The overall reputation of the company is significantly marred by persistent customer service issues and delivery failures. Customers frequently report delays in shipping, incorrect items being sent, and a frustrating return process that often leads to dissatisfaction. Many express frustration over the lack of accessible support, relying solely on chatbots for assistance, which often fails to resolve their concerns. While some customers appreciate the product quality, the overwhelming sentiment reflects a declining trust in the company, as unresolved complaints and inadequate communication dominate the feedback. This suggests a critical need for improvement in customer service and clearer return policies.

I've ordered some clothes from ASOS since the beginning of the year and the end of last year. I had to send a couple of clothing items back to them which is an easy process with returns, but the refund process was horrible! I never received the refunds for both clothing items. Communication is terrible. I do not recommend doing business with ASOS!
I ordered from ASOS quite a few times as I love all the brands they carry and they sometimes have great deals. However, the customs charges for each order didn't make the orders worth it for me. It was a hit or miss before but now 100 percent of orders will have massive charges on them. If you need to return it's expensive and if you have an issue with your order contacting customer service is an absolute nightmare! It's only worth it if you're from the UK.
Edit: they've changed some rules so now I believe you're able to order up to 120 dollars worth of items without custom charges! Yaaaay!
I have ordered 2 dresses and 2 pairs of shoes from Asos. The first dress has a terrible chemical smell & I cannot hang it inside my home. After 5 days outside it still smells. I contacted Asos and they have not responded. I am forced to pay for return shipping to return a FAULTY clothing item at the tune of $22. Both pairs of shoes are fine if you like cheap plastic shoes. The second dress appears white in the photos but when it arrived it has a pink & green sheen to the sequins & I look like a 5 year old in it. No woman over the age of 12 would want to wear it. In order to return it, I am (again) having to pay $22 for return shipping. There is no where on their site that they allow for customer reviews of their products in order to forewarn other potential buyers - clearly deliberate on their part. Asos gets a big fat fail from me & I will not be making a purchase from them ever again.
I loved ordering from ASOS because the return policy was such a breeze and I could get my order in 3 buisness days. Since implementing the new procedure, it is EXTREMELY difficult to get an item returned. They are not responsive at all and I felt like they were giving me the run around. It has taken me 5 weeks for them to get a return label to me. This was absolutely unacceptable. I WILL NEVER order from them again.
By far, that's propbably the best haul for me. Dunno why but only their clothing works for me. Thank you guys
My first time ordering from ASOS, I had to pay custom TWICE to different couriers, DHL and CANADA POST. For both, I paid like 45$ on an order worth about 80$
How stupid I was, to think of ordering again, the second order came and had to pay 43$. This store is a TOTAL joke.
With how much I love to shop, I am never ever shopping with them again.
The company SUCKS, the clothings aren't even in high quality anyways.
If i could give a zero i would. Worst service I have ever received. Taking no responsibility what so ever for the use of the delivery service provider continuously passing the buck back and forth. Will never buy anything from this company if this is how they treat people who pay good money for something they have never received.
Terrible customer service. Advertised on the website "free shipping to Canada". DONT listen to that. I had to pay an extra $42.09 at the post office, almost half of what I spent on my bridesmaid dress. The lady at the post office said this is not the first time someone had to go in to pay customs on an order from ASOS. I emailed customer service 3 times and got the same exact generic answer from each one. They all said they can't control the custom charges, but if my package says FREE delivery to Canada like it said, there are NO CUSTOMS. Clearly my package didn't come from Canada, but that is FALSE advertising and they won't admit that they did wrong.
Everytime I buy an item of clothing on here it arrives with something different. Whether it be the colour or the fact that a size 8/10 would only fit my niece who's 13! I've used them for years and now so disappointed and fed up! I'm a size 8/10 and the clothes never fit me properly!
They never delivered my package and stopped responding to me when I emailed them. It's a waste of money.
I ordered something on June 23,2020 and expected to arrive June 30,2020, didn't arrive on date and was pushed until July 2,2020. I live in a apartment complex but each apartment is separated and lettered A-Z & not only did they input my address wrong, the company that shipped it delivered it to the wrong door with NO proof! So I proceed to call the shipping company where I found out what happened, they told me to contact ASOS which I did and they told me to retrieve it from the wrong doorstep that it was delivered to. How can I retrieve an item when 1)no photo proof was taken upon delivery 2)if these neighbors would actually fess up and say they took it?! ASOS HANDLED THIS SO POORLY. The fact I reordered the same item in worry of my size selling out before a response is so frustrating. I just want a refund/or store credit at this point!
