Reviews of Planet Organic split sharply. Many customers praise fast delivery, quick replacements, and helpful staff in stores. Others describe rude employees, cancelled or late orders, and refund or refund-charge errors. Several buyers also say they received mislabelled or incorrect products.
Examples from available reviews (Jun 2017 – Mar 2026).
Product mislabelled as gluten-free and refund process resulted in incorrect charge.
“bought a cake from a shelf labelled 'gluten free”
Order delivered quickly and reviewer was very happy with products.
“the delivery was fast”
Reviewer experienced rude, apathetic staff at Hampstead store and will not return.
“apathetic rude man on till”
Orders cancelled after payment with delayed refunds; reviewer calls them scammers.
“they allow you to order on line items that are out of stock”
Service feedback falls into two camps: smooth, fast fulfilment versus poor behaviour in stores. Several reviews mention cancelled online orders, wrong items, or high delivery fees. Many others describe friendly staff, sometimes naming employees who fixed problems quickly.
Price complaints come up often, with customers pointing to high shelf prices and refill services that cost more than other options. A smaller group mentions good deals and fair prices on basics. A few reviewers say they keep shopping there to support a local organic retailer despite the cost.
Multiple reviews say online ordering feels easy, and packaging keeps deliveries secure. A small number mention problems with the app and loyalty-card support. Some also report dispatch delays after placing an order, which disrupts the flow.
Several customers report mislabelled products or incorrect ingredients, including items marked gluten-free or sold as 'cacao' that did not match. Others praise the quality of the organic products and say they are happy with the selection. Spoiled or damaged produce appears now and then.
Some customers describe clear, quick updates and proactive offers of refunds or replacements. Others say support did not respond, promotional items were missing, or management made follow-up calls that felt unsettling. How communication goes often decides whether a bad experience gets fixed.
Overall experiences are highly polarised: efficient service and helpful staff for some, but rude employees, delivery mistakes, and refund problems for others. Complaints often focus on how issues are handled after purchase, not just what is in stock.
For each review, the core experience based on original source reviews.

I recently had the pleasure of shopping with Planet Organic and was thoroughly impressed by their commitment to providing high-quality organic products. From the moment I arrived on their website, it was clear that they take great care in selecting only the very best items for their customers.
Navigating through their extensive inventory of food, drink, health, and beauty products was a breeze thanks to convenient search features and intuitive categorization. Not only did they offer an impressive selection of well-known brands, but also introduced me to many new brands I had never heard of before.
One standout feature is how Planet Organic sources its products only from trusted suppliers who share similar values as themselves which ensures authenticity regarding quality standards. Another thing that stood out about Planet Organic's service is robust and flexible too so there are plenty of options available based on one's lifestyle priorities or desired delivery schedule.
Overall my experience with Planet Organic has been nothing short of fantastic; every product purchased from them has lived up to my expectations and exceeded standard supermarket alternative versions' taste testing criteria significantly! The seamless online purchase journey allowed easy tracking while waiting for my order deliveries each time.Their website provided useful advice resources regarding healthy eating practices hence making it more than just a shopping platform but also an educational hub as well!
