### 1/5 — Lose money

*2024-09-07*

I just registered, then it displayed I have lose £10from my credit card

### 1/5 — Now I know not to order online.

*2024-08-29*

First I could not figure out how to get out of the UK store back to US.
Then, Hearing Pat Murray’s multiple problems convinced me to not even try online ordering from Aldi. Sayonara

### 1/5 — Greenwich shop and go

*2024-08-25, version 1.2.7*

I went to this shop on 23rd August, did as I was told and authorised £10, spent just over £3 and was told I could go - I did not get a receipt. As yet I have not got any refund.  Not happy with this method of payment. No stars!!

### 1/5 — Withdraws £10 each time QR code is activated.

*2024-08-23, version 1.2.7*

I suppose this functions acts as a deposit for each time you visit a store. This is fine-but the issue is this does not seem to be made clear anywhere in the T&Cs, or within the app at the outset.

I’m down £20 simply from opening the QR code function twice.

I’ve called support and have been told I’ll be refunded within 3-5 business days. Despite this, in no way should it be this easy to execute this deposit function without confirmation.

I’ll be bringing this up with my bank to recall these payments asap.

### 1/5 — Very unhappy

*2024-08-06*

Didn’t receive all of my order but was charged and I can’t even call the store that I shop at to have answers. I have to talk with somebody in 10 buck two that doesn’t speak good English do I sound like I’m upset. I am upset. I cannot believe this is the fourth order I have made, and I’ve had nothing but  problems. Last order pickup a manager said I didn’t even have a order, But they put me down as Pam Murray not Pam Smith. My email is PamatMurray that shows you how screwed up it was.

### 1/5 — Not all shops !?

*2024-06-15, version 1.2.7*

Downloaded the app, put in my details, stored a card and all set to shop. Went shopping, opened the app which said it will take £10 from the card stored, got to the checkout, not a scannable store card like all the other supermarkets. I’ll try again next time, same again. Third time lucky, I then asked an assistant where do I scan at the entrance ? Only to be informed that it’s only available in a minority of stores, none of which are any of my local ones. App now deleted !

### 1/5 — Can’t enter my phone number

*2024-05-11, version 1.2.7*

Just did my first ‘Shop and Go’ in Greenwich - good experience. Now downloaded the app, but it does not recognise my phone number as being in a valid format. Have tried all the options I can, but no success. Please reply to this review with a solution.

### 1/5 — It nearly works

*2024-04-18, version 1.2.6*

I’ve tried to register with the app. First, I needed the helpful man in the Greenwich shop to tell me that I shouldn’t auto-fill my phone number (even though it looked fine) but type it in manually. Next problem was needing to come out of the app to get the code emailed to me. When I got back into the app it wanted my password again - but wouldn’t show a keyboard for typing it, so I was stuck. I’ve given up and will rely on simply tapping in with my card another time.

### 1/5 — Be careful!!!avoid!!!

*2024-03-28, version 1.2.6*

After sign up they ask you to add bank card and stolen $19.37 Aud straight away for no reason from your account. If u trying to reach the customer service the only way is to call a number start with (+44) dodge app!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2024-03-01*

The whole reason I downloaded the app was to see pricing info (so I can compare prices with other stores).  But this app doesn’t do that.  The only thing it seems to be capable of is making your payment experience at the store faster or better.  Which is literally the same thing as apple or Google Pay, so there is literally no reason to have this app.  

It also says there are no stores in the entire USA, which is completely not true!

### 1/5 — Total piece of garbage

*2024-01-18, version 1.2.5*

Can’t even get an account created. Register, enter code they send and I get an error message that my account can’t be verified. A complete piece of garbage app.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-01-03*

This app SCREAMS SCAM

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-12-23*

App is useless. Every time I try to enter in my credit card information I end up getting a PDF that I can’t read when I hit submit.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-10-21*

This app is a scam. It tried to charge my card after i signed up. Do not download!!!

