Misleading advertising by Kogan seller
Ordered 3 x 20pcs 50ml Transparent Spray Bottle Portable Travel Bottle.
When package arrived, there were only 3 x 20pcs 50ml Transparent Spray Bottle Portable Travel Bottle.
Sent email via Kogan to reseller Shinuoshop.
Their response was:-
Dear, yes, we send them all to you correctly.
Please note that 20pcs means that: 10PCS 100ml/transparent+white nozzle+10PCS sub-bottling funnel.
Could you please confirm your received items?
Nowhere in the listing did it mention that there were only 10 bottles.
Desired outcome: Receive the outstanding quantity
Order No HRPLALM8
I ordered this Ipad 3 weeks ago and just received it today. I am very unhappy with this product and would like to send it back and have my money refunded. Can you please let me know how to do this ASAP.
After reading at the bottom of this page that my complaint may not attract attention as it isn't strong enough. I find that a pretty disgusting response, your customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
Your website is very confusing and is very hard to get some sort of response from Kogan. You have no trouble taking peoples money but any kind of response is out of the question. Please don't ignore me this time. I hope this will now attract attention.
Please contact me either by email or phone.
Regards

RGB Dual Monitor Mount
I ordered this weeks ago, it never came but the delivery status was set to Delivered. I work from home, there were no knocks at the door, the doorbell did not ring, I received no texts regarding tracking information as Kogan usually does. I think the courier has taken off with it. I have sent Kogan multiple emails and called their (DEAD) number, but have had no replies.
I need this mount for work, I have a few monitors which are required to work in tandem together, not having the dual mount is effecting the efficiency of my work.
Desired outcome: I just want the product resent express post.
Incorrect Product Delivered
I made a recent purchase of bar stools and my transaction invoice clearly states "grey' seats. The ones that came are not only the correct style but they are 'brown'. On closer examination I realise that they sent the incorrect style also. Cannot get to deal with any person just online chat messages, and these never get ansered.
Desired outcome: Refund
Unauthorized credit charges
I am a new customer I was going to order somethings on your website on 10/08/21 which I didn't want to go ahead with so backed out of the transaction, but the transaction went through?. I lodged an enquiry to cancel the transaction on the same day and didn't hear back. I have since received the products which I and my husband are happy with. I didn't know there was a yearly fee and haven't requested it either, but like I said I backed out of the transaction. I have received an email today 25/08/21 with this reference #9888952 so I hope this helps and another to say this: I have noted down the details you have provided and arranged for #9888984 to be closed.
Kind regards.

Desired outcome: Cancel any subscriptions/fees and to refund the $49 fee to be refunded.
Online fraud by kogan
I have bought apple a watch from the Kogan website, and after the check out they send the confirmation of different model of Apple Watch. It's not fair it's called fraud: the order no is E77TVMAQ. And the customer agent is saying that it's same. I have taken the screenshot of the watch before paying and in the after the payment the watch was different model. No one is responding at all. I am attaching both the screenshot both watches are not same.
Faulty Product
I have purchased an airfryer in June 2020 and it has stopped working.
I am unable to contact Kogan because they don't have email or phone. The website want to me lodge a request via online and when I login then it ask for pin number which they will email but I am not getting any emails from them.
My warrenty will run out soon so I need to contact them ASAP and bit frustrated.
Thanks
Desired outcome: replace the product
Kagan account and emails
I had to open an account to ask a question about a product. Several days later, I have not received an answer to my question, but get several emails from Kogan, which I do not wish to receive. However attempts to unsubscribe have been unsuccessful since I cannot get into my account. I followed the process to recover my password, but I get to a page where I am being told that I will be sent a code, which I never receive.
I just want those emails to stop
Desired outcome: I want emails and notifications from Kogan to stop.
Unauthorised credit card charges for 'Kogan First' & unable to contact customer service
I did not sign up but getting Credit card charges for Kogan First.
Cannot access account as Kogans email confirmation is not working.
Tried contacting Kogan by phone and online but every attempt returns to the email system that does not send the stated email.
It appears that Kogan make it impossible to make any direct contact yet their online system "customer care" is woefully inadequate and simply does not work. They have my correct email address ([protected]@hotmail.com) but their mail does not arrive and it is not in my Junk folder.
Desired outcome: Refund and Cancel charges for kogan first and fix their Customer Care system
clothing products with (very!) incorrect sizing (i.e. medium sizes marketed as xxl!!!)
I have been unable to directly contact Kogan.com complaints or customer support services.
There is an online form that allows you to submit a complaint (in this case a request for return and full refund), but it only allows you to submit a form for one item at a time (I have three from the same order), and then the "system" blocks you from submitting anything further.
I am copy and pasting my return and refund request to Kogan below, as it outlines my concerns, including my concern that their customer support policies and procedures do not seem to comply with Australian consumer law. I will submit a complaint to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission if I do not achieve a speedy and fair outcome.
This is the first time I have ever submitted a complaint against a retailer, but I am so outraged at 1) the sizing discrepancy and obviously counterfeit products, and 2) the obscure and opaque returns and refund system, a system that seems to be deliberately designed to prevent people from seeking restitution and exercising their right to return and refund as per Australian Consumer Law.
Seriously, I can not believe that this company is allowed to operate like this?!
I hope you can help me, even if it is just by "putting the wind up" Kogan.com and expediting my return and refund.
Thank you and kind regards,

