*Update* I am updating my previous post to say my return was Accepted and my credit posted without me having to contact them. Perhaps it was just a glitch I am still willing to visit this website. I have shopped this website for years and loved it. Now shipping is slow. I have yet to see a recent return processed. Customer service used to be beyond excellent. Updates when shipped. Updates when returns received. Updates when credit issued. I am currently waiting on my return. If there is an issue I will not shop here again. Unfortunate because I really did love this website.
Quality of the items, even high brand items is inadequate. I purchased an YSL bag that costs few thousands of dollars and the belt just fall apart while I was wearing it. I have emailed them and their service recovery was: send the bag and we will see what we can do, asking me to send them a bag for few weeks to fix. Unprofessional, unsatisfying, not checking the retailers of HIGH brand products. I can't give zero stars so it's one.

See photos of authentic and counterfeit sambas from net a Porter. Shameless ripoff. Laces, insoles, no ankle padding, missing double lace holes at ankle. Obvious fakes.
This company is using fake reviews but with real people offering money/commission by doing so. I tried this job and they fooled me, they have a website named "net-a-porter.vip" which you create an account with your phone number and then boosting reviews by taking task and each task give you comission. Anyways, I didn't wanna continue with this work and they never gave me my money back that I had to make an affect in the data system to boost reviews. I hope this helps. Don't listen to them!
After a disappointing experience with a purchase, I feel compelled to share my story to caution potential customers. I bought a damaged leather good and immediately reached out to the company for a resolution. Despite providing clear evidence of the defect, including photos and the fact that the item had never been worn (evidenced by the attached tags), my efforts to rectify the situation turned into an ordeal.
Over the course of several months, I wrote to customer service more than ten times, each time hoping for a resolution that never came. The communication from their side was painfully slow and, ultimately, unhelpful. The final blow came when they declared they would not refund or exchange the item, effectively leaving me with a defective product and out of pocket.
This experience has not only resulted in financial loss but has also significantly diminished my trust in the company. Their failure to provide basic customer service and stand behind their products is alarming and should serve as a warning to others.
To those considering a purchase from this company, I urge you to think twice. The lack of accountability and customer support I experienced suggests that your money might be better spent elsewhere, where customer satisfaction and service quality are actually prioritized.

Tip for consumers:
Be cautious. They have good items but if it doesn't fit you might be screwed returning it.
I ordered 3 items. I received 2 items one of which I was not keen on. I called to advise and asked if the 3rd item was sent separately. NAP advised everything should have been together. The girl said she will set up an investigation and arranged a return. I was waiting for contact, made another call and was told investigation was not set up and she would personally do this, I still had no contact and called again, the advisor wanted me to send a picture of the box. I told him that was returned with the item I returned. He again said he will expedite. Again no contact so called again and was told takes 2-3 weeks, spoke to alia manager who said will expedite again and send email. I received an email 3 hours later from someone else with someone full address name and mobile number. I called the person to advise DPA BREACH. I spoke to NPA who wasn't bothered but then I got another email about me returning another item. I am lost as to what is going on. I just want my refund and never to order from them again. Ridiculous customer service who understands nothing clearly! I have this persons personal data and they simply do not care as a company!
Purchased sandals; seemed to fit when received; when I went to wear a month later the lining completely separated from the shoe.
Couldn't return through app due to time after purchase so emailed.
No reply.
Emailed again; no reply.
Calle dthem and they said they had emailed me return (they did not - it was never received).
One full day later I received a return authorisation.
I sent with DHL - they received (according to tracking) but status on account remained unchanged and said pending receipt of return.
5 days later I message customer service - they tell me they cannot find the order number for my email.
I resend the same detail and they find it.
I was advised to have 'patience' and that it takes 10 days from receipt of goods to issue refund (website says 3).
They tell me ti be assured they will contact me when a refund is issued (obviously not feeling 'assured').
Was told they needed ti check if the goods were faulty when I received them (they have no marks/ never worn)….bla bla bla - nothing
I still wait.
They CS is rude; communication is non existent- vastly different business to 12 months or so ago.
I will now avoid (and pray for refund of my money)
What happens to them? They used to be so reliable.

Net a porter is a high end designer online store, so not unreasonable to expect excellent customer service. Absolutely not the case here. They are happy to sell stuff to the customer, that is not a problem, but try returning it for a refund is where the trouble starts. They are uncommunicative, and totally incompetent when you ring to enquire after a week why your refund status is not showing on your account or even that the item has returned to the warehouse. The agents x3 all promise faithfully to look into, escalate and investigate what is going on and assure you that they will prioritise your concerns and email you back. Non of this happens. If you go to Trustpilot their negative 1* reviews now outweigh their positive ones. Avoid them at all costs or if you are in the same situation as myself, still waiting for some communication after 2wks about a refund, start a case with Resolver or the Trading Standards Ombudsman or a chargeback claim.
If you want an online designer retailer who are efficient and have got their act together, look no further than MATCHES- don't use this bunch of cowboys.

