I ordered a washing machine about 10 days ago. It was supposed to arrive in 1 or 2 business days. From the day I ordered that would have been either Friday or Monday. Late on Monday I got a message that the item wasn't in stock (a little late for a notice like that, right?!). They promised delivery on Monday a week later. I was home all day to receive the delivery. Nothing came. No news, no info, just a blank tracking link. After leaving a message on Tuesday (because you can't reach them after 5PM) all we got was "item out of stock again". Terrible customer experience! I wasted a whole day waiting for absolutely no reason and I still do not have a washing machine. The order has now been cancelled and I've gone to a different company.
Worst Customer service
Iam finding it so hard to deal with Kogan! I don't even have a parcel that I paid for as it been lost in the TOLL Courier. They've put me on to "Costway" who doesn't even understand english or what the hell I'm requesting. This has been the worst experience. I just want to talk to someone in Australia. I basically need them to contact Toll and give permission to leave my parcel without signature as requested by TOLL... TOLL has lost my package Anyways which is another thing I need help with. I'm about to tell them to send it back (where ever it is) and never deal With kogan ever ever EVER again. Customer service all round has been terrible. And I still dont have a product I paid for. OH and they can't even find my order details. Bad service all round indeed
I ordered a Kogan brand laptop, which began to malfunction within days of arrival via post. I contacted support via email to enact the 14-day Change of Mind returns policy. They lied and said it only applied to technical issues. After days of delays, they gave me a return ticket and I returned the laptop in the mail. I was told I would be contacted to discuss suitable and preferable solutions. Instead, I was just sent the exact same laptop with my customizations and the issues were not resolved as it malfunctioned within fifteen minutes. Kogan is making it as difficult as possible to get a refund.
I can't access my account as I "accessed my account in a new device". Contacted Kogan, after many emails later, told me they would refer the issue to their IT team. A month later, issue not resolved yet and now no replies to my emails at all. I still have $200+ money on my Kogan account that's why I want access to my account.
I had to return an unopened phone to Kogan. No phone support, no chat. Had to use email where I was mislead about my refund. In the end I only received 80% store credit, had to return the phone out of my pocket. They charged me over $500 to return a brand new unopened phone. Do not buy from Kogan.
I bought a chickens coop on the 28th August which I still have not received. When I contacted kogan they at first responded but stopped responding after a while. I escalated to Kogan to mediated but they are slow and useless. Sends useless emails but end of the day I still do not have the product and no info received about when it will be received.
Bought the water flosser.
Waited for 1 month, the charger doesn't even connect to the flosser.
Lol. They also charged me for 1 month of membership that I didn't want, but you subscribe when you buy something.
I know is cheap stuff, but they simply don't work.
So better to spend the money somewhere else
I am currently going thru some problems with an ebike I bought 8 months ago. A fault has developed and I have had a major F around trying to get a satisfactory outcome. Basically I am being offered $600 instead of the value it would cost to replace it. They no longer stock my model (says a lot there) and refuse to give replacement value. So to replace what I have in the current WA market, it will cost $1450. So I will be out almost $1000 when u factor the $107 P&P I will be losing. I will be going to ACCC next and will never spend another $ with Kogan (an Aussie group btw). I'm sure they were better before the fraud case of 2020 that cost them $350K in fines. I'm sure there will be more, after browsing the ACCC lists against them. In the interest of balance, they can be helpful, but only up to a point. A low point
Bought a mattress, courier company can't delivery as they can't find my address. Have been living there for over 1 year. When I ring the courier company to confirm my address I can not get to speak to a real person (all automated). Asked for Kogan's help to confirm my address. Have been in an email war for almost 48 hours now with Kogan and now they want to charge me for return and restocking fees because their courier company is useless! No happy ending for me. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND KOGAN at all! Better going to your local store and buy from there. At least you know you will be able to speak to professionals
I bought something from Kogan online - fully paid at checkout. But I decided to cancel the order because of the long delivery time. So a credit of $25.99 was in my account but the credit has an expiry date! I have never heard of such policy and I dont think it is fair for such as it is my money and it is not a credit from Kogan. I dont think I will deal with Kogan ever again!
