“Straightforward ordering online and verification of prescription. Prompt response re despatch - really good service. Not yet delivered as only ordered today, but all good so far”

“Direct4pet: A Cat-astrophe of Customer Service - 1 Star Avoid Direct4pet like the plague, unless you have a high tolerance for frustration and disappointment and dealing with bureaucratic nightmares. My recent experience with them was an absolute ordeal, leaving my cat hungry and me beyond frustrated. The Problem: My order arrived with a ripped open bag of cat food, clumsily patched up with branded Direct4pet tape. Not only was it useless, but it also raised serious concerns about the food's freshness and potential contamination, not to mention screaming "lax quality control" with its haphazard tape job. This felt more like a desperate cover-up than a responsible solution.This is unacceptable for any food, let alone the allergy management dry cat food my beloved feline depends on. The Runaround: Instead of a prompt replacement or refund, Direct4pet made me jump through hoops. Their "solution" involved returning the damaged bag (leaving my cat with no food for potentially 5 days) and filling out unnecessary paperwork. My concerns about this absurd wait time and additional burden were met with nothing but apologies and further bureaucracy. Eventually Rectified, But Too Late: After much back-and-forth, they finally agreed to expedite a replacement, arriving one day later than promised. My cat's food supply ran out two days before that, meaning she went hungry thanks to Direct4pet's incompetence. The Bottom Line: While they eventually rectified the issue, the entire process was a stressful and time-consuming mess. Their complete lack of urgency and apparent disregard for my pet's well-being were downright shocking. This wasn't just a mistake; it was a slap in the face to a loyal customer with multiple previous orders. Never Again: Direct4pet has lost my trust completely. Their shoddy packaging, abysmal customer service, and disregard for their customers' needs are enough to send anyone running for the hills. Do yourself and your pets a favour and look elsewhere for your pet food needs. There are plenty of reliable and customer-focused options out there that won't leave you scrambling to avoid feline famine.”

“It was horrendous. I'm leaving a review before even receiving the items because the experinece was so bad. Your force customers to create an account in order for them to check out and the beforw they can check out your bombard them with pages upon pages of add of your discounted item. I was forced to view 10 pages before I could finally check out. Horrendous, cheeky, and damn right shocking.”

“It was really simple to find the dry cat food I needed and very quick to order using Apple Pay. The lead time from placing the order to dispatch was also pretty impressive. Competitively priced too. First time I’ve used this website and not at all disappointed .”

“Appalling! Charged my credit card without my permission and despite multiple attempts since the 28th of December. It's impossible to speak to anyone as the phone line doesn't connect and just receive the same generic message thanking me for my order which I have tried to cancel for over 1 week, it's now apparently been sent to an address I no longer live at and "taken by a neighbour". Will never ever use or recommend this company to anyone! SHOCKING!!!”

“The website was easy to use, the product much cheaper than from our local vet and as our dog will be needing this for the rest of their life then it soon adds up, delivered the next day, box was slightly squashed but contents were fine. Will order again.”
