Another company now tanked and left customers hanging with unused loyalty points. The program is scrapped and all those points and coupons down the toilet. Company wants you to be loyal to them but does not reciprocate.

I bought a lipstick from Body Shop 2 months ago. It has active fungus growing on it. This is the first time I have seen something like this. And they refuse to compensate me. I am very disappointed

Life-Saver for Sore Hands: The Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream Review I recently stumbled upon a miraculous solution for my sore, bleeding, and chapped hands: The Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream. After just two weeks of consistent use, this cream worked wonders, healing and clearing up my hands in a way I never thought possible. Before discovering this product, my hands were in terrible condition – sore, bleeding, chapped, and overly sensitive. I wore gloves all the time as I was very embarrassed for people to see my hands in the state they were in. I would never shake hands with anyone knowing the person could see, feel and touch them. I had tried numerous hand creams and remedies, but nothing seemed to provide lasting relief until I found The Body Shop's Hemp Hand Cream. From the moment I applied it, I could feel the soothing effects of the cream sinking into my skin. Its rich, nourishing formula instantly provided relief, calming the irritation and discomfort. I was amazed at how quickly it began to work its magic. After just a few days of use, I started to notice significant improvements. The redness and inflammation began to subside, and the cracks and dry patches gradually healed. By the end of the second week, my hands were completely transformed – smooth, soft, and healthy-looking. I can'temphasise enough how much of a difference this hand cream has made in my life. Not only has it restored my hands to their former glory, but it has also given me back my confidence. I no longer have to hide my hands or suffer through the pain and discomfort. I wholeheartedly recommend The Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream to anyone dealing with similar hand issues. Its effectiveness speaks for itself, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Say goodbye to sore, chapped hands – this product is truly a game-changer! Overall, The Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream gets a resounding five-star rating from me. Thank you, Body Shop, for creating such an incredible product that has truly changed my life for the better. I wore gloves all the time as I was so embarrassed for people go see my skin/hands. After using Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream I finally have the confidence to no longer wear gloves. I have uploaded some before and after photos.

I can’t believe how this company has changed from what it was in the 80s & 90s. The biggest mistake you ever made was changing the White Musk Perfume Oil, your BIGGEST seller. When I try and contact customer service about it, they are rude, uninformed and dismissive. You claim you changed it because people complained about Parabens, well so? I don’t go to a steak house if I’m a vegetarian and complain about them serving meat. If you don’t want parabens, DONT BUY THE PERFUME. but you took it from all the rest of us and replaced it with some bug spray acidic product that is DISGUSTING. no wonder you’ré going out of business.

ABSOLUTELY the WORST website EVER. customer service is equally as bad. Try to 'login' is like trying to get into heaven.....a NIGHTMARE. The freebies have not been available for ever. I buy (bought) often on the outlet page, bc I pass out at homeless shelters for women. Once again the webpage is 'down' again. Ill have to look at bath and body and do my own bags, or molton brown. I've been a body shop customer since 1998....but time to move on.

So I have been buying the Hemp heavy duty moisturizer for years. Not only is it no longer available on their website but they sell something that looks just like it purposely to trick customers. I used to buy a 6.7 oz tub for about $20. Now they have a small tub that looks exactly the same in their advertising as the large tub for about $20. You think you are buying the product you always purchased but when it shows up its ONLY 1.7 0z! SO THEY F**K YOU OUT OF 5 oz of PRODUCT!!!!! Total scumbag move!!

I have repeated visits to Body Shop at Causeway Point & North Point to purchase a range of Vegan shampoo. these products are of high quality & effective. Prices are reasonable and they have refillable using recycled bottles. Staff are courteous & provides excellent service. Always love products in The Body Shop.

