Delivery delayed

Delivery delayed and had to be reordered. Pretty sure this is not a Cheesegeek issue more a DHL problem. Still awaiting order, now expected tomorrow 14th January.

Hi Mr Jennings,

We’re really sorry for the experience you’ve had - this certainly isn’t the level of service we aim to provide.

Your original delivery was delayed beyond our usual timeframe, and while we arranged for a fresh replacement to be sent, we’ve since identified an internal processing error that meant the replacement was scheduled incorrectly. We completely understand how frustrating this must be.

We’re already in touch with you directly to put this right, including a partial refund and complimentary items with your rescheduled delivery, which is now due to arrive on 16th January.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention - we really do appreciate the feedback, and we’re very sorry again for the inconvenience caused.

Fine cheese, delivery issue.

I placed two orders as gifts. One arrived as expected, but DHL didn't manage to deliver the second, failing to find the post-office registered address. Cheesegeek stepped in and promptly sent some fresh cheeses, and refunded me for the charcuterie section of the order (out of stock), so my recipient didn't quite receive all that they might have expected. Generally happy with Cheesegeek but unimpressed with DHL.

Hi James,

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review - we really appreciate it!

We’re glad you felt we handled the delivery issues well and that you were happy with the service, though we’re really disappointed the courier let us down on this occasion and that we didn’t have the charcuterie in stock.

We completely understand your frustration with the courier, and feedback like this helps us continue working closely with our delivery partners to improve reliability.

Thanks again for choosing cheesegeek, and for trusting us with your gifts - we hope to see you again for a smoother experience in the future!

A Delightful Christmas Present

I received as a Christmas present a gift subscription to CheeseGeeks. I had a couple of questions and a request (no goats cheese - I'm allergic) and sent them a couple of emails which were responded to promptly (thanks Jen in Customer Services). Yesterday I received my first cheese box and it was delicious! The cheese was well packed with an ice bag and in addition they provide a booklet giving a brief background on each cheese provided. There is also a recommendation as to what best to drink / consume with the cheese which was very welcome. If the remaining cheese boxes are as good as this one was I may well look to continue my subscription after my gift expires.

Hi Rachel,

Thank you for letting us know, and we’re really sorry about the mix-up with the messages - especially as these were gifts.

We’re glad to hear the cheese was enjoyed, but we completely understand how frustrating it must have been not knowing who they were from.

This isn’t what we’d expect from our service, and we’ll be in touch with you directly to sort this out properly. Thanks again for flagging it with us!

Hi Margaret,

We love that - cheese debates are very much encouraged in our book! 🧀

We’re so pleased our cheesebox could be part of your Christmas Eve celebrations, and that the tasting notes sparked a few agreements (and disagreements!).

Thanks so much for letting us be part of the festivities.
