I put in an order earlier today and got an email from DHL in German. Guess they're shipping from Germany now.
Asked for a refund again. 2 orders in, and I've heard nothing.
Just figured out that the code given is wrong. It should be an 'I' in the middle but he's written a lower case 'l'! I just copied and pasted and never noticed.
What are some Irish-made whey proteins that distribute within Ireland? (Obviously there are Irish retailers selling products from abroad within the county too, but I'd like Irish produced whey if possible)
Kinetica?
Flexinutrition?
ON(?)
Any others: Glanbia own BSN and Isopure, others too, does that mean it's all Irish produce?
I've certainly ordered from MyProtein and The Protein Works in the past, and maybe I will again, but I wouldn't mind supporting an Irish business and one that might make a lesser impact on the environment in terms of shipping, packaging etc.
Code doesn't work for me. Where did you find that one? Hoping there might be a similar one I can use to get a decent discount.
€70 for 5kg vanilla impact whey with DOMlMYP
Thought it was €67 yesterday, prices seem to change by the day and depending what's in your basket.
Made an order from MyProtein last night, only 1kg whey in case it's blocked.
Just got dispatch email from DHL in German. Looks like Irish orders are coming from Bonn, Germany now.
That was MyProtein's live chat Bulk's site says they ship from Poland too but based on Trustpilot reviews they had the same issues with the new 2kg rule that MP had so they weren't shipping from Poland in that case.
ProteinWorks is also a great brand
Is that bulk or myprotein who are shipping from Poland?
They're literally ignoring my request for a refund. It's simply skirted around and they say they're "looking into it". I'm eating protein yogurts (which have 20g protein) while I wait.
Yikes! That's a sharp increase in prices on MyProtein. Lowest I can see is €77 for 5kg after trying a few codes. Winter bulk is officially cancelled. Spaghetti arms for life!
I wonder if the fact they're shipping from Poland now means the €80+ cost for 5kg is the new baseline price for the larger quantities?
Live chat said the issue has been resolved and they are shipping from Poland now. Still waiting to see if they'll honour the €95 for 10kg impact whay that I paid last month that was rejected by customs.
€67 for unflavoured with code.
Bulk have 5kg available too.
Hopefully they make an announcement.
I haven't tried yet, but have noticed the price of protein is way higher than it used to be, even with discount codes. A 5kg bag used to be just under €60, now it's €82.54. Supply issues in the UK driving prices up?
Just checked myprotein and it's giving me the option to add 5kg items to my basket (it didn't last week). Anyone tried making an order/is the shipping restriction no longer an issue?
Yeah, I am having problems. Ordered on the 28th of July. It still hasn't arrived.
I got this generic message from their support team today. It's getting beyond a joke how long this is taking to arrive.
1kg of ROS nutrition whey for €16 at AOB - good price imo!

With myprotein having difficulties shipping animal products over 1kg, has anyone had difficulties with getting vegan whey delivered?
Omar Isuf's company Elemental Formulations are setting up their European HQ in Limerick so hopefully will provide another good option in Ireland.
Looks like MyProtein is not a viable seller of protein anymore. They're not offering any Whey Protein over 1kg anymore! It's still available if you're shipping to the UK though. Not good.
Ordered 1kg whey on 6th August.
Shipped on 11th August.
Delivered 23rd August.
Another week has gone by, the package still hasn't moved out of customs. I reopened my ticket with MyProtein for an update. Let's see what they say.
I'll open a dispute on the charge with my bank if I don't hear back in the next couple of days.
There wouldn't be the scale here really with such a small population, when a lot still buy ON, ROS nutrition, Kinetica etc. ROS are probably the closest. Lower economies of scale mean that even an unbranded bulk supplier here would have higher prices, so less of a differential with ROS, ON etc. Discount supplements also do their own brand too but it's more expensive than MP / Bulk: https://www.discountsupplements.ie/protein-supplements/whey-protein/discount-supplements-100-whey-protein-25kg
I messaged bulk a couple of days ago, asking have they rectified the issue with delivering whey/animal products over 2kg to Ireland as they previously informed me they would rectify it and look to ship elsehwere in Europe.
No reply, which makes me think they haven't come up with an alternative.
Surely it creates an opportunity for some Irish crowd to fill the vacuum created by bulk/myprotein?

Not loving the look of prices on AOB Nutrition and some of the other suppliers mentioned in the thread.
Wondering if ordering from MyProtein Germany .de would work? Seems likes it's possible to select Irish delivery location from the site
(Going to try it later unless I find a better solution.)
I can't imagine they're accepting orders on the German .de site and not distributing them from an EU location. But then maybe 80% of their orders are UK ones...
