I cancelled months ago but they continue to take £90 a month. Each month, I email asking for my money back. They eventually refund but don’t even bother to reply to the emails. Tonight they’ve taken another £90. It’s a scam. They show my subscription as active when it isn’t. Makes them look more successful than they are. I have no way of stopping them taking £90 every month other than cancelling my bank card. AVOID AVOID AVOID

aware

I placed an order on 4 January. On 7 January, I emailed to ask whether everything was okay with my order, but I didn’t receive a response. On 9 January, I contacted support via the website chat and was told that my order would be shipped that day. Unfortunately, it wasn’t.

On 12 January, I tried contacting support again via chat, as it seems emails aren’t being answered at all. Throughout the day, I only received automated template responses saying someone would get back to me shortly.

I understand that shipping delays can happen, but customers should be informed. Emails and messages should be answered rather than ignored. At this point, for me it looks like a scam.

Poor customer service

I concur with the negative comments about the non existent customer service and extremely difficult to cancel subscription. I went through this & I also posted negative comment on here. I did get a call from the Owner, who confirmed they would cancel my subscription, but then didn't. Another few weeks went by and I found a way to lodge dispute with my bank. And only then did it get canceled. I even sent more emails to the customer service after the phone call from the owner to no avail.
The boxes are great there is no doubt its good value for money. Great brands in the boxes.
I did read on here the products are dated / expired, I have bought numerous boxes, so I hope not. I've no doubt I was one of their best customers as I've spent thousands.
But getting your subscription cancelled and refund for returned box (unwanted subscription) is near impossible. I sent pictures of the returned item shown at their premises by royal mail, reminder emails.
I don't understand why this company would continue to operate in this way when they're receiving such negative feedback on this forum. I doubt the positive feedback is genuine.

I truly hope they consider changing their approach as their boxes of beauty products are good.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While we are truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed the products and found value in our boxes, we are genuinely sorry for the frustration you experienced regarding your subscription cancellation and communication with our team.

As a small, independent business, we do our best to respond to all customer enquiries within 72 hours. During periods of high demand, replies can unfortunately take longer than we would like, and for this we sincerely apologise. We can confirm that your subscription was cancelled and your refund was processed once the returned box was received back at our premises, in line with our terms and conditions.

We would also like to clearly reassure our customers that all products supplied by Mintd Box are sourced directly from authorised brands and distributors and are always within their valid date ranges. We take product safety and authenticity extremely seriously, and any suggestion otherwise is deeply concerning to us.

We regret that this experience caused disappointment, particularly given your long-standing support as a customer, which we truly valued. Your feedback has been noted, and we are continuously working to improve our systems and communication to ensure a smoother experience for all customers moving forward.

If you would like to discuss this further, our customer care team remains available via email, and we are always happy to assist.

Regards,

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY - SCAMMERS - THEY WILL KEEP CHARGING YOU AGAINST YOUR WILL

BEWARE OF THIS SCAMMY “COMPANY”! Non existent customer service and inability to cancel subscription! Your money will keep being taking even when you ask them to stop.

I am reporting this company to Trading Standards for unfair practice and potential fraud.

I would give no stars if possible. Just look at the other reviews stating the same issue.

I have been contacting Mintd Box since the 13th of October (now 1st of November) as the only way to cancel a subscription with them is via email (should have noticed this red flag in the beginning). I have received no response at all and to avoid getting charged a further £91 against my will I have had to call my bank to place a block on further payments from Mintd Box.

I commented many times on their Facebook trying to get someone to answer me just so I could cancel the subscription and they’ve actually BLOCKED me to avoid the bad press/need to respond. I have in no way been rude, just stressed and worried about continuing to be charged such a large amount of money for something I no longer need.

I would seriously advise people considering subscribing to think about this and only subscribe if you can 100% guarantee this is a subscription and financial commitment you could potentially have forever.

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We are truly sorry to hear about the distress this situation has caused and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few important points.

Firstly, our social media platforms are not operated as official customer service channels, and while we do our best to monitor messages and comments, responses may occasionally be missed. For this reason, all customers are advised in our FAQs to contact us directly via email for any subscription or account-related enquiries so that these matters can be handled securely and efficiently.

We would also like to firmly address the claims regarding our business practices. Mintd Box is not a scam company. This customer successfully placed multiple orders with us previously and received full products and service as expected. We work closely with established brands and operate transparently within our stated policies.