Way over priced, even compared to the designer websites itself! Was unaware that it is final sale. Original price is much more expensive than what the designer is selling for & then even if they do discount it is still over double priced. Also bad & rude customer service & was not willing to help. Buy from other websites!
I am writing to express my profound dissatisfaction with the lack of follow-up and response from your company regarding my recent request for a refund or replacement of the Bottega Veneta Andiamo Bag, order number 2208ZDPF*******M, which I purchased on Thursday,24 August 2023
It has been 1 month since I initially reached out to your customer service team regarding the issue I encountered with the Bottega Veneta Andiamo Bag. To summarize the situation, the bag suffered extensive damage after minimal use and the leather is not as expected quality and did not meet the standards that are consistently associated with Bottega. I promptly contacted your customer service department on the 2nd of January 2024 to request either a refund or a replacement for the defective product.
Despite my efforts and patience, I have not received any acknowledgment of my request, nor have I been provided with an update on the status of my complaint. This lack of communication and delay in addressing the issue is extremely disappointing and goes against the high standards of service that I have come to expect from Net-A-Porter.
I have taken the step of involving legal counsel. I have CC'ed my lawyer on this email, and we are prepared to initiate legal action if necessary. It is regrettable that it has come to this point, but after 1 month of no response, I have no other recourse.
I would appreciate a clear explanation of the status of my refund or replacement request, as well as a timeline for when I can expect a resolution.
Deliverd the finest in both product,wonderful customer service and fantastic selection.I was so impressed got exactly what I ordered.Thankyou!
I have had the most awful experience with Net a porter and will never shop there again - I would strongly advise going to matches instead which provide an exemplary service. I bought a Saint Laurent tote for over £1000 only for 8 weeks later the stitching from the handle to unravel and it become unusable. This happened in November, I offered to exchange or return and re buy the bag as this was obviously faulty - net a porter initially ignored multiple emails and calls (of up to an hour at a time) and then eventually refused any reasonable help- finally agreeing to take the bag for 2 months to assess whether they would repair- this is not luxury retail nor service. I have given up and am going to foot the repair bill myself. Do not buy from saint laurent it is not luxury quality and do not order from Net a porter- should something go wrong you are on your own.

The absolute worst experience! The item I ordered 2 months ago was sent to a location 6hours away from me. I called and requested a refund. Since the representative was unable to resolve the issue, I was transferred to someone who introduced themselves as a manager. I was told I could expect a refund within 10 business days. 2 months and multiple phone calls later I still have not received the refund because apparently the shipping carrier still has their item. A business that sells luxury items for a large profit margin should have better resolution for their delivery issues.
They have sent me an item, but UPS lost the package. When I tried to figure out what happened, customer service agent was simply rude and aggressive on the phone. After many calls, it arrived but damaged. I have sent it back immediately. Warehouse received it on September, 1st.
No refund has been issued. Upon contacting the customer service, more rude replies with zero intention to actually help.
Needless to say it is September 12 and I am still waiting for the refund.
I will never shop here again and neither should you

Most unreliable service. Departments do not communicate with each other. I ordered same day on Friday. 5 days later still no delivery and no refund.
This has happened so many times now.
Shoes porte & paire which I ordered from that website fall apart after 2 weeks of wearing them. This is not a quality you would expect for sandals for 200£, but rather maybe 10£ The Net-a-Porter customer service doesn't accept my request to return the faulty items. I would avoid ordering from that website, as it is waste of money. Attached images of the shoes after 4 times of wearing them only!
Tip for consumers:
Don’t use that website

I am a long time customer here and I am happy to say I will be taking my business elsewhere!
To claim to be pro-peace and then taking off an Israeli designer! (and by keeping one that's Pro Hamas).
I look forward to watching your company fail in the stock markets because you just lost most of your cliental.

The customer service is terrible, they don't respond in a timely way to messages and emails, and I have lost money because of them. The way some of them speak to you, they treat you like a child - very rude, strict and stubborn language which is totally unexpected for a luxury retailer.
It also takes ridiculously long for net a porter to process/ship orders and refunds.
My husband purchased some items for me. I returned all the items. The boots were packaged separately, however I combined the earrings and necklace and we only received a refund for the boots and the necklace. Since I packaged and shipped at the UPS store which is on camera there is no way that they did not receive the earrings. As a news anchor, I will be doing a story on this. We all deserve an answer!
Tip for consumers:
PLEASE READ ALL REVIEWS ON GOOGLE AND THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU SITE!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
I returned a pair of Gucci pants on the 5th, today is the 17th and although they were received at the Netaporter "warehouse" 4 business days ago, I "won't get a refund for 2 more weeks" someone in bookkeeping is paying for yesterdays inventory with todays purchase?
Tip for consumers:
Be sure you want the item- the refund takes a month
Not sure if they gonna do anything about this, they basically asked for our tax number but never insert in the invoice. The local custom charges like crazy.
Think 3 times if you are sending to a country with a bad tax system like Indonesia.
Items came quick but was shipped from hongkong. Box and shoes were damaged. Disappointing from a supposedly premium site.
You're not delivered, they don't care… and you've lost your money… after three weeks of "you will be delivered tomorrow…" that's what I learned this morning… do not order and you'll save time and money.
Not sure what has happened... I ordered an expensive gift for my daughter, I paid premier, it should have arrived on Thursday, I'm still chasing, they say they attempted to deliver it today but nobody was in! Well that is a lie, I have been in all day and have a ring doorbell that records all activity! You can't get through on the numbers, if you request a call back it is from NYC! I am so dissappointed! I just want my refund - problem is you have to wait for this! Shocking! Do not order from them!
After reading the rest of the reviews I can't say I am surprised now at my experience. Ordered premier delivery, didn't arrive, called up twice and I was informed it would be sent today day, still not arrived and I am going on holiday tonight. Don't even attempt to reach premier by phone, chat is always off now too. They are beyond incompetent as a company and have lost their way. They need a new GM/MD & head of warehouse & customer service. I'll be taking my custom to farfetch or selfridges.
