Is Vanish legit?

Legit

Vanish comes from Reckitt, the group behind Dettol, so the brand is real, though not every Vanish product suits every fabric. Its guidance points wool and silk to the gels and says to test a small area when in doubt, so if a garment comes out damaged, the product and care label matter.

What we checked

  • Run by RB UK Commercial Limited
  • UK website run from Slough

Watch out for

  • A garment that comes out faded, patchy or bleached, with the pack, batch code and care label still worth keeping.
  • A carpet cleaner that leaves a pale ring or patch, photographed next to the product you used.
  • A tub or bottle that leaks or arrives split, with the product wasted before you could use it.

Did Vanish leave pale patches on your clothes?

We help you write it, it gets its own public page, and you can have it sent to Vanish as a formal letter.

Common customer service questions about Vanish

How do I file a complaint about Vanish?

Do you have a dispute or a bad customer experience with Vanish? Report it through our website to maximize the chance of getting it resolved.

We help you write an effective complaint in minutes. Our AI models are trained on thousands of effective complaint letters. Then we push it through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal. And you are not alone: our helpful community is there for advice.

How do I contact Vanish customer service?

Call Vanish customer service on 0800 376 8181, the freephone line of Reckitt's UK consumer relations team, which handles Vanish. The Vanish help and support page, linked in the contact details above, also has a web form for complaints, questions and comments, and a postal address. Have the pack with you, because consumer care usually asks for the batch code, the expiry date and where you bought it, and keep any damaged item.

Leaking pack or a product that did not do what it says? Start your complaint here as well: we push it out to Reckitt, the company behind Vanish, by email, social media and printed letters.

What can I do if Vanish damaged my clothes?

If Vanish damaged, bleached or discoloured your clothes, stop using that pack, keep the garment as it is, and photograph the damage next to the care label. Note which Vanish product you used, how much, whether you soaked the item or added it to the wash, and the temperature and programme, then report it to Reckitt consumer relations on 0800 376 8181 with the batch code from the pack. Ask for a reference number, and if Reckitt asks to see the garment or the pack, photograph both before you send them and keep a record of what you sent.

Favourite top ruined in the wash? Our trained AI opens a case for you and keeps coaching you on what to send Reckitt next.

Can I get a refund for a faulty Vanish product?

Yes: for a faulty Vanish product, such as a leaking or damaged pack, you can ask the shop where you bought it for a refund or replacement, because under the Consumer Rights Act the shop that sold it is responsible for goods that are not of satisfactory quality. You can also report it to Reckitt consumer relations with photos, the batch code and the expiry date, and ask what it can offer. If a product did not remove a stain, describe the stain, the fabric and how you used the product, so your report can be checked against the instructions on the pack.

Refused a refund you believe you are owed? Put it through our complaint process: we help you write the complaint in minutes, with the receipt, the batch code and photos set out clearly.

Who makes Vanish?

Vanish is made by Reckitt (Reckitt Benckiser), the consumer goods group behind many household brands; in the UK the Vanish website is run by RB UK Commercial Limited, a Reckitt company based in Slough. Questions and complaints about Vanish go to Reckitt's UK consumer relations team on 0800 376 8181 or through the web form on the Vanish help and support page.

Vanish has no connection with the VPN service IPVanish, so a charge or problem with IPVanish belongs with that company.
