Reckittbenckiser Reviews 55

Lysol clean and fresh multi surface product has been deluded from 5 oz to make a gallon to 21.6 Oz to make a gallon. Packaging looks the same price is more expensive very deceptive. Disappointing from a brand I used to trust.

It took me about 30 minutes, a hobby knife, tweezers, broken fingernails, a magnifying glass and a stomach ache to open the pot, and peel back the ultra sticky label NOT to find out how many to take.
The latter took Google 5 secs ( but it didn't open the lid )
I'll stick to peppermint in future. It's cheaper too.

I use Calgon washing machine tablets to prevent limescale, they don't dissolve at 30 degrees or 40 degrees or 60 degrees and leave residue on the laundry and when it's white bedding it looks awful. They are not cheap either.

On the tv they are regularly advertising gaviscon double action tablets a fantastic treatment for acid reflux. As we were going away I bought some at the airport at a cost of nearly £15. We only take a small bag so I couldn’t purchase the liquid. What a waste of money and I struggled without the gaviscon liquid. They are supposed to be chewable yet all they do is stick to your teeth and are more like a chalk sweet but it says chew not suck I have tried to email the manufacturer to no avail as the link doesn’t seem to exist. This is the worst product I have ever purchased. The advert is on constantly and just annoys me as they are not what I envisaged.

We are on the verge of initiating a class action lawsuit against the company. They market a product named Fybogel, which alarmingly contains Polysorbate 80 - a substance known to be toxic and unfit for human consumption. The inclusion of this toxin is particularly sinister given Fybogel’s intended use.

Polysorbate 80 is known to cause increased gut permeability, leading to the breakdown of the intestinal barrier, serious damage to the mucus barrier in the intestine, leading to increased permeability, also known as “leaky gut.” This condition allows bacteria and toxins to pass through the intestinal wall, leading to inflammation and even death. In paralell, the destruction of intestinal microbiota, altering the composition in a way that compounds gut inflammation and associated disease states. Such alteration leads to dysbiosis, implicated in chronic inflammatory diseases such as metabolic syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

But it gets worse! A study based on 92,000 French adults found that high levels of emulsifiers in the diet were associated with a significantly elevated risk of cancer. Another study indicated that emulsifiers could contribute to cardiovascular disease. To name but a couple of the plethora of studies on this biowepon.

This chemical assault is typically associated with biological warfare. Yet, this brazen and overt act aims to secure repeat business from consumers who were misled to believe that the product was designed to promote gut health and provide relief from disease. In a cruel twist of irony, it could be the leading cause of severe and deadly intestinal conditions, achieving the exact opposite of its purported benefits. This perverse irony seems to be a deliberate strategy to exacerbate and perpetuate your condition, thereby ensuring continued dependence on the product under the false belief of its necessity. The product has become increasingly controversial, eliciting intense enthusiasm from its unscrupulous board. Moreover, it includes aspartame, a substance utilized in the food industry as a sweetener and identified as carcinogenic. Not only is aspartame one of the most contentious carcinogenic sweeteners, but the product is also heavily laden with it, exacerbating the potential harm to one’s health.
Packed with artificial flavourings and preservatives, this product stands as a stark contradiction to the very essence of wellness. Crafted by a nefarious conglomerate of profiteers, their sole pursuit of monetary gain is eclipsed only by their apparent hunger for the anguish it inflicts.

Reckitt Benckiser's products in the UK have left much to be desired. I've found their quality inconsistent, their prices unjustifiably high, and their customer service frustratingly unhelpful. Overall, my experiences with this company have been disappointing.

Why is there no update on Fybogel! I need to take this every day for diverticulosis. Been unable to get it on prescription since before Christmas 2023. Absolutely appalling. No reason given. So what am I, and people in the same position, expected to do when it's not available anywhere?

E45 CREAM......... Absolutely disgusting complaints department regarding my purchase of E45 Moisturising Cream. First of all it states on the bottle, no perfumes, no chemicals and very kind to sensitive skin. I beg to differ, my face instantly felt soar and felt a burning sensation, then the next morning my skin was flaking, so please buyer's beware because the Reckit company who deals with the complaints are absolutely disgusting in every sense of the word. Five phone calls and every person I spoke to promised me a reply either by phone or email and yes as you all guessed not one reply of any kind. Pathetic PR skills and us consumers are just swept under the carpet. Bad company, pathetic personnel working for them. Anyone having any issues with this company should write down a review and maybe, just maybe, the CEO may get their backside in gear and get it sorted.

