65 cc cultivator/tiller
Kogan Australia / 65cc cultivator tiller seeder
Australia
This product was ordered in February (order vdmxeyev), paid for ($279) by Paypal and dispatched on 13 February 2018. However, it was not used until 19/03/2018.
(I dispatched this complaint a day or two later but have not yet received a reply.)
When a start was attempted, the starting cord handle broke into three pieces. A start was achieved by pulling what remained of the cord.
Within minutes, the cultivator failed to respond, both to the throttle and the on/off switch and could not be stopped. It accelerated to full throttle and required two people to hold it while the fuel was drained from it.
I do not wish to have this machine repaired, since I consider it unreliable and dangerous.
My Kogan transactions have until now been quite satisfactory, but in this case I would like to receive a credit for $279, or the right to use this amount to purchase other Kogan products.
I do not hold Kogan responsible for the failure of this machine.

Later inspection showed that leads to throttle and one other connection had become disconnected by excessive vibration. I have not attempted repairs, since I believe a warranty is in force.
did not receive item.
Have been exchanging several emails each day for the last week (close to 20) with Kogan about my item which has not been delivered ... yet Kogan insists that it was delivered and they have my signature as having received it. This is impossible as I was at work and arranged for delivery to my parents house. Someone is lying somewhere and I know it isn't me. I am absolutely disgusted and appalled at how you are handling this matter and their total disregard and disrespect for a loyal customer.
tv
I purchased a Kogan TV in October 2017.
Less than 6 months of hardly using the TV, it has stopped working.
After back and forth correspondence with the Kogan help desk, they finally collected the TV for repair.
A week and a half later, I finally received my TV back, however as soon as I turned it on there is a line down the middle of the screen.
I look forward to your prompt response, as I do not wish to repeat the same time consuming process again, which would again leave me without a TV.
Your urgent attention is greatly appreciated.
Kindest Regards,
Sandra Mon

Dear customer service,
It is with regret that, after 5 years of being a loyal customer I am writing to let you know that my recent experience of purchasing a laptop as a Xmas present for my girlfriend has been an awful one. She discovered soon after that the device was not charging properly and contacted Kogan to inform of the problem. Unfortunately there was no contact number so she was only able to send emails to Kogan, and often it took over a week to receive a response. We were relocating to NZ at the time and so she had to leave the device with a friend and have them send it to Kogan. Over two months later, they accepted there was a problem and offered a credit which we obviously could not make use of not being in Australia anymore. It took several more weeks before the refund was processed but the amount was significantly less than the credit which was offered, which we both find rather insulting given the length of time and inconvenience caused by Kogan in providing us with a faulty laptop. My girlfriend has recently started university and had to go 3 months without a laptop and resorted to using a loan laptop where possible to complete assignments. I am bringing it to your attention as I feel that this situation is totally unacceptable and Kogan should have offered compensation, but instead did not even refund the amount offered as credit. I hope you will investigate and contact me once you are ready to discuss this matter further.
Kind regards
Ayon
kogan tv case number 6371241
I bought a TV from Kogan and it was faulty. I was only able to contact them via email and it was very frustrating going back and forth as they would reply only with scripted comments.
I had to provide them videos and photos of the picture and sound quality being faulty.
after a couple of weeks they decided to organise a courier to pick up the TV. I didn't have the original packaging so they said I have to organize it myself. so I did. I organised and bought a box and bubble wrap and masking tape and they got their courier to pick it up.
It had been with them for 22 days before they decided to tell me it was damaged in transit and it was my fault and its not covered under warranty.
this is not fair. and its utter nonsense and all I want is my money back especially now the TV was damaged further under their care.
samsung galaxy s8... require an network pin to unlock my phone!!
Dear Kogan complaints board,
Today I spoke with your service [protected] (Asher) in regards to a Samsung Galaxy S8 That I purchased through Dick Smith's online... my phone arrived in full Kogan colours and only to find my is locked and I'm unable both by my provider and your service team to unlock. After explaining my problem to Asher several times to NO avail and also requesting to speak to his supervisor who could not be bothered with me was sent back to my provider who could not help and sent me back to you guys I then speak to another whoms name I can not pronounce who in turns starts giving me the run around. Finally upon second request for his supervisor Raug came to the phone who in turn didn't seem to want to be help and the run around was again received... my complaint is simple...
Purchased a Dick Smiths Samsung Galaxy S8
It is locked and I require a network code to unlock it
I tried to email Dick Smith's my self but my email would not send
My provider bent over backwards to help and also indicated that all Kogan phones are sold unlocked and feel mine maybe faulty
It was indicated by Asher, that I was lazy and wanted him to do my work for me
In return I have spoken to your guys twice and my provider twice both of which point the finger back at each other and the Dick Smith's to whom I can't contact...
So my response 24hrs is all I'm going to give for a fix or off to the Ombudsman for telecommunications I go...
So please help! Oh and according to the your group there is no complaints department they are the highest I could go.
Regards,
Helena Atkins
Please fix my problem

