Ordering from Something & Nothing? Contacts, returns, shipping and subscriptions

The company's U.S. store is us.somethingandnothing.co. Its Contact page (us.somethingandnothing.co/pages/contact, linked from the store menu) says only "Get in touch" with [email protected], and its FAQ ("How do I resolve an issue with an online order?") says: "Hit the chat icon at the bottom of the page or contact us at [email protected] and someone will respond." A second Contact page that is also live, us.somethingandnothing.co/pages/contact-usa, says "Get in touch" with [email protected] instead; it appears in the store's page sitemap but was not linked from the store pages checked (home page, Contact, FAQ, Read Me, the Yuzu product page and the legacy Seltzers page). The company's Refund, Shipping and Privacy policy pages give [email protected] (the Shipping policy also mentions "the live chat"). This profile does not determine which of the three addresses is monitored, and the company's own pages publish all three. No phone number appeared on the U.S. Contact page, FAQ, Terms or policy pages checked on 2026-09-30, and those pages state no response-time commitment or escalation channel beyond these addresses and the chat.

Returns and refunds. The U.S. Refund policy says: "We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return." It adds that the item must be "in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging," that "You'll also need the receipt or proof of purchase," that returns start by emailing [email protected] ("If your return is accepted, we'll send you a return shipping label"), and that "Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted." The same page says "Certain types of items cannot be returned, like perishable goods (such as food, flowers, or plants)" and "we cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards"; approved refunds go "automatically" to the original payment method. The separate Shipping policy says: "We accept returns up to 30 days after delivery, if the item is unused and in its original condition, and we will refund the full order amount minus the shipping costs for the return." The two pages are worded differently, and neither mentions beverages or unopened cans specifically, so ask the company in writing which applies to your order.

Damaged or late orders. The Refund policy says to "contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item." The Shipping policy says to email "as soon as possible" with your order number and a photo of the item's condition, adding: "We address these on a case-by-case basis but will try our best to work towards a satisfactory solution." For a late order it says that if it has not arrived "within 7 business days of receiving your shipping confirmation email" you should email with your name and order number, "and we will look into it for you." The pages checked state no replacement or refund deadline, response time, or rule for drinks that cannot be used.

Subscriptions. The U.S. Subscription policy (headed "Cancellation policy") lists: "Easy updates. Pause, skip or cancel anytime directly in your account," "Free shipping. Delivered every 30 days," and "If you choose to cancel before your second order, you will be charged the difference of the one-time purchase price." It also says that to complete a subscription purchase you must tick a checkbox at checkout agreeing to a subscription. The policy links to a subscription-access page (us.somethingandnothing.co/tools/recurring/get-subscription-access); the U.S. FAQ ("How do subscriptions work?") repeats that sentence and adds: "your order confirmation emails have links to your order. You can manage your subscription from there." Two other live U.S. pages word this differently. The Yuzu product page lists "Free shipping on orders over $50 & subscriptions" in its shipping line and, in its subscription bullets, "Cancel anytime before your next order is processed." A second policy page, us.somethingandnothing.co/pages/subscription-policy (headed "Subscription policy"; the store footer links only the /policies/ version), lists "Free shipping on orders over $50. Delivered every 30 days" and "Cancel anytime before your next order is processed," and its text contains no "difference of the one-time purchase price" sentence. The U.S. Terms of Service text checked does not mention subscriptions. None of the U.S. pages checked says how the "difference" is calculated, whether tax or shipping is included, when it is charged, a cancellation cutoff time, or how a cancellation is confirmed; ask before cancelling early, and screenshot your order confirmation and any cancellation confirmation.

Shipping. The U.S. Shipping policy says the company ships to the "Contiguous United States of America" and does "not ship to: AK, HI or Puerto Rico," with this table: "$0-20 | Free (due to low weight)," "$20.01-49.99 | $5," "$50 and above | Free" (the page adds "Free shipping for orders under $20 (Taster packs, Shopping bag)"). The U.S. site banner and the Yuzu product page say "Free shipping on orders over $50" (the product page adds "& subscriptions"). The U.S. FAQ's subscription answer, however, says "Free shipping on order over £35," a pound figure on the U.S. site, while the U.S. Subscription policy says only "Free shipping." If you paid by card and the company does not resolve a problem, the FTC's page on disputing credit card charges describes the Fair Credit Billing Act process for billing errors, including a letter to the card issuer that must arrive "within 60 days after the first bill with the error was sent to you"; that page is general guidance about credit cards, not something the company publishes, and other payment methods have their own rules.