Customer support request submitted 04/05/21, regarding products received 03/05/21.
Dear Kogan / Zmart Australia / Fresh Idea Living,
I am requesting a return and refund on the items listed below, received yesterday 03/05/21.
These items are not sized correctly. I purchased the largest sized items (XXL / AU 20-22), however these items are SEVERAL SIZES TOO SMALL for this sizing.
I am a size XL / AU 18 - 20, and if the sizes of your products were correct, they should have fit me comfortably if not loosely. However, these items are closer to M / AU 14-16, they didn't even come close to fitting me.
From researching your website, your return and refund procedures seem very opaque and obscure to discourage people from seeking remedy. And, to put this request in perspective, if I had purchased clothes that were maybe a size too small, or that fitted a bit too tight, I would probably have just written it off as my bad consumer decision.
But this size discrepancy is so outrageous I will not accept anything other than a full refund - I will be happy enough with Kogan store credit.
Just so you understand, if you are resistant to me returning these items and refunding them, I will be lodging a formal complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) as your opaque returns and refund policies seem not to comply with Australian consumer law. I may even notify Wool Industries Australia, as your products are obviously Chinese counterfeit "Australian Merino Wool" products but manufactured to Asian sizing. Yes, Australian consumers want cheap products, but not rip-off counterfeit products that do not meet even basic quality standards.
This was a totally disappointing experience, consumers should be able to rely on basic parameters when it comes to product standards, this is particularly important with the sizing of clothing.
I expect all items listed below to be accepted for return and fully refunded.
Kind regards,
Joannah Reilly.

Shangri la bed king
I ordered a bed on 19/3/2021. 2 of 3 boxes were delivered on 31/3/2021 and I have received assistance from the help desk to contact Allied Express, the delivery company, and organised the missing box to be delivered. Unfortunately, the wrong box was delivered and now must be returned and checked before Kogan will deliver the missing box. This will take up to 2 weeks from when they receive the wrong box. I have repeatedly asked to receive a refund or store credit.
Desired outcome: Full refund or store credit
Order cancellation request
Placed an order (order# XK4WTB4U) with Kogan Australia and requested for cancellation within 24 hours time period and before the order is despatched, requested using kogans website and was provided with case ref number as "9621952". I didn't receive any reply nor the product was delivered. After waiting for two days time, launched another complaint using kogans website channel
(no customer service phone details are available for Australian customers) and was provided with ref number as 9628478 but to no avail, not a single response from kogans customer service yet. Please help me on this regard.
Thanks

