★★★★ "It's not a very good app. Got my new code from Lloyds bank, but when I click on add a new membership, it won't take me to the next page. Disappointing Now a little bit confusing because the app icon is different when you download it." - Matthew

★★★★ Tony Holmes 5/5/2026 v9.8.2 (7c067154)
For someone like me it's useless. I just want someone to ring me and talk me through it. I'm not very happy with your new system
★★★★ Matthew 5/4/2026 v9.8.2 (7c067154)
It's not a very good app. Got my new code from Lloyds bank, but when I click on add a new membership, it won't take me to the next page. Disappointing Now a little bit confusing because the app icon is different when you download it.
★★★★ Mandy Littler 3/29/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
Ridiculous. Going round and round putting email in, getting code. Given up now!!!
★★★★ Jennifer Berresford 3/24/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
TERRIBLE! I have wasted so much time trying to sort it out... tried phoning but apparently Gourmet Society is so unhelpful they won't speak to customers anymore!! The concept of the 'card' is good for savings BUT communication via app is AWFUL! How can I log in with my membership number if I don't know it??!! Needs to improve ASAP.
★★★★ Debbie Harding 3/22/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
Will not accept any of the codes sent to me. Even blocked me as I have tried so many times.
★★★★ Ivan Cole 3/20/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
Cannot log into my account with new app
★★★★ J B 3/18/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
aimed at new users and as an existing member it says I need a code from an email. No code in email
★★★★ Stuart Jackson 3/17/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
marketing tool for low quality restaurants
★★★★ Gail Donovan 3/16/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
My card doesn't work at Marston's Lost Coins in Haverfordwest - very disappointed.
★★★★ PeterJohn Tavadia 3/15/2026 v9.6.4 (4d3390a4)
App does not allow me to log in. Keeps showing SSL Certificate error. This has happened since last update, and this was over 8 months ago. Losing out on my bonus with Llyods Club account since 8 months now. Tried calling the customer service number, was waiting for 37 mins and still get connected to anyone. Used to love to use this app before. The update ruined it all.
★★★★ Geoff Nixon 3/11/2026
I’ve used Gourmet Society for many years but this year I can’t download the app. They keep advising me to follow the process and instructions which are I’ve followed to the letter but still no luck!! Looking at other reviews clearly it’s an error their end so despite being entitled to my discount card I still can’t use the service. Still waiting to be resolved or refunded. Don’t bother would be my advice to new customers.
★★★★ Si Reed 12/24/2025 v9.4.2 (b612ec56)
app will not allow me to change the location from London to where I actually am. So there is no way for me to search my area for discounts.
★★★★ Michael R 12/13/2025 v9.3.8 (bbe7bf6a)
I hadn't used the app for a few weeks & now GS wants me to register & log in all over again 🤷🏻‍♂️ I tried to do this but GS plus is asking for password manager access!! Why?? I'm really not happy with this app. It used to be a decent addition from Lloyds but I've lost faith.
★★★★ Sjaak van der Sar 12/5/2025 v9.3.8 (bbe7bf6a)
Example of an offer: Not available in December; Not available on Fridays; Not available on Saturdays; Not available on Bank holidays; max diners:2 That is just one venue. Something else: which are those promised airport lounges with discount?? Goodbye!
★★★★ Kevin Hutchins 11/19/2025 v9.0.0 (427615eb)
why do I keep seeing my card expired on 15.11.2025
★★★★ Kathryn Mackellar 11/13/2025 v9.2.7 (af614507)
Had it for a year, never been able to access, still cant.
★★★★ John Turrell 9/23/2025 v9.2.7 (af614507)
difficult to re register each year for lloyds bank
★★★★ Mustafiz Chowdhury 9/20/2025 v9.2.7 (af614507)
Not finding it worthy. 50% off Pizzas are priced as double than Justeat prices from same stores.
★★★★ J M 8/6/2025
Wish we could score zero stars as several attempts to install and use this app only result in endless frustration and disappointment. These so called benefits and enhancements to our accounts would be better served by reduced bank charges. Really hope the decision makers are taking note !!!
★★★★ Allyson Asbury 7/29/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
I am fed up with how hard it is to use this app & all the hoops you now make us jump thro to re register every year! Its not "fit for purpose" any more, for all the reasons other reviwers have mentioned (wish I'd realised much sooner I'm not alone). Also, looks like its still registered to my OLD phone & I darent uninstall it to retry! This used to be a worthwhile perk of a Lloyds a/c, but NO MORE. Someone must be benefitting frm this arrangement, but its clearly not the customers!
