Call Hovis customer service on 0800 022 3394 for consumer queries in the UK, or use the feedback route on the Hovis contact page, linked in the contact details above, where you can describe the product and the problem and add photos. The same page prints a separate consumer line for the Republic of Ireland. Have the bag with you, because consumer care usually asks for the best-before date, the batch code and where you bought the loaf.

Mouldy or damaged loaf to report? Start your complaint here as well, and we push it out to Hovis by email, social media and printed letters.

If a Hovis loaf goes mouldy before its best-before date, do not eat it, and photograph the mould, the bag, the best-before date and the batch code before you throw the bread away. Keep the bag and the receipt, and report it to Hovis on 0800 022 3394 or through the feedback route on its website with those details and the name of the shop.

Say how you stored the loaf and when you opened it, because consumer care often asks, and bread kept sealed in a cool, dry place should last to its date.

Mould on a loaf well within its date? We help you write the complaint in minutes, with the photos, the codes and the dates set out clearly.

If you find a foreign object in Hovis bread, stop eating it, keep the object and the slice it was in sealed in a bag or container, and photograph both next to the bag with the best-before date and batch code visible. If anyone was hurt, get medical advice and keep a note of what happened.

Report it to Hovis on 0800 022 3394 or through the feedback route on the contact page, giving the batch code, the best-before date and where you bought the loaf, and ask for a reference number. If Hovis asks for the object, photograph it first and keep a note of what you sent and when.

Foreign object in a slice? Raise it through our complaint process: our trained AI opens a case and keeps coaching you on what to send Hovis next.

Yes: for a faulty Hovis loaf, you can ask the shop where you bought it for a refund or replacement, or report it to Hovis consumer care with the photos, the batch code and the best-before date and ask what it can offer. Under the Consumer Rights Act, food sold to you has to be of satisfactory quality, and the shop that sold it is responsible for putting that right, so keep the receipt.

Keep the bag even after the bread has gone: the codes printed on it help the maker trace the batch.

Nothing has been reported about Hovis here yet. Our research shows what typically goes wrong at packaged bread brands: loaves that go mouldy before the best-before date, foreign objects found in a slice, squashed, underbaked or hole-filled loaves, damaged bags, and recipe or size changes shoppers notice on the shelf.

Opened a fresh Hovis loaf and found mould already there? Be the first to report it: your case opens the record for the next Hovis buyer who finds the same before the date on the bag.

Yes. We have an active community of consumers, and complaints here are public: people who ran into the same problem with Hovis can give you advice or back you up with their own story. A complaint with a community behind it is much harder to overlook.
