Ordered off MP on new years day. Get dispatch mail today saying delivery is on 15 January. It must be going on a mystery tour.

I think I'll use bulk powders for any big proper purchases.

That's pretty bad, where do they get off with that sh!t ? What are the delivery times like with bulk powders?

Thats pretty good but its about €10 shipping. Still a very good replacement for myprotein.com. Might move my business to BP instead

Even after my difficult time previously with MP (bag delivered with a hole in it, took bout 25days to get a replacement package), I decided I'd try and order again.

I submitted my order on the 29/12/12. Only today got a dispatch email saying it will be delivered on or before the 15th of Jan.

Running outa patience with these cowboys tbh. Its tragic cause I love their products, the whole company is just a disaster!

Their customer service is horrendously shocking!

If it does take until the 15th or later then I am definitely switching, might try BP as people here have suggested, they seem to have a very similar product range at least!

To be honest the amount of money that you save from these places has been decreasing over the last number of years, and now with MP there's the added hassle of fúcked up orders and awful delivery times. Only thing I'm going to buy from BP or MP from now on is 5kg bags of protein. Going to get the rest from the likes of ROS. At least that way I get to support a good Irish company. They have most of the stuff I want anyway.

What shake is this? Seems good.

I know you worked it out but...

The Pure Whey is 75% protein.

The 85g total is down to the 80g of the Avenches Biotech and 500ml of Cravendale milk.

I just actually finised the shake now as it happens as had three meals in the interim period.

Just on all of this always find it funny when I hear people talking about how many servings per tub without asking what the serving size is, bit like asking how many chicken breasts in that 5kg tray I just bought.

20 or 40 breasts makes no difference as it is still 5kg!

I was once told on two 5lb tubs that A was better than B as it had 90 servings and B only had 75!

MP's fall from grace here on this thread is pleasing to the eye , never rated them.

The Vitals
5'10
11 stone(Very lean)
good diet
find it hard to put on weight (less than half a stone in a month of training)

Goals: Put on a stone of lean muscle and generally improve strength levels

I am currently on a strength + conditioning plan for the Gaa off season and I am using http://www.iprotein.ie/phd-synergy pre and post work-outs.While I have made some gains I feel this could be a good time to switch supplements.

Could any-one with more experience make a recommendation as too what supplements I should consider?

Bearing in mind I will be doing hard cardio 2-3 times a week coupled with 2/3 gym vists.

+1 on ROS, They've got a great selection and its cheap enough too. Ordered from them and it pretty much came next day, no hassle.

People who ordered from MyProtein recently, did the courier label have your full address?

I got a dispatch mail and it only has one line on it. The name of the business building but not my name, the company name or the rest of the address. I just want to check if this is a dispatch email bug.

Yup, just got an email from them this morning with the same problem - nothing there bar the street the building is on.

vigos · 08-01-2013 12:07pm

At least yours had a street name all mine said was "NA" was also given the 15th Jan as delivery date so will see.

Mine was the same, just the first line of the address.

However, it was delivered fine. A day early in fact. This was just a few weeks back.

It just seems to be a dispatch email glitch, same thing happened to me. But it arrived fine with my full address on the package.

I ordered stuff at the beginning of the week and only checked the dispatch email just there.

Should be here by the 17th. I've never had to wait that long before. At most 3-5 days. Won't be impressed if I don't get it until the 17th.

They are using MHI instead of DPD so it takes long as it goes through the postal system.

Ya know, this might not be the worst.

I've had huge problems with DPD in the past. The depot is in the same industrial estate as me and we are open 24hours. They contacted me once to say that they couldn't deliver as the door was closed.
