Thank you for sharing with us, Kricie. Our team is continuously researching and taking in consumer feedback to create products we believe everyone will love, and understand everyone has their own preference. We'd like to hear more of your feedback, and if you would like to share please feel free to give us a call at (800) 879-8433 (9:00AM-6:00PM CST).

We understand your frustration and appreciate you reaching out to share this. We're sorry to hear there was a nasty odor in your washing machine. We don't expect this when using Tide PODS™, as our products are tested extensively to ensure they rinse away and leave a fresh scent on your clothing. We recommend using a washing machine cleaner monthly to help keep residues from causing odor problems that can contribute to the malodor you may occasionally experience. While we are glad you no longer have the scent, we want to learn more about what happened. When you can, contact us at 1-800-879-8433 for further assistance.

We're surprised and so sorry to hear that your Tide PODS™ have a strange fishy odor, Terand, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention! Our products undergo thorough quality checks to make sure they reach you in perfect condition, so this isn't what we'd normally expect, and we're grateful you let us know. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we'd like to learn more to be able to assist you further; please give us a call at (800) 879-8433, any time from 9:00AM-6:00PM EST Monday-Friday, so we can help!

We want you to be assured that we've done a great deal of testing to ensure all of our products are designed safe to use with whites or colors. Even if you don't use bleach, there are other products in your home that contain bleaching agents. We'd like to get some more information and see what we can do to restore you confidence, so when you have time, get in touch with us at (800) 879-8433.

We're saddened to hear this, Louise. As all of our products go through strict quality checks to ensure that they are safe to use when used as directed, so we would not expect the scent to give you a nauseating feeling. However, we understand that preferences can vary from person to person, and we design our products with our customers in mind, in hopes that you'll love it as much as we do. So we apologize that that's not the case this time. Please know that comments like yours are how we determine the decisions we make about future products and changes, so you can be assured that we will be sharing your comments with the rest of our team! If you'd like to tell us more, and so we can help you find a scent you may enjoy more, give us a call: (800) 879-8433

What you've described is not the experience we expect anyone to have with Tide, Liz. Please know, your satisfaction is our goal, and learning that your recently purchased package of Tide PODS™ Laundry Detergent with Spring Meadow Scent is being described like this isn't what we want for anyone; we're so sorry to learn about this. It may help to know there was a slight change made to Spring Meadow PODS™ in spring, 2023. This formula change was designed to improve scent bloom, and we're sad your nose is detecting what you've described. It's our pleasure to help you as best we can, give us a call for more assistance. We're here daily from 9 AM, EST, and ending at 6 PM, EST. On weekends, our day ends at 5:30 PM, EST. Dial 1 (800) 879-8433 at your convenience.

Enjoying your laundry/detergent scent is half the fun of enjoying your laundry day, so we're sorry to hear about this, Kelli. Your satisfaction is so important to us, so we do many tests to get the scent just right. We'd love to make a report to our team, share your feedback with them, and find you that perfect scent. Please call us at (800) 879-8433.
