Albert Heijn supermarkt User Reviews

Top reviews

Good app but

It would be great if we could change the language to English. Other than that, no complaints ! Everything works, it’s easy to navigate (as easy can be when you don’t speak Dutch 😂)

Would you please add English?

Everything great, would be awesome if I understand what I’m looking at.

Language Barriers

It would really very kind of Albert Heijn, the king of supermarkets in NL to please add english as a language in their app.

English version Needed!

As the largest supermarket in the Netherlands, Albert Heijn should take the lead in creating more user friendly and inclusive APP. English version would definitely benefit a larger population!

Terrible user interface for ordering

We’ve decided to pay for a year of free delivery (€150) which includes “personalized delivery moments”. Well, that essentially means you can order once a week, which is not flexible enough with a family.
However the real terrible part is that the app doesn’t allow you to differentiate a grocery list from an order. Once you decide to order to look at the delivery options, it’s very easy to lose your ordering spot, and have to wait 2 weeks for the next moment.
The only way to get back to your grocery list and its filtering system is to “cancel your order”, which by itself is dumb enough, but then without any communication drops the delivery moment, rendering your €150 cost useless.
The other weird part of this app is that their services are still designed to be used by one person. For families this is really annoying; why can’t my spouse login under the same account as another user, and add or remove grocery items? Why is “sharing grocery list” limited to sending a text/email, instead of inviting additional users?
Albert Heijn is clearly behind on providing a modern experience and in fact its app completely ruined a very expensive annual subscription for us.

Response from developer

Dear Dacloo, Sadly to see that the user experience of the AH app is not pleasant. In addition, I am afraid that there is a misunderstanding about the delivery bundle. If you have a delivery bundle, you pay your delivery costs in advance in one payment. This is often cheaper than paying separate delivery costs per separate order. A personalized delivery moment is an extra option of the delivery bundle, you do not necessarily have to choose this. It is therefore not the case that you pay to have your groceries delivered for a fixed day of the week. Furthermore you do not only have to use your personalized delivery moment. In addition to this weekly moment, you can also schedule separate delivery moment. In addition, an order is always linked to a delivery moment. If you cancel an order, you also cancel your delivery moment. In that case it is better to change your order via 'My orders' and 'Change'. We are happy to help you further to explain more about your personalized delivery moment and order. You can contact us for this via the customer service channels at ah.nl/klantenservice Sincerely, Team AH App ^ Jay

App has False Pricing

This has happened to me multiple times and that is why I have decided ronkende a review. I believe this app is false advertising prices.

I need something and find that it is is “on sale” at Albert Heijn. I make a purchase, specifically wanting this item but ordering other things to meet the minimum order requirement. Then upon delivery, I see that the discounted item isn’t there. When I contact Albert Heijn customer service, they told me that the low price item is “out of stock” and therefore can’t be delivered. Yet, it is still able to be put into my cart for a second order at the low price to be delivered later this week. I asked if they could remove the minimum order requirement so I can reorder the original item that I wanted in my first order and they will not! So in order to get the sale priced item, I need to place another 70€ order (meanwhile I already stocked up in my last 70€ order..... not getting the item that I needed).

This exact situation has happened to me three times now. It is false advertising and a scam.

Good morning, could you send me more information through one of these channels below; https://www.ah.nl/klantenservice I would like to take a look at our system with you. ^Sander

Wish English Was An Option

It would be useful if this app was available in English. Generally, I do not have an issue, but sometimes Google Translate doesn’t help find what I need. Additionally, the app doesn’t show more similar/popular items under the item you’re viewing. I believe if they added a list of items under what you’re looking at, more customers would be inclined to shop more.

Actual issues I have with the app:
1. I originally created an account in August. For some reason, I was logged out and my email was no longer found in the server? I had to create another account in September, which was troublesome and confusing.
2. I also didn’t have this issue previously, but now I cannot find delivery times two weeks in advance. Are more people now using grocery deliveries due to COVID this winter? Or is this a system issue? It takes a while to load the delivery schedule, but only to find no availabilities... The AH store at my place is small and can’t supply much of my needs, so I need to get those items from the app. Now, I do not have access to it and may have to go for a different online grocery store.

English version essential

Impossible to properly navigate in Dutch, an English option would make purchases for internationals much more efficient.

An English version would be great

I’m sure plenty of people would appreciate if there was a choice to switch between dutch and english. Would make it easier for your English customers to navigate.

Needs work

No problems with opening times or products. It is not clear how to determine if the local filial has a specific product. The route planner should be removed until it can find more than 30 percent of the items.