Everything that thay sell is under weight. Ripping us off on a regular basis. Claim it was some other company who sold it.

Mr Sheen new design cap. We have been loyal to this product for many years, however their new nozzle design is unusable. The original press down applicator has been replaced by a plastic moulded spring arrangement; this design requires more force to use and the end result is that I (with RSI) and my wife (with arthritis) cannot use it. As a work-around I decided to remove the poorly designed top to see if I could reinstate the old mechanism. I then found the other issue with the new design, in that the product wells up inside the applicator and is not dispensed. I have informed Reckits of this, together with images of the product building up within the cap, and hope that they will redesign the cap, or better still continue to offer the older and more usable design. As a workaround it is possible to remove the cap, extract the white nozzle, and insert it back on to the can without the red plastic cap - it may need a bit glue to hold it in place. This seems to be working OK for now.

The worst customer relationship I have ever experienced !
I bought two boxes of the Finish powerball capsules for my dish washer. On the box it states no unwrapping of the tablet BUT you HAVE TO BECAUSE IT IS INSIDE A TINFOIL COVER! I telephoned the company in Mayand was told it was a mistake and they would reimburse me with a voucher. I have phoned at least three times since and last time was told they are waiting for the vouchers to be printed and would be in touch! NOTHING. three different people have said they would p[hone me back, though I don't know what for. Why won't they reimburse me as it's their false statement on the box. I would never have bought them if I knew I would have to unwrap every time, as it crumbles the tablet. It is their mistake. I have the two boxes with ALL the wrappings inside. Terrible, heartless company.

I have been using Calgon for the past 18 months hope that it would clean my washing machine. I have recently had an engineer out and he has told me that using Calgon won't make a tiny difference. I then wrote a complaint to reckitt and their response was that Calgon should be used on new machines as it won't remove any old limescales on older machines. How come that is not specified in their adverts. They just want customers to waste their money so they can make more profits.

We bought Finish Powerball tablets for the dishwasher. They contain a string blue dye which can leak from the sachets. If you get this on your hands and then touch things in the kitchen it’s impossible to remove so we now have stains in surfaces in the kitchen. Not what I expected from a dishwasher tablet! The worst bit is that it’s almost impossible to inform this company about the fault in their product! No email address! The website link doesn’t work ! Very poor!

Please do not buy Vanish from this company. It’s bleached my childrens clothes that hold sentimental value. It’s a faulty batch and they are not accepting any responsibility.

The site forced me to give a star rating- I wouldn't actually have given them one at all.
Finish Quantum tablets combined with a "Care" tablet damaged my cutlery and, after chasing them up, I was offered a voucher to buy more of the same which I rejected. I asked for the matter to be escalated and have tried several times since then to contact the company but I get no response.
Last week I wrote to the CEO to complain about the abysmal customer service. let alone the lousy product. I pointed out their mission statement which is to put consumers and people first, but that's obviously untrue.

I recently purchased Finish powerball Quantum ultimate dishwasher tablets after reading good reviews and changed from my regular Fairy ones. These do not totally dissolve even at the highest temperatures and longest cycles. I complained to Finish at their customer service site and was basically fobbed off by telling me how best to use my dishwasher!!!!! I explained that there must be an issue with solubility but this fell on deaf ears! I am very angry after spending £20 and have decided to boycott Finish in favour of Fairy tabs as they are way more superior. 0/10 to Finish I’m afraid on all levels

They advertise LIES

My wife had a 500g tub of E45 cream the plunger stopped working when it was still half full I messaged them back in early July and a dept came back to me saying that they had passed the message on with my email address.
I am not complaining about the product,but the way they treat customers with a lack of courtesy not even bothering to respond.

Do not work for this company they are cold and heartless they only care about themselves and money not their staff and their health and wellbeing! They say they care and want to help but they just lie. I worked for Fisco and wish I never did now!!

I had a faulty tin of vanish and the product caused staining to my carpet. I complained and was asked to return the product which was clearly faulty as it was not a foam as it should have been. I was then informed that there was nothing wrong with the product and it was my own fault for not doing a test patch. As I have been using this product for years on my carpet I didn’t think it was necessary to constantly repeat test as i had had great success with it before. They denied there was anything wrong with the product, which was a blatant lie and just offered me vouchers as a goodwill gesture. I asked for the product to be returned to me but they just ignored my request, disgraceful customer service!