If you ordered from the UK/EU store (somethingandnothing.co). Its pages differ from the U.S. ones and are quoted here as UK/EU pages. Section 8 of the UK/EU Terms (last updated 18 August 2026) says: "You can cancel at any time without a minimum commitment, provided cancellation reaches the subscription system before the next order is processed." The UK Subscription policy says: "If you choose to cancel before your second order, you will be charged the difference of the one-time purchase price," and "you will receive an email three days before your next shipment with a direct link to manage your subscription." A second UK/EU page, somethingandnothing.co/pages/subscription-policy ("Last updated: 18 August 2026"), says "You may cancel at any time without a cancellation fee" and "Cancellation must be completed before the next order is processed," with no "difference" sentence. The pages do not explain how these statements fit together, so UK/EU customers may want written clarification from the company before cancelling early. UK free-shipping figures also differ: the UK site banner says "Free shipping on orders over £45" and "Free shipping on subscriptions from 2 cases"; the UK Shipping policy table says "£35 and above | Free" (with £3.50 for £20-34.99 and "Free (due to low weight)" below £20); the UK Subscription policy says "Free shipping on orders over £35." UK/EU contact addresses differ too: the UK/EU Terms and the UK Returns and Cancellation Policy give [email protected] (without "and"), the UK Contact page gives [email protected], and the UK Shipping policy gives [email protected]. This profile does not determine which of these is correct or monitored.

Where the company's own live pages differ (checked 2026-09-30). These are differences between pages, listed without a finding about which is right:

• Subscription cancellation: /policies/subscription-policy and the FAQ say a customer who cancels before the second order is "charged the difference of the one-time purchase price"; /pages/subscription-policy and the Yuzu product page say "Cancel anytime before your next order is processed" (see Subscriptions above).
• Free shipping: $50 on the U.S. banner, product page and /pages/subscription-policy; "over £35" in the U.S. FAQ; "Free shipping." with no figure in /policies/subscription-policy.
• Contact address: george@ (Contact page, FAQ, Terms contact block), sam@ (/pages/contact-usa) and max@ (Refund, Shipping and Privacy policies, one copy of the Terms).
• Wholesale regions: /pages/distributors lists North East, Mid-Atlantic, California, Chicago and Pacific NW; /pages/wholesale lists North East, Mid-Atlantic, Southern California and Las Vegas.
• Yuzu can size and calories: "under 44 calories per can (11oz)" and "Each can is 11.16oz (330ml)" on the company page; 50 calories and 9g sugar on a retailer listing (see the background section).
• Legacy Spritz page: a live page shows a Spritz with an "Add to cart" button that the current product menu does not list (see the background section).

FDA enforcement-report searches: no matches for the queries run

On 2026-09-30 the openFDA enforcement APIs (api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json and api.fda.gov/drug/enforcement.json, the machine-readable form of FDA enforcement reports) answered "No matches found!" (HTTP 404, the API's zero-result response) for these searches: recalling_firm "Modern Contradiction", "Modern Contradiction Inc", "Something & Nothing" and "Something and Nothing"; and product_description "Something & Nothing", "Something and Nothing", "Yuzu Premium Soda", "Cucumber Premium Soda", "Cucumber Soda", "Hibiscus & Rose", "Mango & Thai Basil", "Ginger & Key Lime", "Pineapple & Pink Grapefruit", "Orange & Mandarin" and "Sicilian Lemon Iced Tea". A control search (recalling_firm "Coca-Cola", food dataset) returned 79 records. The taster pack and the travel cases were not searched by name, and FDA warning letters, FDA press-release recall lists and FDA's device dataset were not searched. This is a statement about those queries, not a certification that no recall exists.