email with following my case
Dear Team,
I emailed to your CS Team about my vaccum status, as your team members help me follow up my case as the vaccum cannot being fixed, so I suggested few opinions, we were keeping emails till last Thursday.
I do understand we got a long weekend, start from last Friday till now, I do not get any email or one sentence from your CS Team, even the staff said raised to the senior team,
I am very upset that No one would like to reply a customer one word! Even you can reply me "still handling" instead of none!
So, my vacuum cleaner sent back to your office on 13/2, also you provided the replacements they are not I want or similar as my previous model, I told few ideas to deal with it. However no one reply me at all!
I cannot believe at the beginning you guys response me quickly, and now even one word like wasting your time.
I am very upset with this, if you guys cannot make anything to me with this kind of service, I recon refund to me as soon as possible then I can get a new vaccum cleaner!
Thanks,
Teresa
customer service returned faulty tv, return number ra1217995
Return number RA1217995
Your customer service is disgusting.
You've had my returned tv now since the 29th of January, after I had it for only 2 days & returned it faulty.
Lack of response to emails is pathetic. You do not allow phone calls for customer service, only email help is available & you don't reply.
Send me a new tv for god sake, its easily rectified but you dont. So now I'm complaining out loud.
egyptian cotton towel sets
Not long after I bought the towels I complained to Kogan that they were shedding and there was fluff all over the bathroom and my body. I sent photos as requested, and their reply was that it will go away and persevere with them. Almost now 18 months later it is still happening. Of course now they are saying the warranty has run out and they cannot refund me, but as a goodwill gesture they will replace them, but they asked for photos of the towels and the fluff. I did as requested, and now they do not reply to my emails, they completely ignore me.
I believe that Kogan buys stuff from suppliers that do not sell, or have gone into receivership such as Dick Smith, at a very low price, and then resells to unsuspecting buyers who think they are getting a bargain.
voucher code to activate the kogan sim that I did not receive and kogan not able to help
I purchased a small 365 day plan on promo for $152.10 on 3feb18. I waited till I received the sim to then activate the phone, but could not do so as it was requiring a voucher code. I never received one, so have been in contact with kogan to request if they did send me a voucher code to please just resend it, so back & forth at least 20 times without much luck.
Kogan customer center said they are not able to help as the online people I made the purchase from are different and they don't obviously communicate, and the online people do not have a phone contact nbr... So I had to email them...20 emails later, I do finally receive a voucher... But one for a completely different plan... It was for xl 30day 23gb plan for $49.90... I paid $152.10.?
So whats happened to my $152.10 and why have I got one for only 30days..? At $49.90 a month..?
This is for my mum who hardly uses the phone but needs it, as I did this same thing last year and it went smoothly.
When I requested that if I could get a refund or even a credit to my account, so I can purchase another small plan and start again, kogan tell me they cannot refund me without a voucher nbr..?
But I didn't get one..! How can I give you a voucher code when I don't have one..!
This is the payment I made on 03feb18.