★★★★ Margaret Castell 7/26/2025
I cut and paste redemption code and it says it cant be accepted? Contact support
★★★★ Vivian Hoy 7/21/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
cannot sign in never been able to use. no
★★★★ david blowers 7/16/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
Takes about 20 minutes to re-register every time I want to use this. The offers seem good .... if only I could access them.
★★★★ Dough Bacon 6/20/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
It was easy a couple of years ago now you want us to kinp through hoops just to belong to gourmet society.. I'm 89 severely sight impaired and can't remember passwords. why do you want them, you know we are Lloyds customers. It used to be no problem to be a member. Most disappointed
★★★★ Julian Powell 6/13/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
it does not work!!!!!!!!!!!!
★★★★ nevilline barretto 6/2/2025 v9.1.4 (85481414)
constantly can't use it
★★★★ Steven Swift 4/15/2025
Downloaded tap on my desktop, but could not see any any button for Register, so could not go any further. Don't want the app on my phone
★★★★ Keely Peters 4/10/2025
Just joined and can't login
★★★★ Monika Krejcirova 4/8/2025 v9.0.0 (427615eb)
Really pointless. No good discounts nowhere near
★★★★ Sue Hadley 3/12/2025
Diabolical
★★★★ Charlotte Smith 3/12/2025 v8.9.2 (f20fc203)
App hasn't worked most of the times I've tried to use it. In fact, I've only been able to use it once since June 24. I've tried reinstalling today. It's exactly the same. It's completely unreliable! This is a waste of my club lloyds benefit. I will not select it next year.
★★★★ Richard Smith 1/28/2025 v8.8.4 (a12a6935)
Won't let me access my card or the app
★★★★ Steve Pepperday 1/26/2025 v8.8.4 (a12a6935)
Only good of you live in london
★★★★ Vitalii Mytenko 1/25/2025 v8.8.4 (a12a6935)
I can't use a code two times in a row in Nero
★★★★ shaune hussey 1/3/2025 v8.8.2 (c0ca1eca)
Unable to login on the app But can login on line
★★★★ Paul Trevitt 12/18/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
I'm furious it no longer works on my Samsung galaxy s6
★★★★ Graham Hill 12/14/2024 v8.7.6 (5838370c)
It's a truly appalling bug ridden app. Life is too short tol list all of the issues. Get some better developers and test it properly before leaving your customers to tussel with it.
★★★★ Yassine Ferraz 12/3/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
very hard and can't do it
★★★★ michael brenan 11/5/2024 v8.7.6 (5838370c)
Absolute rubbish,how can you make such a mess of a simple process
★★★★ Cocoa Belle 10/17/2024 v8.6.3 (97ec512c)
What experience? I naively assumed that due to all the bad reviews, Gourmet Society would have sorted their app out. No. No they haven't. Is it deliberate so we can't use our "FREE membership" as part of the Veterans Lottery? I thought the idea was to support charities, not con them!!!!? Sort it out.
★★★★ Peter Owen 10/15/2024 v8.6.3 (97ec512c)
Poor administration via veterans lottery/Foundation
★★★★ Cleomir Reynaud 9/27/2024
Can't boatload. All Gourmet systems seem rubbish
★★★★ Alan Plail 9/13/2024 v8.4.6 (961b0455)
The new app does not work on my Android phone . It will on my wife's old IPhone though. My Sony oe only one year old. HELP! 1
★★★★ Matt Wiley 9/7/2024 v8.4.6 (961b0455)
I can log on online fine but I can't log on to the app at all with my log on details. I contacted them a few days ago and have had nothing back. Would be great if I could use the app with my account!!
★★★★ Peter Tillotson 9/6/2024
Apparently this new version of the app is no longer compatible with my device and there seems to be no option to reinstall the previous version again after I was forced to uninstall it.
★★★★ Claire Domoney 9/5/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
I'm told I need to update the app. When I try to do this, I see a message that says the app is no longer compatible with this device (Samsung Galaxy). How discriminatory is that?
★★★★ Martin Goodier 8/31/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
Useless
★★★★ Muhammad Rashel 8/22/2024
Apps is not good enough.
★★★★ Keith Stenner 8/9/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
Useless app. I can't get it to download and so as a benefit from Lloyds Club it is of no value to me. Very disappointing. Just send me a card like you used to do.
★★★★ andrew barrett 8/9/2024 v8.3.16 (391d5cd4)
New code not recognised by this app. If I had read the previous reviews before choosing this benefit from lloyds then I would have given this a miss, as the problem seems to be going on for several months now.
