What a nightmare dealing with this company. Bought an item 10 days ago and it was supposed to arrive on the 29th. Emailed customer service and never got a response. Messaged them on FB and was told to now wait 9 more days!
Ugh! Now I have to contact my bank, dispute, and get a new card ordered. What a joke.
I have been shopping with ASOS. For a few years now. This was my first time having an issue with shipping. I submitted my issue to their customer care. I quickly recieved a response and my items arrived 2 days later.
The quality of their garments are outstanding!
If You don't shop ASOS you really need to get to know ASOS!
I have ordered 3 (lingerie) items worth $95. My order clearly stated it was a FREE shipping. However, when my order arrived ( in good condition and sizing) I had to pay $16 to the post office clerk
I asked what the charge was for and I was told that Asos charges shipping cost!?!
I am very disappointed with their false Free shipping advertisement on the website and I won't be buying from Asos again.
They stupidly sent an international shipment for an online purchase without tracking (illegal in my country according to our post office) and had no idea where my order was. Gave me the run around and complete garbage customer service for weeks, then told me after a certain date they would do something about it. Wouldn't you know it, that date comes and goes and still no reply to emails or Facebook messages. Getting a refund from them is like pulling teeth, and they are now sold out of the items I ordered so no replacement either. It's awful trying to deal with them and I'm incredibly frustrated. I like some of their items and if this had been pleasantly handled, probably would have shopped frequently, but it's too much. Never again. I almost feel like they were banking on losing my order or just never sent it and want to keep the money. Can't believe they couldn't even provide any shipping info at all. Stay away from their free shipping, it's a scam.
Do not purchase any products from ASOS. I waited a month over the expected delivery date and every time I reached out to the customer service team, they told me to reach back out again in a week if I have not received a delivery. Then, they sent a replacement package with half of my ordered items and would not issue a refund for the rest of the items. I will never purchase anything from ASOS again.
Worst online company out there.
Received product covered in DOG HAIR! Clearly been used and was second hand. Spoke to a customer adviser called Elysia. She offered to replace the item and eventually offered a 10% off full price items which anyone can use at any time if they know how (student etc.)
Despite sending pictures showing the damaged nothing else was offered even after expalining the situation once again.
Think twice before buying from here if something goes wrong they really don't care.
See my email below, i received only automated answers,
No consideration at all, very dissapointing.

Dear,
I have placed my order last Sunday with Express
Delivery. Shipment within 2 days, should have been
Delivered by now.
I haven not received anything yet.
What is the reason for the delay?
They were meant as Christmas gifts on
Christmas Eve.
Kind regards,

It's really a shame. This company has good products at super competitive prices. However, their customer service is neck and neck with current Amazon customer service for worst in the biz. It is impossible to speak to someone and they just push you into their hyper-general FAQs, which are, essentially, useless. I spoke with a customer service rep by chat and he, essentially, said "sorry, bro, we aren't going to fulfill our policies, our bad". I am paraphrasing, obviously. I don't need someone to explain how things are going wrong and how they sympathize with me. I need someone to solve my problem. Too bad. I am going to stop shopping on the site.
This company is dishonest, unreliable and unapologetic. They lie and say an order will arrive, or has arrived and you have to keep going back to the live chat for days on end to get a refund. They say you can have a refund 'tomorrow', then on 'this day', then another later day. Thieves, scam. Avoid.
The items I ordered arrived as promised (4 day shipping) which was impressive considering this was holiday week and I live in Seattle, WA. A little disappointed with the sizing of the item I ordered. I'm 5 1", athletic/ curvy build. I was excited that the petite shop had such variety to offer. I ordered a high neck, velvet bodycon dress, it looked as promised, but when I tried it on it was a good 5 inches too long! And it didn't do my curves any favors, either. Surprising, since I ordered the smallest size available: 2. Kind of just straight up and down. Not sure if I'll keep out to have it altered length- wise, as I really do need it for an event. Wanted to avoid all that bother by ordering petite to begin with! Shoes could have been packed better, too, box wasn't dented but shoes (velvet block heels) arrived needing to be bent back into shape.
Answer: Hello Em, Yes it is true. The site has very poor delivery and customer service. I do not recommend it.
Answer: Doubt it, I don't think they sell any knock off's. Depending on the print you got, some of them don't have stripes. Hope that helps.
Answer: No. They will find 101 reasons to screw you out of your money
Answer: No. If anything it has gottten worse.
Answer: Look, as I wrote here I shopped with them many times and I was never disappointed. I don't know where you buy from, but I live in Italy and it doesn't take more than 4-5 working days for them to deliver the package. If you're concerned about the quality, well, it's not really top-notch, but considering the price it's really good (you can't expect Max Mara quality from a shirt you paid 20 euros). As for the fit be careful because those are UK sizes and they are definitely NOT vanity sizing! Meaning: when you read "model pictured wears UK 8" you may think "they're lying, she's clearly a 6" but they're actually not in most cases. I have a body similar to that of most of their models, I ordered size 6 twice and it was a tiny bit small. So size accordingly. All in all I trust them and I like their product. Perfect low-cost site to shop from online.
Answer: Complain about Asos through the Retail Ombudsman, if more people complain about companies like Asos they will have no choice but to improve their service to their customers.
Answer: Your only option with asos is live chat. I used it just now and also a few days ago and it worked just fine. They solved all my issues. Chat is the only way to contact.
Answer: You have to be a careful shopper. Check the fabric content! I just purchased Is 4 pairs of cargo pants. Same style, different colors. They are 100% cotton and excellent quality. I also purchased things by topshop and free people on this site. Asos has its own brand but sells others. Returns are effortless so I don't know why so many people are complaining. I have very high standards and they haven't let me down yet.