**** DONT BUY ****
It specifies that you can extend it witha SSD M2 up to 500GB. This is important as the words 'up to' means that inserting a 500GB does NOT work as it also takes the 64GB and ant SSD storage into account.

I'm extremely disappointed, and offended!. You are saying that I'm a lair?. We are Kogan customers for a very long time and never have question or enquirer your Service before, we have been happy with the services and conditions.
Can assure you that if you look at the "bottom of the e mail offer" that was send to me, there is the mop offer and it said "chosen just for you"! until 25 - 26 January 11.59!
I can tell you I do want this Mop, and I would it purchase even with out the Free Shipping!. I wont be any richer or poorer for $ 14 worth of "free shipping". But yes I'm insisting on this issue for the moral on your behalf of not respecting an advertising that if it is not what have to be, why did you published and send it to me?. And my own credibility, I do not like to be told that I'm LIAR! As well as I have said I want the product, and I will be purchasing it else were, where my money, and customer credibility it would be appreciate! Money it is not my "Issue in this matter, with you" it is Moral, Trust and credibility both ways! Ahhh, It is not JOSE contacting you it is the "Wife" judith deus!

product and service
I purchased a 65inch tv just before Christmas. On Christmas day I open it up, plugged it in and see a obvious vertical dead pixel line. I contacted kogan on numerous occasions and you finally agreed to send it back for inspection for either repair or refund. Because of the crappy service I received from the beginning, I wanted a refund. It took 2-3 weeks before you even picked it up to inspect it. I was told it will take 14 days before you replied. Well it's been almost 20days with numerous email to you and I still haven't heard anything. You guys are impossible to reach by phone and now won't return my emails. I want to know what is happening with my case. I am extremely angry and frustrated. I will put a complaint in to the accc if I don't get a response in the next 24hours. This behavior is unacceptable