I am trying to contact them from 1st of June. So far 5 emails, no reply from koan. Very disappointing. I need to return the item so that i can reorder the correct item. What kind of a service are you providing? You take time to send unwanted emails all the time, but cannot get back to us when we need your service.
I received a coupon code too early, and it was expired. Speaking with Kogan employees is generally a pain, and before I received my plan last year, we had to speak every day for about a month! It occurs frequently among Kogan employees, but Akshay makes it simple and clear. He updated the coupon code and automatically entered it for me.
Brought 6 Kogan brand items, only the mixer still works. Phones are rubbish, customer service as bad.
Stuck with a dodgy phone that's only 14months old. It replaced the two faulty ones before it.
After the first two Kogan wouldn't exchange it for another Brand "That's not something we do!).
You can't call Kogan they only have a recording. They have an old un accessible email address of mine for my account. Each time i send a customer service request it tells me to check my un accessible email address. It wont even allow me to change it to a current email address.
Ordered a computer monitor that was on sale from them, took them 3 weeks to ship and when they did they charged me full price as it was no longer on sale. On top of that, they charged another $12 for kogan first as my 2 week trial had expired, and another $18 for shipping. When I asked to refund both the monitor and the "subscription" they said since there was nothing wrong with the monitor they could not refund it. As for kogan first, they said it was under their terms and services that they also do not refund this "service" ever, under any circumstances. So I suggest people stay far, far away from them and wait for the bbb to give them what's coming.
Purchased 2 new Ergolux Galway Office Chairs (Grey) - one was ripped in 2 places on the back of the chair. This is the reply from their Customer Care Team: (request #*******)

Hi,
Thank you for the email.
I'm sorry to see that this chair has two small rips in it, like you, I'd also feel very disappointed.
If you're happy to keep the chair and find a way to patch the holes I'd be happy to offer a partial refund of $10.
This $10 can cover the cost of sourcing needle and thread to tightly weave around the hole and close it.
Covering the patches with a small amount of super glue will also help to prevent further ripping.
Please let me know if you'd like to proceed with this remedy so that I can make the necessary arrangements.
Kindest regards,
Matthew M

I bought this item for $29 with free shipping on 11th of April 2019. The quality of the sound was not that great. It is also not so easy to recharge the battery. The recharge cable is not a standard USB cable. You need to buy a rechargeable battery with the right usb connection. In addition, Kogan service desk never answered my enquiry. So Beware of this product.
I ordered item which supposed to come in 7 days max, i wait for 2 weeks, and they said it's already delivered but i didnt get item, they don't respond to my emails, dont use this marketplace if you dont want to be disappointed!
I selected a box believing I would get a 5 day free trial for free shipping 5 days later they stole $99.00 from my credit card for a membership that offers nothing, no response back, email spamming, dogs
I ordered nonstick pan and got my order on 30th of july, i filled my card details for that. Everything was ok i got my product but i checked my account, it shows they deducted $59 on 14aug, i didn't order anything. Customers dont fill there details so that they can deduct whenever they want to. $#*! website
Answer: Not only rubbish customer service, they won't give you a refund if your product doesn't arrive. - Check these out - https://www.accc.gov.au/media-release/kogan-in-court-for-alleged-false-or-misleading-discount-advertisements https://www.choice.com.au/shopping/consumer-rights-and-advice/your-rights/articles/kogan-returns-and-refunds-issues I learnt the hard way so save your safe the time and stress and go elsewhere.
Answer: Stay away from Kogan - I think you have by default signed up for some crap Kogan First Club - if you didn't unsubscibe within 14 days, they then hit you with a membership fee
Answer: No they just say they will get back to you eventually but they never do
