Refuses to give an invoice.
December 19, 2022

Goods were delivered on time, yet company refuses to give an invoice. Tried talking with them 4 times, each time they think of different reason why they can't give me an invoice.

We have been trying to return an item we cannot use because the plug is Australian (they are an australian website) and we are in USA. No listing of this issue on their site or product or during purchase. SEVERAL emails and days later they keep giving me the runaround! We put their return information on the package as they asked and at the post office we were told to pay $78 for customs plus shipping! We went home and emailed them and several emails later they offer to have it picked up by courier. (huh?) well ok and now 3 times they have asked for my email! And my address! They have all this! Last email now requested the contents of the parcel, size, shape, weight, value and name of product we purchased! We have had it. That reeks of poor business!

Can't imagine how anyone could have a good experience with them. Ordered one product and it never got to me. Sent a complaint saying that it had not reached me, and after a week or two, they got back to me to say they were going to send out another. That one didn't get to me either, so after more messing around with customer 'service', finally got a refund after a couple of months. Avoid!

Crooks
February 6, 2018

Agree with everything other 1 star reviews have said. Claim item is in stock until after ordered then in dispatch but awaiting stock ( that does not even make sense!). Then refuse refund as item has entered the dospatch process (although still not in stock! And been waiting 1 month). All the while the front end web page continues to list item as in stock to unsuspecting potential customers.

Zero stars if i could!

Terrible Experience
April 20, 2018

Terrible Experience. Have spent two weeks trying to track a package that was ordered one month ago. After constant stalling on the part of The Hut and my many repeated requests for update I was told that the package was delivered. It wasn't. I have contacted my Credit card company. Wish I had read these reviews earlier. Apparently this is a pattern with The Hut. Similar reviews on all other review sites. Avoid.

Probably a scam website
March 29, 2021

Don't even think about buy from this horrible website, I ordered shoes a month ago and still, they didn't ship them, the customer service is poor.
I asked for a refund and they said they can't refund me (and they still didn't ship it).
So please go to others they don't worth the time.

DVD scam
January 14, 2016

Same happened to me, bought DVD set and it doesn't work in America - you need to be in region 2 for it to play, whatever the hell that means. They won't refund anything and won't let me write a review. Their site is misrepresented with all their helpful questions and returns etc but none of it is true, customer service is awful and I feel scammed.

Criminals
July 26, 2016

I too have been taken advantage of by these criminals. I ordered the Barbie DVD set for my 5-year-old grand-daughter. Imagine the disappointment when we found these Region 2 DVD's do not work in the USA.
The.hut.com knowingly shipped these to a USA address. They knew the DVD's would not work and they will not refund the purchase price.
I will try to contact my Credit Card Company and see if they can rescue me from my stupidity.

Terrible
December 7, 2015

My account was canceled after i made a purchase, never received my purchase, just managed to ruin my christmas as now I have no present. Customer service was appalling, I had to email over 5 times to only get a response that they would do nothing about my situation and that they basically didn't care. Very upsetting, terrible experience. Purchase your stuff somewhere else

Placed an order this morning, payment was taken. Received an email some 8 hours later saying they had cancelled the order as they don't deliver to business addresses. Really? This was going to be a gift but I may not be able to get it on time now as you took all day to decide that you wouldn't fulfil the order. So bad.

I purchased a DVD set of a TV show series but didn't realize the set "might not be vIewable outside of Europe". I live in the United States. It was an honest mistake which was not discovered until I opened the set and put in the first DVD. I contacted service and was told "sorry... but they couldn't accept the DVD back as it had been opened". I'm out $74.00. Very poor customer service. I will never buy from the Hut again and will stick to Amazon whose return policies are more customer satisfaction oriented.

Unethical Scammers
March 26, 2018

Order says "in stock" and next day delivery... but as soon as you place the order and they have your money... the items are not in stock. Its March and the status said my order should be delivered by June... lmao... Do not even bother with this company.

Scam alert!
October 20, 2016

Worst company ever. A bi-product of socialist Europe and the reason why they are going down in a ball of flames.

A month to receive a bloody Blu-Ray and I just disputed the charge with my bank as I never received what I ordered.

When calling 00-44-1-606-338-197 customers get a voice recording without the possibility of leaving a message. When emailing *******@thehutgroup.com, no response is received.

Really pathetic so-called organization. Planning to sue and make a police report.

Please spread your bad experience with these crooks on social meadia and everywhere. Hopefully, we can alert possible victims!

Can not believe a company in this day and age does not have a telephone number I can contact them on, with a simple enquiry or a complaint.

I ordered two tablets. I placed an order, had to verify my address for some reason before they would even place the order. I sent them the documents and it took them 72 hours before they dispatched the items. I waited and gave them the benefit of the doubt as I work in a Complaints Department. Finally they sent the items and there was only one tablet in the parcel. I confirmed with the delivery agent (Yodel) that was the package and there was no other items.

I am furious as there is no number I can contact them on as they don't have one and I have to wait days before I get a response. Take my advise and go somewhere else. I hope they can sort my issue within the week.

I wish I could say something good but quite frankly I was sold a pair of expensive Bench boxer shorts and they were mis-stitched. Told the company but they said because of the passage of time they weren't bothered to replace or refund them. I know the law states you can't sell faulty goods but they don't care. Cheap and cheerful but what is the point if they sell something that is faulty and not fit for the purpose.

They have the worst customer service ever possible. They takes ages to reply and they don't even try to solve your problem. I was sent an awful smelling perfume which I have been using for ages and I knew that it wasn't right. I texted them, called them, emailed them. They response with 1 email and did not try to solve my problem. Do not order ever from them. I would give a -5 start, if could.

I've ordered many times but never again. The first time I've needed to complain I'm met with silence. Once I found how to send them a message about the incorrectly described product, I sat back and waited...
A week later I have unsubscribed from the list and binned the item.

I was so stoked to purchase from this company and ordered several hundred dollars worth of merchandise during their Black Friday sale. After 2 weeks of no word about my order, I searched to find a customer service number or email and found there was none. I tried to communicate via my account and found that I was locked out of my account. With no customer service to turn to... who could I get to reset my account? NO ONE. They just have my money in limbo with no word about my order.
I thought to contact Facebook just to receive robot like responses. I begged to have a HUMAN email me and let me know exactly what was going on and they said they couldn't do that. So ridiculous. I am still out of money and products and its been a month. Total scammers.

The Worst!
June 1, 2017

Bought a dryer from The Hut and shipped to me in the US and product can only be used in UK? You would think as a courtesy they would have made me aware that this dryer did not have dual voltage options. Why would I buy something I could not use?

Buyer Beware

Only one star because i could not give them a 0.

Date of experience: June 1, 2017