65 inch tv
Purchased TV early late December 2018. TV arrived in good shape and the packaging was also undamaged. I plugged the TV in and no sound at all. I have left several written messages on their help line over the past two weeks and have not received any contact.
I will now contact Fair Trading with my complaint. I guess the low price is a signal of the lack of customer service and support. My advice now would be pay the extra 25% and deal with a reputable company.
I'm a fellow Kogan complaint member and just wondered if you had any luck with Fair Trading? I have contacted them recently regarding Kogan falsely selling me a TV (saying it had a feature it does not have).
samsung galaxy s8
I bought a brand new galaxy s8. The battery was faulty and I immediately sent the phone back. Kogan admitted the phone was faulty and refused to replace it with a new phone. Want to send me a refurbished phone despite the fact I paid full price. The customer service line doesn't work!. Please replace the phone with what I paid for or refund my money. I have lodged my complaint with fair trading.
Agora smart tv
I have a 49" Agora tv on assessment for now mor than 14 working days as per their policy and now they are asking me to wait more. The test to be done takes 5 minutes but the issue is the quality or faulty wifi and HDMI modules.
I have requested a refund from the very beginning but I've been told a decision won't be made until the assessment is finished. They had plenty of time unless they have SOOOOO many faulty product that it's too hard to handle
kogan cheap tv
I bought a tv from kogan.com and it arrive faulty. Tv needs to be sent back to kogan. Instead of replacing the tv for a new one right away they are "fixing it" and advice it will be send back in 1 month. If I used the tv for a period then fixing it as a warranty issue then it's fair enough. As far as I know kogan have send me a faulty tv knowing that it will need to be repair and give me a refurbish tv. And it takes 1 month for which is not my fault to begin with.
samsung galaxy s8 - wrong supply - locked for eu sim only
Beware of buying, they take your money, supply wrong product, refuse to ship exchange till you send their wrong supply, after you return their wrong supply, they need again 15 Business days to evaluate, check before they confirm refund or exchange, I was treated for a toss when I bought Samsung galaxy 8 for $872, they supplied a product which is locked for EU SIM only, I paid them on 23 Oct 2017, today on 13 Nov still waiting for refund even after returning the product, all in I suffered all the pain, agony, hardship of going to post office, and this guys do not care anything for their regular customers - not even a regret or how did it happen !
new 4k agora tv ceased working within 6 hours.
I purchased a brand new 4k Television from Kogan. In less than 6 hours of it operating the TV screen went completely black, leaving us with nothing but audio.
Kogan's response to this is after four days of exchanging emails with questions is for me to fill out a form, follow a series of instructions as to re-packaging the item ( Because they accept no responsibility for damage in transit, if it's damaged that's my problem - No responsibility seems to be their motto ) and ship it back to them so that they can ascertain what is wrong with it and carry out any repairs.
How disgusting.
I purchased, in good faith, a brand new TV from Kogan that was essentially dead on arrival. They now want me to wait for them to collect the item, assess and carry out any repairs, and then, when that is done, to return to me what is in fact a reconditioned TV, not the brand new product, which I paid for in good faith.
Any other self respecting retailer would have apologised for the inconvenience, provided a brand new TV, and collected the rubbish that they originally provided.
But Kogan are not any self respecting retailer. I was given the distinct feeling that this is not out of the norm for Kogan and that in fact, what should be an embarrassing situation relating to the quality of Kogan's products, is a mundane occurrence that its staff are well versed in dealing with because of their frequency.
I am so outraged by this event, and the arrogance and contempt of this company towards a customer, that I have lodged a formal complaint with fair trading.
Be warned, do not buy any television products from Kogan as they are, as is obvious through my experience, and after now seeing many other similar complaints regarding Kogan and their Televisions, of extremely poor quality.
Remember! Six Hours! A brand new 4K Television that didn't even last Six Hours!
Remember, I paid for a brand new 4K Television that will in reality be a reconditioned, refurbished television.
Remember! I will be without a brand new TV for weeks whilst they arrange to collect, assess and repair it.
Six Hours!
And Kogan think that this is all fine!
We purchased a SMart 4K HDR television that won't display at 4K with HDR.
Their answer? It sometimes does, so that is not false advertising. Heap of [censored] mob, passing inferior products off at inlfated prices and providing no after sales service. Have complained to the ACCC and going to take it to our MP. Freakign false advertising and getting away with it.
Same story as the above. I got 9 months out of my television (I must be one of the luck ones!) and then it was completely dead. Contacted the help desk, took photos, packaged it up for collection but the courier never arrived. For some reason it was cancelled. It was 2 weeks and a huge amount of emailing before the courier finally collected the television. In the meantime I had to go out and buy a replacement television . Another couple of weeks and I had to chase Kogan for an update. Yes they agreed the television was faulty and they would replace. Given that I had already bought a new one, I asked for a refund but of course that was denied. When I received the shipping info it turns out that the replacement is a refurbished unit and only the remainder of my original warranty - now 2 months thanks to Kogan dragging the chain - would apply on the 2nd hand, refurbished unit. Help desk have now shut down all communications with me. I too have referred it all to NSW Dept of Fair Trading.
I had a similar experience with Kogan warranty service. Also a brand new 4K however mine had colour verical and horizontal lines when first switched on. Contacted Kogan “service’ and a similar long winded process started like send us an email telling us more, send a photo of the problem send a photo of the box etc. not together but one request after the the other several days apart. Then came the “our service provider will call to arrange pickup”. They didn’t i had to chase them a week later. Kogan said give us a day and a 90 minute window to pick it up. The service provider in contrast picked a day to suit them a week out and wanted a 7am to 12 noon period to pick it up but they didn’t turn up in that time frame. Contacted Kogan again who was very defencive about this agent so another 5 hour pickup window was arranged another week out and now several weeks from taking delivery and same story no pickup by 12 noon even though i rang the agent the same day to say i have to go work at 12 so it needs to be picked up before that. Not sure if they did turn up at all that day but the agent certainly hasn’t contacted me. I have now referred the matter to the ACCC and NSW Fair trading.