Reporting a problem to FDA. FDA's Report a Problem page (content current as of 05/11/2026) lists a "Safety Reporting Portal" under "Human Foods." FDA's Consumer Complaint Coordinators page (content current as of 10/01/2024) says that all FDA centers "now directly receive reports of problems or adverse reactions with FDA-regulated products," directs people to FDA's SmartHub webpage ("which will guide you to the appropriate webform or phone number"), gives 1-888-INFO-FDA as the alternative ("If you are not able to use the SmartHub, you may also call 1-888-INFO-FDA and follow the prompts to report a problem"), and states: "The ORA consumer complaint coordinator telephone numbers previously available on this page are no longer in use." These are FDA routes for a food or beverage safety concern, separate from writing to the company. No safety contact, lot-code instructions or adverse-event procedure appeared on the company pages checked.

Who is behind Something & Nothing

Operator. The U.S. Terms of Service say: "This website is operated by Something & Nothing." The contact block in the second copy of those terms on the page reads "Something & Nothing, [email protected], Modern Contradiction Inc., 8 The Green, Dover DE 19901, United States," and the U.S. Privacy Policy ("Last updated: November 5, 2024") gives the same Dover address and says "we are the data controller of your personal information." The U.S. Terms page shows the terms text twice; one copy names [email protected] and the other [email protected] and still contains the unfilled placeholder "[LINK TO REFUND POLICY]". A Delaware registry record for "Modern Contradiction Inc." was not opened for this profile. FDA's published list of Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) importers (the file for April 1, 2026 to June 30, 2026, linked from a page marked "Content current as of: 07/01/2026") contains an entry "MODERN CONTRADICTION INC" with state code "DE". FDA says the entities on that list "may not be the same entities that serve as the 'importers of record'" for U.S. Customs and Border Protection purposes, and that "Inclusion on this list does not in any way convey FDA's approval or endorsement of the listed importers." The entry shows only a name and state as declared at import entry; it is not a Delaware registry record, and this profile does not say what the entity imports.

UK/EU seller and trademark owner. The UK/EU store's Terms ("Last updated: 18 August 2026"), which apply to that store only, say that for orders delivered in the United Kingdom "the seller is: Modern Contradiction Limited, trading as Something & Nothing," company number 10928856, registered office 1 Brassey Road, Old Potts Way, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY3 7FA, and that for orders delivered in the European Union that company "operates through its Netherlands establishment" at Herengracht 449A, Amsterdam (KVK number 80341349). Companies House lists MODERN CONTRADICTION LIMITED as an active private limited company "Incorporated on 23 August 2017"; that is the UK company's incorporation date, and this profile does not give a founding year for the Something & Nothing brand. The USPTO record for the word mark SOMETHING & NOTHING (Registration No. 6383004, registered June 15, 2021, via international registration 1551229) names Modern Contradiction Limited, a limited company organized in the United Kingdom, as owner, covering clothing, non-alcoholic drinks (including seltzer water, soda water and fruit-flavored soft drinks) and alcoholic beverages such as wines and wine-based drinks.

Products and where sold. The company sells cases of cans through its U.S. store. The Yuzu product page (listed at $37.95 on 2026-09-30) is titled "Yuzu Premium Soda | 12x12 fl oz," and its own text about can size and calories is not uniform: one line says "under 44 calories per can (11oz)," another says "44 calories per can. Each can is 11.16oz (330ml)," and the nutrition table lists "13kcal" per 100ml. The Fresh Market's delivery-site listing for "Something & Nothing Yuzu Premium Soda" (12 fl oz) shows "Calories 50" and "Sugar 9g." This profile does not reconcile the company's and the retailer's figures or say which is right (retailer listings can carry data from a different source); check the label on the product you receive. The page also says the sodas "contain grape juice and lemon juice." The company's FAQ says the range formerly called seltzers is now called "Premium Sodas."

Wholesale and retailers. The company's two live U.S. wholesale pages list different regions. /pages/distributors says: "We currently work with distributors in North East, Mid-Atlantic, California, Chicago, and Pacific NW." /pages/wholesale says: "We currently work with distributors in North East, Mid-Atlantic, Southern California and Las Vegas." Both point outlets outside those regions to Faire and are linked from the store menu. Retailer product pages for the sodas were open on 2026-09-30 at The Fresh Market's delivery site (Yuzu), Whole Foods Market (Cucumber, "Something & Nothing Soda Premium Cucumber, 12 Fl Oz") and World Market (Cucumber, marked "In Store Only" with the message "Sorry, not available for shipping").