The Body Shop online website took my order, took my money, then failed to deliver after they had emailed me to say the item had been shipped. No communication, failed to respond to emails (the only way I could contact them as Chat was not working), eventually was able to contact them via Chat to find out where my order was. 'It's not in stock' was their response. 'But it was in stock when I ordered it, you took my money, and then told me it had been shipped', I said. 'Ah, sorry for any convenience, do you want your money back - that will take up to 5 days' was all I got back. Basically left me 2 days to get some kind of replacement gift, so no chance of ordering anything online, cost me a few hours in trying to get something from the shops. If I hadn't made the effort to contact them (which they did not make easy), I would probably still be waiting for some communication from them. Shocking customer experience - be warned about ordering anything for Christmas from them. Not only is there a good chance that they'll fail to deliver. They'll also not communicate this to you and leave you to do all the chasing. If you really want to order anything from The Body Shop you need to physically visit the store. If you can't do this, then I would suggest ordering from somewhere else to avoid a lot of wasted time and money.

Wallys body shop in Savannah Georgia does good work,, but their communication skills and their policy of ordering parts only win supplements from insurance companies and everything else have been submitted delay work up to 4 to 6 weeks. Not a good fit if you want your car back quickly. Their communication skills are lacking. They do not inform you when there is an issue or problem so that you can assist in getting it resolved. Also timelines that they give you are not dependable the repair ahead. I’m down in my car cost me an additional $2000 in rental fees, when the additional parts for the car would have been less than $300. The lack of communication and willingness to work with the rest. Cost the customer additional money when it truly is not necessary. They do good work. I am very satisfied with the outcome of the car, but there’s no reason why I did not have the car back sooner and due to the fact that they delayed repairs, it cost me additional funding the car was drivable when I deposited the appointment that they set, but it took close to a month and a half to get it back

I just wanted to say after using white musk oil for over 40 years l am very disappointed in what u sell now. Doesn't smell for long at all, the applicator is a ridiculous design and cost more. I will not be buying this rubbish ever again. Plus sales person had no idea.

I have been buying Body Shop soap bars for the last 25 years. I mostly buy the grapefruit, strawberry and mango bars. The last few times I have bought the bars, I have been extremely disappointed with the new shape, smell and consistency of the soap bars. They are now square bars versus the rounded shape. They also do not smell the same nor do they feel the same. I have decided against buying these soap bars any more. This is very disappointing as I had become very comfortable with the soap products over the past 25 years. It is very sad that the Body Shop felt they had to change this product so drastically.

I placed this order on Early morning Thursday around 3 am I was supposed to receive this order on Friday but I never did. I had a chat with one of your colleagues who assured me that I will receive this package before the end of the day Friday. I never received it. I had a flight early morning today and this was supposed to be a gift for my mother. I have left the country now so there’s no need to send this order anymore. I promise you I will never look in your direction anymore as you guys have lied to me twice. I m embarrassed that I didn’t get my mother her gift and it’s all because I believed in you. It really is a shame that business like yours exist. I will make sure that neither me or anyone I know does any business with you guys as you are very unreliable and are bunch of liars. Please give me my money back and expect this message to land on your Google reviews or any place where people rate you. Really shame on you guys

Horrible experience ordering some stuff online. Five days after I ordered, no evidence of anything being shipped, no notification. Then I insisted on canceling the order via their chat. That person promised to do that and email me. Nothing. Today (day 6) I see online that finally "a label has been created", obviously because I asked to cancel. No update on delivery. No email. I don't want their stuff any more but I seem not to be able to cancel. NEVER AGAIN.

My friend visited the Exeter branch of The Bodyshop and left in tears due to how they were treated by staff and their manager. There was no compassion shown to try and help with my friends autism. Due to the staff interactions my friend became non-verbal. No effort was made to address my friends needs and they were made to feel so uncomfortable that they had to leave in tears. I never normally leave reviews but their conduct has moved me to do so. And want to raise this feedback so that others don't have to go through the same treatment. Bad customer service by any measure, but it is even more important that they should have the training to be able to provide appropriate service to those with conditions such as autism.
