Reviews and Complaints

I placed an order with Buytopia Tech to purchase a zoom specticals costing Rs.1280 INR that was delivered on 23.8.2023. The delevery boy refused to let open the product box in his presence.He took the money and runaway. I got specticals of no use, not fit even for simple use.The company did fraud but no email or contact number to complain.Just helpless I am.

Yes I recieved a traking number for ups on the 14 of april and said delievery day was the 15 of april at 11:45-15:45 and still have not got my package I have phone ups they have not gotten anything so this is all on you. The answer to the problem is just call ups for pick so I can get my parcel. This is very unacceptable since you have taken my money. This order was done april 5/2020.

Hello,

So, in October of 2016 I paid for a 12-cup food processor which I am still waiting for. I would like to know if you have resolved the issue with your supplier? If not, can I please have my refund with interest since you have been holding my money now for more than 3 years. My money - right? Not yours - right?

Please send me a cheque. Below for your convenience is my address.

I took the liberty to copy Black and Decker CANADA, perhaps, they can resolve the issue you are having with your supplier and help you get your orders fulfilled.

Maybe, Black and Decker can send me the food processor on your behalf since Buytopia has no morals. I am actually surprised you are still in business.

I am tired of dealing with companies that take advantage of consumers and then expect us to sit back and do nothing. As you can see, time has not diminished my intent to get the money I work for back or the product that I PAID FOR. I work for a wholesler so please do not try and [censored] me. You are just another [censored] company in a long line of [censored] companies. Crooks really ! And, you treat your customers like idiots.

I am actually curious to hear what Black & Decker has to say since their name is associated with your promotion. Could it be they are in on this con scheme? Black and Decker - any comment? Please enlighten me with your "bs" ...

I look forward to seeing the cheque in the mail within the next 10 days. Please make sure to spell my name and address the envelope with extra care as I wouldn't want there to be another 3 year delay to process a simple refund.

Have a lovely day - not .

We purchased a mattress on line from Buytopia 6th April 2019. The vendor being GTA Mattress in Scarborough. We were asked to go to the warehouse to choose our mattress, which we did & we were told that the mattress would be delivered that coming week on a Monday or Tuesday & that the driver would contact us to arrange delivery. We heard, nothng so phoned the warehouse to be told the driver/delivery guy doesnot work for them & he has his own schedule & that we should contact him directly. Which we duly tried to do but he never answered his phone or returned calls. After numerous "heated"phone calls to the warehouse we eventually got our mattress 4 weeks later on a Wednesday at 4pm after promising us it would be delivered no later that 12 Noon that day.If you are going to purchase from this vendor make sure you are able to pick up your mattress in store, do not rely on it being delivered in a timely manner, as their delivery service is AWFUL

In February 2018 Buytopia offered an $80.00 Amazon gift card with the confirmed application for an MBNA credit card. I have the credit card but nothing from Buytopia except a long email thread telling me the card is en route. My last 2 emails have not had any response. I am looking for an end to this matter.
I am happy to forward all of my correspondence with Buytopia.

I was promised a $75 amazon gift card if I qualified for a credit card back in March 2018. I have sent numerous emails and the response I get from Buytopia is that it's on it way.. it's been 5 months now! To add insult to injury I don't get a response to half of my emails to buytopia

Fast forward it's now almost October and NOT A WORD from buytopia!

Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: Consumer Complaint
On May 2, 2018, I made an online purchase of a 100% Cotton Down Duvet through your website Buytopia.ca costing $47.99. I received a confirmation receipt. On May 28, 2018, I received an email stating that the supplier could not fulfill this deal and a refund will be processed back to my account for the outstanding product within 10-15 business days. Counting 15 business days starting May 29th, 2018 the refund should have been received by June 18th, 2018.
To date, September 14, 2018 the refund has not been received.
I have sent several emails to [protected]@buytopia.ca on June 19, July 4, July 17 and July 19, 2018. Each time Buytopia's email response was "the refund has been marked down as urgent" and forwarded to "someone" for processing and to "allow 48 hours for funds to be reflected in my account".
You have violated my rights as a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act, 2002. I am entitled to my full refund as stipulated in your email to me dated May 28, 2018.

I submitted a formal complaint by email via [protected]@buytopia.ca on August 9, 2018. Since that date I have not had a response. I have now filed my official Consumer Complaint with the Ontario Consumer Affairs.

I would like to have my problem resolved by getting my full refund of $47.99 within immediately.

Yours sincerely,
Rhonda King

On April 27, 2018 I placed an order for a Bluestone Foot Callus Remover device to be shipped to my daughter's address. I was confused when I then was emailed a voucher from your company. However, on the bottom of the page it, the instructions it states product will be shipped automatically. To this date the item has yet to arrive.
voucher#ODSNIWWK5SJ Yet the payment was applied to my card on the 30 April 18.

i have send several request regarding this issue .but i have had no reply
i want a refund the company does not exist, there is never anyone there, the place is closed .no phone number .no name on the door
this is my third request, with no response i will go to the news paper and report this site as a scam.
as far as buy product sites buytopia is the worst
no service no respone and no help, impossible to contact, maybe i will go to your office with a big sign, maybe then i will get a response.

re coupon # ngb2wngtve and coupon rqrxpdzq53

This offer was purchased for 2 nights accommodation for 2 people for $49.00 for the Super 8 hotel in Niagara Falls on 4009 River Road, Niagara Falls On.
The voucher stated It was valid through to Tues January 01, 2030.
My husband and I decided to go there for our 40th Wedding Anniversary. When we arrived there the owner told us he could not honour this as the company had been sold a number of times. It ended up costing a considerable amount of money which we were not prepared for. There was nothing on the form to indicate a problem if ownership changed. We would like a refund of $49.00

I bought a gift card deal from Buytopia. Never received it after weeks. Contacted Buytopia and they said they are sorry and that they will refund my money back within 2-3 weeks. It's past 3 months and I've sent them so many emails asking for status. All they say is they will process it shortly.. but no it's been over three months now and still no refund..