Used to be huge fan but a few months they stopped answering
I returned some items a few months ago, when I verified I saw they never refunded me
Now I am nervous because I returned some item a few weeks ago, i don't think they will process this one either, they simply do not answer any messages, live chat is off
Order was due to come in 2 weeks ago. They promised a refund and then took back their promise next day
DO NOT, DO NOT Order from ASOS. I placed a big £700 order which was never delivered, in their words, "never left the warehouse". They told me the refund would be in the account within 24 hours! I have been chasing my refund for 7 days now via email and phone wasting my energy and time (!), calling every day to be told they will request again AGAIN and AGAIN and Customer Service guys cannot do anything and you can't even speak to the "mysterious" refund office! Guess what, they put £100 in the account but not full £700! Thank you very much, do you think I'm a charity? Robbing people who think won't bother. Big company but dodgy and will take every chance to rob you with their mystery backoffice staff and "can't help" customer service. I'm still chasing my money! I will now contact my bank, trading standards and seek extra compensation from robbing bastards and I will WILL NEVER ORDER AGAIN AND FOR YOUR OWN SANITY DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING. Order from Missguided, PLT, a lot more reliable and caring.
I've had so many issues with orders and customer service. Twice I've received clothing that was previously worn/returned, one was also the wrong size and the other was COVERED in deodorant (ew). Customer service clearly just skims over messages. Last time I contacted them with an order issue, I specifically said "I DO NOT want to cancel my order" and explained that the order contained now out-of-stock merch. I got an auto-reply stating "sorry it is too late to cancel your order"... and nothing helpful. Takes days to hear back from support. Delivery is ALWAYS past the delivery "on or before" date. Anything ASOS brand is basically a toss-up in terms of quality. Only worth it if you buy during a major sale. I'd never pay full price. They also sell clothing from some really crappy/shady other brands (Like PrettyLittleThing and Missguided).
Do not buy from this store unless you plan to keep everything you get because the returns system is a convoluted mess designed to keep you from getting a refund. I filed an item I received as faulty and began the process to return it. I contacted customer service to make sure they would refund me the postage. They confirmed that they would because i had marked it as a faulty item. When the item arrived they refused to refund me because they said it hadn't been processed as a faulty item. I showed them the original email and explained that I had marked the item as faulty as well as proof of purchase for the postage but they refused to refund me.
I purchased shoes at the end of March 2020 from ASOS (when COVID started) and I left my apartment for 2 months. When I came back and tried on the shoes, they were too big. I contacted ASOS asking if they could do an exchange (not even a refund) and after following up multiple times they said they "don't do exchanges anymore". I'm super disappointed because of everything going on and once again, I'm not even asking for a refund I'm just asking for an exchange.
I've never experienced such a hassle for online purchases. First-order and didn't receive my package, when contacted customer service noted that the delivery address number and zip code was typed incorrectly and they told me that it is my responsibility to retrieve the package at the wrong address. No refund, no resend after multiple emails requesting that (1 month of back and forth). Waste of money and time. Stay away from them.
I order a grey sweatshirt and grey jogger for my husband, when I placed my order you can clearly see in the picture and in the description line that the both items were grey. When I received my order I got a grey sweatshirt and a Black Jogger(sweatpants) When I told them I received the wrong item they just told me to send it back and it will take 18 days to replace it. I'm going to Italy and I don't have 18 days to wait for this pants. A sorry don't help. Do not order from this store this happened to me twice already but for sure it won't be a 3rd time.In the labels you can clearly see that both were ordered in a grey color. I do believe that they didn't have the color I order, instead of asking me or notify me, they just send it, since it's so difficult to return or get you money back they figure no body have time for that they just going to stay with the order. I really dislike this website never again.
35-40% due at delivery which was not advertised at time of sale. Sizing recommendations per website are awful; products came incredibly oversized. In order to return them for money back you have to pay duties a second time, at roughly the same rates. Total additive cost 60-80% of sticker price if return is required... Not Worth It!.
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.