Our subscription cancellation policy is clearly outlined within our FAQs and terms and conditions. Once a valid cancellation request is received and confirmed in line with those terms, subscriptions are promptly stopped. We always aim to resolve customer concerns as quickly and fairly as possible.

We fully understand how stressful subscription issues can feel, especially when payments are involved, and we regret that this situation caused such frustration. We remain committed to improving communication where possible and ensuring all customers feel supported.

For any outstanding issues, our customer care team remains available via email and will continue to assist.

Kind regards,
Mintd Box Customer Care Team

Worst Customer Service Experienced

Nice idea but unfortunately appalling customer service. Lots of things that ruined the experience -
- Sent out a skincare item with 3 months left to use before out of date, with no concession or informing customers. A £60 item unusable now and not had a reply from customer service for over 2 weeks now. Appalling.
- Cancelled subscription and still got charged again for another box (over £200 so quite hefty for an accidental charge)
- Charge £6 for delivery?! That’s more than gift wrapping on most companies and it comes in a plain box and is tracked 48 which is about £3.75. For subscriptions over £100 per time I think they can absorb shipping costs or at least lower them.
Just whole experience is rubbish and will never buy from them again. Can’t believe I haven’t had a reply from customer service about the out of date product.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your recent experience did not meet expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond.

Regarding the product with a shorter expiry date, we would like to clarify that all skincare items included in our boxes are safe to use within the stated period and comply fully with industry safety regulations. Products with shorter remaining shelf life are still entirely usable and effective within the stated time. That said, we recognise that some customers may prefer longer lead times, and we regret if this was not communicated clearly in this instance.

We are also very sorry for any concern caused by the additional subscription charge. If a cancellation request is submitted after a billing cut-off date, a further box may be processed automatically. However, this should always be clearly communicated, and we encourage customers to contact our support team directly so we can investigate and resolve this as quickly as possible.

With regard to delivery costs, our shipping fee reflects tracked and insured delivery to ensure boxes arrive safely. While we understand that customers may compare postage pricing, these charges help us maintain reliable and secure logistics for all orders.

We would also like to note that we are a small team, and while we always aim to respond as quickly as possible, response times can be up to 72 hours during busy periods. We sincerely regret any delay experienced and understand how frustrating this can be.

Customer satisfaction is extremely important to us, and we take all feedback seriously as it helps us to improve. We would welcome the opportunity to look into this matter further and encourage the customer to contact our support team directly so we can review the details and work toward a fair resolution.

Finally, we would like to thank you for placing another order with us despite the concerns raised. We truly appreciate your continued support and the opportunity to restore your confidence in our service.

Regards,
MINTD Box Customer Care Team

Thank you for your message. We are very sorry for the distress and frustration this situation has caused and appreciate the opportunity to clarify how our service operates.

As a subscription-based business, all orders placed through our website enroll customers into a recurring subscription unless cancelled in line with our stated terms. Full details on how to manage and cancel subscriptions are clearly outlined in our FAQs, which are available on our website for reference at all times.

Cancellations must be submitted before the advertised billing cut-off date for the upcoming box. If a cancellation request is received after this deadline, the following box will already be scheduled for processing and shipment automatically. This is standard practice within subscription services.

That said, we fully understand how upsetting unexpected charges can be, and we regret that this situation has caused concern. We would strongly encourage you to contact our customer support team directly with your order details so that we can review your account specifically and determine what resolution may be possible.

We are a small team and aim to respond to all enquiries as quickly as possible; however, response times may take up to 72 hours during busy periods.

Customer satisfaction remains very important to us, and we remain committed to resolving matters fairly and in line with our published policies.

Regards,

I really liked the products and it was…

I really liked the products and it was fun having a nice gift each month but when I cancelled they kept charging me despite many emails from me which they acknowledged . I ended up having to cancel my bank card and STILL months later they email me a couple of times a month to tell me my payment was unsuccessful. Yes I KNOW. Cancelling cards is an absolute pain but I could find no other way round it

Subscribed for a 4 months

Subscribed for a 4 months.
Great products, full sized and not bad for £90 odd quid a month
BUT trying to cancel not great 😠

Went onto the website and trying to cancel the subscription difficult to find. Once i did find the cancel subscription location it would not allow me to cancel. Had to email which i did several times over a few weeks with absolutely no reply to confirm cancellation

In the end i cancelled my shopify subscription instead which meant they couldnt take the cash for the rolling subscription fee

