Food Waste

Extremely well organised. Great way to share food that would otherwise go to waste. Brilliant 🤩

Bullies Nest

Bullies on forum pushing people away. I see same miserable faces as 2 years ago whos purpose is to attack and argue with users.

Many users on app are dodgy , keeping food for themselves rather than distribute it to people. You cant report them anywhere.

One would ask, where are the principles or values of people who run this app and keep group bullies on their forums and as volunteers?

Reading other reviews its a common thing.

Your ads are mostly gambling, scam from china, and even adult erotic service ads.

Risposta di Olio

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely sorry to hear how negative this has felt for you. That’s clearly very upsetting, and it’s not the kind of experience we want anyone to have when using Olio.

We want to be clear that bullying, harassment or unkind behaviour is not tolerated on our platform. We work hard to create a respectful and supportive community, and we’re sorry if this hasn’t been your experience. If you see inappropriate comments or behaviour in the forums, please use the flag option on the post so a member of our team can review it and take appropriate action.

Regarding food sharing, Food Waste Heroes are not allowed to keep surplus food for themselves (apart from their 10% allowance) All volunteers receive training and clear guidance to ensure food is shared fairly and as widely as possible. If you believe someone isn’t following these rules, please contact us at hello@olioapp.com so we can investigate.

We’re also very sorry to hear your concerns about ads. Ads help keep Olio free to use, but they should never go against our values. Ads are provided by third-party networks and if you see an ad that feels inappropriate, please take a screenshot and email it to hello@olioapp.com

Our team will review it and block it where necessary. We also offer an ad-free subscription option for those who’d prefer not to see ads at all.

Thank you again for raising these concerns. We’re sorry your experience hasn’t reflected the values we strive to uphold, and we appreciate you speaking up.

Warm regards,
Team Olio 💚

I only took 1 star off as I have had…

I only took 1 star off as I have had dealings with a few dodgy , rude people on there requesting ( practically demanding ) the food and my address!

As a lone female I do not feel comfortable with pushy or dishonest men or demanding snappy women lol

So the 4 stars is for MOST people who have been lovely , turned up when said and followed my instructions and were polite

I am NOT a FWH as I do not drive - I just try new foods and make mistakes re buying in bulk to save money

I also like to declutter or get rid of food lurking in my freezer to make room for new food

I also give away household items

Most people are lovely like I said and the NEW VERY LOCAL INDEED FWH I have found recently ( who has become one recently ) is a DREAM!!

So very polite and pleasant and I do sometimes miss out but other times we have got a lovely few bits which come from Sainsbury's

I am a full time carer on benefits so it is such a treat to be GIFTED FOOD and Olio is a wonderful app and it really helps me out plus helps prevent food waste!

Olio is a win-win on several fronts

Olio is a great idea which works by giving people free food that supermarkets would send to landfill. I am lucky to have quite a few great volunteer Olio distributors in my area. I’ve also given away a few free items that are collected, so I feel am giving back to the community. In these tough times it feels good to share & avoid waste. It works really well in my area.

This is a fantastic app

This is a fantastic app. I have used it to pick up good quality free food and I also have managed to declutter. The other person collects from you so no need to take it anywhere. It is good for recycling and cutting waste, saved £££.

Recycling

Being heavily into recycling, I love the Ethos of this scheme, saving food from going to waste and sharing items that we no longer use with others.

Rubbish I listed free food and free bits nobody ever was interested,
Plus the food given away is always salad and bread that’s it.

Risposta di Olio

Hello,

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, we’re sorry to hear that Olio hasn’t worked as well as you’d hoped. It can definitely feel frustrating when items you list don’t get interest, especially when you’ve made the effort to share them.

Interest can vary a lot depending on location, timing, and what people nearby are looking for. Sometimes listings receive lots of requests, and other times fewer, even when items are still useful.

When it comes to food, what’s available on Olio depends entirely on local surplus from stores, which changes day to day. Some days there’s more variety, and other times it may mostly be bread, fruit or salad. While we can’t control what surplus is available, every item shared still helps prevent waste.

We really appreciate you giving Olio a try, and we hope you might consider using the app again in the future.

Warm regards,
Team Olio

Food waste heroes fill their own freezers...

I've used this app to both give away household items locally and also have appreciated receiving useful items destined for landfill which is a great idea.

However food waste is abused by Food Waste Heroes who brag about having multiple freezers full of ready meals, pastries, meat and fish.
This is why I only ever see out of date bread advertised as the best items are kept by the collectors.
This needs to be investigated as food distribution isn't going to the people intended.

Risposta di Olio

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for using Olio to both give and receive items, we’re really glad to hear you’ve found value in the household sharing side of the app.

We’re very sorry to hear your concerns about food distribution. All volunteers receive training and clear guidance that food must be shared as widely and fairly as possible within the community. Any behaviour that goes against this is taken very seriously.

If you’ve seen or heard of a specific case where a Food Waste Hero may not be following these rules, we’d really appreciate you reporting it to us at hello@olioapp.com. This allows our team to investigate properly and take appropriate action if needed.

Thank you again for raising this, feedback like yours is important in helping us protect the fairness and integrity of the programme and ensure food reaches the people it’s intended for. 💚

Warm regards,Team Olio

Absolutely fantastic company!

Absolutely fantastic company!
There’s an app where you can give and receive free food and non food items. You can also sell or buy food and non food items. You can also, and this is a fantastic idea, lend or borrow items for a set period!
It’s all about reducing waste and that’s brilliant!

The fact that you have to watch a video before requesting spoils what is a good app. I won't be using it again.

Risposta di Olio

Hello,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear that the ads have affected your experience of the app. We completely understand how this can feel frustrating, and we appreciate you letting us know.

To explain a little more: ads help keep Olio free for everyone. Running the app, supporting our community, and building new features all come with significant costs, and ads are one of the ways we can cover those costs without charging users to share or request items. We never want ads to feel intrusive, so we’re always working to improve how and when they appear.

If you’d prefer not to see ads at all, you could become an Olio supporter, a subscription that removes them completely, so you can browse and request items without interruption.

We’re really grateful that you took the time to try Olio, and we hope you might consider giving the app another go in the future. Your feedback helps us improve, and we truly value it. 💚

Warm regards,
Team Olio
