“FROM BEST TO WORST”

Bev S.
2/7/20

This is very sad because Peapod used to be the best delivery service in my area. Slowly customer support became nonexistent and their policies are suspect and what I mean is that when an item is on sale they do not deliver saying it is out of stock even though it is still on their website as in stock. I think they want to substitute with a cheaper item but I don't allow substitutions. You can never reach them by phone and they do not reply to emails. The drivers are nice thus the two stars UPDATED 2/28/2022 Everything is back to normal and things have changed dramatically for the better so all is well that ends well.

My husband, myself and daughter are sick. We ordered 3 times and we're no shows. They lied on us and used a number I changed personally 4 years ago. They've used the right number in the past. I have never wanted people fired before now! No compensation was offered as well. Shame on them!

That's it! I've given him more chances than they deserve!, Last time we sat and waited for 4 1/2 hours for our delivery!, After several calls we find out that someone cancel our order along with four other orders and nobody could give us an answer! Obviously that's why they got a 1.4 star rating should've been -1.4 they're so pathetic! This time they were two hours late of their delivery time they said between 11 AM and 1 PM Sunday the seventh so once again our daily routine has been interrupted by the pathetic service Peapod gives you! What's the census asking for special instructions like his duly noted come to the back door our kitchen is in the back of our house but no once again ring the doorbell and there's a bunch of bags sitting on the front porch, maybe they just can't read? I refused to pay $10 for a lousy delivery service and it's not the $10 they brag about their fantastic door to door delivery but I can't even get the right door multiple times late I just don't understand how they're still in business I'm better off just putting my order in and go pick it up curbside! Constantly misleading on their delivery time even with a three hour window they just still can't get it on time to us, you would think with the multiple complaints they would try to make their company better but instead they're just slipping away every order, it's a shame they cannot provide a good service of just simple delivery!, Maybe it's just me?! ‍‍ And I don't like when they break my cookies! Or the gashed cantaloupe which now has to either be eaten unripened or just thrown away again, well I hope my review is helped other people not waste their time and again I hope I'm not the only one complaining but from the other reviews obviously I'm not! So this is my formal goodbye to Peapod!

All good!!

My order was cancelled for not reaching the minimum cost, BEFORE REACHING THE CUT-OFF TIME. I had planned to add to it but no chance to do that. Of course, I also lost my delivery date and time.

Terrible service. Every order is missing something. If it is available on Website then it should be delivered.

No delivery before a holiday because the driver didn't have GPS? Customer Service Terrible. Horrible

Tip for consumers:
Not dependable if you really need the delivery.
Do not recommend
Customer service was really horrific. Better if I didn’t even call customer service at all.
Company doesn’t stand behind their service.

6 weeks, 5 orders, 5 reservations, 5 reservations disappeared. Only confirmation of a reservation is the banner on the Peapod order page saying date and time range of delivery... it disappeared over and over. Reschedule, have a reservation which shows on the Peapod order page, then it reverts to "Select a time". By that time there are no more reservation slots which are not "sold out" for the next 2 weeks. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY MY RESERVATION WAS LOST AND SOMEONE ELSE GOT A MY RESERVED SLOT. On hold waiting for Corporate half hour, they can't do anything but transfer you to Peapod customer service. Peapod customer service hasn't answered a call in weeks... hear a recording, then the phone hangs up. WHY SHOULD I CARE THAT PEAPOD IS WORKING HARD WHEN I CAN'T GET ANY GROCERIES, DESPITE TRYING OVER AND OVER? I wouldn't care if some things are unavailable. I can't get one thing because despite checking out immediately, the reservation keeps disappearing. Peapod: why don't you stop paying attention to coupons, and saying how hard you're working, and fix the reservation system?

I get a peapod order every month since I got sick and had to stop working. Until my last order almost doubled I didn't realize a couple things until I talked to someone today an employee that doesn't want to be named told me to be aware of. When going through and placing my order I pay attention to sale items and only purchase those items for my family as I'm given an allowance bi-monthly to spend. When I went to input my order I was informed that I used my allowance in the last order but I couldn understand how as my last order was only $6 over the budget. Now when I received that order I was also upset. I ordered 3lbs of grapes on sale for $1.99 I received 3 huge bags of grapes all different brands totalling way over 3lbs. I ordered strawberries they were buy 1 get 2 free. I received 6 different types of berries organic, candy, Driscoll's, bubblegum, regular but 2 different brands. And these were just 2 different wierd things that I received that changed the price of my order drastically at no fault of my own. I also found out today from the employee they've ha alp of complaints because the peapod system doesn't recognize stop and shop sale items when they shop and ring the order out. On top of the fact the raise the prices for shopping his way you think they'd care about the orders and customers. I don't have the option or ability to shop at another store but ivi could I would bad enough the employees don't care what the produce looks like that their putting in your order and I have found it goes bad so much quicker than if I went in and got it myself. If this is how stop and shop and peapod treat customers regularly it's pretty disgusting. At 48 I've shopped at stop and shop my whole life and I love across the street I'm really reconsidering shopping right now. With the cost of food being high as it is my 178$ order ended up being 320$ and that's unacceptable to me.

Tip for consumers:
You only get coupon sales you click on you do not get sale prices per manager

Products used:
Used most except produce or where an overabundance like all the grapes and strawberries receive wenbbad I ordered 3 lbs of grapes and received 3 huge bags.
