Black Diamond Cheese, Canada: Terrible Customer Feedback System

Black Diamond Cheddar. How long is old cheddar aged? How about the extra old? I asked but did not get an answer.

I eat cheese on a regular basis. My favourite brand is Black Diamond. It is of consistent quality, and I have never had a problem with packaging. I wanted to know how long their “Old” cheddar is aged, vs their “extra old” cheddar. It seems to me a simple question.

The Black Diamond website has lovely pics of their cheese, but did not answer my question. I therefore filled in a feedback form asking my question. The response was, not really a response.

I have never been asked to call a 1-800 number just to have a question answered. So I call, go through their English/French option, get to their Customer Service number, and then the system auto disconnects me! I am not impressed, nor did I get my question answered.

Thankfully they do cheese better than they do tech and customer service.