This product was ordered October 4th, 2017.I never received it. I tried many times to contact you through [protected]@ buy topic.ca, but there were no comment section for me to email you.So I gave up.
After receiving another package from you today.Voucher # DKVHJF4KEP. I decided to try again & finally found out that Instead of the contact you tab, there was a complaint tab lower down.

Ordered Christmas presents in November, 2017. It's now March, 2018. Have not received. They keep saying being sent, reimbursement will be applied to my credit card. They lie and tell you what you want to hear in hopes you will shut up and go away. Also purchased bath bomb kits from let's make it through Buytopia. Heather there said she would not send because my voucher number doesn't match the voucher number Buytopia gave her. She had the nerve to tell me if I contacted her again she was going to call the police. Advised Buytopia and of course no comments.

I signed up for Buytopia in December 2017 and the sign up discount code was not working for the spa deal I was trying to purchase so I contacted their customer service via email to let them know. They could not rectify the problem and asked me to go ahead and purchase the deal and let them know when I do and they will refund the 10% discount amount in order to honor the promo code that's not working for me.
I did as instructed but they never applied the credit so I requested a refund instead since they refuse to honor what is stated clearly in various email correspondences. The agreed to a refund but its been 4 months now and they still are yet to process the refund. They do not have a customer service phone number and they have stopped responding to my emails. I spend $638 on this deal and they think I will just forget about it?
I expect refund of 4638 back to my CC and interest on my funds they are holding for no just reason to compensate for all the stress they have caused with this issue.
DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!

I ordered a Big Boss juicer sometime in April 2017.
The order was never received after an extended period of wait, I contacted Buytopia to follow up on this order.
Upon investigation by Buytopia, I was informed that vendor has cancelled the order, see email from Buytopia below on Dec 7, 2017:

Hi Nick,

Thanks for reaching out. It appears that this vendor has cancelled
this order without informing us. Thus we have gone ahead and requested
for a refund. You can expect to see this refund back in your account
within the next 10-15 business days.

Regards,

So I agreed on refund, since then I contacted Buytopia few more times and no sign of refund yet. The voucher for this object is not on Buytopia website anymore.

I purchased from you Esso gas voucher 2-in-1 Bundle bearing No.XHB7XEYREJ which is valid through April 30, 2018. The voucher is issued in my name (Iftikhar Aziez) and I paid C$135 for a value of C$160. Yesterday on Feb.21, 2018 I wanted to use the voucher at Esso station (K Circle) here in Cambridge, Ont. but it did not work. The attendant repeatedly tried to scan the barcode but there was no response.

Please investigate and advise me as to why there was no response and why I could not use it since the print out copy of the voucher was very clear.

My e-mail address is [protected]@gmail.com and my phone number is [protected].

I hope that this matter will receive your prompt attention for which I thank you in advance.

After 2 months I received an email asking for an address without a PO box. I replied immediately and gave the proper physical address. Since then I have been emailing everyday sometimes several times a day. As well as trying to call. I have yet to receive any replies to any of my emails. I have not received any refund or my order. Be very careful shopping on buytopia.ca

I ordered this item back in early January but still haven't received it.
You sent me a purchase receipt email dated Jan 11.
UPS sent me an email that they would be delivering it but when I contacted them they said they have not received it yet either.
Can you tell me when this item will be shipped to me?

Thank you for your help.

3 months! I've been waiting and have contacted several times only to get a emailing saying the vendor didn't provide a tracking number...5 days after that email still nothing!
Dont purchase anything they are a bunch of scammers! Same stuff on alibaba.com and they ship quicker!
If they don't reply to me with the next 24-48 hrs as quoted on the phone line and email... I'm taking this to consumer affairs and get them shut down... Take your money and give crap service and don't send anything...[censor]! Send my coffee machine immediately! The power of social media... Brutal on a dodgy scamming company!

I ordered an electric blanket from them - same thing - box completely in chinese.. Adapter for the blanket sent a few days later, looked like it was bought second-hand at a garage sale with the front of it felt penned out, it weighed close to 20 buytopia sent an email to use the adapter sent with the blanket because the voltage is different (110 vs 250) between our country and china. Needless to say, when plugged in - it vibrated, starting smelling, and almost melted. Obviously, our voltage in canada could not handle this adapter they provided - which wasn't meant for the blanket. If someone fell asleep, likely they'd be burned to death! Obviously not fcc compliant, which is illegal!
I wrote to them a week ago, no response.
Checked the suppliers website - all completely in chinese.
Called a number on buytopia's email - a recording that said to email them.
My first time ordering from buytopia - definitely my last. Scam company! Two other items from the same order never received.
Reading other reviews, it seems they are providing substandard, untested products, and not providing any service when there is a problem or complaint.

Herein lies the question: how do they remain in business with practices such as this?!