Mobile Phone Plan
I bought a Samsung mobile phone from Kogan in December 2020. It arrived with a bonus 30 day SIM card. To activate the SIM card it is necessary to do it on-line.
Their on-line site is designed to get you to buy a phone plan. I bought a 12 month phone plan, yet was unable to activate the free SIM card.
The only way to get to their Help Desk is by phone. Your call will eventually be taken by an Indian National with limited English skills and no customer service skills at all. In dealing with my issue I was under the impression that he was intentionally being evasive in offering me assistance. His only advice was for me to return to the Kogan web site and try to activate the SIM again.
Their on-line SIM card activation site is flawed. Their system fails to recognise their own Code numbers.
I again phoned their Help Desk to be told that they would refund my 12 month phone plan. This was their way of getting me off the phone line. Give me a refund assurance and then go back to watching the cricket on TV. There was no attempt made by them to activate my SIM card manually.
I am still waiting for this refund. Whenever I phone their Help Desk and mention the word "refund", they hang up on me. Quite obviously they have no intention of providing the service I have already paid for and refuse to refund my money.
Kogan should have their business licence withdrawn.
My matter amounts to fraud. Obtaining a benefit by deception is fraud.
Desired outcome: A full refund of $150
Have my past address jammed in their system - I cannot change it
After at least a dozen attempts and emails, I have still not managed to get Kogan to update my address to my current address. They are impossible to contact, and have a bunch of half wits messing around with email when one intelligent person on the phone for two minutes would have the problem sorted, I now have to wait for a month to find out whether or not my package goes 400klm in the wrong direction. The package also has no tracking. Kogan's have NO customer service and this has been so frustrating I have decided never to shop with these idiots again. F*** you Kogan's. You know they're scamming when you can't contact them to talk to.
Neither of these phone numbers put you through to anyone. Just a recording that hangs up. No response to emails
5 tier plant stand..
I will never buy anything from Kogan again, , Just opened the box to put it together, no instructions, no pictures and about four of the slats were off.. They are held together with tiny little staples, very poor quality. I was disgusted and never buying from them again, cheap junk..
Kogan first theft
i bought a chair from kogan in august. no problems. later they used the visa information i provided to charge me for so-called membership of kogan first. i did not realize it until three months later. i lost around $48 dollars. i had to change my credit card to avoid further losses. it caused me great inconvenience as other sellers do not charge without first obtaining customer's consent.
Refund from kogan
Ordered a product on line from Kogan and I was disappointed in it when it arrived. I didn't change my mind (per ACCC) but the product was not fit for purpose as far as I was concerned.
I then requested Kogan to refund the purchase price but I have instead, received a store credit which is of no use to me at all.
I have tried to contact "someone" but all their site seems to do, is move you from one tick box to another until you get completed fed up with the system. I'm never going to use the credit and I want my money back.
To top this off, I have been charged, direct from my credit card, and amount of $11.00 for Kogan First whatever that is. Talk about a rip off!
Not happy Jan
Smart TV
I have an issue with a very recent purchase of a kogan smart tv as a loyal customer
I have constantly tried to resolve the issue going back and forward
Noting and implementing suggestion to resolve the issue, I now seem to be shut out from the help team.. The final straw has be reached and consumer affairs will be notified.. Had enough
58" smart hdr 4k uhd led tv android tv™ (series 9, ru9210
I purchased this TV on the 15/04/20, within a few days I was having problems with it and contacted the Kogan Help Team, after running numerous tests and sending video's of the issue, eventually a replacement TV was sent out to me, the New TV now seems to also have issues so it seems these TV's may not be reliable, on Saturday the 1st of August, the TV screen for Foxtel HDMI1 was very very dark and you could hardly see the screen, after trying to adjust the colour and Contrast I then changed the cable to HDMI2 and it was the same, the TV worked fine on Netflix and the normal Free to air channels, it was only the Foxtel Channels, I then contacted Foxtel, who ran through all their Diagnostic tests and Nothing Changed, they then assumed that it may be a problem with the Foxtel Box and arranged for a new one to be sent, the New Box arrived today, after plugging it in the HDMI Channels are exactly the same and still very dark to the point you cant see the picture, so now I realise its a problem with the Actual TV.
I think at this point I would like to get a refund as this is 2 TV's in less than 4 Months that don't work properly

Help service
I made 2 separate purchases of asic runners online on tuesday 16th june. I realised immediately after my second purchase that I had mistakenly bought a second pair of mens runners, I thought the second pair were women's.
I immediately contacted them through my account requesting a cancellation on the second item due to a purchase error. I received a ticket number via email, I contacted them on 3 separate occasions as the items were not at that stage being processed.
They completely ignored my requests and have now notified me via email today that they have been dispatched. But what is worse is the other pair I purchased and did not try to cancel are still processing.
Also after a bit of research into them and items they sell, they are advertising these runners at an alleged discount price of $175 when in actual fact asic are selling the identical shoe at the moment for $99
Please assist, this us $187.00 including postage. I have looked for a contact number. They deliberately evade customer enquiries