3 star for products. 1 star for cancellation procedure and lack of response from customer service

Appalling customer service

The product is beautiful and really smells like jasmine. It’s moisturing and has doesn’t feel too oily or sticky. I recommend.
However, the reason I’ve given two stars in the appalling customer service from Mintd Box. I haven’t ever bought a product from them and will definitely not again.
I placed the order, which included 6.95GBP, which was expensive but I thought it if it’s going to ship quickly, it will be worth it. Reader, Mintd Box took over 5 days to ship. I emailed twice, checked their delivery page, which just mentions Brexit and Covid-19, and I left a message on their customer service line along with ringing at different times during the day. No response. Then my parcel arrived squashes. Luckily, the product is in a glass bottle, so it was safe.
I appreciate it’s Christmas and it is busier than normal, however, to charge that much for postage and not even put it in a box to ensure it doesn’t get squashed, plus sending it after 5 days, is really taking the mickey. I know how much a small parcel is and 6.95GBP is not it. No response to my voicemail or email.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are pleased to hear that you were happy with the product itself and that you enjoyed its scent and performance. However, we are genuinely sorry to hear that your experience with our service did not meet expectations, particularly during such a busy time of year.

We would like to clarify that our order processing times are clearly outlined in our FAQs and can take several working days, particularly during peak periods such as Christmas, when order volumes are significantly higher. While we always aim to dispatch orders as quickly as possible, short delays can unfortunately occur at these times. We regret any frustration this may have caused.

We would also like to clarify that we no longer operate a customer service phone line, and all enquiries are handled via email to ensure that all communications are properly logged and responded to in order. We apologise if this was not clear at the time you contacted us and for any delay in response.

With regard to delivery, all parcels are shipped via Royal Mail, and once dispatched, handling is unfortunately outside of our direct control. That said, we are very sorry to hear that your parcel arrived squashed in transit. We do our best to package all items securely, particularly glass products, and we apologise if this fell short on this occasion.

We also understand your concerns regarding postage costs. Our delivery fee reflects tracked shipping, packaging materials, and handling, especially during high-demand periods.

Customer feedback is extremely important to us, and we truly regret that this experience has impacted your view of our brand. We thank you again for your honest comments, which we will use to continue improving our service.

Avoid!

Spent £300 on November 25, 2024 and STILL not received my order #11163 ! Have tried contacting Mintd box on every possible platform including telephone and email several times - not once have they answered or responded to me. My money has been taken so this must be a SCAM! Will let my bank know and take it from there. So upset.

Thank you for your message, and we are truly sorry for the worry and distress this situation has caused. We fully understand how upsetting it is to be waiting for an order, particularly when a significant amount has been spent.

We would like to reassure you that we are a legitimate business and all orders placed with us are fulfilled. During our busiest period of the year, particularly around November and the festive season, delivery times can take up to 21 working days due to high volumes and courier delays. While this is outlined prior to purchase, we sincerely apologise if this was not clear or if expectations were not met.

We are also very sorry if you have experienced difficulty reaching our team. We are a small business, and while we aim to respond to all enquiries as quickly as possible, response times can occasionally be delayed during peak periods. We understand how frustrating this can be and truly regret any lack of communication.

We strongly encourage you to contact our support team again with your order number so that we can urgently check the status of your delivery and provide an update as soon as possible. We take claims of non-delivery very seriously and will always investigate fully.

Thank you for your patience, and we truly hope to resolve this matter for you as quickly as possible.

Avoid!

Very disappointed! I’m trying to cancel my subscription and being totally ignored: more than one week of emails, online messages and dm… no answer! And by their policy the only way to do it - by email! So I will be forced to pay next month even if I don’t want to!
They literally don't let me cancel their monthly subscription.

Spent £300 on 19th Sept 2024

Spent £300 on 19th Sept 2024 - paid extra £12.50 for express delivery (only option) 1-3 days and STILL not received my order! Have tried contacting Mintd box on every possible platform including telephone and email several times - not once have they answered or responded to me. My money has been taken so this must be a SCAM! Will let my bank know and take it from there. So upset.

UPDATE: after finally getting in touch , Jess from customer service contacted me via web chat- she dealt with my complaint effectively and efficiently. I have received my order and great value for money- it turned out a product was missing but it was delivered as soon as it came in stock without any chasing. Definitely worth purchasing just needed communication early on as happy to be patient but just need better communication.