### 1/5 — You need to ask customers which store

*2023-10-08, version 1.2.3*

The first question in this app should be where is your nearest store and then advise them if this is not available in that store. This would save them time in not downloading the app if it’s not a service that’s available at their local store

### 1/5 — Be Careful of this App

*2023-09-26, version 1.2.3*

I have just downloaded this app and set up my account. Which I had to add my card payment details & verified my card via my mobile banking app. My mobile banking account said £0.00 would be taken out, but on checking my bank account £10.00 recurring payment had been taken out. At no point was I told this amount would be taken. The fact that this was done unbeknown to me is very worrying. Luckily I was able to contact my bank and get the payment stopped. Lesson learned. BE VERY CAREFUL 🤬

### 1/5 — Boycott

*2023-09-25, version 1.2.3*

The app does not work and the shop is discriminatory toward those who don’t have technology. Staff are callous and unhelpful.

### 1/5 — Registration doesn’t work

*2026-02-13, version 1.4.6*

I am trying to register for the app and when I input my address or even just my postcode it comes up with “undefined, unknown key”

### 1/5 — Can’t even register

*2026-02-12, version 1.4.6*

Can’t even register with my address. Constant error messages about unspecified this that or the other. Tried doing it via a website invade it was an app issue but there isn’t one to register for shop and go. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Cannot update address

*2025-11-30, version 1.4.6*

Cannot update address

### 1/5 — Cannot add payment

*2025-03-22, version 1.3.1*

Cannot enter without QR. Cannot get QR if you will not add card payment. App is not letting me add card. I guess l am shopping in Sainsburys next door 😕

### 1/5 — Payment options

*2025-02-26, version 1.3*

A terrible app, once you uploaded your information it’s impossible to edit and delete your card details and you have to phone customer service.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-01-26*

I download the app and them  make a payment with no authorization

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-01-07*

Don’t do it

### 1/5 — Error

*2024-12-30*

App will not take phone # no way to place a space between numbers as in sample.

### 1/5 — Charges

*2024-10-29*

Charged me $13? For what? I immediately deleted. Not user friendly.

### 1/5 — The app is not worth using

*2024-09-18*

I wasn’t even able to start using it, BUT I can say that no matter how many times I try to link with the other aldi app ( I made 4-5 accounts) it won’t let me. It keeps saying my password or email is wrong even when I have the password and email I used right in front of me. I thought maybe it’s the phone, it must be fine if I use a computer, NOPE it just showed me how broken it really is. Nothing transfers to each other as if acting like you never made any account unless you use the same device that you made said account on. This app needs some serious help cause it doesn’t even work from the start.

I can't enter or get it to skip the address in the beginning. plesse fix.

### 5/5 — Amazing concept, well executed

*2025-06-06, version 1.4.2*

My last shop took me 1min 9 seconds according to the app!

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-04-10, version 1.3.2*

Good

### 5/5 — Brilliant experience

*2023-08-10, version 1.2.1*

The app is well maintained for this prototype store. Updates and patches are deployed quickly to give a very good customer experience. The store is well laid out and we’ll stock combined with the app creates a good go to location for shopping.

### 5/5 — Well done

*2023-08-01, version 1.2.1*

Seems that almost all the initial problems are sorted and entry to the shop is rapid without needing to log in every time… Hope I haven’t spoken too soon!

### 5/5 — Aldi Lidl

*2023-07-15, version 1.2.1*

Lidl also cheapest in town every where and every county

### 5/5 — Greenwich aldi has defeated the cursed corner.

*2023-05-16, version 1.2.1*

I’ve been coming here since the very first day it opened. It is a credit to the area and is so handy. Something I never knew I needed. Once you account is made it’s easy. Just scan each of your party one by one. Shop and leave. The not knowing how much your spending and a delay Somtimes with the receipt can be inconvenient but I love it there. The staff are always helpful and around polite and smiley ! 

Please don’t ever get rid. I’d be lost ha

### 5/5 — App update - working well

*2022-11-21, version 1.0.5*

Pleased to announce that the update of the app is working very well. Had issues with the login but now it remembers the login with facial recognition. Thanks guys. Shopping at the Greenwich store is now a treat. Staff very friendly. I would high recommend the store and app.

### 5/5 — My favourite shopping experience 😊

*2022-10-27, version 1.0.4*

Update: Thank you, development team! You fixed it! I can save my password in my keychain, too; just in case I need to log out, I can use face ID to unlock my keychain and log straight in again.

I am one of the first and most loyal customers of Aldi SHOP&GO in Greenwich, London.

### 5/5 — The store is brilliant - the app this worst and stops me from going back

*2022-08-05, version 1.0.3*

The store concept is brilliant. The app this worst and eventually stopped me from going back because it logs me out every single time and only produces a QR code that works every third time I visit.
