Anyone tried to SE protein before? - ganc - 11-28-2018
New to this forum not new to SE.
Just tried to SE a tub of protein from a NZ multibranch health company. First time with protein. I just used their online form and said that the tub I got was hard to mix and had an off taste, which I found to be common issues people have.
After a few emails back and forth including some photos of a tub that I had, and a phone call, they sent me a concluded investigation report stating that they found the batch was fine from their own testing, on dispatch, and basically to get fked LOL
Maybe my approach was wrong, and I wasn't insistent enough, thinking that they would definitely replace it as a safety concern.
I had no POP. Has anyone successfully SE'd protein before?

Of course, it's really easy, just a tip, you don't have to have the protein just tell them you threw it away. Stick with your story of making you feel sick etc..

It's very easy, try Amazon. Just tell them they've sent you wrong flavor and you found it out when you opened it. It's against their policy to accept returns of food and grocery, so they will just have to refund you. I am talking about protein dispatched and sold by amazon.

Is it against their policy? Didn't know, thanks for mentioning.

I've SE'd almost 40lbs of whey, I just emailed them saying it made me feel sick and I used a generated amazon receipt as POP,

Hmm OK. I told them I threw it away, they said they tested the sample of the batch they retain and it was compliant. Then they just ignored me haha.

I'll try it. Maybe on a different company though, these guys just brushed me off with the 'QA team' report. Thanks.

Try going through with it. I messaged tons of companies, a couple didn't reply though. Also, go for the 10lb bag if they have any available.

With food/consumable Items, always say you felt "extremely" sick- to the point of taking time off school/work. They're obviously not going to put you through a full medical examination.

You'd be better off SEing tuna, more protein per calorie and per dollar