Legacy Spritz page. The U.S. store's current product links list sodas, an iced tea, a taster pack and travel cases, and no Spritz. A May 4, 2022 press release published by Brewbound says a 4 percent ABV Something & Nothing Spritz launched in the U.S. on May 2 of that year. A legacy page, us.somethingandnothing.co/pages/seltzers (og:title "Something & Nothing Seltzers & Spritz"), was still live on 2026-09-30; it appears in the store's page sitemap, and it was not linked from the store pages checked. It describes "A range of Spritz made with quality dry French wine and our award winning Seltzers" at "(4% vol.)", shows a "Sauvignon Blanc + Cucumber Spritz" at "$69.95 USD" for a "12 pack" with an "Add to cart" button, and lists "Vegan, 96 calories per can (11oz)" beside "41 calories per can. Each can is 11.16oz (330ml)" for that drink. A "French Rosé + Hibiscus & Rose Spritz" section on the same page displays the text "Liquid error (sections/seltzer-template line 299): product form must be given a product." This profile does not determine whether either Spritz can currently be bought. The U.S. store shows an over-21 age prompt.

Certification. B Lab lists Modern Contradiction Limited as a Certified B Corporation, "Certified Since March 2024," Industry "Beverages," website somethingandnothing.co, and publishes an "overall score of 88.2" from the B Impact assessment (B Lab's page gives 80 as the score that "Qualifies for B Corp Certification" and 50.9 as the median for ordinary businesses). That is B Lab's assessment of the company's practices as it describes them; it is not a measure of customer service, refunds or product quality.

Complaint and review record on other platforms

USAComplaints has no complaints about this company. On 2026-09-30 five searches of the BBB directory (bbb.org/search, country USA) gave these results: "Something & Nothing" returned four differently named businesses (Nothing Something, Brooklyn NY; Something For Nothing, LLC, Bluffton SC; Something Or Nothing Variety, Hobbs NM; From Nothing to Something Washes LLC, Brooklyn NY); "Modern Contradiction", "Modern Contradiction Inc", "Something and Nothing" and "Something Nothing soda" each returned "No results." Those searches showed no BBB profile for this business; BBB says it does not have every business in its directory, and the UK seller may not be listed for that reason. Trustpilot's page for somethingandnothing.co is an unclaimed profile showing "Reviews 0" and "0 reviews in the last 12 months." The CFPB complaint database covers financial products and is not relevant to a beverage seller. ComplaintsBoard was not checked. These are records of the searches run, not a measure of customer satisfaction.

Court records

On 2026-09-30, CourtListener searches (search API v4) by case name for "Modern Contradiction" and for "Something & Nothing" returned 0 results in both the federal docket (RECAP) and opinion collections, and the exact phrases "Modern Contradiction Limited" and "Modern Contradiction Inc" returned 0 results in both. A full-text search for the phrase "Something & Nothing" returned 32 docket entries and 20 opinions, none of which was opened one by one; the case names listed did not name this company. These searches do not cover variant party names, state courts, FTC or state attorney general actions, or FDA warning letters, none of which were searched.

Is Something & Nothing Legitimate?

Something & Nothing is a brand name used by Modern Contradiction Limited, an active UK private limited company (No. 10928856, incorporated 23 August 2017) that is named in the company's own UK/EU Terms and as owner of USPTO Registration No. 6383004 for the SOMETHING & NOTHING word mark. The company's U.S. Terms name Modern Contradiction Inc. at a Dover, Delaware address, and FDA's FSVP importer list contains an entry "MODERN CONTRADICTION INC" (state code DE); neither was checked in a Delaware registry. The U.S. store publishes Refund, Shipping, Subscription and Privacy policy pages and an email contact, but no phone number was found, and some of its pages differ from one another (see the first section). On 2026-09-30 the specific searches described on this page (openFDA enforcement reports, BBB directory name searches, CourtListener case-name searches) returned no matching records, and Trustpilot shows an unclaimed profile with 0 reviews; this page assigns the company no rating or verdict.
