Please help by reporting them, and by asking them to take the formula off.
I spend a lot of money at Amazon and I really cannot be boycotting them, especially this near Xmas
The advert is for Hipp Organic 1 from Birth Onwards – it is being sold at a discounted rate which is illegal in the UK.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003Y6OOZE/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title
If you look at the seller they have lots of code breaking items:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s?ie=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=grocery&field-keywords=HiPP%20Organic
You can report it online here
http://www.babyfeedinglawgroup.org.uk/monitoring.html
The Baby Feeding Law Group suggest contacting local Trading Standards Offices as well as completing the BFLG form. In England, Scotland and Wales call 08454 04 05 06 or visit Consumer Direct.
I used this contact form on Consumer Direct – https://ssl.datamotion.com/form.aspx?co=583&frm=complainform&ri=SW&to=enquiries
And I said this:
“Hipp Organic are illegally discounting infant formula on Amazon.http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B003Y6OOZE/
This contravenes the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes which say that infant formula must not be sold at a discounted price.
Please could you get it removed.
Many thanks
Lisa”
I left a review on Amazon saying it is a law breaker but the reviews get moderated so I doubt that will show up ever








I’ve left Amazon a review and reported to BFLG

amazon state “Listing restricted products is prohibited, and we will remove product pages found to be in violation; we may also take steps to close a seller’s account.”

Looks like all HiPP products are discounted between 10% & 17% across amazon – http://amzn.to/di6ONw
The actual seller is Amazon, though as HiPP Organic seem to be the producer it’s likely they came to a deal with Amazon, which perhaps amazon didn’t realise was illegal.

Here’s another one… I’m reporting it because Lloyds Pharmacy are claiming it’s similar to breastmilk. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0045ZQED8?ie=UTF8&force-full-site=1
