Unacceptable packaging
November 22, 2023

This is the first time I ever ordered from Zara. My granddaughter requested two items, a jacket and a pair of jeans, from this site for Christmas. The order was delivered very quickly, and I received what I ordered, but when the package arrived today, it was partially ripped open because the item were shipped in a box that was much too small for the size of the items. When I spend over $200 for 2 items of clothing, I expect them to be shipped in a box that is big enough to arrive in tact. I doubt that I will ever purchase from this site again. Now I understand why they don't accept reviews on their website!

Quality
October 3, 2015

No quality found these days with Zara, everything brakes in first day or even hour.

You put your new shoes and until you'll get bus stop they are broken already, you took blouse from zara and you give more samples of disaster.

Thats very shame about Zara as nice clothing, but for to short wear.

Most cherished
January 6, 2021

Zara has some of my most cherished shoes! $25.00 for a cute pair of boots? Just count me in! I really enjoy buying their clothing. All works together to provide you with the hottest looks. So much to choose that at times it can get frustrating. I suggest that when it comes to putting goods in the correct area, they could use some better organisational skills. The order came sooner than expected and my shoes were right in size and design. I'm thoroughly pleased with my decision to purchase these shoes. I still receive compliments. But with customer support, they could be swifter. It's difficult when you have people who don't react quickly enough. I don't have to sit on the phone for 30 minutes. I

I purchased a dress and skirt for my daughter online. One item arrived ripped, and the the other began to tear after she wore it for a grand total of ONE times. That's sad. Also I recently read an article about how they don't even pay their employees fairly in the factory. It's not like they are offering bargain bin prices so it is sad to see that they are heading downhill. I will not be buying her anymore clothing from here anymore unfortunately.

I love Zara's clothes. They always have the most beautiful affordable collections, plus their app is perfect. The problem is (especially during sales) you got to have to buy as soon as you choose something or it will disappear. They don't save your basket not even for 5 minutes. And their customer service /tracking system everything that has to do with delivery really is just deplorable.

Went to store on Newbury Street in Boston. It looked like it had been hit by a hurricane. Clothes everywhere including the floor. Line was 20 customers deep. There were closed registers and staff made no effort to expedite the process. This store is VERY poorly run and maintained. Disappointing because there were some cute clothes. I'm sure many left because of the wait and poor customer service!

3 out of 5 items I purchased fell apart within several wears. I followed care instructions. Customer service is the worst.

When in doubt, go straight to corporate in NYC for returns. Their web support is abysmal. I wasted years of my life on the phone with an incompetent reps who lost items in the store house, lost receipts, totally bungled my order and then refused to compensate when I returned a brand new item.

We love Zara Kids!
August 7, 2019

I quite enjoy Zara because they have on trend kids clothing for my son. I do have to say, I think the kids clothing (quality wise) is better than the adults. The jeans generally last unless my son grows or plays exceptionally rough (generally wears in the knee area if it does).

I have not had a bad experience with Zara thus far and can order last minute items for trips that will arrive on time to take with. I purchase some swim trunks (for son) for our trip to LA and they have become his favorites. Will continue to buy with them!

Most of their kids clothing last the perfect length for a tall growing boy of 7.

Awful Customer Service
January 18, 2023

The man who answers the phone is really great, very polite. He tries to help you, and is very professional. The women on website's chat are cold, and rude. I was also ignored for over 15 minutes by "Gema". She lied about my item return options, and was insanely rude. Stephanie, was equally cold, and unpleasant but less dismissive then Gema. I don't understand people who are paid to do a job, and feel they can be so unpleasant to paying clients.

So so
August 7, 2023

Quality is not that great. I ordered a bunch of cotton t shirts that showed up so paper thin. 2 were decent quality. The other 4 were not worth half the price I paid... I returned 4 out of 6. Returns are not free. I'm out 20$ in ship,return ship, and tax not refunded just for placing an order. However, I do applaud the fact they ship in paper without plastic bags. Probably won't order from them again.

Zara is a joke
June 20, 2024

Zara have become a disgusting JOKE and I will NEVER buy anything from them EVER again
I returned a dress one dress to be emailed that some of my items were returned not in a perfect state
Absolute lies. And they refer to more than one item
There is no REAL way of contacting ZARA as they have become totally uncontactable apart from their ridiculous watts app complete waste of time service or social media.
They will not show me how this ONE dress was returned only to say it wasn't perfect
I know it was as all my returns have been. I contacted them vire their ridiculous watts app to be told the same lies. I've asked them show me? And why are you referring to items?
All lies
They are an absolute disgrace
I was a very good loyal customer but I will NEVER SET FOOT nor will I EVER purchase anything ever again

If you are going to shop at Zara, do it in person. Every online order I've placed has encountered major issues and delays, resulting in huge headaches. Their customer service is AWFUL and give you the same lines over and over without offering any actual support or helpful information. It's been 16 days and I still don't have my most recent order -- and I don't even know where it is. The tracking on it stopped updating last week. No answers from Zara.

Zara is a SCAM
June 5, 2023

I placed an order for a shirt and a pair of shoes that was stolen off of my front porch. While trying to file a claim, Zara continued to show me how careless and unsupportive they're during this process. All they care about is their money and not the customers satisfaction. I sent them pictures of someone stealing the package and still have not received a refund or a replacement. I will never shop here ever again! Customer service was very displeasing.

I placed an order online and it never arrived. The UPS tracking info clearly states the package was damaged and contents were missing and the empty box was discarded. I have called and had 2 chats with Zara, each experience more painful than a root canal. Each time I am provided a new case and told someone will be in touch. It would be easier to challenge the charge with my credit card company. I realize the clothes are cheap but that's no excuse for stalling my refund when you can see the package never arrived and UPS has even contacted Zara about it. Literally worst retail experience ever.

Never buy anything from Zara online, this is what you'll get.
These came all bent up and chipped, like somebody stomped on them and still tossed them in a shipping box carelessly. They'll also try to CHARGE YOU for returning anything. It's hard to get a hold of anyone. This company does not care about you or quality.

Arrogant Customer service
December 10, 2021

I like the items that Zara makes. However, when you shop online the sizes are hit or miss. Therefore, I end up doing a lot of exchanges. Zara is one store that takes limited responsibility for their mishaps. Instead they blame the customer. They send with tags attached but the pants was obviously worn as there was dirt mark at the end of the pants. All I wanted was a new pants same size and return the one they gave me. I was told they had to an investigation…., really. They never offer discounts or anything when they mess up only apologies. Zara do better please.,
Customer service piss poor!

Set aside the fact that the quality of Zara's products is far away from the cool-looking pictures online.
When I returned my online purchases to the Pasadena store, they (with a condescending tone) refused to provide me with any proof of my returns including a printout receipt claiming "all the other stores have the same policy on online returns" - which is not true.
When I asked for the rep and the manager's name, their response was "We are not allowed to give out our names to customers." They said I have to wait for the email for proof of return - which I am still waiting a day later. Deceiving products, worst customer service, will not purchase anything else from Zara.
